​Notes

 * The title (& parts of the show itself) is a parody of the classic novel Gulliver's Travels .
 * The show appears to use some elements from Larry's Lagoon (from God Wants Me to Forgive Them!?! & the PC game The Mystery of Veggie Island.
 * The show is similar to King George & the Ducky as they're both based on stories from the scriptures that teach mainly on the seriousness of sexual immorality, though that has been lowered & the stories were focused on other lessons tied.
