History Trivia / StitchAndAi

** Creator/RichardEpcar was credited only for the Jaboodies' leader Commander Wombat, but he also voiced Mr. Ding, an Elder, Captain Gantu, and [[spoiler:Cobra Bubbles]], though Epcar himself only mentioned the first two of those roles on [[https://www.richardepcar.com/resumes/RichardEpcarCharactersResume.pdf his characters resumé.]]

* {{Blooper}}: In "The Phoenix", Stitch's ears [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u7AIUpVhCw fly off his head]] as he, Ai, and Bao watch Nubing and Z's ship fly towards the Fenghuang at the shrine.

* ActingForTwo: Due to the rather small voice cast, a few of the English voice actors played multiple roles, with several instances of TalkingToHimself:

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The show hasn't been made legally available again since it was removed from [=DisneyNow=] in June 2019. It, along with the ''Anime/{{Stitch}}'' anime, has not been included alongside the main Western animated works (the four ''Franchise/LiloAndStitch'' films, ''WesternAnimation/TheOriginOfStitch'' short, and ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries'') on Creator/DisneyPlus[[note]]save for the Japanese version of the service and Disney+ Hotstar in other countries having the anime[[/note]] when that service launched, and continues to be unavailable on there. A couple Website/YouTube channels, one of them called "Stitch & Ai TV", did upload all thirteen episodes in English (from Disney Channel Asia recordings) on that site, but all of them except for the tenth and twelfth episodes have been copyright blocked worldwide. However, all thirteen episodes--without any Disney Channel bugs, no less--have been uploaded to Vimeo by a user who was dedicated to uploading various Chinese movies and TV shows. These uploads are still extant as of August 2022, but they're a little harder to find as titles for these uploads use the Chinese titles, despite them being the English versions. Also, the videos cannot be watched without a Vimeo account in certain countries, as the user did not give their uploads content ratings.

* TheOtherDarrin:
** Once again, none of the original cast from the films or ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' return to reprise their roles. However, Creator/BenDiskin and Creator/JessWinfield [[RoleReprise reprise]] their ''Anime/{{Stitch}}'' anime roles as Stitch and Jumba, respectively. Pleakley, however, got another new voice actor with Creator/LucienDodge taking over.
** After the death of original Jumba voice actor Creator/DavidOgdenStiers in 2018, Winfield is now believed to be the new official voice actor for Jumba.

* Blooper: In "The Phoenix", Stitch's ears [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u7AIUpVhCw fly off his head]] as he, Ai, and Bao watch Nubing and Z's ship fly towards the Fenghuang at the shrine.

* FranchiseKiller: While it did not kill off the ''Franchise/LiloAndStitch'' franchise as a whole, as proven by ''Manga/StitchAndTheSamurai'' in 2020 and ''Agent Stitch'' in 2022, this show's lack of international success and brief thirteen-episode run with no second season in sight after five years since its airing have proven that Stitch's animated TV days are officially over.

* RoleReprise: Ben Diskin and Jess Winfield reprise their roles of Stitch and Jumba respectively from the ''Stitch!'' anime's English dub, effectively making them the current official voice actors for those characters in the franchise. Doubly so in Winfield's case as Jumba's [[Creator/DavidOgdenStiers original voice actor]] would die the month after this show aired in English.

Another user also uploaded the episodes (in their full and undivided lengths) to their channel, but they too got blocked except for the same two episodes.

* InvisibleAdvertising: The American release on December 1, 2018 was completely out of nowhere. It was only given some prominence on the [=DisneyNow=] home page and only one Disney fan site reported on its release that day.

** The storyboards for "Teacher's Pet" reveal that the fight between Stitch and the possessed Mr. Liu would've been longer and a bit more violent than the final produced version, with Stitch even using the school gardener's {{chainsaw|Good}} at one point and using it to cut a hole in the school wall in the shape of his head.

* QuietlyCancelled: Craig stated that the production team had discussions about ideas for a potential season two, including possible appearances by some of [[Characters/LiloAndStitchExperiments Jumba's other experiments]] and answers to [[LeftHanging a couple lingering plot threads]], including an answer for why Stitch [[WistfulAmnesia does not remember much of his life before Ai]] (which likely would've been answered [[spoiler:if he found the shrine he was looking for]]), but Disney was waiting for ratings from other countries first. However, the show [[InvisibleAdvertising did not get much advertising by Disney]], especially when its American release was on a pre-Creator/DisneyPlus streaming service that most audiences don't know of, so it didn't really stand a chance of getting another season. It was eventually succeeded in 2020 by an AlternateUniverse [[Manga/StitchAndTheSamurai Japanese manga]], with a live-action adaptation of the original ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch'' film expected to be the next entry in the franchise.

** From ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries'', executive producers Tony Craig and Jess Winfield returned as director and voice actor, respectively.[[note]]Although Winfield's role as a voice actor is mainly a continuation of his role as Jumba in the anime's English dub, not from any voices he did in ''The Series''.[[/note]] Michael Tavera claimed to have returned as a composer in his résumé, but he is not credited in the final product.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: The show was released in the United States to [[InvisibleAdvertising virtually no fanfare from Disney]] on a TV Everywhere service and app made for the company's youth-focused TV channels[[note]]Creator/DisneyChannel (which this series is listed under), Disney Junior, and Creator/DisneyXD[[/note]] and [[MissingEpisode without its ninth episode]].
