* [[Rule of Three]]: While it was well known in the movie, that there were numerous kid show hosts mentioned, both fictional and real life. Only three are shown on screen. Each one with different personality traits.
** Sheldom Mopes aka Smoochy is a [[Nice Guy]], who wants to make a difference, [[Beware The Nice Ones|but also has hidden anger issues whenever he gets pushed too far]].
** Rainbow Randolph is a [[Fallen Hero|failed kid show host]], who let corruption and greed get to him until his initial bust and is slowly [[Sanity Slippage|driven insane]] when he sees Mopes get more fame. But as time goes on he does show he is a [[Hidden Heart of Gold|good man]] at heart and is still well loved by some fans. {{Spoiler| This eventually leads to his [[Heel Face Turn]]}}
** Buggy Ding Dong is considered the low point in kid show host stuff. It really goes to show that Randolph, A man who had framed Smoochy for Nazism is still an upstanding guy compared to Buggy. Buggy used to be the best kid show host, but unlike Randolph, whose only crime prior to his fine was accepting bribes and not living up to his Iconic status, through his heavy drinking and insane personality; Buggy became a heroin addict and a disgrace which cost him his job. To make matters worse, while Randolph did have homicidal tendencies against Smoochy, he never tried anything physical in front of the kids. Buggy on the other hand, was planning to snipe Smoochy and while {{Spoiler| Randolph did stop him,}} it was shown early on that his heroine induced narcolepsy caused his eyes to be blurry. This in turn would have him running the risk of shooting a co-star or an audience member by mistake.
* [[Serious Business]]:
** Apparently, kiddie TV shows are full of groupies, graft and corruption in every sense of the word and one honest entertainer can be a massive [[Spanner in the Works]].
