1 | * ActorAllusion: |
2 | ** Penny is now played by Creator/TaraStrong, who previously played Agent Heather, an {{Expy}} of Penny, in the spinoff series WesternAnimation/GadgetBoyAndHeather. |
3 | *** Also in a bit of a meta-sense. Penny was once played by Creator/CreeSummer. Both Tara and she have worked on a lot of productions together and are friends in real life. So this was a bit of PassingTheTorch in a way. |
4 | ** In the episode "Forever MAD", Talon complains about some problems with song lyrics for their fake Broadway show. His voice actor, Creator/LyonSmith, would know a thing or two about having trouble with lyrics, having previously voiced the lead in ''WesternAnimation/GrojBand''. |
5 | * ChannelHop: In Canada, the series aired on Creator/{{Teletoon}} for its first two seasons, but moved to Creator/FamilyChannel starting in the third season. |
6 | * CrossRegionalVoiceActing: The show generally features Toronto-based actors like Creator/LyonSmith, Creator/KatieGriffin, Creator/MartinRoach, and Creator/DerekMcGrath, but the California-based, Toronto-born Creator/TaraStrong voices Penny Gadget here. |
7 | * MythologyGag: A possible one—Gadget's magician name in college was [[WesternAnimation/GadgetAndTheGadgetinis the Great Gadgetini]]. |
8 | * RealLifeRelative: In the French dub, Gadget is voiced by Antoine Durand. His father (the late Luc Durand) was also the voice of Gadget in the French dub of the original series. |
9 | * SavedFromDevelopmentHell: There were plans for a ContinuityReboot as far back as 2009. |
10 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
11 | ** As mentioned on the [[Trivia/InspectorGadget Trivia page for the original series]], there was going to be a reboot back in 2009, which fell into DevelopmentHell. It was going to be DarkerAndEdgier with a more {{Animesque}} art style and feature Gadget fighting ghosts. |
12 | ** Also the show's theme song would have been similar to the original theme. However, [[ScrewedByTheLawyers due to the legal issues, the producers couldn't use the original theme at all]], which is really sad, given that Music/BrentalFloss was going to be the composer. He even explained it in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B236au25Rx4 this video]]. |
