8''Mary Kate and Ashley IN ACTION!'' was a short-lived SaturdayMorningCartoon series produced by Creator/DiCEntertainment that aired on [[Creator/AmericanBroadcastingCompany ABC]]. Coming off of the big Creator/MaryKateAndAshleyOlsen craze throughout {{the nineties}}, the girls voiced a pair of twin sisters named Misty (for Mary-Kate) and Amber (for Ashley), a pair of undercover [[TeenSuperspy teen superspies]] that go around the world solving crimes and mysteries mostly relating to things in the fashion world, going to cities such as Rome, Paris and London (where they went in their own DTV-movies before).

10The show was canceled after just one season (consisting of only 26-episodes) due to poor ratings.
