Mary-Kate and Ashley in Action! is an animated television series produced by DiC Entertainment and Dualstar Entertainment Group, featuring the voices and likeness of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.[1] It premiered on ABC's One Saturday Morning block from October 20th, 2001 to June 29th, 2002. It was later cancelled after one season due to negative ratings.[2]

Plot

The show centres around the globe-trotting movie stars and special agents Misty and Amber (Mary-Kate and Ashley) who use their acting and movie-making skills to help people in need and fight evil doers around the world, with the help of their guy friends Rodney Choy and Ivan Quintero, and their robot dog Quincy. Using high tech gadgets and their own unique sense of style, they perform amazing rescues and protect the planet.

Production

On December 1st, 2000, DiC had announced that the show was in production under the working title Action Girls, was in co-production with France’s Canal J, and was being distributed worldwide by DiC. At first, 52 episodes were planned for the show, and the original airdate was in Fall 2001. The budget was at $275,000-$325,000 per episode.[3]

Broadcast

After its premiere date on ABC, DiC has also sold the show to ITV (United Kingdom), Canal J (France), Mediaset (Italy), YTV (Canada) and Fox Kids (Latin America) in November 2001.[4]

After the rebranding of One Saturday Morning, renamed ABC Kids, Toon Disney began reairing the show along with other shows from the original One Saturday Morning block.

They would later be uploaded on YouTube in 2014, and officially rereleased on Apple TV in 2016. The other 21 episodes were not officially released.
