Line 69:
Hank: Eric's right!
Eric [[The Complainer Is Always Wrong|I am?]]}}
:* On the ''other'' hand, in the episode where Eric opens a chest that releases the [[Sealed Evil in A Can]] within, Eric is only too willing to take full responsibility for the stupid move - until Dungeon Master points out he had asked permission - from Hank - before opening it.
* According to the scriptwriter Michael Edens, the [[Disney Death]] of {{spoiler|Alec Deleon}} in ''[[Exo Squad]]'' was caused by [[Executive Meddling]]. Originally, he was supposed to be [[Killed Off for Real]] as early as in the destruction of {{spoiler|Mars}}, as foreshadowed in a [[Dream Sequence]] six episodes before that.
* This gained a combined [[Take That]] and [[Lampshade Hanging]] upon the [[Retool]] of ''[[Pinky and The Brain]]'' into ''Pinky, [[Tiny Toon Adventures|Elmyra]], and the Brain'', in the form of the retool-explaining [[Expository Theme Tune]]: ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qy_-KBvO8Ek So Pinky and the Brain / Share a new domain / It's what the network wants / Why bother to complain? ...]''
Line 191 ⟶ 192:
** In the episode "Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater," one of the cutaway gags was supposed to show a man and a woman silhouette's making out and the woman slides down and off the screen as the man tilts his head back and smiles from the blowjob he was getting. The FOX network decided this was to risque and demanded the animators to shorten the scene, fighting with the animators frame by frame until they reached an agreement. The edited version shows the woman sliding down only 1 or 2 frames until the next frame showing diamonds cuts in.
** Many jokes and gags in the syndicated runs are either edited or cut out completely.
* ''[[Bucky O'Hare and the Toad Wars]]'' was, in fact, a far better cartoon than most give it credit for, but it was intended to be a new merchandise-driven cash cow. (They even lampooned the concept, advertisements for the series portrayed as breaking news stories interrupting shows on a Toad-owned network, complete with commercials) The plans for the toyline fell through, however, [[Executive Meddling|the primary reason the folks in charge decided to cancel it.]]
