Trivia[]
- When the Mr. Men and Little Misses shout "Surprise!":
- (Error) Little Miss Curious's nose is orange instead of its usual yellow.
- Mr. Funny may have spoken for the first and only time in this series, as he is seen shouting "Surprise!" along with the others. This is also the only episode where Mr. Tall and Little Miss Curious speak outside of the segments where they do
- All the characters (except Little Miss Calamity who makes no season 2 appearance) are present in this episode.
- Mr. Stubborn is the only one not to speak.
- It's unknown how Little Miss Scary, Mr. Nervous, Mr. Bounce, and Little Miss Whoops got on the cake machine when they ran out the house.
- It's possible that Mr. Nosey and Mr. Small pulled them to the cake machine just before it took off.
- Mr. Rude is the only character absent from the giant cake surprise, which makes sense considering his rude behaviour and how he hates Little Miss Sunshine.
- Realistically, Mr. Grumpy and Mr. Stubborn should've also been absent as well, as Mr. Grumpy also hates Little Miss Sunshine.
- Mr. Bounce was shown in a rabbit costume.
- This is the third episode where a birthday is celebrated, the first was "Birthday" and the second was "Gifts".
- The scene in the opening where Mr. Bump gets crushed by an alien spaceship and the beginning of the advertisement for the Oh My Goodness Goggles were leaked over a month prior on Keith Holven's animation demo reel on YouTube.
- This is the last episode where Mr. Rude farts.
- This is the second episode of season 2 where Joey D'Auria re-recorded a line of Mr. Rude's in the UK version, which was done to accommodate a British term.
- Mr. Nosey and Mr. Small are seen throughout the episode together, but in the "Oh My Goodness Goggles" advertisement, there were times when Mr. Small appeared, but not Mr. Nosey:
- When Miss Scary confronts him for ruining her surprise present with Mr. Grumpy, Mr. Small was seen walking to her without Mr. Nosey.
- When Mr. Small opens Mr. Nervous' door and delivers the closing line to his advert, he is also seen without Mr. Nosey.
- The only times Mr. Nosey appeared in the advert was when he wanted to see the inside of the present (a pony) and when Mr. Small gives Mr. Nervous the "Oh My Goodness Goggles" from behind the latter's sofa.
Dub Edits[]
- Any instance of "vacation" is changed to "holiday".
- "I don't suppose you have any beans!?" is simply shortened by omitting the first word.
- Mr. Rude says "tin of beans" in the US and "can of beans" in the UK.
- "How about pea soup? Then you can go." is "How about some pea soup? Then you can go.".
- "Best news I've ever heard!" is shortened by having "I've" changed to "I".
- There is no slight pause in "Oh, keep your Tiny Cabin, Mr. Small. I am happy where I am."
- "And no one does that better than the Mr. Men and Little Misses!" has "that" swapped out for "it".
- "Graze" is "skin" in the UK.
- Mr. Nervous does not whimper when he sees Miss Whoops take Miss Scary's crate into the house.
- Mr. Bounce doesn't scream and laugh when Miss Scary scares him.
- "Not that I'm about to walk into a surprise party or anything." has "about" changed to "going".
Errors[]
- As stated in the trivia, Little Miss Curious' nose is orange instead of yellow when shouting "Surprise".
