History Series / AdventuresInWonderland

* IOweYouMyLife: In the episode "From Hare to Eternity," the Hare appoints himself the Queen's new bodyguard after she saves him from quicksand and drives her crazy with his overzealous attempts to "protect" her.
* InMediasRes: Alice has already been visiting Wonderland before the first episode.

* VillainSong / TheVillainSucksSong:
** A DistantDuet between the Mad Hatter and the Copy Catter Hatter is both of these.

* {{Catchphrase}}:

* CatsAreSnarkers: The Cheshire Cat, with some instances of the VisualPun LiteralistSnarking he displays in the movie.

* ADayInTheLimelight:

** One episode, "All That Glitters," has a fruit that can make you very strong, but can make you sick if you have too much. Tweedle Dum takes it to increase his performance at a sport. This has some allusions to steroid abuse - fortunately he only "got sick", since steroid abuse can have all sorts of nasty side effects.

** Intentional or not, some of the Hatter and Hare's duets are rife with HomoeroticSubtext. The main ones are "The Taffy Tango", where the two of them do a romantic dance while stretching a pink glob of taffy faster and faster until it explodes ("I'll pull this way/You pull the other"), and "The French Dip", which features the refrain "We're doing it" repeated over and over.

''Adventures in Wonderland'' is a live-action [[KidCom children's sitcom]] and a loose adaptation of ''[[Literature/AliceInWonderland Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'', which ran on the Creator/DisneyChannel from March 1992 to 1995 and reran (both on the Disney Channel and in syndication) until 1998. In the series, Alice (played by Creator/ElisabethHarnois) is portrayed as a teenage girl who can come to and from Wonderland simply by walking through her bedroom mirror (a reference to Lewis Carroll's ''Through the Looking-Glass'').

* WhosOnFirst: "Hippity Hoppity Hypnotist" includes an an entire ''song'' like this, as the Queen asks the Hatter for a recipe for his "special tea," but he thinks she's saying "specialty" and offers her all his favorite recipes ''except'' tea.

* YourTelevisionHatesYou: At the beginning of one episode, the Queen sits at her table waiting for the White Rabbit to return with the pizza. She tries to take her mind off her hunger by watching some TV, which happens to be showing a pizza commercial. Seeing how delicious the pizza is onscreen made the Queen feel worse. But luckily the White Rabbit showed up in time.

-->'''Copy Catter Hatter:''' You tricked me with the ol' [[BuffySpeak leave-out-the-fruit-covered-hat-design-to-be-copied-because-the-queen-will-hate-it trick]], huh?

** Even [[OnlySaneMan the reasonable Alice]] falls victim to this trope occasionally. In an episode about pizza making, she declares that she only likes plain cheese. The Caterpillar suggests that she try a variety of flavors, and she replies "I like a ''variety'' of cheeses on my pizza!"

* PlotAllergy: In the episode "Something to Sneeze At," the Hatter thinks he's allergic to the Hare, but really he's allergic to flowers from the Hare's garden.

** The Tweedles. In early episodes, they were interchangeable [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Manchild/ man children]] who mainly showed up to breakdance and rap. As time went on, though, they were shown to run the Wonderland newspaper and often turned up as reporters. They also took on their own individual traits (see DivergentCharacterEvolution below). About halfway through the series they started sporting new outfits as well, featuring blue pants, red long-sleeve shirts, and colorful vests instead of the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheNineties Hammer pants and chains]] from before.
** True for the Hare, too. As actor Reece Holland pointed out [[https://youtu.be/8hEt82y25TQ/ in an interview on The Tiara Talk Show podcast]], there wasn't much to the Hare at first aside from being the Hatter's bland sidekick. According to him, after about 30 episodes, the Hare developed into a proper {{Foil}} for the Hatter.

* ParentalBonus: Lots of [[LiteraryAllusionTitle literary allusion titles]] ("From Hare to Eternity," "What Makes Rabbit Run," "The Bunny Who Would Be King," "The Grape Juice of Wrath") and film/TV allusion titles ("Pie Noon," "Lady and the Camp," "Card 54, Where Are You?").

** An early episode is titled "Through the Looking Glasses"

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Pretty much every single character is ''much'' friendlier, more reasonable and more affable than their counterparts in either the original book or the movie. It's most notable with the Queen, who's stubborn and short tempered, but essentially a well meaning Main/JerkWithAHeartOfGold who still genuinely cares for others.

As time went on, though, they were shown to run the Wonderland newspaper and often turned up as reporters. They also took on their own individual traits, with Dee as a cool-headed DeadpanSnarker who was fond of teasing his brother and Dum as the cockier, more impulsive of the two.
