Trivia

 * While not as popular as now-parent company Disney's Mickey Mouse/Silly Symphonies or Warner Bros.' Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies, Foxtoons still is considered pretty popular.
 * M.J. Fox is officially 20th Century Fox's mascot, although some fans think that position currently belongs to.
 * Despite 20th Century Fox's acquisition by Disney in 2019, the company has confirmed that the franchise will not be merged with the Mickey Mouse series due to the fact they have different origins and it wouldn't make much sense if two former rival franchises became a single one nowadays.
 * Despite that, Disney will now assume the distribution rights for the franchise, although newer media will still be produced under the 20th Century Fox and 20th Century Fox Television labels.
 * Despite 20th Century Fox being renamed 20th Century Studios in January 2020, Disney confirmed the Foxtoons name will be kept, although no longer alluding to the studio but to M.J. Fox himself instead.
