Starting with this season, the screen now shows a close-up of the Fiesta Trio (and what they are doing) as they play their fanfare after Dora and Boots pass a location.

However, he also says that in the Season 2 episode Whose Birthday is It?.

Additionally, after Map reviews how to get to the final destination, he says, 'So remember.' instead of 'So you tell Dora.'.

This will occur in most episodes from this season on.

This is the first season where the Fiesta Trio sings along with Map during the I'm the Map song.

This season introduces Dora's cousin, Diego and his best friend Baby Jaguar, who would later get their own show less than two years after their introduction came out, called Go, Diego, Go!.

This means that the only three characters that had their Character Find are Baby Red Fish, Little Star, and Boots respectively.

However, only three episodes use the character find segment from the previous two seasons ( Rescue, Rescue, Rescue!, ABC Animals, and Journey to the Purple Planet).

The star catching was officially introduced in the episode Star Catcher.

This also introduced the Explorer Stars, a star-catching sequence, and an Explorer Star mini-game, where the viewer gets more information on what each star has the ability to do in the end credit sequence.

If not, then the previous season is the last to do so.

Additionally, this would be the last season to use the original opening sequence if one counts the home media versions of The Lost City and Dora Had a Little Lamb.

If one counts that, then Season 2 would be the first to use the opening sequence mentioned above.

However, it was also used in the restored version of the Season 2 episodes Whose Birthday is It? and Super Spies.

This season introduced a new opening sequence that would continue onward up to the show's 6 th season.

There are a lot of changes and firsts in this season.

This season was produced in 2002, while episodes from Season 2 were airing.

In addition to that, it was also announced that Season 2 episodes were going to start premiering during the first quarter of 2002.

It is currently unknown when the rest were ordered. However, when Nickelodeon first ordered this season, they only commissioned 13 out of the 25 episodes.

This season was ordered and announced in November 2001.
