- TriviaOriginally, this show made up its own rating known as "GB-7", because, as they said, it may be too spooky for children under seven. This lasted until the TV rating system began in 1996, and from then on, it was officially given a "TV-Y7" rating.
- GoofsThroughout the series, it's clear the monsters or effects are 'fake-looking' or cheesy. However, lower-budget shows have different 'rules' than others with a higher-budget. It's been stated that viewing this series requires 'suspension of disbelief'.
- Crazy credits"Goosebumps is rated GB-7 because it may be too spooky for children under 7." This disclaimer appears on early episodes, before the "actual" television content ratings were introduced, at which point it became rated "TV-Y7."
- Alternate versionsSome of the two-part episodes are edited into one double-length episode for the DVD release. The opening credits for Part 2 is removed, along with the "previously" footage and the credit overlays for the beginning of Part 2.

Featured review
Stine TV
Back in the nineties, during the Pre-Potter era. My generation was being delighted by the works of R.L. Stine and his magnificent book series "Goosebumps." Between 1992 and 1995 I myself read some great ones like "Monster Blood," and it's two sequels, "Say Cheese and Die," "Ghost Bead," "Deep Trouble," and the greatest one of them all "The Haunted Mask." So obviously in 1995 when FOX Kids premiered this show I watched it. And Loved it! The show's adaptation wasn't very accurate but it was still entertaining and faithful to the novels. This was a great show, not scary but neither were the books. It's just a nice entertaining show from an entertaining series.
