Circus of Threes is the fourth episode of Season 8 of Numberblocks. This is the 109th episode in the series overall.
This is also the first appearance of the Numberblobs in Season 8.
Unlike the other Times Tables released:
This episode is the first (if not only) times tables episode to have Numberblocks that don't belong in the times table.
This is the first episode where the times table's first words aren't "Welcome" and they aren't resting.
This is the first times-tables episode where the multiplying by 3 part is not at a verse that is higher than verse 2.
Uniquely, this is the only Times Table...
...to only have one actual multiplication part, being the "Sideways!" part.
...to not end on a "Sideways!" part.
This is the first (and possibly) only time where when Nine sneezes, he becomes different Numberblocks besides Eight and One. Instead, he becomes three Threes.
In "Ten Again", when Nine sneezed, he just rearranges into a vertical arrangement.
The final verses of the song, "So please raise the roof and give a big hand" is a reference to Thirty's Big Top, where ten fours raise the roof and ten fives give a big hand.
Interestingly, this is Five's first appearance in Season 8.
21 is also seen with rays in another Season 8 episode, Figure It Out.
In one scene, there were 11 Threes.
