Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! is a children's animated show created by Bob Boyle (also known for Yin Yang Yo!). It was produced by Bolder Media and Starz, and animated by Bardel Entertainment using a mix of Adobe Flash and Toon Boom.

The show centers on its namesake character Wubbzy (Grey DeLisle), an anthropomorphic gerbil-like creature with a long, flexible tail and the Catchphrase "Wow! Wow!", which inspired the rest of the show's title. Each episode often consists of him embarking on adventures or getting into antics with his best friends, the pink rabbit-like Gadgeteer Genius Widget (Lara Jill Miller), the intelligent bear-like Walden (Carlos Alazraqui), and (starting in season 2) the aqua-green energetic girl Daizy (Tara Strong). They all live in the town of Wuzzleburg, which has lots of creatures of every type.

Wubbzy premiered on August 21, 2006 and aired for two seasons until February 21, 2010. In the United States, the show aired on Starz Kids and Family and the Nick Jr. block (in Canada, Starz licensed the show to Nick's rival Disney Junior, which aired reruns until 2015, although it did originally air in Canada on Treehouse TV before moving)^note Although, the Disney Junior channel in Canada was run by Astral Media at the time, and later DHX Media/Wildbrain before rebranding the network to Family Jr..

The show also received two specials: an hour-long Clip Show movie fittingly titled Wubbzy's Big Movie!, which premiered exclusively on the Starz Kids and Family channel in August 2008, and Wubb Idol, which featured Beyoncé as a member of a girl group called the Wubb Girlz (alongside DeLisle and Strong) and premiered in May 2009.

Boyle submitted his original concept for the eventual show as a book to Frederator Studios, the lead creative partner in Bolder Media, and his submission was selected for development into an animated show for preschoolers from more than 6,000 children's book concepts that were reviewed.

Wow! Wow! Tropes!:

• 13 Is Unlucky: In "Mr. Unlucky", Wubbzy notices he and Daizy are on 13th Street and that being on that street will make him unluckier. Shortly after, he bumps into Widget, causing her whammer-hammer to fly out and break a nearby mirror, which provides Wubbzy with more bad luck.
• Accidental Hero: After Wubbzy plays chase with a friendly dinosaur in "Wubbzy the Hero", the town believes that he saved them by chasing a dangerous dinosaur away.
• Added Alliterative Appeal: This show has a lot of W's. Wow! Wow! Wow!
• Advanced Tech 2000: How Widget names her inventions, but she uses "3000" as opposed to 2000.
• Aesop Amnesia: In "Eggs Over Easy", Wubbzy teaches Widget about the fun of Easter being the fun of doing it yourself. However, Wubbzy forgets his own taught aesop and tries to make Valentine's cards faster in "My Speedy Valentine".
• Alliterative Title: The words in the show’s title all start with the letter W (Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!).
• Alphabetical Theme Naming: Wubbzy, Walden and Widget. Daizy breaks the pattern.
• Amnesia Episode: In the movie, Wubbzy's Big Movie!, the plot revolves around Wubbzy receiving “knockity-noggin”^note Wuzzleburg’s term for amnesia when he falls down a hill. Throughout the movie, Widget and Walden attempt to restore Wubbzy’s memory by recalling experiences they had together.
• Arboreal Abode: Wubbzy lives in a big tree that's been turned into a house.
• Ascended Extra: Mayor Whoozle, who goes from a one-off character in Season 1 to a recurring character in Season 2.
• Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: Appropriately, the episode "Attack of the 50-Foot Fleegle", when Wubbzy’s pet Fleegle, Tiny, grows in size and attacks Wuzzleburg when Wubbzy irresponsibly feeds him candy.
• Batman Can Breathe in Space: In fact, the concept of oxygen isn't even discussed.
• Beach Episode: In "Walden on the Beach", Wubbzy and Widget invite Walden to spend time on the beach. The rest of the episode consists of the three enjoying their day on the beach.
• Be Yourself:
  • In “A Tale of Tails”, Wubbzy learns that he shouldn’t hide his ‘kooky’ tail to fit in with the others. Instead, he should be proud to show it off, as his long and bendy tail is an essential part of himself.
  • In the episode, “Mr. Cool”, Walden enlists Wubbzy and Widget to help him dress, talk, and move cool for the upcoming Wuzzleburg Boogie Bash, but after the effects of his alter-ego ruins the party, he is called “uncool” and is forced to leave the party. Shortly afterward, Wubbzy and Widget find out about the trouble that Chef Fritz, Huggy, Buggy, and Earl are having, and they call Walden back inside. Walden uses his knowledge to help each of them and then gets called “cool”. Walden then realizes that he is already cool just the way he is.
• Birthday Episode: Three Ageless Birthday Episodes:
  • Wubbzy celebrates his Birthday in two episodes: "Perfecto Party" and "Big Birthday Mystery".
  • Widget celebrates her Birthday in "Dash for Dolly".

