According to Tom Ruegger, the show is set 30 years before Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937). This could explain that the dwarfs look younger as well as Queen Delightful (who could be Snow White's biological mother) running the kingdom instead of the Wicked Queen in the film.
According to an interview with Tom Ruegger, the show was originally supposed to be animated in Flash. After the show's pilot was made animated in that format, Ruegger decided to have the show animated in the traditional 2D style instead stating that the art style looked better in that format.
True to his nature, Bashful is usually hiding in the back of group shots of the dwarfs. In the opening title sequence, he hides behind the show's logo.
As in the movie, Dopey never speaks, but he pantomimes and whistles in a manner similar to Harpo Marx, who also never spoke while in character.
Jess Harnell (Grimm), Paul Rugg (Lord Starchbottom) and Maurice LaMarche (Grumpy) all voiced characters on the hit series 'Animaniacs.' Series creator Tom Ruegger and writer Sheri Stoner also worked on 'Animaniacs.'
