** The Christmas special released on video. All but one of the episodes featured had nothing to do with Christmas at all, although one admittedly was about Thanksgiving.
** Same with "All Growed Down", except for the last segment, which was most likely an unaired episode.
* [[Collectible Cloney Babies]]:
** "The Game" treats Ajimbo pieces as this, because the winner of each match collects the loser's tile pieces. While people can buy more game pieces at Kelso's store, they take pride in collecting the tiles.
** "The Legend of Big Kid" starts with Vince and T.J. comparing baseball cards before kindergarteners ambush them. When the kindergartners turn T.J. into one of them, so he thinks that he is "Big Kid," Vince snaps him out of it by showing him the card of his favorite baseball player.
** "Bonky Fever" shows Mikey having a preteen life crisis after his mother tells him that after he turns ten, she can't walk him to the bus anymore. He starts collecting Bonky the Green Dragon merchandise, which makes him the laughingstock of the school because it's meant for kindergartners. His friends try to snap him out of it by confiscating the merchandise and handing it over to Miss Finster, but he has to have a talk with his mother about how he's scared of growing up to break the obsession.
* [[Comic Book Time]]: Actually ''averted'', as it's been established that while the show aired from 1997 to 2001, the show is taking place over the course of Fall 1997 and Spring/Summer 1998 (with ''Taking the Fifth Grade'' taking place in Fall 1998)
* [[Competence Zone]]: Kindergartners are portrayed as wild savages, and adults frequently can't comprehend their children's problems.