• Borrowed Catchphrase: Wubbzy says one of Widget's catchphrases "That wasn't supposed to happen" in "Wubbzy's Big Move", "Welcome to the Dollhouse", "What Will Wubbzy Do?", and "Wubb Girlz Rule!".
• Bowdlerise: In "Mr. Cool", Widget shows a dance move called the 'spastic ostrich'. However, since 'spastic' is considered a slur in the UK, they replaced it with 'funky ostrich' in the UK dub.
  • In fact, the term is the reason why the episode got banned on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in Australia.
• Breaking the Fourth Wall: Wubbzy seems to not even take any notice of the fourth wall; he often talks to the viewers.
• Broken Glass Penalty: What sets off the plot in the episode "Hangin' with Mr. Gummy". While playing Batty-Ball, Wubbzy swings and hits the ball so hard that it goes through the window of a senior citizen named Mr. Gummy. To make it up for it, Wubbzy offers to spend the whole day with him.
• By the Lights of Their Eyes: The episode, "Monster Madness" had Wubbzy's eyes shown in the darkness after hearing a bunch of noises which made him think there are monsters in his house after watching a scary movie marathon. What is strange is that Wubbzy does not have the white in his eyes, yet when it is pitch black, the white in his eyes are shown.
• Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp": Pretty much every term you can think of has a strange, funny-sounding name in Wuzzleburg. For example, "Knockity-Noggin" is used instead of "amnesia".
• Cartoon Creature: Most characters on the show do not represent any sort of real-life creature.
• Catchphrase: Besides Wubbzy's "Wow! Wow!", Widget uses both "No problemo!" and "That's not supposed to happen"/"That wasn't supposed to happen," Walden uses "Yes, yes, yes!", "My, my, my!", and "Very interesting!", and Daizy is prone to saying, "Lavender lollipops!"
  • Then there's the Kooky Kid, who always says "That’s kooky!" when something weird happens.
• Character in the Logo: Wubbzy is in the logo, usually depicted standing on the top right of "Wubbzy" in the show title.
• Character Tics: All the characters have an idle rest pose where they hold their hands straight to their wrists while clenching their hands in fists, similar to Wallace from Wallace & Gromit. In fact, this pose is listed on the characters' model sheets as "the Wallace & Gromit pose".
• Cheerful Child: Wubbzy. He's shown to be cheerful and playful.
• Cheer Up Episode: In "Widget Gets the Blooey Blues", Widget gets into a depressive funk when her latest invention, the Happy Hopper 3000, doesn’t work. Wubbzy and Walden try and cheer her up by doing silly things to try and make her feel better.

• Christmas Episode: There were three Christmas episodes in this series: "'O Figgity Fig Tree" from season one, and "Great and Grumpy Holiday" and "The Super Special Gift" from season 2.
• Clipped-Wing Angel: The Flash game "Wubbzy’s Underwater Adventure" involved Wubbzy adventuring to Wuzzlantis to save it from being turned into stone by an evil fish. Upon defeating the giant pufferfish-like creature by trapping its claws in bubbles, its shell breaks open to reveal a tiny green piranha that is easily defeated by trapping it in a bubble.
• Clip Show: The 2008 film Wubbzy's Big Movie! is made up of various episodes from the first season.
• Clone Degeneration: In "Two Many Wubbzy's", the clones Wubbzy sent to hang out with his friends end up defective and begin to run amok. The clone given to Widget suddenly grows a beak and wings, the clone given to Walden starts stretching to a ludicous degree, and the clone given to Daizy inflates like a giant balloon.

