Added example(s), General clarification on work content; the Ghostface Killah version of the theme is the one I remember from when I was a child in the UK and from other videos about it. The techno version is the one that’s harder to find these days

There was hardly, if ever, a rivalry with said shows.


* DuelingShows: With ''WesternAnimation/YinYangYo'' due to both of them airing around the same time, being animal-focused works based around martial arts and sharing several different similarites such as the MentorArchetype being a panda. Since ''Skunk Fu'' is more obscure, less well-recieved and didn't get a fanbase as large as the former, ''Yin Yang Yo'' wins this duel.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Ever so much. The show was first on the WB's Saturday block, but after it shut down, it was transferred to Cartoon Network, which shown all the episodes. But then after it's first season, the show wasn't picked up by ''any network'' after that. As a result, the show was basically canned.
