History Trivia / JohnnyTest

** In Canada, the series went from Creator/{{Teletoon}} to (as of now) Creator/{{Family Channel}} & Creator/FamilyCHRGD (though reruns still air on Teletoon from time to time).

** Creator/DevenMack replaced Creator/ScottMcNeil as Mr. White for Season 7 in a recasting decision clearly brought on by the 2020 George Floyd protests that caused the entertainment industry to rethink how it handled representation of minorities onscreen. Despite that, Scott continues to voice other characters on the show like Zizrar.

* InMemoriam: Season 7 is dedicated to the memory of Adam Schlesinger, who composed the theme song and died one year before the season premiered. He was the bassist of Music/FountainsOfWayne and worked on other kids' shows such as ''Series/BigTimeRush'' and ''WesternAnimation/TUFFPuppy''.

* UnCanceled: After posting surprisingly good numbers on Creator/{{Netflix}}, the series has been revived for 2 more seasons, both premiering in 2021.

** In Canada, the series went from Creator/{{Teletoon}} to (as of now) Creator/{{Family Channel}} & Family CHRGD (though reruns still air on Teletoon from time to time).

* GenreKiller: More like ''Medium'' Killer for ''an entire country''. The show's AdoredByTheNetwork status in both the United States and Canada colliding with its vocal PeripheryHatedom is believed by some to be the main reason [[MadeInCountryX why Canadian animation has held such a negative reputation]] in the cartoon community and among cartoon reviewers since the mid-late 2000s (alongside how Creator/CartoonNetwork was relying very heavily on Canadian imports during its DorkAge over original productions (many of which were being phased out at the time), leading to a lot of resentment and mental association among American animation fans). In most people's minds, ''Johnny Test'' is the standard example of the stereotypical cheap, low-effort Canadian cartoon they always imagine and the primary representative of what Canadian animation is like; to the detriment of every CanadianSeries, ''Johnny Test'' and all the qualities that made people despise it has pretty much become the ruling stick that all Canadian cartoons (especially Teletoon shows and rigged-animation series) are measured by in the animation fandom - which is all quite ironic as ''Johnny Test'' features heavy amounts of production involvement from the United States.

* InMemoriam: Season 7 is dedicated to the memory of Adam Schlesinger, who sung the theme song before he died. He was the lead singer of Music/FountainsOfWayne and worked on other kids' shows such as ''Series/BigTimeRush'' and ''WesternAnimation/TUFFPuppy''.

* TheOtherDarrin:
** Louis Chirillo was replaced with Creator/TrevorDevall as Dukey for Seasons 5-6. It's very noticeable, with the voice pitch changed completely and Trevor struggling to keep the same inflections with obvious throat pain (going by the rough, scratchy noises). And for all his effort, he just ends up sounding like Hugh Test.
** Mary and Sissy were voiced by Brittney Wilson in Season 1 before Creator/AshleighBall took over. For whatever reason, Brittney returned for Season 5 (it was generally assumed Ashleigh was busy with ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' when Season 5 was recorded) before Ashleigh resumed the roles again for Season 6.
** The original pilot used to pitch the show used American voice actors (with Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor as Johnny Test) before switching to Canadian voice actors for the series proper. Despite this, James kept his role since the Canadian voice actor that replaced him didn't sound close enough to his voice, and so he redubbed the dialogue and kept his role for the rest of the series.
** Creator/DevenMack replaced Creator/ScottMcNeil as Mr. White for Season 7 in a recasting decision clearly brought on by the 2020 George Floyd protests that caused the entertainment industry to rethink how it handled representation of minorities onscreen. Despite that, Scott continues to voice other characters on the show like Zizrar.
** Both Brittney Wilson and Ashleigh Ball get replaced by Creator/EmilyTennant as Mary for season 7.
** Is confirmed that the Mexican Spanish dub for the revival, while a few voice actors reprise their roles from the original series (Georgina Sánchez as Susan for the first two seasons before getting Darrin'd by Romina Marroquín Payró for the rest of the sries, Dafnis Fernández as Hubert and Adriana Moreno as Lila), other voice actores are replaced, with Carlos Hernández taking over the role of Johnny Test in the lieu of the now retired Ernesto Lezama, Luis Fernando Orozco now voicing Dukey instead of Creator/LuisDanielRamirez, and Creator/EduardoGarza now voicing Bling-Bling Boy instead of Gabriel Ortiz.
*** Curiously enough, both are the [[DirectedByCastMember dub directors]] of the series (Ortiz in the original after taking duties from the late Vicky Burguoa, and Garza in the revival).
* RoleReprise: Curiosly enough, the Japanese dub of the 2021 series brought back almost all the original cast from the previous series.

** It's just as bad, if not even worse, in Canada, since Season 2 and beyond are produced there. However, Creator/{{Teletoon}} aired [[SeasonalRot Season 6]] over and over again, but enjoys the show as much as [[Creator/CartoonNetwork the American broadcaster]]. Season 1 only aired on the channel for a very short time before Season 2 was produced, likely because Teletoon no longer owns the rights to the [[ScrewedByTheLawyers American-produced Season 1]].

