In an episode set in Manhattan, Pumbaa tells Timon, "I wanna see a Broadway show. 'Guys and Dolls!'". Nathan Lane and Ernie Sabella, the voices of Timon and Pumbaa, co-starred in the highly-successful 1992 Broadway revival of the musical "Guys and Dolls."
Timon occasionally refers to himself as "that rat-thing from O Rei Leão (1994)." This was Nathan Lane's own description of Timon.
The show features a minor antagonist named Bahuka. Bahuka was another name of the Hindu deity Nala. In the Lion King franchise, the lioness Nala is a major protagonist.
Timon has had over 3 voice actors in the series including his original role Nathan Lane from O Rei Leão (1994).
Ernie Sabella, Robert Guillaume and Jim Cummings were the only voice actors from O Rei Leão (1994) that reprised their roles of their respective characters for the TV Spin Off. The rest of the cast apart from Rowan Atkinson would eventually reprise their roles in The Lion King's Sequel and Midquel O Rei Leão 2: O Reino de Simba (1998) and O Rei Leão 3: Hakuna Matata (2004) respectively.
