Trivia / Mary Kate and Ashley in Action!

• Dueling Shows: With Kim Possible, which ended up performing far better ratings wise.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes : While a Volume One DVD was released, focusing on the villain Renee La Rouge, the remaining episodes remain unreleased. Some episodes did resurface on YouTube from airings on the network KidsCo until Dualstar Productions copyright blocked the episodes (see below).
• The Merch:
  • Books started selling in 2002.
  • There was a lineup of dolls released, as with many of the other Olsen films and TV series.
• Screwed by the Lawyers: Dualstar went on a massive copyright spree on YouTube in October 2023, striking users who uploaded episodes of their shows including this one.
• What Could Have Been:
  • The original concept of the series - Action Girls was announced to be in development in December 2000 after DIC's buyout from Disney. Planning to be co-produced with French broadcaster Canal J and have 52 episodes produced, the original concept would center on the Olsens being globe-trotting movie stars who would use their acting and movie-making skills to help people in need.
  • A video game adaption was planned for 2003 on the PlayStation 2, GameCube and Game Boy Advance, but was canceled when Acclaim parted ways with Dualstar before the company's lawsuit with Acclaim in 2004 over unpaid royalties.
• Working Title: Action Girls.
