** In "The Patterfly Effect", when Patrick goes back in time to make Bunny part race-car, both he and Squidina have wheels in the future, suggesting that Bunny is her biological mother. Additionally, her maternal grandmother, Agnes Steelhead, is a squid that vaguely resembles her granddaughter.

* ShrugOfGod: Whether or not Squidina is adopted has been inconclusive. The page for the series on Nick's website as well as the pitch bible mention the Stars assuming she is just a weird looking sea star. Storyboard artist April "Pinkie" Davis said she believes Squidina is adopted when answering a question from a fan, but the series itself has no direct evidence regarding this claim.

** According to storyboard supervisor Ian Vazquez and background artist Sterling Ricter, the series takes place in the nearby suburb of Ukulele Bottom. This is visibly shown in the episode "House Hunting", in which Squidina leads the sentient Star house back to the backyard by feeding it coffee beans. ItMakesSenseInContext. It was explained on Ian's twitter that Ukulele Bottom is often described as being part of the greater Bikini Bottom area, explaining the inconsistencies regarding its mentioning on the show.

** Cave Patrick's appearances were to be done in StopMotion. In the final show, this got moved to Dr. Plankenstein's segments.
** It's described that Squidward lives in a baby version of his Easter island head. In the show proper, it's implied that he lives with Granny Tentacles (in "Backpay Payback" and "Get Off My Lawnie").
** "Enemies a la Mode" features two ideas that were intended to be recurring bits on the show: Ouchie and Pinkeye's zany slapstick battles and Patrick's rivalry with a Goofy Goober ice cream guy. Both would all but disappear from the show after the episode.

** Rather than being distinguished through a shirt, Patrick was to wear an overly-tight blue tie around his neck. This got a MythologyGag in "Bummer Jobs," where the start of the episode has Patrick trying to put on a tie and [[CantTieHisTie ending up strangling himself]].

** One early idea was [=GrandPat=] and Squidward being friends over the fact that they can have intelligent conversations and agree on how dumb the rest of the Star family are. This never came up on the show, and "Backpay Payback" implies that [=GrandPat=] still doesn't like Squidward, preferring to carry on their family history of Stars avoiding Tentacles' and cheating them out of their money.
** Squidina had a completely different design, looking closer to her main-series design in "Goons on the Moon": she has braces and is much taller. Her character description also mentions her being a StraightMan and more "deadpan, serious" counterpart to Patrick. This aspect didn't stick in the show; while she's definitely [[FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling responsible]], Squidina likes to partake in Patrick's crazy antics when she can. Bits of her earlier personality can be seen in "Enemies a la Mode," which has a rare instance of her getting genuinely upset at Patrick and then trying to carry on the show without him.

** The characters' designs were also different. All of the Stars were pink just like Patrick. Bunny was blonde and wore a teal dress with dark blue flowers on it. Cecil wore a beige/tan version of his normal outfit. GrandPat also lacked his sweater and pants, simply looking like an older version of Patrick.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The show's pitch bible outlines a few early concepts for the show.
** One of the show's biggest appeals compared to ''[=SpongeBob=]'' and ''WesternAnimation/KampKoral'' would have been the lack of a traditional, 11 minute narrative. The show would instead switch between various skits and set pieces, going wherever Patrick's whims take him. Oftentimes, the real-world problems that Patrick encounters would affect how his show played out or what it was themed after. Effectively, a RandomEventsPlot combined with a VarietyShow. While remnants of this can be seen early on, the show abandoned this after the first few episodes.
** Rather than being distinguished through a shirt, Patrick was to wear an overly-tight blue tie around his neck. This got a MythologyGag in "Bummer Jobs," where the start of the episode has Patrick trying to put on a tie and [[CantTieHisTie ending up strangling himself]].
** The ''Patrick Show'' isn't mentioned to have a dedicated audience in the pitch bible, merely relegated to Ouchie or whoever happens to be passing by on the street. This aspect would be dropped with later episodes like "Host-a-Palooza", "[=FitzPatrick=]", and "Neptune's Ball" depicting Patrick's show with a dedicated fanbase.
** The characters' designs were also different. All of the Stars were pink just like Patrick. Bunny was blonde and wore a teal dress with dark blue flowers on it. Cecil wore a beige/tan version of his normal outfit. GrandPat also lacked his sweater and pants, simply looking like an older version of Patrick.
** One early idea was [=GrandPat=] and Squidward being friends over the fact that they can have intelligent conversations and agree on how dumb the rest of the Star family are. This never came up on the show, and "Backpay Payback" implies that [=GrandPat=] still doesn't like Squidward, preferring to carry on their family history of Stars avoiding Tentacles' and cheating them out of their money.
** Squidina had a completely different design, looking closer to her main-series design in "Goons on the Moon": she has braces and is much taller. Her character description also mentions her being a StraightMan and more "deadpan, serious" counterpart to Patrick. This aspect didn't stick in the show; while she's definitely [[FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling responsible]], Squidina likes to partake in Patrick's crazy antics when she can. Bits of her earlier personality can be seen in "Enemies a la Mode," which has a rare instance of her getting genuinely upset at Patrick and then trying to carry on the show without him.
** In a rare case of something being axed, then brought back: Patrick's TimeMachine was to be operated with a "Wheel of Time" on the front. However, in the show, characters always used dials or buttons for it, with the wheel being a nondescript design element. The wheel started being used regularly with the new crew taking over, in episodes like "A Space Affair to Remember" and "Neptune's Ball".
** While some of the themed segments did make it in, like ''Pat the Hapless'', many others were cut. This includes Patrick as a detective or a pirate, romantic tales of him falling in love with random objects like a TV or a ham sandwich, the return of Mermaid Pants and Barnacle Star from the main show, and [=SpongeBob=] and Sandy joining Patrick on an outer space adventure.
