Did You Notice These 10 Small Details from 'Tuca and Bertie'?

#BestOfNetflix

Tuca and Bertie is an amazing Netflix Original and more specifically, an adult animated sitcom. The show is made by Cartoonist Lisa Hanawalt and voiced by several very talented people. Including Steven Yeun, the guys who plays Glenn in the walking dead. Yeah, Glens voices Speckle. If you are surprised, don't worry... I was surprised too.

Some of the other voice actors include: Tiffany Haddish, Ali Wong, John Early, Richard E. Grant, and Reggie Watts.

P.S.—Laverne Cox is in briefly. She voices Ebony Black, an agent who works for the Center for Sex Bug Control.

1. "WHY BOTHER"

When Bertie is trying to explain to Speckle what her version of porn is. She briefly pulls down her eyelids in frustration. If you pause it you can see the words "Why Bother" clearly painted on the inside of her eyelids.

2. The Chef's Code

"Make Vegetables hot and keep fruit cold." Quickly followed by: "Seriously, nobody likes hot fruit."

I mean, I don't mind hot fruit... there is a time and place for everything, even hot fruit. What about strawberry pie? That has chunks of hot strawberries in it, right?

"Never Utter the word 'Mayonnaise'..."

Some other things that are mentioned on the Chef's Code are:

  • '"Accept every cooking challenge"
  • "Never utter the word 'Mayonnaise'. Acceptable synonyms—remoulade, aioli, creamy-cream-a-roux."

Lastly, my personal favourite of the list:

  • "If it's brown, cool it down! If it's yellow, you've got a custard, fellow!"

3. How did he get there?

One of the sex bugs snuck his way into the jury. You know he's being sneaky because he is wearing that disguise...

4. 'Vegan Toilet Paper'

If you take a closer look under that sneaky Sex Bug... you can see two of the products for sale from the grocery store. One is 'Vegan Toilet Paper' and the other is a 48 pack of 'Sawdust Bars'.

5. Tuca keeps her running shoes in her fridge

Okay, so this one is a little more obvious and you may have already noticed that Tuca pulls her shoes out of the fridge... but did you notice that she just puts on her running shoes right over her other shoes?

6. Peep

Get it, instead of 'Jeep,' it's 'Peep'. Also, the license reads 'J3LL4'.

7. How to *What* your computer?

While Tuca and Bertie are looking browsing through the book store, one of the weird books that Bertie passes is titled "How to F*CK your computer"... "You know you want to by 'Jesse Buttons." I don't know why, but this one creeps me out the most.

Also, 'Self Help' and 'Self Destruction'

Another fun thing at the book store is the section titled "Self Destruction" right next to the "Self Help" section.

A part of me feels like reading from the 'Self Destruction' side instead of the 'Self Help' side... it's probably a good thing that these types of books don't actually exist... that I know of.

8. The Other Emergency Buttons

Along with the 'Sex Bugs' button there are also 'Cumin Allergy', 'BAD KALE', 'Almond Milk Levels Low' and 'Fifth Button'. Seriously though... what does the 'Fifth Button' do?

9. Eww... Pastry Pete is just gross...

For some reason I missed this the first time watching this episode. It really grosses me out... but it also kinda looks like Speckle's butt...

10. Slowly causing chaos and coming to help... slowly

That turtle on the right is a hero! Thank you, fire extinguisher turtle. In fact, thank you fire extinguisher turtles everywhere. You are appreciated.

Hello. Nice to meet you! How are you? Hmm... this feels like a really one sided conversation... why don't you follow me on social media so I can get to know you too!
