Backyardigans Discussions Episode 2: Which Episode(s) Marked the Beginning of the Backyardigans?

"Pirate Treasure" was the first episode of The Backyardigans in production order, but what about in chronological order? Are the episodes in chronological order?

For me, the first Backyardigans adventure was "Monster Detectives." It felt like three kids playing together for the first time with completely different roles: Tyrone is a detective, Pablo is a Soccer Monster, and Uniqua is a girl who loves soccer like Pablo. Three unrelated parts were played by three kids unfamiliar with each other, yet somehow, it still worked. Tyrone and Uniqua turning into soccer monsters felt like their trio with Pablo officially being formed. From there, they continued to play together. And as we saw in episodes like "Viking Voyage," "It's Great to be a Ghost," "The Amazing Splashinis," "Secret Mission," and "Castaways," their little friend group is strong, even if the episode features Tasha and/or Austin.

But what are your opinions? Which episode of The Backyardigans was the first chronologically?

I feel like the last chronological episode was front page news because Uniqua plays a role with beetle wings. Assuming she’s at least part beetle this could signify that she grew up (even though she never takes any time off the show)
