Trivia

• This episode premiered in two half-hour parts over two days. This is one of two FOP episodes to premiere over multiple days (the other being Wishology!). In subsequent airings, this episode is usually aired in its entirety.
• Although already seen on the sign of the Camp Learn-a-Torium. In earlier episodes, Flappy Bob takes on a different clown appearance in this film.
• After being defeated, Sanderson mutters "Oh, Smoof" which is what Norm the Genie says upon being defeated.
• This is the first time Timmy's romantic "rivals" Tootie and Trixie appear onscreen together, although neither has any dialogue besides Tootie's single spoken musical line.
• Like Abra-Catastrophe!, Channel Chasers, Fairy Idol, Jimmy Timmy Power Hour, When Nerds Collide!, and The Jerkinators!, an alternative version split into 3 parts also exists with redesigned title cards. This was primarily designed for international broadcasters such as the BBC, who sometimes aired the show inside another show (such as Dick & Dom in da Bungalow). However on occasion the BBC has aired the full length special as a separate program.
  • On Paramount + UK and Ireland, this movie is split into 2 parts instead.

• This is the last time that Flappy Bob's Learn-A-Torium, as well as Happy Peppy Gary and Betty themselves, appear in an episode of The Fairly OddParents mostly because Flappy Bob goes back to being a clown at the end of the episode, and the fact that Gary and Betty most likely quit after Timmy or his godparents made the Learn-A-Torium more fun.
• In the original story, Flappy Bob was not real, he was just a disguised Imaginary Gary trying to get revenge on Timmy. This is revealed in one of the songs posted on the Scribd website under Fred Seibert's portfolio, which posts several of the scripts in their original form.
• There are bloopers (in animated form, of course) for this movie/episode.
• During the bloopers, the scene where Mark Chang appears, it was the scene for the Pixie Rap part of the Reprise Remix song. Sanderson talked in this scene of the bloopers, but it was in his boring voice of Ben Stein rather than the rapping voice of Redman.
• Flappy Bob is said to be 37 years old and that according to this episode, he was born in 1965. This can be a possibility that this episode takes place in 2002, three years before the episode actually airs, and that every episode before "Timmy's Secret Wish!" may take place in this same year.
• In the bloopers, it is revealed that Jorgen has a somewhat British accent after his mouth got caught in a mouse trap.
• Mark Chang appears in the bloopers (though the director says he is not in the musical), along with Juandissimo.
• This is the only musical episode in the entire series, with 11 songs, not counting the theme song.
• This episode is dedicated to Ray Charles who died a year before this episode premiered.
• It is unlikely, but one of Wanda's friends seen at the Fairy World Diner might have been the same one from Dog's Day Afternoon.

Allusions

Famous event is parodied

• New Years Ball Drop - The scene where the fairies were counting down to summer parodied the famous traditional event in Times Square, New York City during New Year's Eve.
• Godzilla - During Kids Just Being Kids song a reptile looking like Godzilla can be seen destroying Dimmsdale with kids destorying town.
• 2000 USA Presidential Election - Cosmo's remark about Timmy being the President of Kid World everywhere but Florida is still voting, making a reference to the errors the state had in the Elections.
• Saint Basil's Cathedral, Mount Fuji, and Leaning Tower of Pisa - When Timmy wished that kids rule the world, those places have turned into:
  • Ice Cream's Cathedral
  • Mount Fudge
  • Leaning Tower of Pizza
• The Simpsons - The song, "Get Flappy" sounds similar to "The Monorail Song", from the episode "Marge vs. the Monorail".
• Superman - The scene where H.P. and Sanderson find Flappy Bob in Kansas is a reference to Superman's origins.

The flag of North Korea

• Niagara Falls - Fairly Falls is a parody of the famous waterfall in the USA and Canada.
• 1950s movies - The Dinner scene and the "make-out point" scene in the song Floating With You are a reference to two famously parodied scenes (mostly the second one) from the 50s movies.
• Flag of North Korea - The design of Timmy's pencil case resembles the flag of North Korea.
• SpongeBob SquarePants - Timmy's summer going wrong is similar when SpongeBob and Patrick, in The Inmates of Summer, do the same.
  • Unlike this episode where Timmy is aware that the Learn-A-Torium is actually a prison and is suffering, SpongeBob and Patrick do the opposite when they go to Inferno Island.
    • Also this episode came before the latter even before the latter was in production.

Goofs

Junction magically appears

• At the beginning of the episode, when a panoramic scene of the broken bridge appears, there is not a junction neither another track visible near/next to the bridge. However, when the train diverts onto another track, a junction with another track appears.
• The distance between the train and the broken bridge keeps changing throughout the beginning.
• At the beginning, as the camera zooms in, there is a zooming scene in which the broken bridge is near a field. But in the following scenes, there are not fields nearby.
• Timmy is not afraid of Flappy Bob when he is dressed as a clown, but in "A Bad Case Of Diary-Uh!", he is afraid of clowns. Timmy may, however, have conquered his fear of clowns by this point.
• In Kids Just Being Kids, towards the beginning, Timmy hits a bell. However, the bell's ringing happens slightly before he hits the bell.
• In "Floating With You", Cosmo and Wanda turn in their crowns, wands, and normal clothes. Wanda's shirt is white instead of yellow.
• In "Floating With You", when Cosmo and Wanda are in the scene, where Wanda confesses that she knows that she nags, her crown becomes the color of the background for a frame.
• When the show was on Netflix, this episode was initially missing it's last 11 minutes. The episode ended right after Wanda goes down the Rainbow Bridge, where the episode would've cut to commercial on cable. Later on, this was corrected.
• In The Reprise Remix, when Timmy and the kids say "Adults ruin everything", the captions read "I'd come through with everything."
• During the opening scene when HP and Sanderson are driving, Sanderson is missing his hair wave. It could be assumed that HP is with a different Pixie, however he refers to him as Sanderson, implying that this is the "main" Sanderson HP is usually accompanied by.
• During the song Where is the Fun?, Timmy is seen with dark blue eyes for a split second.

Production Notes

• Although this episode premiered in 2005, it was produced in 2003 according to the credits.
