This episode is a repeat of Sleepytime on Sesame Street (1989). However, in addition to most of the inserts being different, there are a few omissions from the main story line. The third scene, which features Hoots listening to night sounds and Oscar singing "A Little Grouch Music", is cut completely, perhaps because one of the sounds Hoots hears is a crying Gabriela, who by now was no longer a baby. Also, during the sixth scene, with Bob taking nighttime calls from Owls, the call from one named Owlfred asking how Hooper's looks in the daytime, is also cut.
