Former[]
Certain properties may or may not have characters make cameo appearances in queue tape animations every once in a while, generally depending on said properties' owners; if Carwardine has other licenses from said owners in the parks, that generally makes cameo appeances from such properties' characters more likely.
- Asteroid Andy (2011-2014)
- Bella Sara (2008-2013)
- Big Bag (1998-2005)
- Blinx: The Time Sweeper (2002-2006; License abandoned due to low popularity of the franchise)
- DreamWorks (1995-2007; lost the rights due to Simon Property Group buying out the parks)
- Dungeons & Dragons (1984-2007)
- The Electric Company (2009 series) (2009-2019; was consistently a relatively minor license with no themed attractions, etc.; license was primarily used for promotional purposes in early years, E.G. having character Paul the Gorilla (one of the only elements from the original 1971 series to carry on over to the 2009 series, as well as arguably the most prominent non-human character) hold, wave, and spin signs promoting the show; Paul's already minor role in parks would be reduced even more after 2012, generally at most making appearances during CarwardineCon at Carwardine Colony, though he would make appearances in some other parks in 2016 with a sign promoting the 2009 TEC revival airing on HBO Family (as well as in Carwardine Hotel TV loops of the time) alongside some other Sesame Workshop properties; the show itself may still be aired in Carwardine Hotel TV loops to this day (though it really depends on the loop), as might characters at the very least make background cameos in post-2019 queue tape animations (the latter case primarily due to Carwardine not completely cutting ties with SW))

- Littlest Pet Shop (1995-2007)
- Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies (1980-1984; Carwardine's Great America only, due to Marriott still operating the park and not having sold park operations or their LT/MM licenses until 1984)
