The show wasn't created from scripts. It was storyboard driven and the jokes and dialogue are created by the story artists (just like classic Looney Tunes, Mickey Mouse shorts, Ren and Stimpy, Dexter's Lab, Flapjack, Adventure Time, tons of other cartoons, etc etc etc...)
(I have to write that disclaimer list for when the "They don't even use writers!!!" brigade gets here. I don't care what you've heard, the storyboard-driven process is quite normal)

This is legitimately a thread about all of the work that went on Behind-The-Scenes of Crossover Nexus, OK KO!'s tribute to Cartoon Network that all happened in 11 Minutes because of our staff who truly care about the past as much as you,
Read and cry. I about did.
the idea for Crossover Nexus originates from a set of 5 OK KO! episodes we did set at the superhero school Point Prep(1064-68 through 1064-72). Our bosses thought the idea of a school for heroes might lend itself to a couple cameos of heroes from other CN shows!
