Development
The series' concept came from The Story of Yuyu Rabbit, an unpublished graphic novel Andrew Porchad made in 1996. In 1999, Porchad teamed up with Phelan Morkel, the creator of the Darren the Mole Miner comics, to develop an animated series using the story's characters, which they eventually pitched to Disney as a fail-safe in case Morkel's series Mole Miner was unsuccessful, with Morkel also writing the pilots for Morten and Trisha's Way as secondary fail-safes.
