Idea Bulb: One appears above Bong's head when Bong has a moment of inspiration in "Spring Cleaning".Heavy Sleeper: The local in "Pivotal Points" who sleeps through gentle nudging, an alarm clock ringing, and an explosion.Handcar Pursuit: In "Tools, Glorious Tools", Bing and Bong hitch a ride on a handcar on the Planet of Technology, and inevitably spend the next few minutes pumping furiously to stay ahead of an oncoming locomotive.Gravity Is a Harsh Mistress: Any time Bong is on a platform that moves downward suddenly (such as in the episode "Tip the Scales", or in the closing sequence), there's a demonstration of Creeping Gravity: Bong's head remains at the same level for a moment with Bong's body stretching out below it, before it snaps down to continue dropping at the same rate as the platform and Bong.In particular, the alarm that blares from Bing's watch at the end of the pilot not only sounds different from his alarm in the proper show, but is tied in to the background music that starts to play afterward. Early-Installment Weirdness: The pitch pilot "Tiny Planet of Colours", unsurprisingly, has several differences from the final show.Deliberately Monochrome: The silent film in "Flocker Flicker" is in sepia-tinted monochrome for no reason other than because that's what silent films look like.

Cute, but Cacophonic: Bong lets out a surprisingly loud and raucous shriek when particularly excited.It's different each episode and always shows a moment from the adventure they've just been on. Couch Gag: The closing credits sequence always ends with a close-up of the photo at Bing's bedside.The planet itself is set up like a life-sized orrery, with moons that don't so much orbit as stick out on long poles from a rotating ring at its equator.
