The Story of Robin Hood/Tropes

* Actor Allusion: Will Stutley is potrayed as a frog, a nod to Brenda Song having previously starred in Disney's Amphibia.
*Adaptational Personslity Change: Zigzaged. Flashbacks show Marian as somewhat of a Faux Action Girl which, while differing from the original film, is closer to her original self.
*Adaptational Relationship Overhaul: In the original stories, Will Sturley was one of Robim Hood's Merry Men. In this version, Wilhelma is potrayed as Robin Hood and Little John's mentor.
* Ascended Fanboy: Showrunner Byron Howatd has been a lifelong fan of Robin Hood.
*Call-Forward: Little John at one point calls Pronce John a "phony king".
* Casting Gag:
** Jason Bateman, who voices Robin, previously voiced his Expy Nick Wilde in Disney's Zootopia.
** Joel McCrary is known for voicing Disney's Baloo, whom Little John was based on.
*Celebrity Voice Cast:
**Jason Bateman voices Robin Hood
**Brenda Song voices Will Stutley
* Company Cross-Reference: The coin Prince John plays with is Scrooge McDuck's Number One Dime.
*Darker and Edgier: While the series largely retains the film's comefic tone, it also features a more linear plot in contrast to the somewhat less plot-heavy 1973 film. The series' plot is also somewhat more tense as it features Robin learning to be an outlaw while being a fugitive.
*Gender Swap: Will Stutley is potrayed as female in this version.
* Heartwarming Moments: We get to see Robin Hood and Maid Marian's childhood romance, and is as sweet as you'd expect. It is even revealed that it was Marian who inspired Robin to become who he is now.
*Hilarious In Hindsight: Prince John mocking the idea of female bandits in the original film becomes this once the series reveals Robin Hood's mentor was a girl.
* Mythology Gag: 
**Robin's surname, Locksey, was transplanted from his title as knight from the original film's deleted ending.
**A brief shot from the battle between the Sherrif and Robin is similar to the cut final clash between Robin and Prince John from the first film.
**As was the case in the folk tales, it is Will Stutkey who gives Robin and John their outlaw names.
* Nightmare Fuel: While still potraying him as a comedic villain, the series showd how utterly terrifying would be to live under the rule of a Manchild like Prince John. One episode even implies he got people killed thanks to a tantrum.
* The Other Darrin: Due to the decades-long gap between the film abd the series, the entire cast was replaced for the series.
** Jason Bateman replaces the late Brian Bedford as Robin Hood.
** Joel McCrary replaces the late Phil Harris as Little John.
** Tara Strong replaces Monica Evans as Maid Marian. Doubles as Time-Shifted Casting dince Marian appears only as a child in flashbacks.
** Corey Burton replaces the late Peter Ustinov as Prince John.
** Bill Farmer replaces the late Pat Buttra. as the Sherrif of Nottingham.
* Production Posee: Byron Howard brought back several collaborators from the Zootopia franvhise into this series: Actors Jason Bayemsn and Kathe Soucie, composer Michael Giacchino, Zootopia co-director Jared Bush, Zootopia+ directors Josie Trinidad and Trent Correy, Zootopia+ co-writer Michael Herrera, and animator Mark Henn.
* Role Reprise:
** Corey Burton previously voiced Prince John in a read--along book.
** Bill Farmer reprises his role as the Sheriff of Nothingham from House of Mouse.
* Shout-Out:
**Episode 4 features the Sherrif saying "Mr. Locksey, come out to play. Come out to play" while searching for Robin.
**A season 2 episode serves as an homage to Ocean's 11.
* Tearjerker: The moment Robin and Marian part ways, undrrscored by an instrumental version of Love.
