Release

Dates are in order of release:

Behind the scenes

  • The title of the episode is a reference to the Cats Don't Dance film.
  • This episode reveals that Big H and Skids are girls in the Jellystone! universe.
    • Oddly enough, Sheena and Zelda are not included in this series, this is either due to them being stereotyped or because they weren't really part of the King's group.
  • After being devoured by Spooky, the King hasn't appeared again after this episode.
  • This is the first episode of Jellystone!, and the episode of a Yogi Bear series, where Yogi is absent.
  • The King's nickname for Top Cat, Bottom Cat, was the writer/director's humor in thinking it was a funny innuendo for "butt."[1]

Errors

  • Big H didn't have human-like fingers in the original incarnation, but it's possible that in the Jellystone! universe, Big H does have human-like fingers, that or it's just a mistake on the character designer's end.
  • What was left of the King was eaten by Spooky, but what happened to his crew's remains?
