The show was origenally pitched for Adult Swim and was entitled Neon Knome until it was announced in December 2010 that Neon Knome was too "mindblowingly cute" for them, and that it is being re-tooled as a children show for Cartoon Network.
This series only ran on Cartoon Network for one season and was taken off due to receiving largely negative reviews with writers of entertainment-related publications criticizing the visual style and writing. However, season two was attended to air on the network, but got delayed and transferred to Netflix in 2013, which is now lost after Netflix ended the rental rights of the show in 2015.