If you don't select either one and sit around on said screen, she will repeat herself.
• Cousin Oliver: Daizy is one of these. She debuted in the second season premiere and thus did not appear during the first season. Second season episodes have Daizy wedged into the Theme Tune by changing a line in the song to include her.
• A Day in the Limelight: Walden is the main protagonist in "Goo Goo Grief!" and "Mr. Cool". The show's episodes usually focus on Wubbzy, Daizy, or the main four.
• Department of Redundancy Department: In Wubbzy's interview, when one of the kids ask him what he likes to do for fun.

• Everyone Laughs Ending: Most of the episodes in the show end with the characters laughing.
• Evil Lawyer Joke: In "The Ghost of Wuzzleburg", Wubbzy considers wearing a lawyer costume for Halloween to scare people.

  • Wubbzy is very similar to SpongeBob in terms of both appearance and personality.
  • Widget is comparable to Sandy because of their love of building inventions.
  • Walden could be a combination of both Squidward and Mr. Krabs due to sharing the former's love of art and music, and the latter's somewhat assertive attitude.
  • Daizy shares many similarities with Pearl in that they both enjoy very feminine activities and like the color pink (though, Daizy is a lot less whiny). Their main attire look very similar too.
• Feud Episode: "Wubbzy in the Middle" has Widget and Walden get into a feud and in Season 2's "What a Card", Wubbzy and Daizy be nice to Earl just so they can get his Touchdown Tiki card and start arguing at the store and when they both attempt to steal Earl.

• Funny Animal: All of the characters are anthropomorphic animals who live in houses and (mostly) wear clothing. Interestingly, it's really not clear what animals they are supposed to be. Wubbzy is a yellow square thing, who might be a gerbil or hedgehog (going by the long tail, it is likely that he is a gerbil). Widget kind of looks like a rabbit, but that's mostly her long ears. Walden's species isn't clear at all, though the Other Wiki says he's a bear. Daizy vaguely looks like a dog.
• Gadgeteer Genius: Widget, who tackles problems that she (or at least one of her three friends) faces by building machines. They often backfire, but once in a while they actually work.
• The Ghost: Widget once mentions a cousin named "Ratchet" in "Once Upon a Wubbzy", but said cousin is never shown at all nor ever mentioned again.

• Green Aesop: Wubbzy and the gang have to deal with an excess of plastic bottles in Wuzzleburg in "All Bottled Up".
• The Grinch: Old Man Grumpus is an example of one in the episode "Great and Grumpy Holiday". He hates Christmas because every year, he receives underpants instead of a toy train. Throughout the episode, he hinders the holiday by refusing to let Wubbzy and his friends take a Christmas tree^note Their original tree was stolen by beavers. from his yard. He scares the residents off, even when they try to decorate his tree and gift him a toy train of his own. However, when he realizes they were trying to be kind, he changes his ways, and lets them use his tree.
• Halloween Episode:
  • The episode "Monster Madness" from the first season. While it isn’t a episode involving Halloween completely, it acts like one, as its original airdate is close to Halloween. When the title character fears that monsters are lurking in the dark after he watches a scary TV show. Widget tries to reassure him, and she builds a machine, the Monster Masher, to take care of any monsters. But Wubbzy's fear is contagious, and soon she starts seeing monsters too! They both rush to Walden's house for safety, and Walden takes out his flashlight to show them that all the monsters they saw were just ordinary objects in the dark.
  • In "The Ghost of Wuzzleburg", Wubbzy wants to win first prize in the Halloween costume contest but his scary monster costume has everyone afraid he's a real one.
  • In "March of the Pumpkins", Wubbzy and Daizy want to win the pumpkin contest during the autumn Harvest Festival, so they travel to the Pumpkin King's pumpkin patch to find the largest pumpkin. While they fail to get the largest pumpkin, they find out that the feared Pumpkin King himself, Francis, isn't mean or angry at all.
• Here We Go Again!:

