Sinopsis

Each episode contains some common elements that occur throughout the episode. At the beginning of each performance, Loonette does a regular exercise called the Stretching of the Carpet Watch, and towards the end, he performs a high-speed cleaning routine called Ten Seconds.

Other elements that are often repeated include reading stories for Molly, who occasionally choose stories to hear, giving Loonette books and large glasses, or turning on lights for Loonette; met the dust bunny who stayed under the couch; visits to various places in Clowntown, songs that emphasize lessons or episode themes, and trips to Granny Garbanzo's garden and home. Here he meets Snicklefritz, Grandmother's cat, Major Bedhead, a local mail delivery clown, who travels on a tricycle; and of course, Grandma herself. Conversation with Grandma is often used as a moment that can be taught in episodes, where Granny offers advice or lessons on Loonette, often with the help of Major Bedhead, who gives gifts and messages from Aunt Macassar or Uncle Chester. All episodes end with Loonette and Molly taking a nap and sometimes reminding viewers to remember the rules on today's episode.

In the 7th season, Loonette and Molly play the Dream Game and Molly gives the letter that the dream starts and gives what they will dream of. In season 6, Loonette and Molly went to Doll School where Molly studied alphabet and numbers. A similar element used in seasons 1-3 (and in one episode of Season 5) is the Alphabet Games, where certain letters are displayed on a giant alphabetical block and Loonette uses certain words beginning with that letter and also making the shape of the letters with his body for making viewers guess the letter.

Along with lessons and problem-solving sequences, the show also emphasizes imaginative play. This episode often occurs in the context of a visit to Clowntown, such as Grandma Garbanzo Cabbage Cooking School and Chicken Slut Main Chi Dojo and Dancing School. In addition, Loonette is gifted in classical dance art and runs Miss Loonette Dance Academy. From Seasons 1 to 6, Loonette is too young to visit Clowntown alone, but in Season 7, he often visits Clowntown, and volunteers at Clowndergarten, where he teaches games, songs, and young clown stories. This imaginative game is also shown through dressing games and through the Loonette doll, where she imagines the Foley Family adventure. First seen as a doll-sized family, in Loonette's imagination they will become a regular-sized clown family, whose actions are shown at great speed and with background music in the old silent film style. Foleys did not speak. Early in the first season, Molly found Dust Bunnies. However, Loonette does not believe that there is a dust bunny under the couch.

Both lounges on the couch throughout the day, with the exception of the Carpet Watch Stretch and daily adventures, sometimes involving Grandma or Head of Main Bed, postal service clerks who also play small parts. Each day includes some songs and stories (which, when told by Loonette, involves him wearing large yellow glasses and holding a blue story book); and concluded with the Second Ten Seconds and a pleasant nap. After the final credits were over, Loonette said, "And the clown was jumping over the moon" with him and Molly jumped over.
