At one point, Mr. Nervous gives her his own glasses, telling her she needs them more than he does. This doesn't help any, since they have different prescriptions.

* [[Put on a Bus]]- Miss Calamity in Season 2

** Probably due to fear of criticism by feminists over a female [[Butt Monkey]].

** According to [[Word of God|the director]], she was [[Put On a Bus]] because Chorion wanted the show to focus more on the actual book characters (although Miss Daredevil is still around...)

*** Wouldn't it be [[Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]? After all, she was never mentioned in Season2, was removed from the theme song and credits, and her disappearance was never explained in-universe. The only reference to her that was made in season 2 was a statue of her in "Trees" but nobody mentioned about it being Miss Calamity and was probably done as a gag.

** Mr. Noisy got turned into a whale by Little Miss Magic and we don't see him again, even in the bumpers, musical numbers, his own songs, but for some reason, he made a speaking appearance in Bad Weather, and that is the first appearance of Mr. Noisy after he was [[Put On a Bus]].

*** There were only two episodes after his transformation, though, so it may have been a coincidence that he didn't appear.

Line 104:

** You kidding? He's a type C for sure. You just wait...

* [[Surrounded by Idiots]]- Mr. Grumpy and Mr Rude

* [[Why Do You Keep Changing Jobs?]] - In different sketches, various characters will have different jobs. The episode "Jobs" reveals that this is actually a way of life in Dillydale, as everyone gets a new job on Tuesday that lasts for a week.

** It would seem necessary for them to keep changing jobs - if a certain Mr. Men or Little Miss stayed in one job all the time (such as Mr. Scatterbrain or Little Miss Whops), they would run the business to the ground or cause lots of destruction with it.
