History GodNeverSaidThat / WesternAnimation

** In the DVD commentary for Book 1 of ''Korra'', the creators revealed that when the show only still intended as a mini-series, Asami was going to end up in the United Forces and start a relationship with Zuko's grandson Iroh. They said that when she told Mako, his reply would have been "The heck, he's like 36!" which a lot of fans took to mena that 36 is his canonical age in Book 1. While Iroh is supposed to be a bit older than then 18-year-old Asami, he's not that much older. It's still a pervasive misconception but the discarded joke in context is clearly an exaggeration for comedic effect. The joke is also about Asami [[YoungerThanTheyLook looking older than she is]], not about Iroh looking [[OlderThanTheyLook younger than he is]].

** The crew never specifically debunked the theory related to the above twist. What they did say was stuff like [[spoiler:"Her name is Rose QUARTZ"]], [[ExactWords which turned out to be true in the end.]]

* It was once said that Creator/CraigMcCracken himself [[ApprovalOfGod gave his blessing]] on the ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls2016'' reboot. What he [[https://twitter.com/CrackMcCraigen/status/736286528259788802 actually]] [[https://twitter.com/CrackMcCraigen/status/736294454739369985 said]] was that he wished they ''hadn't'' rebooted the show, but he [[MoneyDearBoy understands why it was done.]]
Even the [[WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998 original series]] isn't safe from this. It has been stated that Creator/CraigMcCracken hated the Rowdyruff Boys because he was tired with the DracoinLeatherPants treatment of them, and left them out the 10th anniversary special "The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!" out of spite because of it. This has been debunked, since he clarified that he thinks the Boys are great characters and that the real reason he left them out [[https://twitter.com/CrackMcCraigen/status/1536833610463842305 was because they were not independent villains, and extensions of Mojo Jojo and HIM.]]

** When supervising director Jim Miller said that the show and [[ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW the comics]] [[https://derpibooru.org/830332 would "remain separate",]] a VocalMinority happened to take those words to mean [[CanonDiscontinuity the comics aren't canon]]. What he actually meant that nothing major from the comics would be integrated into the show in order to avoid ContinuityLockOut between the show and comics.[[note]]''WesternAnimation/EquestriaGirls'' stories get no mention in the show for the same reason.[[/note]] When accused by a fan of declaring the comics as "non-canon", [[https://i.imgur.com/w9GWtF6.png Miller made it clear that "separate" and "non-canon" mean two different things.]]

* WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts: During an interview done in the wake of the publication of his biography on Creator/WaltDisney, Neal Gabler claimed that Walt "absolutely hated" the WesternAnimation/{{Goofy}} cartoons, thinking they were nothing but "stupid cartoons with gags tied together." However, there is no primary source to confirm that Walt actually said that. The fact that Neal Gabler didn't cite all his sources--a ''major'' flaw for a biographer--doesn't help.[[note]]If anything, Harry Tytle, who actually worked with Walt, is a more reliable source on the matter; according to his book ''One of Walt's Boys'', in a chapter called "Shorts Go Out of Style," Walt's main issue with the Goofy cartoons was the difficulties they posed during the waning years of TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation, especially when it came to merchandising.[[/note]]

* Gerry Anderson once said that ''Film/TeamAmericaWorldPolice'' was closer in spirit to his show ''WesternAnimation/{{Thunderbirds}}'' than that film's LiveActionAdaptation. Some accounts exaggerate this, saying that he liked ''Team America''. This was not actually the case. Anderson didn't like ''Team America'', all he said was that it was closer in spirit to his show, with the context being less praise of ''Team America'' and more a TakeThat to the live-action film.

They said that when she told Mako, his reply would have been "The heck, he's like 36!" which got taken out of context. While Iroh is supposed to be a bit older than then 18-year-old Asami, he's not that much older, being age 22. It's still a pervasive misconception but the discarded joke in context is clearly an exaggeration for comedic effect. The joke is also about Asami [[YoungerThanTheyLook looking older than she is]], not about Iroh looking [[OlderThanTheyLook younger than he is]].

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}''': It's commonly stated that WordOfGod confirmed that the titular character is a rainbow baby, a child born after a miscarriage. In fact, while Joe Brumm did state that Chilli had a miscarriage, he never specified if it was before or after Bluey's birth.