  • Happens at the end of "Bye Bye Birdies" when Widget thinks no more birds will go to the Wubb Club, only for Wubbzy to say "Uh, don't be too sure, Widget..." before a rookery of penguins arrive with suitcases to move into the Wubb Club. Cue Wubbzy saying the trope's name before laughing.
• Honesty Aesop:
  • In "Wubbzy Tells a Whopper", Wubbzy breaks Widget's whammer-hammer while he's playing in her workshop. He learns to tell the truth about the situation when his lie about the Growlygus quickly gets out of hand and spreads through Wuzzleburg. This aesop is reinforced during the song following it, "Don't Lie".
  • In "Wubbzy the Hero", after nobody believes that he was an Accidental Hero when he chases a supposedly dangerous dinosaur back to Dino Island, Wubbzy begins to embrace the lies the town has created for him. When the dinosaur returns with some of his friends however, Wubbzy learns to speak up and tell the truth about the situation, with some help from Daizy.
• Ill-Timed Infirmity: Subverted in "The Nasty Nose". Wubbzy's nose gets bigger and turns purple and spotty, and he is diagnosed with "Nasty Nose". He's concerned that he won't be able to go to the pool party, but Walden tells him it isn't contagious so he can still go. He spends the rest of the episode being embarrassed by the nose at the party.
• Impact Silhouette: In "Woozy Walden", after Daizy knocks on Walden's door asking if he's alright, Widget uses a buzzsaw to cut a hole in her likeness and get through, though Wubbzy opens the door by simply pushing it. The gag is later repeated when she manages to bring Dr. Flooey along with her.
• Inept Mage: "Wubbzy's Magical Mess-Up" paints Wubbzy as one. In the episode, he tries his hand at magic while temporarily in charge of a magic store. Without fail, Wubbzy causes a mess, causing even more chaos when he tries to undo the spells.
• Inexplicably Tailless: In Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!'s early comic book "The Tail of Flopsy, Mopsy, and Ted", Flopsy was drawn with a tail. Once the book became a series, Flopsy was redesigned into Widget, who lacks a tail.
• Ink-Suit Actor: A few of the guest star characters are modeled (and named after) their voice actor.

  • They also stole the Christmas tree in Wuzzleburg Square in the Christmas Episode "Great and Grumpy Holiday".
• Keet: Wubbzy is one of the youngest characters in the main cast who is a cute and hyperactive character. He bounces around with his tail, is easily excitable, and is curious about the world surrounding him. He is also shown to have girly traits, as his room is decorated with flowers and he dresses in girly clothing without complaint.

He also appears in the season two episode "Wubb Girlz Rule", where he was just taking a nap.
• Match Cut: "Walden is his friend, he's really smart, he knows about science [cut] and books [cut] and art..."
• Mechanical Animals: The Robo-Cluck 3000, a robotic chicken holding the honor of being the first of Widget's many inventions to appear on the show, is an example of a robotic animal.
  • It appeared in "A Tale of Tails", where it went haywire after Wubbzy accidentally pushed a lever that activated it.
  • It was also the main antagonist of the Flash game "Wubbzy's Amazing Adventure", where, in addition to the robot chicken itself, it also introduced Chick-Bots, which hatched from the eggs it threw.
• Me's a Crowd: "Too Many Wubbzy's" centers around Wubbzy creating a series of clones of himself in order to do all of his friends' activities at the same time. Unfortunately for Wubbzy, the clones turn out defective and begin wreaking havoc.

