Mythology Gag
 Talking Friends / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The wallpapers inside Tom and Ben's trailers are based on the living rooms of Talking Tom 2 and Talking Ben respectively. In the episode "Newserator", the scene where the townspeople attack Pierre by throwing tomatoes at him is a reference to an option in Talking Pierre where you can throw tomatoes at Pierre.

Early Adaptation Weirdness
 Talking Friends / int_26fd153
comment
Early Adaptation Weirdness: This is the only Talking Tom cartoon to feature physically the characters of Pierre and Gina, who both dissapeared from the franchise in 2016. Likewise, this is the only Talking Tom cartoon that doesn't feature Hank, as he was not created yet. Tom, Angela and Ginger have very high-pitched voices that heavily contrast with child-like voices from current games or their more natural sounding voices from Talking Tom and Friends, althought this is loyal to the games at the time, where these characters had high-pitched voices. Angela is completely naked. In later adaptations, Angela is now shown fully clothed. The main cast live in a trailer park in the middle of a desert, rather than a suburban house like in later adaptations.

Advertised Extra: The Hand. In the teaser trailer, The Hand was shown as one of the main characters, but in the show, it only appears in the opening, in the transitions and a little gag from the episode "Newserator".

Shout-Out
 Talking Friends / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Episode 5, "Rock the Catsbah", is a pun on The Clash's "Rock the Casbah". The name of episode 9, "Angry Parrots", refers to Angry Birds. Episode 10, "Tom After Tom", is a pun on the phrase "time after time", most likely referring to the Cyndi Lauper song of the same name since the episode includes throwbacks to various decades, including the 80's. In the above episode, Tom drops a lot of 80s references, including quoting Mr. T's "I pity the fool" line, saying the 80s were "bad to the bone! B-b-b-b-bad!", a reference to "Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood and the Destroyers, and mentioning Madonna in his song. Pierre's 50's look includes a hairdo resembling that of Elvis Presley; his song is also in a similar style to Elvis' music.
