Trivia

 * The Dutch DVD release was going to be released for March 24th, 2015, but the date was pushed to May 26th of the same year.
 * The DVD includes the trailer of The Adventure Begins.
 * This DVD came out the same day as The Adventure Begins in the US and they were in the Walmart exclusive DVD pack.
 * The Mr. Perkins segments are switched around.
 * This is the last US DVD to date, aside from the specials, to feature French narration as a language selection along with English and Spanish. After this the US non-special DVDs only featured English and Spanish and did not feature French.
 * According to Ryan Hagan of SiF, the episodes in the DVD were going to be part of Season 19.
 * This DVD is used as Disc 2 of The Complete Series 18 DVD as a bonus disc distributed by Mattel Creations but nothing has changed as it starts with the HiT Entertainment logo and has its same advertisements.

Goofs

 * David Baas is mistakenly credited as the director during the opening of the UK and Australian DVDs.
 * In the end credits, William Middleton is credited for the Edward and Gordon illustrations, even though they were re-done by C. Reginald Dalby.
 * The UK DVD said the main feature is 60 minutes, but the bonus features are paired with the episodes.
 * On the US DVD, Keith Wickham is credited twice.
 * On the back cover of the Australian DVD:
 * Annie's graphic is not aligned correctly so part of her frame appears to be missing.
 * It states that the release does not feature subtitles. However, subtitles are actually available on the disc.
