Segments[]

Like TV Series 2, There are no specific sets of segments that appear in every episode, nor are there segments with given names. Examples of recurring segments include: The Wiggles discussing the theme of an episode in the Wiggle Rainbow, or inside or outside Wigglehouse; Dorothy telling viewers about her trip to Kindergarten (recycled from TV Series 1) Greg performing magic tricks and trying to get a rabbit out of his hat (often with help, or hindrance, from Anthony); Captain Feathersword attempting to teach tricks to Wags the Dog (like trying to make him fetch an object he throws) with little success at either Wags World or his dockyard; Henry conducting his Underwater Big Band; and Dorothy planting in her garden.

Real Kids Segment[]

We see what real kids are doing, this segment is usually introduced by Wags the Dog saying "Ruff, let's see what our friends are up to". The footage of the kids is usually recycled from other PBS Kids shows like Arthur, Caillou, Sesame Street, and Teletubbies, these segments usually play in the middle or the end of each episode

Songs[]

PoniesAnimalstitlecard

The first song used in the series

Most of the songs are from Wake Up Jeff, Big Red Car, (known as Dance Party while this series is in production) Wiggle Time, Yummy Yummy, Toot Toot, It's a Wiggly Wiggly World, Hoop-Dee-Doo it's a Wiggly Party along with some newly filmed music videos. There are also songs featuring, the Wiggle Puppets songs, which music videos are taken from The Dorothy the Dinosaur and Friends Video, and holiday episodes using songs from Yule Be Wiggling and Wiggly Wiggly Christmas, with new CGI animated song clips in the same animation as Caveland and Jimmy the Elf.

The concert songs were filmed during the John Harms Center for the Arts show from The Wiggles' 10th Birthday Tour in Englewood, New Jersey, USA in 2001 (although some concert songs are used from The Wiggly Big Show and the Big Show).

Most songs used new title cards in the same style as those from Hoop-Dee-Doo it's a Wiggly Party and Yule Be Wiggling, each with the Sparkle transition, although some song titles keep their original transitions from TV Series 2 or the original Wiggles videos..

Trivia[]

