Vignettes
Opening Prologue
This was the show's opening, before anything major happened.
"Once upon a time, not so long ago, in a supermarket not so far away... There was Phred That's Phred with a P-H!. Phred was one of the kajillion little mascots for Phantasic Pickles! Phred was leisured. He means bored and so is everyone else, so get to the juicy part of the story, please! When all of a sudden, Phred's jar of pickles rolled wildly. He saw things he'd never seen before! Sweet pickles, dill pickles, chunky beef. Woah! Help me, find me, please! I'm free! And then...I'll take it from here. Then, I told her I was curious. I wanted to know stuff. I needed a place to think. And faster than you can say "Not delicious!" three times, she transported me to a whole new world! And now, Phred lives in the dot of Noggin.com, but since he's so fun to foreheads, he hops from noggin to noggin to host his very own TV show! And that's how I went from pickle jar to TV star!"
Doug episodes
In the one hour version of the episodes, while Phred was looking for the host, an episode of the first Nicktoon, Doug, would air.
Very Own Personal Theme Song
When the host came into Phred's dot, he suggested that they listen to the host's very own personal theme song (designed by Tricky Pictures). It went like this:
- (name)x5
- This is (name)'s very own personal theme song
- On the Phred on Your Head Show (That's "Phred" with a P-H)
- Now that your noggin's turned to Noggin, let's get noggin' along
- On the Phred on Your Head Show (That's "Show" with an S-H)
- With (name) as your host, we'll show your favorite shows, we'll hear about what you know, and play Pickles to Pluto
- And check out what's online* (Hey that last line didn't rhyme!)
- Did we mention online?
- It's Noggin.com
- It's where we get a lot of stuff and then we put it on the show* (Hello?)
- So let's end this song before it gets too long (Too late!)
- (name) is our host with the most as you know
- (Opening): And now without further ado, coming to you directly from (name)'s forehead.
- (Closing): We've hoped you've enjoyed the Phred on Your Head Show with (name) as your host
- It's the Phred (with a P-H) on Your Head Shooooow!
Lyrics with * mean the same thing as Note # 2.
Dirk Niblick of the Math Brigade
There would also be a Dirk Niblick of the Math Brigade case from Square One TV.
Snick Snack
There would also be a Snick Snack or Short Films by Short People short film from Nickelodeon.
Phred's Got Mail
Phred would get mail and answer the question it contained. Once, Phred got a letter asking if he has ever been to Kentucky. Phred explained about Kentucky, but later tells the audience that he has never even been to Kentucky!
"Noggin" Commercials
Noggin-made commercials would occasionally air on both formats of "Phred".
Street Skits
Sometimes, a skit from Sesame Street aired on Phred, usually the one-hour format.
Cecile and her Very Own Universe
On the final 5 episodes of the show, an animated segment, "Cecile and her Very Own Universe", would be shown.
Mathnet Portion
After the second-to-last scene plays in the weekday version, a case from Mathnet (also from Square One TV) shows without an introduction from either the host or Phred. The case would be aired one part at a time (i.e. one episode had part one, and four episodes later the fifth and final part of the case would air). "Mathnet" was an obvious affectionate parody of the popular police procedural drama show Dragnet and included music from that series by permission.
