Each commercial in Butterfinger Ice Cream Nuggets begins with the announcer saying - "And try new Butterfinger Ice Cream Nuggets" (except the "Maggie's Party" commercial which ended with Bart saying the candy's tagline - "Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger!").

Each commercial in Butterfinger BB's ended with Bart saying the candy's tagline - "Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger!" or the announcer saying "And try new Butterfinger BB's" (in the mid 1990s, a prefix saying "BB's" and the late 1990s have say "Butterfinger BB's").
