** Nani herself got hit with some of this as well, as in the main movies, it's established that her volatile temper is due to the stress of being unable to find a stable job to support herself and her sister, and sure enough she does mellow in the sequels. In the series, this trait of her got so flanderized she can come across as a bitch sometimes, up to the point she will ground Lilo and Stitch for pretty minor deeds.

* {{Designated Hero}}es: Stitch and especially Lilo come across as this in some episodes, particularly in the ones where they practically ''give'' the experiments over to Gantu and Hämsterviel usually because the experiments annoyed them--such as Nosy, Felix, and Heckler--and/or their abilities were of no real benefit to them--such as Hunkahunka and Poxy. (And likely because the writing staff could not figure out a "one true place" for most of those experiments and were using him as an [[WriterCopOut easy way out.]]) Worse is that these abandonments are often PlayedForLaughs as said experiments start messing with Gantu afterwards (Felix starts making a mess in Gantu's ship, Poxy makes Gantu ill, ''et cetera''). Nosy actually [[WhatTheHellHero calls Lilo out on this]] in "Snafu", an episode that some fans see as a half-hearted attempt to right the show's wrongs before its finale film.

* CommonKnowledge: That Angel was a fan-submitted design by a kid dying of cancer. This is a false claim from users on Website/{{Reddit}} in response to a memetic Website/{{Tumblr}} post criticizing Angel's character design. What proves that this isn't true is that the show never accepted fan submissions for anything--executive producer and screenwriter Creator/JessWinfield even stated on his TV Tome thread that company policy forbade him from taking any outside suggestions--and that Angel was designed by Jose Zelaya, a character designer and animator at Disney Television Animation.

* FanNickname: 627 is given the name "Evile" by fans (and, previously, even [[TheWikiRule wikis]]) due to "evil" being [[PokemonSpeak the only word he said]], [[Anime/{{Stitch}} at least initially]]. He was never named by anyone in the franchise proper. Interestingly, this nickname has been getting less popular with the fans in recent years as they find the name to be rather silly and trite. They are hoping to find a better name for him, but inertia and a lack of general agreement have kept the "Evile" nickname intact.

This is most likely because the writers couldn't figure out a good "one true place" without missing their production deadlines (which considering how the first season aired 39 episodes in a time span of ''less than six months'', must have been very tight back then).

*** Really, a ''lot'' of [[Characters/LiloAndStitchExperiments the experiments]]. Some episodes, such as "Spike", showed some potential of how their personalities could be fleshed out if they were given more screen time (like in the E.A.R.W.A.X. scenes in that particular episode), but the MonsterOfTheWeek setting combined with the [[SixtyFiveEpisodeCartoon 65-episode limit]] ruined such hopes, with many experiments relegated to being {{flat|Character}} background characters. Even some popular experiments like Angel (X-624) didn't get much characterization in the episodes they appear in. Granted, the ''Anime/{{Stitch}}'' anime did help to fix this problem, but [[BrokenBase then]] [[FanonDiscontinuity again...]]