* FlagshipFranchise: Shares this status with ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' for Creator/{{Teletoon}}, being one of the channel’s longest-running and most famous shows, as well as being AdoredByTheNetwork. Unfortunately, the widespread hatred people held for the show has made Teletoon a deeply-maligned name in the infamous online “cartoon community”.

** It also seems to be the case with WildBrain alongside ''WesternAnimation/Caillou'', as the 2 shows are seen a-lot and have a huge presence in their promotion material, social media and their television schedules (Family Channel & and it's sister channels, CHRGD and Jr.), this espeically became the case when both shows got revived not only on Television but also web shorts (titled "The Lost Web Series" and "New Adventures" respectively).

** From The [=CW4Kids=] (formerly Kids WB!) to Cartoon Network, made official with the fourth season, with season 6 airing all of its episode on CN’s sister channel Creator/{{Boomerang}} ahead of their telecasts on Cartoon Network. The revival was released on Creator/{{Netflix}}.

* CompletelyDifferentTitle: The Middle Eastern dubs, specifically the Arabic and Persian dubs are called ''جوني وعائلة العباقرة'' (English: ''Johnny and His Family of Geniuses'') and ''جانی ازمایشی'' (English: either ''Johnny Experiment'', ''Experimental Life'', ''Johnny Experimental'' or ''Experimental Johnny''), which are very different than the original title, the Arabic dub however later averted this by changing the show back to its' original title.

** Reruns of the series on Boomerang only ran for a year until being removed in mid-2016, after that, it hasn't been seen on US airwaves ever since, and it's unknown if it will ever return to Boomerang or at the very least the main Cartoon Network channel nor if any other channel like Creator/UniversalKids or Starz Kids & Family will pick the show up for syndication.

** Production company example: From Creator/WarnerBrosAnimation to Creator/CookieJarEntertainment from season 2 until the company was bought by DHX Media (now Creator/WildBrain) in its sixth season. Cookie Jar also bought the rights to the first season from Warner Bros. as the latter company had no interest in keeping the rights to the show.

** In Seasons 5-6, Trevor Devall voices Dukey, Mr. Teacherman, Mark West, Phobious [=McPhobe=].

** The series' Japanese dub only covers the first season.
** The Arabic dub only covered the first 2 seasons and never dubbed the rest.
** Most of the Scandinavian dubs only cover the first 3 seasons, the only Scandinavian dub to cover the whole series so far is the Norwegian dub.
** The Hebrew dub only dubbed season 4 and onwards.

** Its current broadcaster, Creator/{{Family Channel}} isn't much better, as during 2019-mid 2020, ''Johnny Test'', alongside with ''WesternAnimation/BoyGirlDogCatMouseCheese'', ''WesternAnimation/RainbowButterflyUnicornKitty'', ''Grizzy and the Lemmings'', and ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' filled up most of the network's schedule, pretty much making them the channel's main darlings. However, nowadays ''Grizzy and the Lemmings'' and ''WesternAnimation/RainbowButterflyUnicornKitty'' have left the schedule and the other shows had their airtimes reduced a bit and Johnny Test has since moved to Family's sister network CHRGD.

* GenreKiller: More like ''Medium'' Killer for ''an entire country''. The show's AdoredByTheNetwork status in both the United States and Canada colliding with its vocal PeripheryHatedom's efforts to find everything wrong with the show is believed by some to be the main reason [[MadeInCountryX why Canadian animation has held such a negative reputation]] in the cartoon community and among cartoon reviewers since the mid-late 2000s. Indeed, the stigma against Canadian animation as low-effort, poorly animated, and cheaply produced is most closely associated with ''Johnny Test'', which has become the face and representative example of Canadian animation for many. This was certainly not helped by the fact that during its DorkAge at the time, Creator/CartoonNetwork was relying very heavily on Canadian imports over original productions (many of which were being phased out at the time), leading to a lot of resentment from older American animation fans.

* AshcanCopy: Canadian content laws require that television networks broadcast at least a handful of shows produced in their country (not to mass-produce cartoons as is frequently claimed; the same laws also apply to live-action shows like ''Series/CornerGas'' and ''Series/MurdochMysteries''). This likely explains why ''Johnny Test'' continued as long as it did despite its massive hatedom and increasingly minuscule budget, being a quick and cheap way Creator/{{Teletoon}} could get around the law and maintain a cable channel in the nation (not to mention that its ratings were good enough to recoup its budget with ease). Also whoever was in charge of the producers at Creator/CookieJarEntertainment must have really loved funding new episodes of the series, because it ended up being Teletoon's longest-running show alongside ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'' and ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'', while the vast majority of other shows made for Teletoon (including many much more well-received series) [[ShortRunners only ran for about 13-26 episodes]].
