Beat Bugs is a 2016 CGI animated series. Created by Josh Wakely for Netflix, the series features insects that sing songs by The Beatles. The entire world (an untamed backyard garden) is built around the lyrics to the numerous songs used and mentioned throughout the series. Wakely took years getting the rights to the music and the staff around him to create the show. The show aims to teach young children life lessons in a gentle manner while using the music of The Beatles.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The series currently has three seasons, the third having premiered in November 2018. Netflix also released a 48-minute special, Beat Bugs: All Together Now on November 21, 2017, featuring "Here Comes the Sun," and also including the songs "I Want to Hold Your Hand," "All Together Now" and "Ticket to Ride." A stage show based on the program, Beat Bugs: A Musical Adventure, began playing in theaters in October 2018. A film, Beat Bugs: The Movie, is currently in development. It's unknown if the show will be renewed for a fourth season.The success of the series led to another program, on Netflix, Motown Magic, by the same creator. While not set in the same universe, it features a similar concept, in that each installment is themed around a particular song, in this case, Motown music.

Agony of the Feet: This happens to Kumi in "Tomorrow Never Knows" when she tries to kick the rainbow brooch as a means of moving it. It happens again in "Hello Goodbye" when she kicks a phone, frustrating at not being able to figure out what it does. It happens to start ringing at that moment, leading her to think at first that it's a kickstarted music machine, at least until she starts hearing a voice on it. Later, when she brings the other bugs to see it, she kicks it again, this time with no results except hurting her foot.

Anachronic Order: "Hey Bulldog," in which the characters meet Bulldog, is one of the last installments. Earlier episodes, however, already show Bulldog as an established character, one that the Beat Bugs have met and can even directly talk to using a device that Crick invented. "Hey Bulldog" also shows the invention of this device, the Crickterpreter.
