* ScrewedByTheLawyers: Sort of. You may note the series carries a copyright that credits both Walt Disney Productions (as it was still known) and Creator/{{Hasbro}}. [[https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/disney-afternoon-oral-history-ducktales-darkwing-rescue-rangers This was because]] Disney came up with the idea for the show, then found out Hasbro had a similar idea in development; rather than go to court over it, they instead decided to work together: Disney handled the TV show, while Hasbro did the toys. This split in ownership is why the show only lasted 13 episodes in spite of the franchise's popularity.
