Trivia
- This is the first time since Quack Pack that Huey, Dewey, and Louie have separate physical appearances, distinct personalities, and different voice actors.
- Many aspects of the show's design are based on works by Carl Barks, including the original comics.
- Unlike most of their animated appearances and like in the classic comics, the duck characters have white sclerae.
- Tony Anselmo, Corey Burton, Tress MacNeille, Michael Bell, Jim Cummings, Keone Young, Russi Taylor, and Rob Paulsen act as returning cast members from the original series. Anselmo and Burton reprise their roles as Donald Duck and Ludwig Von Drake, while Taylor, Paulsen, and MacNeille's roles from the original series (Huey, Dewey, Louie, & Webby, Gladstone Gander, and Quackfaster) have been recast while Bell's and Young’s original roles were minor, and the actors provide new character voices as Jim Starling/Negaduck, a younger version of Donald Duck, Gibbous, Daisy Duck (whom MacNeille has been voicing since 1999), and Quackerjack. Young provides additional voices.
- Della Duck is the only member of the main cast, who is left-handed, as shown in "What Ever Happened to Della Duck?!"
- Co-producer Frank Angones wanted to include Mickey Mouse in the series, but the character has been barred from appearing by Disney executives in-person.[5] However, a reference to the character was featured in the episode "Moonvasion", in the form of a Mickey-shaped melon whom Donald voiced through ventriloquism, with his ventriloquism being provided by Mickey voice actor Chris Diamantopoulos.
- While the television movie premiered in August, the actual series premiered on the same month the original series premiered in 1987.
- Not counting the day, this also coincides with the 30th anniversary of the original series.
- This series marks the animated debuts of Fethry Duck, John D. Rockerduck, Jeeves, Neighbor Jones, Bombie the Zombie, Scrooge’s sister, Matilda McDuck and the nephews' mother, Della Duck.
- Early promo art of the series envisioned Dewey and Webby wearing different clothes, with Dewey having a single shirt with two different shades of blue, and Webby wearing a pink dress similar to the original Disney Afternoon series.
- Other past Disney cartoons from the 1990s appear in the show, in their own way; Darkwing Duck was a TV show within it initially, while the Rescue Rangers are a side-effect of an intelligence Ray.