  • This television series marks the only time in which Hit Entertainment and ABC For Kids worked collaboratively as a television cooperation between two foreign corporations and became one of the most popular and well-known children's TV Series in both Australia and America, as The Wiggles had crossovers with child favorites from both countries with Barney and Bob the Builder in America and Bananas in Pajamas from Australia.
    • Songs sung by Barney and Bananas in Pajamas appear in the series, with added vocals from The Wiggles.
  • This is the first and to date only Wiggles series to have a holiday episode (not counting the TV Series 1 episode Spooked Wiggles, the latter of which was considered as a Halloween episode), while this series has three holiday themed episodes, one for Valentines Day, one for Christmas and one for Easter.
  • This is the first Wiggles series with Maton Guitars, although most of the song clips still used guitars manufactured by Höfner, Fender (including the Red Starry Guitar), and Takamine.
  • It's also the last series to have The Wiggles wear the 1997-2001 long sleeved BONDS skivvies and plain black pants.
    • Their original BONDS skivvies were made out of cotton as experts warned the group that wearing these long sleeved tees over time could make tiny holes caused by their belts. This could mean according to Anthony in 2022 Today Show interview he commented "We sweated so much in these skivvies, and at one show, Murray was sweating, and one child in the audience yelled out "Murray's melting!" and the other people in the audience thought that we might have to update them."
    • It's also the only PBS exclusive series where Greg is slim, beginning with the next PBS exclusive series, he put on some weight.
  • Guest Stars include Morgan Crowley, John Williamson, B1, B2 and Rat in a Hat from Bananas in Pyjamas, Bob and Wendy from Bob the Builder, and Barney, Baby Bop, and BJ from Barney & Friends.
  • Likewise, some episodes are officially considered as crossovers of Bananas in Pyjamas, Bob The Builder, and Barney with The Wiggles.
  • Produced in the USA, this is the 2nd Wiggles series to be produced in a different country instead of Australia after TV Series 2, which was produced in the UK by GMTV.
  • Like TV Series 2, the song John Bradlelum uses both clips from 1998 and 1999.
  • John Williamson guest starred in the Races episode singing his song Old Man Emu, this is before The Wiggles recorded a version in 2002
  • On the funding for the closing of each episode, each Wiggle (whether it's Greg, Murray, Jeff, or Anthony) or Wiggly Friend (whether it's Captain, Dorothy, Henry or Wags) would say "The Wiggles' Wiggly World is made possible by Chuck E Cheese's And by a Ready To Learn Grant from the United States Department of Education through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting And by Contributions to your PBS Station from Viewers Like You, Thank You".
  • Wags the Dog's talking voice is in the series, though, it's mainly when we are hearing his thoughts, but Wags does begin to speaking out loud in some episodes in the series.
  • Likewise, this is the only Wiggles series to air on PBS Kids in Australia, Playhouse Disney in America and Nickelodeon in United Kingdom.
  • It's also the first Wiggles series exclusive to PBS Kids
  • This is the last time the Wiggle Puppets are used before it was decided that they were too creepy.
  • This is one of the first few Wiggles TV Series where the concert footage is filmed in the USA.
  • Production began two days after Between the Lions premiered it's second season.
  • Like TV Series 1, the song clip intros from Wiggle Time! and Yummy Yummy, and Officer Beaple's Dance from Toot Toot! have new sound effects, and the song clip intros from Hoop-Dee-Doo it's a Wiggly Party have extra background music.
  • In the song clip of Officer Beaple's Dance and intro for Quack Quack, the Warner Bros sound effects are replaced with Hanna-Barbera sound effects, although Officer Beaples' whistle sound effect is kept the same.
  • Like the song Run Around Run Run, Dorothy's rosy tea table can be converted into a trampoline
  • Like TV Series 2, Some song clips have alternate camera angles.
  • Before this series premiered on PBS Kids, the songs in the series are used as interstitials during PBS Kids Program Breaks.
  • This is the second series after TV Series 1 where one video's song title cards would stay the same.
  • Some music cues from TV Series 2 and The Wiggles Movie are played in a different key.
  • In the funding credits and some episodes, Dorothy is voiced by Emma Pask, while in other episodes and the sneak peeks at the beginning, she is voiced by Carolyn Ferrie
  • This is the only time the Wagettes speak, and are voiced by Dominic Field, Sarah Hayes, and Kelly-Rose Daiziel.
  • Each episode begins with a sneak peek of one song with dialogue by each Wiggly friend saying "Coming Up Next on The Wiggles Wiggly World" before the funding credits
  • This series premiered on PBS Kids in America when the Wiggly Party Australian Tour was performed at the Sydney Entertainment Centre
  • The animation for this series is similar to TV Series 2, with the same transitions from that series, but the sets of Dorothy's garden, Wags' kennel, Henry's place, Captain Feathersword's Warf, and Wigglehouse are different
  • The lounge room set for Wigglehouse was later used for the live-action prologue and epilogue in Space Dancing!
  • This series was sponsored by Chuck E Cheese in both 2001 and 2002, as this series production began the same month the Chuck E Cheese's Rockin Rhymes show with intermissions of Wiggles songs (i.e Get Ready to Wiggle and The Monkey Dance)
  • The Barney crossovers were filmed at Las Colinas in Irving, Texas, USA, while the rest of the series was filmed at the Sydney Entertainment Centre in Haymarket, Sydney, Australia during production for Hoop-Dee-Doo it's a Wiggly Party
  • The songs from Wake Up Jeff and Big Red Car are the oldest ones in a TV Series, although Big Red Car was released in America during this series production year 2001 (where it was titled as Dance Party) and Wake Up Jeff was released in America the previous year 2000
  • The same Big Red Car from It's a Wiggly Wiggly World! and Yule Be Wiggling is used, but omits the windshield.
  • Some transitions were used in TV Series 2 in 1999.
  • This series aired on Playhouse Disney in 2001-2002.
