The show's 10PM broadcast time further illustrated that its target was an adult audience. It was the fourth adult animated series produced by Disney, the other three being '' The PJs'', which aired on Fox, '' Clerks: The Animated Series'', which aired on ABC, and '' Clone High'', which was a co-production of MTV, Teletoon and Nelvana, and is the only adult animated show from them at the time to not be produced at Touchstone Television, now known as ABC Signature.