• The Olympics: "Run for Fun" involves the title character and his friends compete in the Wuzzolympic Games, hosted by Michelle Kwanzleberry (voiced by retired American figure skater Michelle Kwan). When they race in the Wuzzleburg Wacky Dash, everyone resorts on cheating, expect for Daizy who follows Michelle's advice ("Prepare, practice, and have fun!") and wins the event.
• Omnidisciplinary Scientist: Walden is shown to be such a scientist. He is able to perform numerous branches of science with success like biology, as he researches different Wuzzleburg species like the Snow Shoo Shoos, physics, as he is shown doing numerous equations in “Dash For Dolly” to invent flippity-flip, along with understanding a wide range of other scientific branches.
• Performance Anxiety: Wubbzy is stricken with stage fright when he has to sing onstage in "The Great Wuzzlewood Concert".
• Pokémon Speak: The only things the Wuzzly Bears ever say is "Wuzzle".
• Prehensile Tail: Wubbzy's tail. It's able to wrap around objects to hold them, as well as coil into a spring shape to allow him to bounce (like Tigger), and it is even a story element in "A Tale of Tails", the show's very first episode.

• Rain, Rain, Go Away: The episode "Wubbzy's Rainy Day" has the titular character about to play Hoppity-Hoop Hockey outside when it starts to rain. He then begins watching TV, only for the power to go off. His friends come over to his treehouse, one by one, and each time they think of something new to do that isn't boring; then they end up getting bored right before the next friend shows up. After all his friends are there and they've been playing for a while, the power comes back on and it stops raining.
• Reading Foreign Signs Out Loud: A unique aversion happens in the Portuguese dub, which predates the use of subtitles: the text on the sign itself is rewritten, making it seem like it was originally written in Portuguese^note Most of the text has been translated and rewritten, including the opening lyrics and the title card.
• Read the Freaking Manual: In "Attack of the 50 Foot Fleegle", when Wubbzy gets a pet Fleegle, he throws away the manual because he thinks he won't need it. If he'd read the manual, he would have known that feeding a Fleegle candy causes it to grow exponentially, or that feeding it a sandwich causes it to multiply.
• Road Trip Plot: In the episode "Wubbzy's Wacky Journey", he and his friends embark on a trip to Wuzzleburg after he previously wins the Wubb Girlz' Talent Contest in Wuzzleburg. However, Walden refuses to let anyone stop at fun places along the drive to Wuzzlewood. Hilarity Ensues as expected when Wubbzy sneaks off the Wubb-Mobile to spend time at Wacky World, bumping into the Wubb Girlz.

• Rube Goldberg Device: Widget is prone to these, making enormously complicated devices to, for example, straighten a picture frame or clean Walden's glasses.
• Runaway Train: In the episode "The Wuzzleburg Express", when Widget fixes the Wuzzleburg Express herself, instead of waiting for the conductor to get help, the train begins to travel too quickly and is unable to brake for other passengers. Widget and her friends spend the rest of the episode finding a way to stop the train before it crashes at its ending point: Mount Zubba Bubba.
• Running Gag: When something odd happens, the Kooky Kid will walk by while saying "That's kooookyyyy..."
• Same Language Dub: There's a British English dub of this show.
• Series Continuity Error:
  • In a season one episode "Perfecto Party", Wubbzy states that he's allergic to marshmallows. But two episodes, including the previously aired "Wubbzy in the Woods", ignored this as he doesn't have a reaction towards it.
  • In "Dash for Dolly", Widget liked Wubbzy's homemade doll better than the Hammering Holly-Dolly. In "Tea for Three", she was clearly shown with a Hammering Holly-Dolly.
• Shout-Out: Come on, it can't be a coincidence that one cartoon was titled Welcome to the Dollhouse, can it?
  • Wubbzy is seen wearing The Cat in the Hat's iconic red-and-white hat at one point of the theme song.
  • Many other shout-outs occur throughout the series. In an episode where Wubbzy becomes giant-sized he goes to see a movie called "The Big Big Monkey" that is an obvious goof on King Kong. In another he briefly wears an Iron Man costume.

