** As mentioned at 21:22 in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwzL_s3fdto this video]], Creator/CraigBartlett initially conceived ''Ready Jet Go!'' as an animated buddy KidCom entitled ''Lenny and Nate''. It would involve Lenny, [[HumanAliens who is an alien from another planet who coincidentally looks like a human]]. He had a human friend, Nate, who was extremely stubborn and refused to believed that Lenny was an alien. However, everyone else in the town just accepted it. [[https://heyarnold.fandom.com/wiki/Chats_and_interviews_with_Craig_Bartlett/2004-02-28 Additional sources confirm]] that Lenny and Nate were both 13 years old and had to face the traumas of the 8th grade. Nate is [[BigScrewedUpFamily from a chaotic household, of which he is the nucleus]]. He used to have a friend named Dirk, but after Dirk starts going to 9th grade, he ditches him and Nate befriends Lenny instead. [[AllLoveIsUnrequited Dirk has a little sister, Ronnie, who, has an unrequited crush on Nate, but Lenny has a crush on her]], [[LoveTriangle resulting in a love triangle]]. Also, Lenny was said to be a [[{{Expy}} 13-year-old version]] of the ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' character Curly. It was pitched to Creator/CartoonNetwork, but was rejected. Years later, the show was revamped to be educationally appropriate for Creator/PBSKids, teaching about astronomy and earth science, resulting in ''Ready Jet Go!'', the series we have today. In addition, Lenny evolved to become Jet and Nate evolved to become Sean, except the stubbornness was reduced and the Earth kids made it their mission to befriend and protect Jet instead. It is unknown if Dirk and Ronnie evolved to become any characters in the ''Ready Jet Go!'' series.'

* ''WesternAnimation/FreakyStories'': In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVIXnXeP2a0&list=WL&index=1 TheCartoonGamer8000's]] interview with series creator Steve Schnier, quite a lot has been revealed:
** The series was going to be an anthology of fairy tales from around the world. However, Schnier found that many of the folk stories he researched were quite violent but also too interesting to be {{bowdlerized}} for kids TV, inspiring him to instead make a show about urban legends - aka the modern-day equivalent of folktales.
** The show was previously pitched to Creator/{{CBC}} and Creator/{{CTV}} before Creator/{{YTV}} ultimately picked it up.
** Steve Schnier originally wanted every story to be animated by a different artist from a different part of Canada. While this idea was ultimately scrapped, almost no two episodes have the same writer or composer, with many of them coming from as far away from Toronto or Ottawa (where most of the show's production was set) as you can imagine.
** Steve Schnier originally wanted the series intro to be the show's title being screamed out loud (in the vein of the song "Devil's Haircut" by Music/{{Beck|Musician}}), but in his words, "wiser minds prevailed".
** As seen in the series pilot, Larry was originally a solo host, and he hung out at a zoo instead of a diner. He told the stories himself to viewers, with the stories presented as still animatics instead of a full 4-minute cartoon. The decision to create Maurice the Maggot came about as a result of realizing that Larry needed somebody to play off with for the show proper.
** ExecutiveMeddling proposed replacing the puppets with CGI animation (done by Creator/MainframeEntertainment!) as a cost-cutting measure (a single day of shooting could cost 50 thousand!). Fortunately, Steve Schnier managed to convince them to keep the puppets by showing an original tape of Maurice sliding up to the camera and saying "Larry, teach me how to be charming" as copious amounts of slime dribbled from his mouth, which not only caused the executives to burst into laughter but also convinced them that the puppets were able to do things CGI versions of the characters could not.
** The final Freaky Story, "The Lodger", was originally going to just end with the twist of the mystery inn guest being SantaClaus, but on the night before recording, Steve Schnier (who wrote the episode) quickly threw in the double twist of the real Santa being kidnapped and replaced by UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper in a flash of inspiration.
