* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: Among people unfamiliar with which show was made by which channel, there seems to be a recurring belief that Cartoon Network created "My Life As A Teenage Robot" rather than Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}. This may be derived from confusion with CN's ''WesternAnimation/{{Robotboy}}'', because Rob Renzetti was involved in many CN shows, or the artstyle.
