The cartoon became a massive cult favorite in Eastern Europe and Russia, due to its repeated showings during the 2000s and good quality dubbing work, and also thanks to the wide availability of the children's channel Fox Kids/Jetix, which ran the series. This cartoon station was hugely popular in Europe due to other kids' networks (Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network) being either unavailable, having bad coverage or suffering from technical errors. Many viewers were also attracted to the show's grounded humor and characters, which stood out among some of the more outlandish cartoons that aired at the time. People from those countries who grew up around the 2000s consider the show one of the most cherished animated series ever, and many of its jokes are quoted to this day. In a 2016 interview, Louie Anderson claimed he had 300,000 Twitter followers from those regions alone. In comparison, the show is mostly forgotten in the United States. Even here on IMDb, statistics show that most of the show's high ratings came from outside the US.
In real life, Louie Anderson's father was named Louis William Anderson (1901-1980), but his name was changed to Andy for the series to avoid confusion.
Whenever characters watch a television show or a movie, it's almost always live action.
The adult characters all have ten fingers on their hands, while the children only have eight.
The design of Andy's cherished Rambler appears to be based off a 1959 Rambler Rebel.
