* QuestionableCasting: Raquel Welch voiced Cinderella's stepmother with a normal American accent, which is bizarre since pretty much every other character (including the stepsisters, her daughters) had something of a Mexican accent.



* {{Tearjerker}}: Though the series as a whole is thoroughly [[{{Disneyfication}} Disneyfied]] and Season 3 is considered to be the [[SeasonalRot worst of it]], the ending of the episode "The Happy Prince" stays loyal to its material.

*** Even more so since Bruce W. Smith, one of the supervising animators for ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'', was one of the directors and character designers for this series.



** A lot of the show's voice actors already were playing or would go on to play Disney characters. ''The Little Mermaid'' would go on to be Nani from ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch'', ''Aladdin'' and ''The Emperor'' are [[WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} Li Shang and Ling]] respectively ("Shang" is also the Big Bad Wolf in ''Little Red Riding Hood''), ''The Valiant Little Tailor''s' King Dakkar is [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 Mufasa]], while the show's narrator is Rafiki.



*** In the same episode, Will Smith played a puppet who wanted to be human. Fast forward to 2019, where he played [[Film/Aladdin2019 a genie who wanted to be human]].
*** In ''WesternAnimation/SharkTale'', Oscar sarcastically says, "No, it’s Pinocchio!" after Lenny accidentally eats him.

* MagnificentBastard:
** "The Emperor's New Clothes": Keiji and Toshio are a pair of [[ConMan common swindlers]] who charm the clothes-loving emperor of Japan by offering to weave him the "Fabric of Dreams", visible only to the wise. Requesting the finest materials, as well as payment of the entire royal treasury, the two pretend to work tirelessly weaving the fabric over several days--tricking the emperor's staff, the populace, and eventually the emperor himself into thinking they are fools for not being able to see it. While the nearly-naked emperor becomes a public laughingstock, Keiji and Toshio [[KarmaHoudini get away scot free]], having earned everything for doing nothing.
** "The Pied Piper": Literature/{{The Pied Piper|OfHamelin}} is a smooth-talking [[WanderingMinstrel traveling musician]] who's solved many infestations with his saxophone playing and offers to do the same with Hamelin's rats. Despite the town's doubts, the Piper easily gets every last rat to follow the music out of town by playing at frequencies only they can hear. When the corrupt mayor refuses to pay the Piper the promised amount, he gets his revenge by luring every child in Hamelin out of town. The Piper, however, leaves behind a poor boy he befriended so he'd be the only child in town, making the townsfolk more compassionate and Hamelin a better place--with their only hope being that he will return someday as promised.
** "The Snow Queen": Literature/TheSnowQueen herself has a [[EvilIsDeathlyCold heart made of ice]] and a personality to match. Having created a magic mirror that would make everything good appear bad just for fun, she grows bored one day and lets it shatter, following its shards towards her next victim. The Snow Queen uses some shards to freeze the young Kai's eye and heart to make him more literally and figuratively cold, then appears to him the next day to appeal to his pride and comfort him with a kiss, erasing his memories. Though she and her army are defeated by the pure-hearted Gerda, the Snow Queen [[VillainRespect genuinely compliments her on her pluck]] before melting with her castle.

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: More than once a few of the show's morals have been updated for modern audiences. One example includes "Puss in Boots", where Puss' master is uncomfortable with lying to gain favor with the king and his daughter, even though he loves her. After Puss kills the ogre and welcomes them all to the "Prince's Palace", [[spoiler: his master reveals that he told them the truth while he was away, but they still admire him for the person he is. Puss, on the other hand, is upset for turning his harrowing journey into a ShaggyDogStory, but all is forgiven after his master and the Princess marry]].
