Trivia
- Molly has two relatives: a cousin named Henrietta and a nephew named Eddie.
- The first time Molly has appeared in a story setting was in Episode 6.
- Molly is one of the few female characters in the series to not have eyelashes.
- This was averted in Episode 26, where Isabel gave Molly eyelashes during Herbert's birthday. Thus, this makes Molly the only female hippo to be given eyelashes.
- Despite being friendly, hippos are very unpredictable and dangerous. Hippos are considered among the most dangerous animals in Africa.
- Molly is the only animal from Africa to tell stories that take place in Australia.
- She and Boris are the only narrators not from Australia that tell stories that take place in Australia.
- Molly's name is of English and Irish origin meaning "star of the sea", despite Molly herself being a hippo, which is obviously a semi-aquatic animal.
