- 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
Ahh The Memories!
When I was a kid my all time favourite show was the Goosebumps TV show and of course the books as well. Some of them really scared me and give me nightmares. My favourite character was Slappy the living dummy.
I'm now 16 and I must say that the show is not at all scary to me anymore as I've watched many far more shocking things since the Goosebumps days. We all agree that the show was made for children which we all were when we loved it.
This is a really good show for children to view, but when you get older its just plain funny. My favourite episodes and books are still Welcome to Dead House, The Haunted Mask, Ghost Beach, The Ghost Next Door, Night of the living Dummy 2 and A Night in Terror Tower.
I would overall give RL Stines Goosebumps 10/10 stars as a good young person's creepy show. It will always remain a classic to me due to all the little thrills RL Stine and his wonderful book series give me whilst I was growing up.
