** Despite the show clearly being high in the ratings, it wasn't renewed for a third season because a change in management and the CEO apparently not "getting it". If that wasn't bad enough, the show was written off and now can no longer be legally aired on the network (it was a miracle that the characters from the show could make background cameos in the bumpers during CN's 20th anniversary and Kiva TakenForGranite in the ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes'' episode "[[Recap/OKKOLetsBeHeroesS2E18CrossoverNexus Crossover Nexus]]", but that is sadly it) and likewise could never get a DVD release either, essentially leaving the show in internet limbo. Even years later, when the creators tried to get the show back for the Toonami revival, they were answered with a note essentially telling them that CN was in no way interested in bringing back the series. Considering how determined CN is about keeping the show from coming back, you'd think someone there had a grudge against this series.

* WordOfDante: A persistent rumour online is that Coop's real name is Harold. Coop's name was never revealed in the show, and the creators have likewise never confirmed a real name. The name likely comes from a fanfic writer.

** However, [[https://twitter.com/GeorgeKrstic/status/1306285585770848258 George Krstic]] has said that the IP is in AT&T's hands. There is a chance Megas XLR ''could'' come to streaming services, however no new money can be made off the original show. That doesn't rule out the possibility of a reboot, but that's out of Krstic's, Jody Schaffer's, and Chris Prynoski's hands.
