Music

Music is a Season 1 episode in The Mr. Men Show.

Synopsis

A tuba playing Mr. Strong shows his softer side; Cacophony ensues when Mr. Noisy gets a drum set; and Little Miss Whoops and Mr. Bump make not-so-sweet music together.

Plots

Miss Helpful, Mr. Strong and Mr. Bounce's Plot: Miss Helpful teaches Mr. Strong and Mr. Bounce how to play the tuba. But then turns out to be a disaster.

Mr. Noisy and Mr. Quiet's Plot : Mr. Noisy plays his drums really really loud. It gives Mr. Quiet a huge headache. Soon, Mr. Quiet goes and complains to him but then Mr. Noisy says,"Will you keep it down, Mr. Quiet?! I'm practicing!"
Mr. Bounce's Second Plot: Mr Bounce sings The Boogies Got Me. (Not in the UK)

Mr. Nervous' Plot: Mr. Nervous imagines that he's a fly and hopes to not be eaten by a spider. He is really auditioning for Mr. Tickle's band.

Mr. Persnickety, Miss Naughty and Mr. Rude's Plot: Mr. Persnickety conducts the Dillydale Orchestra. However, Mr. Rude and Miss Naughty keep giving interruptions. Near the end, Miss Naughty put the bubbles on each of the Mr. Men and Little Misses instruments, causing them to float up. Then, Miss Naughty bangs her cymbals to cause the bubbles to pop. The Mr. Men and Little Misses fall down and the water falls on Miss Naughty, causing her to be washed away.

Mr. Happy, Miss Sunshine, Mr. Grumpy, Mr. Strong and Mr. Scatterbrain's Plot: Mr. Happy and Miss Sunshine host a show called "What Do You Know About Music?" with the contestants Mr. Grumpy, Mr. Strong and Mr. Scatterbrain. After the last question, Mr. Scatterbrain's monkey attacks the studio and the segment ends.

Remarks

Miss Calamity is clearly not a good singer, as everyone but Mr. Bump runs away. However, Mr. Bump probably likes the music, since he gives a thumbs up.
There was no movement when the shot was on the Mr. Men and Little Misses at the theater.
The sound and movements on Miss Calamity playing is off:
- When she first played it, she plays it from short to long strings, but the keys are played from deep to high. From a musican perspective, long strings makes the notes low, while short strings make them high.
- Her hand gestures from the second time are reused cycles, so they don't match up the notes.
It seems that Miss Naughty poured bubble liquid in all of the other instruments, even though the scene only showed her only doing Mr. Rude's.
Mr. Rude has trouble trying to blow the tuba when it was filled with bubble liquid. Though it still would've made sound, just gargled.
Miss Calamity's harp is shown blowing bubbles. But this would be unlikey as most the other instruments are ones that can be blown, while hers is only one aside from Miss Naughty's that is not a pipe-based.
