Notes[]
- This dub is notable for its usage of only 2 voice actors.
- While most songs were dubbed, the opening theme was retained from its original English version.
- Unlike most other dubs, this dub does not teach English, but rather occasionally teaches Spanish instead, similarly to the original version.
- In the dub, it is mentioned that Tico is from Spain, and the dub has Tico and Val the Octopus speak Spanish like the original.
- The usage of Spanish terminology in other characters, such as Dora, was more limited. Because of this, a point to where one episode claims that the Sleepy Sloth "speaks Portuguese", despite the fact that nearly all characters in the dub normally do.
- In this dub, the Big Red Chicken's gender is inconsistent throughout the series. In some episodes, he is referred to as a hen, while in others, he is said to be a rooster.
- Although every other episode uses the second dub on Netflix, the season 1 episode “Grandma's House” of this dub is on the service.