• Sick Episode: Walden has one in "Woozy Walden" when he comes down with Chickenitis, which leaves him bedridden and clucking like a chicken.
• Sleepwalking: In the episode "Moo Moo's Snoozity Snooze", Wubbzy and his friends go on a wacky adventure to stop the said magician when he sleepwalks and begins to cast spells everywhere in his sleep around Wuzzleburg.
• The Smart Guy: Walden is the smartest person in the main cast. Whenever his friends need help with something, he uses his extensive knowledge and scholarly practice to try and solve their problems.
• Snowball Lie: In "Wubbzy Tells a Whopper", Wubbzy breaks Widget's whammer hammer and claims it was stolen by a so-called Growlygus. Unfortunately, what started out as a simple lie turns into a mass panic when the entire city of Wuzzleburg starts believing a Growlygus is on the loose, which only ends when Wubbzy is forced to tell the truth.
• Sorcerer's Apprentice Plot: In "Wubbzy's Magical Mess Up", Wubbzy borrows Moo Moo the Magician's wand while the latter is away from the shop and ends up creating a mess of chaos.
• Special Guest: Jeff Bennett as the Fire Chief, Cupid, and Easter Bunny, Phil LaMarr as Jam Jam James, Rob Paulsen as Stu, the manager of the Wubb Girlz, Beyoncé as Shine of the Wubb Girlz, Ty Pennington (of Extreme Home Makeover fame) as Ty Ty the Tool Guy, Michelle Kwan (Olympic figure skater) as Michelle Kwanzleberry, entertainment reporter Jann Carl as Jann Starl, and Tiki Barber (ex NFL Running Back, although Tiki only gets about four lines in his episode) as Touchdown Tiki.
• Splitting Pants: Widget splits her pants at the end of the episode called "Gotta Dance" when she tries to practice ballet moves.
• Squirrels in My Pants:
  • Earl suffers this briefly in "Attack of the 50-Foot Fleegle" when a weasel in his shirt tickles him.
  • Widget suffers this in "Magic Tricks" when a rabbit gets in her overalls, making her laugh as it tickles her.
  • Walden suffers this in "My Speedy Valentine" when a Tickle Bug gets in his shirt while teaching monkeys how to make Valentines' cards, causing him to laugh and flail around.
  • Wubbzy and Daizy suffer this in "Woozy Walden" with some Happy Ha-Ha Bugs, except the bugs are on the outsides of their clothing (with Wubbzy wearing nothing)
• Stock Audio Clip:
  • It's notable that the titular character's "wow", which he says every single chance he gets, are for the most part reused takes. According to "The Wow Reel", Wubbzy says "wow" in one form or another 843 times throughout all 52 episodes! That recycling should've kept his voice actress from going up the wall for the most part.
  • The other characters' catchphrases are also recycled voice clips, such as Walden's "Yes, yes, yes!", Widget's "That wasn't supposed to happen!", Daizy's "Lavender lollipops!" plus a clip of her singing the background music that usually plays when she is on screen, and a Running Gag scenario when an orange squared kid says "That's koo-oo-ooky!" the exact same way every time when an unpredictable event happens, though sometimes the "That's" is edited out.
• Stock Footage: The Jukebox Robot segments in Season 2 often reuse the same four songs in every episode.
• Surprisingly Mundane Reason: In "The Nasty Nose", Wubbzy gets a swollen, polka-dot nose. He then sees Huggy, Buggy, and Earl wearing a helmet, big shoes, and big gloves respectively. When Huggy and Buggy take their garments off to reveal that their ears and feet respectively, were also swollen and polka-dotted, Wubbzy assumes the same thing happened to Earl's hands, but he clarifies that he just likes the gloves.
• Take My Hand!: In "Wubbzy's Big Makeover", when Wubbzy gets caught on the Wuzzlewood sign, Daizy takes Wubbzy's hand so he can be brought onto the Wubbmobile.
• Talent Contest: In "Wuzzleburg Idol", The Wubb Girlz host a talent show, with the winner getting to perform with the group on a tour to Wuzzlewood. Wubbzy ends up winning, mainly due to him being the only contestant whose act did not involve the Wubb Girlz' in any way.
• Tempting Fate: In "Wubbzy's Magical Mess-Up", when everyone gets back, Walden asks where the monkeys and elephant are... and the monkeys and elephant suddenly poof back into the magic school. Cue Walden lampshading the trope by saying "I had to ask".
