** In the third Madagascar film, Maurice smiles when Julien falls to his apparent death and is disappointed to see him survive, which is inconsistent with the bosom friendship they have in the series. That said, it is likely that their relationship worsened over time.

* GrossUpCloseUp: Mort is [[JustForPun mortified]] by the previous King Julian's filthy, unkempt feet, which we're given a nice, long shot of. He is also repulsed by the sight of Pancho's gross feet.

* GloveSnap: In "Empty is the Head" Mort puts up a rubber glove on his head to give suspicious lemurs a [[OverreactingAirportSecurity security search]]. Later when a group of lemurs starts to ask too much questions he snaps his glove again and winks at them suggesting they should shut up.

* OnlySixFaces: Downplayed. Some of the adult lemurs have unique models for their characters and, if not, are given a quirk about them to separate them from the pack (Such as different eye color or specific clothing). Played straight with the baby lemurs though since they're depicted in the show are {{Palette Swap}}s of Mort.

* AnythingThatMoves:
** Julien disguises himself as a fossa and is rather thrilled when one falls in love with him and proposes, even when Julien himself isn't really sure what gender the other one is.
--->'''Julien''': I'm going to be a bride! Or a groom, what- either works! Fossa I do!
** Mort, based off his interactions with a number of individuals.

* ShipTease: Julien seems to want Clover. Then again, Julien [[AnythingThatMoves isn't picky]].

A spin-off of the ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}'' series on Creator/{{Netflix}}. This [[AllCGICartoon computer-animated cartoon]] features [[ItsAllAboutMe King Julien XIII]], chronicling his life on Madagascar [[{{Prequel}} prior to the events of the films]]. Also returning are [[ChessmasterSidekick Maurice]] and [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter Mort]], as well as a new female lemur character named [[ActionGirl Clover]].

The show debuted in December 2014 with five episodes. It is the second spinoff to circulate from ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}'', after ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'' which premiered on {{Creator/Nickelodeon}}. It is also the second film by Creator/DreamWorksAnimation, after ''WesternAnimation/{{Turbo}}'', to be given a spinoff by Netflix.

* DoomedByCanon: No matter how close Julien and Clover are, [[WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}} they will never leave Madagascar together]].

* ActionGirl: Clover, King Julien's special-ops expert and bodyguard.This trope is played to the extreme, as Clover is one of the only characters who can actually directly fight against a threat, like a fossa

* ArtShift: A 2D art style seems to be reserved for imagination, particularly when it comes to illustrating one of Clover's stories.

* ChekhovsGun: "[[Recap/AllHailKingJulienS01E03EnterTheFanaloka Enter the Fanaloka]]" opens with a Franksgiving day celebration, where every lemur writes their wish to the gods on a rock that are then all flown to the skies on a hot-air balloon. [[spoiler:by the end of the episode Karl has everyone cornered with no hope of escape when the balloon abruptly crushes him, granting King Julien's wish of "Surprise me"]]

* ContinuityCreep: While the show uses a healthy amount of ContinuityNod and CallBack, the end of the 4th season features an actual story arc that builds up to a [[WhamEpisode cliffhanger so big]], its resolution will be in the form of an entirely new show; ''All Hail King Julien: Exiled''.

* ChekhovsGun: "[[Recap/AllHailKingJulienS01E03EnterTheFanaloka Enter the Fanaloka]]" opens with a Franksgiving day celebration, where every lemur writes their wish to the gods on a rock that are then all flown to the skies on a hot-air ballon. [[spoiler:by the end of the episode Karl has everyone cornered with no hope of escape when the balloon abruptly crushes him, granting King Julien's wish of "Surprise me"]]

* CurbStompBattle: On multiple occasions the lemurs rally together with the PowerOfFriendship to try and fight back against a threat to save the day, but because they are lemurs and none of them know how to fight, they immediately get defeated.

* ObfuscatingStupidity : It's implied that Mort isn't really as stupid as he appears to be. This doesn't mean that he is completely normal neither, through, as he tends to be quite psychotic. [[spoiler: In ''Exiled'', he deliberately used his reputation as a moron several times.]]

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: On multiple occasions the lemurs rally together with the PowerOfFriendship to try and fight back against a threat to save the day, but because they are lemurs and none of them know how to fight, they immediately get defeated.

* WomenAreWiser: Zig Zagged with Clover, on one hand she does function as a more level headed counter to Julien and Mort’s craziness, but on the other hand she is paranoid, [[HairTriggerTemper easily angered]], and tends to punch people wo so much as look at her funny.

* GrumpyBear: Hector, a lemur who hates everybody.

* LivingIsMoreThanSurviving: What Julien believes, and is the backbone of his rule. Even after his first royal party attracts a fossa attack, he insist that they keep partying and enjoying themselves instead of spending their entire lives just hiding in fear doing nothing.

* SeldomSeenSpecies: Madagascar is exclusive home to some of the most unique species in the world, so this is a given. Fossa, fanaloka and tenrecs have all been featured so far.
