| 1 | * InternationalCoproduction: Between the British Creator/AardmanAnimations and the Canadian [[Creator/WildBrain Decode Entertainment]] in association with both Creator/CartoonNetwork and Creator/{{Teletoon}}. Incidentally, the two studios had previously collaborated on another series made for Teletoon, ''WesternAnimation/PlanetSketch'' (although CN had no involvement in this one). |
| 2 | * KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Only the first half of the series has ever been released in DVD. The series is somewhat difficult to find after that, though you may get lucky and get the DVD set online [[{{Pun}} cheep]]. All of the episodes can also be found [[https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_PPz5e2nCeR_8VYNkaOumDrbo76FX7p5 here]]. |
| 3 | * NoExportForYou: You can't view too many clips on the Cartoon Network website, as those are only available if you live in Britain. |
| 4 | * TheOtherDarrin: In the U.K., Chuckie Chan was voiced by Rob Rackshaw doing an [[AsianSpeekeeEngrish exaggerated Chinese accent]] reminiscent of Creator/JackieChan, granted he is the {{expy}} of said actor and martial artist. It was feared that American audiences would be more likely to view it as a racist caricature so Chuckie was redubbed by Chris Hardwick in the U.S. airings. Halfway through the show's run, Hardwick would become Chuckie's voice in both countries after the network received complaints. |
| 5 | * ScrewedByTheNetwork: Daniel Capozzi, the show's lead artist, has revealed that the show received high ratings during its run and was poised to become Cartoon Network's next big action show. However, the premiere of ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' caused Cartoon Network executives to shift most their focus on to it, resulting in ''Chop Socky Chooks'' being given erratic airdates and limited reruns until it was removed from the schedule completely. |
| 6 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to Daniel Capozzi, the show was initially conceived as being a 2-D show with animation and designs reminiscent of graphic nightclub posters. The Chooks were also going to have beaks before it was decided that it would make them look less unique. |
