In addition to the broadcast rights, Nickelodeon once held the distribution, home entertainment and digital/streaming rights to the show, at least until the late 2010s. Wildbrain Entertainment, Inc. (formerly known as Wild Brain), which co-produced and co-owned the show, was acquired by DHX Media, Ltd. in Q4 2010, becoming a subsidiary of that company, only to be folded completely into DHX in the mid-2010s. DHX was later renamed WildBrain Ltd. in Q4 2019. NCircle Entertainment (the children's division of Alliance Entertainment Corporation) acquired the home entertainment rights to some later seasons of the show, as well as some of the show's specials, sometime in 2011/early 2012.

The cancellation of the show had to do with the creative differences between GabbaCaDabra LLC and Nickelodeon. Nickelodeon wanted the rights to the show, but Christian Jacobs, who co-created the show (in addition to co-founding GabbaCaDabra LLC and The Magic Store Productions, the latter which also co-produced the show, in association with the former) with Scott Schulz, did not want changes made to his masterpiece if he were to give the rights away.

The 2008 "Yo Gabba Gabba!: The Dancey Dance Bunch" DVD had a copyright/trademark notice that erroneously says: "'''© 2008 Viacom International Inc. All Rights Reserved. NICKELODEON, NICK JR., YO GABBA GABBA! and all related titles, logos and characters are trademarks of Viacom International Inc. TM & © 2008 GabbaCaDabra LLC.'''" (That DVD was also the only Nickelodeon-era "Yo Gabba Gabba!" main release DVD with a Nickelodeon "Haypile" logo added at the end of each episode)
A few early DVDs of the show had a copyright/trademark notice that erroneously says: "'''© 2008 Viacom International Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Meanwhile, the 2009-2012 DVDs of the show have a corrected copyright/trademark notice saying: "'''© [2009, 2010, 2011 or 2012] Viacom International Inc. All Rights Reserved.
