Trivia[]
- Camilla makes yet another appearance in this episode.
- The stage is the same one from Dora's Ballet Adventure.
- Map does a rap for his own song on this episode.
- This is the second episode where Map does a rap song, first being Dora's Easter Adventure.
- Additionally, the I'm the Map song (used shortly in Dora's Easter Adventure) is replaced by Check out the Map.
- During the We Did It! song, Map does not just say, "We did it", he says, "We did it, yo!".
- This is the 165th episode of the show.
- Crocodile Lake and the Gooey Geyser make cameo appearances, though unlike in Rescue, Rescue, Rescue!, Benny's balloon did not get stuck on the Gooey Geyser.
- The episode Sticky Tape is also referenced in the Crocodile Lake scene.
- Boots wears the same red bowtie from Dora's Dance to the Rescue and Dora's World Adventure!.
- Dora, Boots, and Benny don't sing the Travel Song in this episode, they instead sing about hurrying and getting back to the talent show.
- Dora doesn't use Backpack with her talent in this episode.
- This episode premiered exactly 8 years after Journey to the Purple Planet.
- Unlike Call Me Mr. Riddles, the knock-knock doors in this episode have three in total and, instead of playing Knock-Knock jokes, they (Dora, Boots, and Benny) have to knock a certain amount of times on them.
- The early Season 1 version of swiping music is used.
- Diego, Alicia, Baby Jaguar, Daisy, Diego's parents, and Mama Jaguar don't appear in this episode or didn't come to the Rainforest Talent Show (most likely because they were busy at the Animal Rescue Center).
