Release

Dates are in order of release:

Behind the scenes

  • The episode title is a reference to the film Batman Begins.
  • Caveman is a new version of Captain Caveman, who is barely anything like the latter. Caveman isn't called Captain Caveman, he doesn't wear a loincloth, and he doesn't say his catchphrase, "Unga bunga." Caveman's body is revealed to be made entirely out of hair.
    • This was intended to be the beginning of a three-episode arc, with Caveman visiting Bedrock then joining a circus where he would finally become Captain Caveman.[2]

Errors

  • Grey Griffin is credited as Wiky, despite not appearing.
  • "Big Bang" is misspelled as "Bigbang."
