History Trivia / ElTigreTheAdventuresOfMannyRivera

*** Manny and Frida drifted apart during high school, and during that time Manny dated Zoe while Frida dated Sergio, Diego, and Django.
*** Manny and Frida eventually get back in touch sometime during college, and they eventually marry and have triplets (one hero, one villain, and one undecided). Frida continues to pursue her dreams of being a rockstar while Manny went to college to become an artist.

*** Billy, AKA the Cactus Kid, was an orphan raised by his village (and cacti). His hat is what allowed him to control the cacti.

** Frida's family was based on that of Jorge Guttierez's own wife; in the same way Frida's family were all lawmen, they all worked in medical fields.

* WordOfGod: It should be noted that ''El Tigre'' was canceled and had to be swiftly tied up in its GrandFinale; however, Jorge still gave out some nifty tidbits of WhatCouldHaveBeen. '''Spoilers Ahoy'''

*** She also had white wings prior to her banishment, which were ''cut off.''

*** The mystical objects of power (including the ones used by the Riveras) are crafted from ''the blood of ancient gods.''

*** Sartana's banishment began in the 1960s.

* TroubledProduction: The LicensedGame based on the show developed by [[VideoGame/NicktoonsUnite Blue]] [[VideoGame/DeBlob Tongue]] sadly suffered from this. It was initially planned to be a more robust game with more levels, better gameplay, Manny's house serving as a hub world, a multiplayer battle mode and other unknown features, in addition to having a standard development time of about a year. But during its pre-production Nickelodeon internally announced that the show was canceled after just a few episodes, and {{Creator/THQ}} in a fit of panic ordered Blue Tongue to have the game finished and released while the show was still relevant, leading to its development time being reduced to just ''[[ChristmasRushed 10 WEEKS]]''. As a result most of their initial plans got scrapped and the game was released as a very short and simplistic 2D side-scrolling platformer that mostly garnered [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames mediocre reviews]], in addition to having a UsefulNotes/NintendoWii version cancelled and being released for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2 and UsefulNotes/NintendoDS only. [[ThrowTheDogABone On the bright side, at least one of the artists managed to receive some compliments from Jorge.]]

* TheWikiRule: Has a wiki [[http://eltigre.wikia.com/wiki/El_Tigre_Wiki here.]]

* PlayingAgainstType: A downplayed example. Creator/MiguelFerrer is typically type-casted as intimidating or smug villains, but on the show, he voiced the First El Tigre, who functioned more as a heroic mentor to Manny despite his inner turmoil over never being able to decide between being good and evil.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Only Season 1 is on [=DVD=], while Season 2 is not. Also, despite almost every Nickelodeon animated show being on Paramount+, El Tigre is not on there for some reason.

*** Sartana also has a daughter with General Chapuza. She dates White Pantera for a while.

** Did you know that Manny's English voice is done by Creator/AlannaUbach , who played the maid in ''Meet The Fockers''? Now you know.
*** A more family-friendly example would be Mama Imelda from ''Coco''

*** Manny was also confirmed to be on the autism spectrum, just like Jorge.

* ActorAllusion: The Seventh Samurai, voiced by Creator/GeorgeTakei, says "Oh my" at one point in his debut episode.

*** Manny and Frida drifted apart during highschool, and during that time Manny dated Zoe while Frida dated Sergio, Diego, and Django.

*** Diego and Sergio never let go of their crushes on Frida, leading to them creating artificial wives based off of her.

*** Aparently, Django's mother was actually an ex-girlfriend of Rodolfo's.
*** The reason that White Pantera broke up with Voltura was because she cheated on him while under the impression he was cheating on her.

*** Rodolfo and the Seventh Samurai both were divorced because their wives could not handle their heroic lifestyles; they even met at at a support group dealing with that very issue!

* WriteWhoYouKnow: Manny and Frida's personalities are apparently based off those of Jorge Gutiérrez and his wife Sandra. Interesting people!

** When asked about the cancellation, Jorge and a couple of other staff members actually said it happened because the show couldn't beat [=SpongeBob=] in ratings [[note]] At this point Nickelodeon was kinda obsessed with having shows that were on par with Spongebob as a business tactic to keep the company going, justify animation costs, and keep up with Creator/CartoonNetwork). If they couldn't hit that show's standards, they were declared a lost cause and punted to a death slot or Nicktoons Network to be burned off. Both ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' and ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'' were likewise cancelled for this reason.[[/note]]. He even recently made an interesting [[https://www.instagram.com/p/BA7VK0DvDX9/ picture]] dedicated to that fact.[[labelnote:note]]Jorge holds absolutely no ire towards the show itself (and is actually a fan), just the circumstances.[[/labelnote]]

*** One of Justice Jaguar's sisters was Carmen, [[WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife Manolo's]] mother, making Manolo Manny's second cousin.

*** Similar to the weapons [[spoiler: wielded by the titular "Maya and the Three",]] the mystical objects of power (including the ones used by the Riveras) are crafted from ''the blood of ancient gods.''
