The pilot was essentially an early version of "Kangaroo Clean-Up", and had some different scenes. Most of the pilot's elements were reused in an episode of the official series. Stanley's parents' room looks completely different, having a purple setting, and Harry looks completely different. Stanley's voice actress from the series, Jessica D. Stone, also voiced him in the pilot episode. Stanley's mom was voiced by Julia Sweeny in the pilot instead of Ari Meyers, while Stanley's dad was voiced David Landsberg in both the pilot and the series. Dennis and Harry's voice actors haven't been identified as of now.

Stanley was an animated television series aimed at preschoolers that aired on Playhouse Disney from 2001 to 2007. The series was created by Jim Jinkins (creator of Doug, and PB&J Otter) and David Campbell. Stanley discusses a wide variety of issues that preschool children face, including change, growth, rules, and dealing with others. Each episode centers on an animal that deals with or helps explain the issue Stanley is dealing with.[1]

In 1999, a pilot episode of the series was sent to Disney to see if it would make it to a full-fledged series. It never aired on TV, possibly due to Stanley's design being a bit too scary for young audiences.

The pilot was essentially an early version of "Kangaroo Clean-Up", and had some different scenes. Most of the pilot's elements were reused in an episode of the official series. Stanley's parents' room looks completely different, having a purple setting, and Harry looks completely different. Stanley's voice actress from the series, Jessica D. Stone, also voiced him in the pilot episode. Dennis' voice actor from the series, Charles Shaughnessy, also voiced him in the pilot episode. Stanley's mom was voiced by Julia Sweeny in the pilot instead of Ari Meyers, while Stanley's dad was voiced David Landsberg in both the pilot and the series. Harry's voice actor hasn't been identified as of now.
