  • "SpongeBob" is in Microsoft Office's spell-check lexicon, yet "Starscream" is not. Discuss.
  • Bill Fagerbakke, who voices SpongeBob's best friend Patrick Star in SpongeBob SquarePants (as well as being Kenny's real-life best friend), also voices Bulkhead in the Transformers Animated continuity. Small, hilarious-sounding world.
  • In an interview, Derrick J. Wyatt revealed that during "Weird Al" Yankovic's recording session for Animated, Kenny wasn't scheduled to show up, but came anyway just so he could introduce his son to Weird Al. D'awwwwww.
