* [[Art Shift]]: In preliminary models, Hair Bear was given a jutting chin, similar to [[Scooby Doo]]. It was later refined, but this preliminary version was briefly seen in the debut episode "Keep Your Keeper" as well as throughout its comic book adaptation "Zoo's Who" (Gold Key #1, February 1972).
* [[Balloon Belly]]: Square Bear in "The Diet Caper".
* [[Beary Funny]]
Line 20:
* [[Edited for Syndication|Edited For TV]]: Scenes that were animated but not used on the first CBS run were used in the second run. Among the scenes were the bears getting busted for playing "Slap Jack" with Bananas (''Closed Circuit TV''), Peevly accosting a wild forest bear, mistaking it for the Bunch (''I'll Zoo You Later''), and Peevly verbally accepting Hair's proposal to stage a re-enactment of the story of Noah and the Ark (''Ark Lark''). These scenes have been noticeably absent from the show's play on USA, Cartoon Network and Boomerang.
** More recently, footage from "Keep Your Keeper" is missing. It's footage of the bears running into their cave plus the following dialogue after Hair's alibi that the party hat on his head is in celebration of Peevly's birthday:
{{quote| '''Peevly:''' My birthday isn't for six months!!<br />
'''Hair:''' Nothing like getting a head start, sir. }}
* [[Everything's Worse with Bears]]: Just ask Mr. Peevly.
Line 29:
* [[Hammerspace]]: The bears' cave. When the keepers aren't around, the bears' cave transforms into a luxury den with a fully stocked kitchen. Another part of the cave conceals Bubi's laboratory, which he employs to create a perfume for Arnie the lovesick gorilla in "Love Bug Bungle".
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Comedian [[Car 54, Where Are You?|Joe E. Ross]] was Botch. [[Daws Butler]] was Hair Bear and [[Paul Winchell]] was Bubi.
* [[I'm a Doctor, Not a Placeholder]]: Done in "Love Bug Bungle." The bears are out of control on an air-filled inflatable toy horse (using jet-propulsion to go). Whe Square asks how to control it, Hair says, "I'm a bear, not a cowboy!" Then in "I'll Zoo You Later," the bears make a getaway on a helium tank using the same jet-propulsion principle.
{{quote| '''Square:''' Hey, Hair...can't you steer this thing?<br />
'''Hair:''' Look, I'm a bear, not an astronaut! }}
* [[Man, I Feel Like a Woman]]: At the beginning of "I'll Zoo You Later", the bears try to sneak back into the zoo with Hair dressed as a mother (Bubi and Square are in a baby carriage hidden under a blanket).
Line 41:
* [[Scooby Snacks]]: Botch's promotion. Averted in that he never achieved it.
** Zig-zagged in the missing scenes from "I'll Zoo You Later": When Peevly accosts a wild bear and sees it's not the Bunch, he panicly runs for it and gets his belt loop caught in a tree branch.
{{quote| '''Botch:''' If I help, do I get my promotion?<br />
'''Peevly:''' (''hysterically'') Yes! Yes!!<br />
(''Botch tweaks the branch and Peevly flies out, landing on the ground'')<br />
'''Peevly:''' (''slow-burning'') I promote you from a third-class dolt to a first-class nincompoop!!<br />
'''Botch:''' (''actually pleased'') Gee, thanks! }}
* [[Standardized Leader]]: Hair Bear.
* [[Super Multi-Purpose Room]]: The bears' cave is this.
* [[Syndication Title]]: [[CowboyMedia BebopResearch at His ComputerFailure|Some reference material]] claims that the show went into syndication under the name "The Yo-Yo Bears" (its working title) after its CBS run. It actually remained dormant until USA Network acquired it for their "Cartoon Express" show in 1984.
* [[Talking Animal]]: The bears. As well as all the other inhabitants of the zoo.
* [[Talking to Himself]]: John Stephenson is both Peevly and the superintendent. [[Daws Butler]] does voices for Hair Bear, Bananas and Fumbo.