• That's No Moon: Played With in "Fly Us to the Moon":
  Walden: That's not a star, Wubbzy. That's a comet.
  All three friends: A COMET?!
  • Happens again in the same episode with an asteroid.
  Walden: I believe that's an asteroid.
  All three friends: AN ASTEROID?!
• Theme Tune Roll Call: The theme song introduces each of the main characters: Wubbzy, Widget, Walden, and in Season 2, Daizy.
• There Was a Door: Happens in "Woozy Walden" twice. Widget cuts a hole in her likeness in the wall (later making another one next to the original) not realizing the door was unlocked until Wubbzy and later Dr. Flooey push it open.
• Thick-Line Animation: The characters in the show are all animated with thick black outlines surrounding them.
• Two Shorts: Episodes are made up of two 11-minute segments.
• Two-Timer Date: In "Too Many Wubbzy's", Wubbzy must find a way to visit an inventors' convention with Widget, a robot dinosaur exhibit with Walden, and an On Ice show with Daizy in the same day. He decides to use Widget's cloning machine, which works out...until the clones start defecting and transform.
• Three Shorts: The first season has two main episodes with a short in between and a song at the end. In the second season, the short would also be accompanied with another song.
• Title Theme Tune: "Wow, wow, Wubbzy! Wubbzy, Wubbzy, wow wow!"
• Tomboy and Girly Girl: Widget (an overalls-wearing Gadgeteer Genius with a fairly deep voice) is the tomboy while Daizy (a dress-wearing Friend to All Living Things with a high-pitched voice) is the girly girl.
• Treasure Hunt Episode: In "Pirate Treasure", Wubbzy finds a treasure map in a library book he's reading. With the help of his friends, he uses the map to sail across a lake and to an island where the treasure is hidden.
• Treasure Map: In "Pirate Treasure", Wubbzy finds a map in a library book he's reading. The treasure map is a map of Wuzzleburg with a ‘X’ labeling where the treasure is.
• Tutti Frutti Hat: In "Perfecto Party", Walden speeds past by an old woman carrying a grocery bag full of fruit. The fruit ends up landing on her hair and becomes a fruit hat.
• Twinkle Smile:
  • In "Puddle Muddle", Wubbzy's teeth twinkle when he cleans them at the beginning of the episode.
  • Daizy shows this off in "Who's That Girl?" when she shows off her kickity-kick ball tricks.
• Unusual Euphemism: Daizy's Catchphrase, "Lavender lollipops!"
• Unwilling Copycat: In "Everything's Coming Up Wubbzy", Widget invents the Wow Wow Wonderhat 300 to hypnotize Walden into acting more like Wubbzy. Shenanigans ensue as it gets knocked around, causing the mailman and even a dog to act like Wubbzy until they retrieve it and end the chaos
• Vocal Evolution: In the first half of Season 1, Wubbzy's voice sounds lower and more boyish sounding. In the second half and Season 2, it sounds higher and more cheerful.
• Walk This Way:
  • Wubbzy tells the Puff-Puff Penguins this in "Zoo Hullaballoo" when he brings them to stay at his home. He leads the penguins into his tree house while waddling like them.
  • Daizy tells her friends this in "Daizy's Favorite Place" when she tells them to follow her to her favorite place. They all walk just like her along the way: tiptoeing, skipping, hopping, and spinning.
• Water Guns and Balloons: The short, Splish Splash, exaggerates this trope. Here, Wubbzy and Widget are playing "water-fight" by using water balloons, with each one seen getting bigger and bigger. Hilarity ensues and they later on begin using hoses, and a gigantic water-hose/water balloon combination, which eventually leads to the whole town ending up underwater.
• What Happened to the Mouse?:
  • Old Man Grumpus is only seen in two episodes.
  • Also, the Wubb Girlz are never seen again after the 4 episodes they were featured in.
  • Wubbzy's pet fleegle, Tiny, is never seen again after his debut episode.
• Where the Hell Is Springfield?: It is never stated where Wuzzleburg is located. In "Fly Us to the Moon", they fly towards the state of Washington. This also makes sense, since there is a lot of forests and there appears to be a lot of rain in Wuzzleburg.
