=== Other shorts === * Surprising Shorts β The only short segment not to have recurring characters, these shorts usually had nothing to do with any previous shorts included on the show. This segment was exclusive to season 1, and was usually introduced by June pulling down Henry's pants, revealing his unflattering and garishly colored boxer shorts, hence the name. ** Lava! β Originally titled in France as ''Guano!'', these shorts typically featured animals partaking in cartoonish situations. These were edited out of international airings and future reruns for copyright issues by [[Vivendi]], as they own [[Canal+ (French TV channel)|Canal+]], which co-produced the shorts, although the credits for the short may still be intact. Some of the original ''Guano!'' shorts contained more inappropriate elements than what was featured on the show. This segment appeared 4 times throughout season 1, and once in season 2, without the Surprising Shorts introduction. ** Anemia and Iodine β One-time short. A cartoon displaying the misadventures of a Goth girl cat and her skateboarding, hyperactive best friend. It was created by alternative comics artist [[Krystine Kryttre]] and was directed by Robert Scull, most noted for his earlier work on [[Rocko's Modern Life]], and shares visual similarities to that show as a result. ** [[Angela Anaconda]] β A cutout-photo short that was later spun off into a stand-alone Canadian-animated series on the [[History of Freeform (TV channel)#Fox Family|Fox Family Channel]] and was briefly rerun on [[Nickelodeon]] as well as [[Starz|Starz Kids and Family]] in the United States. This series is about a girl named Angela, who is a social outcast. She finds herself unpopular in school and always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. [[Angela Anaconda#Nanette Manoir|Nanette]], a faux-French girl who everyone loves and wants to be, always mocks Angela. During each episode, a poem-like story is narrated by Angela. She often gets her revenge on the antagonist of that particular episode, and more often ''imagines'' her revenge on the said antagonist in a highly exaggerated manner. Due to copyrights being held with Fox, the repeated ''KaBlam!'' shorts were banned airing on Nicktoons. Some people believe this is the reason why any season/series DVD release can't become a reality. It appeared twice in season 1, with only the first appearance being introduced as a Surprising Short. Nanette, Johnny, and Mrs. Brinks had different voice actors in the original short. * [[JetCat]] β A segment about a girl who has an identity as a cat superhero and flies around and saves her city. She says she "flies like a jet and fights like a cat." This is the only short that takes place outside of the comic book. It was featured as a comic in ''[[Nickelodeon Magazine]]'' for a short time. The music was composed by ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'' composer [[Pat Irwin]]. Created by [[Jay Stephens]] of ''[[Tutenstein]]'' fame. * Race Rabbit β A live-action show about a romantic rabbit racer with a British accent who competes in races, but there is trouble along the way caused by the Boolies (Zit and Winston), his human enemies. Race Rabbit always wins the race, foiling the Boolies' plans. The only ''KaBlam!'' short was created in the United Kingdom and produced by [[Scott Fellows]], who also created the later show ''[[Johnny Test]]''. * The Adventures of PatchHead β A live-action/animated segment about a barefoot kid with a watermelon for a hat and has a Southern Accent, stopping cheaters from winning competitions. This short is notable for featuring an early appearance by [[Nick Offerman]]. * The Brothers Tiki β A puppetry/stop-motion/live-action segment about two extraterrestrials resembling mini tiki statues (equivalent to lawn gnomes), who land on Earth in a ship bearing a striking resemblance to a barbecue grill. * Fuzzball β A non-recurring cartoon about a tomboy who tries to win back her father's trophy, which she broke. Created by [[Kevin Dougherty]]. * The Louie and Louie Show β A short that appears only once on the show. Two neglected pets (a hamster and a chameleon), both named Louie, try to get some attention from their owners, who are all too busy playing with the family dog. This short was animated by [[Gary Baseman]] and directed by [[Tom McGrath (animator)|Tom McGrath]]. An early version, produced by [[Curious Pictures]], also aired on Nickelodeon once by itself before ''KaBlam!'' premiered. The only ''KaBlam!'' short to have a "Nickelodeon presents" logo at the beginning. Louie the chameleon is voiced by [[James Belushi]], and Louie the hamster is voiced by [[Billy West]]. * Little Freaks β Another one-time cartoon. Three freaky superheroes try to stop a villain from controlling the world's fashion trends. When it aired on Nicktoons by itself, the "KaBlam! Presents" at the beginning was absent. * The Shizzagee β One-off short about the only existing creature of its kind who resembles a coyote and lives with his owner named Brutus. It is the only computer-animated short to air on ''KaBlam!''. * The Girl With Her Head Coming Off β one time short created by [[Emily Hubley]]. * Randall Flan's Incredible Big Top β one time short about a traveling circus ringmaster who must prevent his blue lion from performing in a town who hates blue lions. * [[Untalkative Bunny]] β a one-time short that finally got a series in the early 2000s that, like Angela Anaconda, was produced by Canada's [[Teletoon]]. This short had previously aired on an episode of ''[[Cartoon Sushi]]''. * Garbage Boy β one-off short animated in a collage-based art style about a kid who can make items out of garbage. * Emmett Freedy β one-off short animated in stop-motion where a kid gets a piece of cereal stuck in his hair that is mistaken for lice. * Stewy the Dog Boy β one-off short about a dog who acts like a boy, similar to ''[[Teacher's Pet (TV series)|Disney's Teacher's Pet]]''. * Dave, Son of Hercules β a one-off short about a preteen boy who is the son of the Roman god [[Hercules]] and is embarrassed by him. This was animated by the same people who did the Henry & June segments. There were also various [[They Might Be Giants]] music videos for the songs "Why Does the Sun Shine?" and "Doctor Worm". In addition, there were music videos of "Pizza Rocket" abd "Hockey Monkey", created by [[James Kochalka]]. The former was also performed by [[The Zambonis]]. These were a mixture of live-action by Jesse Gordon and different animation styles, all produced and directed at The Ink Tank.
