URL With Phred was the spin-off series of The Phred on Your Head Show that aired on Noggin until April 1, 2002. One of the notable differences in detail is that Head's dot (in Noggin.com) was cut out pictures and the "outside" of the dot was colorful. In URL, Phred's dot looks hand-drawn and the outside of the dot is mostly blue.

After Cro, we return to Phred who does the closing (i.e. Big Voice getting instant messenger and annoying Phred and Phred accidentally letting a virus go into the computer). After the skit finishes, a female computer voice says "It is now safe to sign off the URL with Phred Show." as a window appears on the screen.
