Trivia

 * Just Like Adventure Time, this show has been burnt-off in the network in Sundays until their series finales has aired and got put in a decent timeslot in a weekday.
 * Difference is, this show never had a marathon to conclude the show.
 * From September 2020 to July 2021, the show's seasons were listed in broadcast order on HBO Max because of a contractual obligation to put the show in the order it aired when new episodes of it premiered on the Cartoon Network streaming app in a different order. On August 1st, 2021, HBO Max themselves corrected the episode listings to the show crew's story order.
