* [[Executive Meddling]]: According to the [[Word of God]], Batwoman had her civilian identity changed from Kathy Kane to Katrina Moldoff after DC Comics executives voiced concerns about how the negative portrayal on the show might impact sales of the current ''[[Batwoman]]'' comic book series, which stars the similarly-named "Kate Kane".

* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: [[Will Friedle]] (Terry/Batman in ''[[Batman Beyond]]'', Gearhead in ''[[The Batman]]'', Lion-O in ''[[Thundercats 2011]]'') as [[Blue Beetle]], [[Tom Kenny]] (The Penguin from ''[[The Batman]]'', [[SpongeBob SquarePants]]) as Plastic Man, [[John Dimaggio]] (Bender in ''[[Futurama]]'', Marcus Fenix in ''[[Gears of War]]'', Gilgamesh in ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]'', Brute Chieftains in ''[[Halo 3]]'') as AQUAMAN, and last but not least, [[Diedrich Bader]], ''[[Korgoth of Barbaria]]'' and [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy|Hoss Delgado]], as Batman himself.

** [[John Dimaggio]] was also Kimahri and Wakka from ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'', which makes it hilarious whenever he teams up with Green Arrow (as stated below, [[James Arnold Taylor]] played Tidus). This version of Aquaman even has a water sword, like Wakka's brother's sword Brotherhood.

** The reason [[Tom Kenny]] plays Plas is because he had the role in a pilot for a Plastic Man cartoon that was never picked up. The creators liked how he did in the pilot, and gave him the role just so he could play him again.

* [[Screwed by the Network]]: If giving the final season 13 episodes when the first two had 26 wasn't enough Cartoon Network also managed to anger the fans more by airing the season's episodes with weeks, sometimes a month, between new episodes and without much promotion.

* [[What Could Have Been]]: In "Game Over for Owlman," according to [[Word of God]], it was considered including [[Batman Beyond|Terry McGinnis]] as one of the alternate Batmen.
