* IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine: Creator/BenSchwartz (Leo), Creator/EricBauza (Splinter), and Josh Brener (Donnie) work together on ''WesternAnimation/{{DuckTales|2017}}''.

* {{Jossed}}: Among the theories about the Foot Recruit was that they would [[CanonCharacterAllAlong turn out]] to be named Karai, due to filling a roughly similar role as prior incarnations. [[spoiler:The series finale shoots this down by introducing its own incarnation of Karai, who is not only firmly ''against'' the Foot Clan in this incarnation, but also [[AdaptationalHeroism one of the heroes]] this time around, and the Foot Recruit's name ultimately turned out to be Casey Jones, the other most popular guess for who the Foot Recruit would turn out to be.]]

** Creator/MauriceLaMarche plays the Foot Brute, a much larger character than he usually plays. By that same token, Creator/RobPaulsen uses [[GutturalGrowler a much more gravelly voice]] when he voices the Foot Lieutenant.

** Creator/BenSchwartz and Creator/JoshBrener previously worked together in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017.''

** A very odd (and brief) example; on February 9th, 2019, the show aired on Creator/NickJr, which is strange considering the show isn't really suitable for preschoolers with all its violence. This isn't the only time this has happened with a regular Nick show - ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBeaks'', ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPandaLegendsOfAwesomeness'', ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'', ''WesternAnimation/ALVINNNAndTheChipmunks'', ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Mysticons}}'', ''WesternAnimation/KuuKuuHarajuku'', and ''WesternAnimation/RegalAcademy'' have all accidentally aired on Nick Jr.

* FollowTheLeader: [[AvertedTrope Averted.]] ''Rise'' is only slightly similar to ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'', being a more [[Main/PlayedForLaughs comedy focused]] than [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003 its two]] [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012 more recent brothers]], but it's still at its core an ''action'' focused series. The fact that it heavily uses dynamic animation as opposed to [=TTGs=] more static digital puppetry.
