"Kiff" getting titled as "Table Town" instead of "Kiff" thanks to Disney's international language experts saying to Nic Smal & Lucy Heavens (the creators of "Kiff" themselves) "Hey! I really don't think you two should make the title of your cartoon be a four-letter & one-syllable word that will easily get mistakenly mixed in with a super common slang term for "Like" in French and a super common slang term for "Smoking weed" in German!" back when the production for the series officially took off in 2021 (With the official Press Release for the series actually acknowledging that Nic Smal came from an Indie Rock background (as a drummer for Serving Suggestion), an Emo Rock background (as a drummer for Gravity Wins Again), and an Alternative Rock background (as a drummer for New Altum): https://deadline.com/2021/06/kiff-disney-channel-greenlights-lucy-heavens-nic-smal-1234776492/ ) (With the toyline for "Kiff" (or rather, "Table Town") being handled by Takara (the Japanese toy company)) (Thus preventing the series itself from ever getting completely burred into obscurity by the French, French porn, French gay porn, French foot fetish porn, and French sneaker fetish porn over on Social Media).
"Hailey's On It!" never getting green-lit for a full series due to Disney's executives finding out that Devin Bunje & Nick Stanton (the creators of "Hailey's On It!" themselves) shamelessly traced over gender-bent fanart of Rick Sanchez (from "Rick & Morty") for one of the characters (The Professor): https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/143359642/
