 * 2) She has a few cute running gags like continuing to ask "Why" to the people she encounters or calling his Mom "Lady" and his Dad "Mr. Man".
 * 3) Mindy finally calls her Mom "Mom" instead of "Lady" at the end of Wakko's Wish.

 * 4) Frank Welker makes a great dog impression for Buttons.

Mindy

 * 1) Despite what WTR#9 said, it can be annoying when she keeps calling people in a simple way, though it makes sense because she's a toddler.
 * 2) She often puts herself in danger, causing Buttons to get hurt trying to save her.

Buttons

 * 1) Buttons can be considered a Butt-Monkey, due to often getting injured while saving Mindy.
 * 2) He gets scolded by Mindy's parents for things he didn't do or didn't mean to. In fact, he gets scolded at the end of every episode (except Night of the Living Buttons) and never gets rewarded. However, the gag was toned down in Wakko's Wish.
