Trivia

 * Rock-a-Bye Your Bear is actually shown twice. One as the 1998 music video from Wiggle Time, and one as a bonus song from "Wiggle Time" 1993.
 * Sam sings "Ooh, It's Captain Feathersword" in the original video, but Greg sings this song on the CD and 2013 version.
 * "Hot Poppin' Popcorn" wasn't included on the original CD, due to the album it originates from wasn't out yet.
 * Since Steve Irwin died, they used the prologue of "Do the Owl" taken from from "Wiggly Safari" instead of filming a new one.
 * The first video "Wiggle Time" released in 1993 is mentioned by Anthony in the prologue of "Getting Strong!". Greg is also mentioned in the opening and closing scenes of this video.
 * At the beginning, old video footage of Jeff & Greg (from Yummy Yummy) are shown but the footage on video appears as the re-recordings.
 * This is the third video to be released a year after the album came out. The first was "Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas" and "Yule Be Wiggling". The 2013 version was released aroud the same time as the video.
 * Clare Field appears in the prologue of "Getting Strong!". OriginalSongTitlesinHotPotatoes!.jpgOriginalSongTitlesinHotPotatoes!(2013Version).jpg
 * The songs "House on the Hillside" and "A Family Song" are played as background music in "Interview with the Wiggles' Mums".
 * Just before the song title comes up for Hot Potato, you can see the front of the original Big Red Car banner title used in Yummy Yummy enter the screen. This is fixed in the 2013 version.
 * If you look very closely in the 2010 version when the Quack Quack title card is on the screen, you can see the top of Captain Feathersword's Pirate ship gliding across the sceen, which means the version they used was the one from TV Series 1, as the title card in that version was being pulled across by the SS Feathersword. Also, Quack Quack is listed as "From TV Series One" instead of "From Wiggle Time!", so that could by why. In the 2013 version, this problem is more visible, and you can see more of the ship and the water it glides on.
 * More visible original song titles in the 2013 version include The Monkey Dance, Go Santa Go, and Move Your Arms Like Henry.
 * In the 2014 version, Wiggly Party, Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport, The Zeezap Song, Dr Knickabocker, Over In The Meadow, Wags the Dog Is Chasing His Tail, To Have A Tea Party, and the Sam version of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is not on the video or album.
 * Anthony's introduction to Dorothy, Would You Like To Dance? has the same intro the song Dorothy The Dinosaur in Wiggle Time! Re-recording (only the first part).
