  • Development Hell: Flying Kipper took four months to come out, owing to a rewrite that is detailed more in What Could Have Been.
  • What Could Have Been: A general outline of the episode line-up for Season 1 has been posted by Trampy, though throughout the series' production, some of the episodes planned to be adapted ended up being changed/scrapped.
    • Tenders and Turntables was originally planned to be adapted as a two-parter, known as Tenders and Strike. Due to the potential of Arc Fatigue stretching the story out, Tenders was canceled, with Strike taking up the more critical events of the original story, hence the Adaptation Distillation in the final product. Strike's original placement would be taken up by Percy to compensate.
    • Flying Kipper was going to be an Adaptation Amalgamation of "A Scarf for Percy" and "The Flying Kipper" known as Scarves, but the former element was shelved as Percy's character in the Trampy Movies had not reached his full-on cheekier side yet and changing the events to fit his Season 1 persona was felt to not fit. Likewise, putting the Flying Kipper crash at the end was deemed an awkward result and shoehorned in. This resulted in a delay of several months due to the lack of story content in the original Flying Kipper story; Percy's Ascended Extra status in that episode stemmed from maintaining his dynamic with Henry in the first draft.
