History WMG / Disenchantment

[[WMG: Dagmar and Bean are related to [[WesternAnimation/Futurama Mom]]. ]]
Same white hair, same curvaceous body, same tendency toward evil as seen in Dagmar. Mom is their distant descendant (or ancestor, if you buy the theory that ''Disenchanted'' actually takes place [[DaysOfFuturePast after]] ''Futurama'').

[[WMG: Dagmar and Bean are related to [[WesternAnimation/Futurama Mom]].]]

As an echo of the Falls titles of the past season finales.

* Merkimer shows some considerable growth in season 2. He tries to encourage a depressed Zog in the aftermath of Dreamland being cursed, and remind him that he could still be the formidable warrior he was in his youth. And while he stole Bean's play, he mainly did it so she could have it performed in the only way it would be possible in Dreamland. Misguided, maybe, and there was a bit of self-service in his motivation as well, but points for effort. And when he realized his testimony about being "smitten" by Bean's beauty was only going to damn her at her trial, he went out of his way to try to defend her by admitting his BalefulPolymorph was his ''own'' dumb fault, and not the result of anything Bean did ''to'' him. He's probably got a ways to go, yet, but baby steps.

* Pretty much confirmed as canon. Taken UpToEleven when they briefly become roommates.

* Pretty much confirmed as canon.

After dying, going to Heaven and then managing to sneak out again, Luci is able to reenter his body, the head having been reanimated by Bean and the rest of him by the Trogs using the magic goo. Thing is, Luci died by ''decapitation!'' Yet, it is a Running Gag throughout Season 4 that his head keeps falling off and his body can just put it back on as if nothing had happened. He has become capable of surviving the very thing that killed him before! Whether this is because of God, magic, or some combination of the two, Luci seems to be immortal again. But he may not believe that Asmodium's punishment could be undone and so he thinks that he is still mortal. This is further implied by the fact that he is still magical. Miri is able to use him like a gun that shoots fire and he is also able to enter the mirror and pull Bean out because he is her personal demon.

** Confirmed in Part 4; the bear cub, Jasper, IS the offspring of Zog and Ursula!

* [[spoiler:Bean's bisexuality is finally confirmed in "Last Splash". She ends up falling hard in love with Mora the mermaid.]]

* Semi-confirmed at the end of Season 3, where he ends up in Heaven when he dies. He's not happy about it, though, and is still thoroughly demon even after [[spoiler:returning to Earth]].

* The first thing in color animation is a rotating pan of the castle - with a lens flare effect from the rising sun that doesn't get used in the rest of the show - at the end of the opening credits. Since it doesn't have any credits captioning it ''and'' sets up the first scene, that's one more possibility. [[spoiler: They're all waking up from a dream, and the passage of time in the show only starts with the first episode? Some real Film/DarkCity stuff?]]

Quite possibly he hired them. We know [[spoiler: arranged it so if something happened to Zog he would be able to turn Derek into a puppet king]] and he flinched when Zog, Pendergast, and Sorcerio were messing with the pistol, hinting he knew what it actually was and how it works (the fact he could use actual terms when describing the 'wand' not withstanding). He also demonstrates some competency in handling it himself in private, suggesting he actually ''does'' know how to use it.
* Original Poster here. [[spoiler: jossed. It was the Arch-Druidess]]

* The series had done a RoyalInbreeding joke already, with Guysbert and Merkimer's Father/Uncle and Mother/Aunt in the first episode. Though I had the impression the "family curse" of Maru's royal family was on account of the [[spoiler: spiked crown.]]

Related to the discovery at Season 3 finale that [[spoiler: Dreamland was once the elves' homeland, until Bean's ancestors drove them off and the elves placed a curse on her family as a result. Even before that, Elfo feels that he and Bean were drifting apart due to her becoming queen; while Bean sees her loved ones leave her (Elfo giving himself up), sent away (her dad sent to a crazy house), or die (Luci), and is afraid of becoming like her mom.]]

* Mostly confirmed in Season 4, [[spoiler:though the reason for their appearance is due to their magic goo. One swig of it turns Leavo into a Trog.]]

* Jossed. He's not half Trog/half elf [[spoiler:as Trogs and elves are the same species]], and his [[spoiler:ogre]] mother wanted him named Elfo so he'd be proud to be an elf.

* Confirmed, though the wrong species for his mother; she's [[spoiler:an ogre and the current Ogre Queen]].

* If you look closely during the scenes with the angry mob in [[Recap/DisenchantmentS3E8HeyPigSpender season 3's episode "Hey Pig Spender"]], you see a bear cub looking at them from the brush. This bear's face looks somewhat like Zog; this bear cub is Zog's offspring from Ursula, the forest selkie.

[[WMG: The coffee girl at "The Jittery", Mia, is also Mop Girl at the castle... and the assassin from Steamland]]
Bean said she knew Mia from somewhere, and in response, Mia specifically points out how she's BeneathSuspicion - and she is visually identical to the Mop Girl at the castle. She knows about technology from outside Dreamland, such as coffee, and is generally much more self-aware than a random peasant girl should be. As Mop Girl, she points out the unhygenic nature of how King Zog is being treated (because she can't resist, even though she's there to deal with him), which shows more high-tech knowledge, but keeps her cover because there's no particular need to risk it when the people of Dreamland are killing him for her.

* Rulo's crown is shaped like Castle Dreamland. If that motif carries over to the humans, Zog's crown is a circle of spikes sitting on a cloud.

** However, it's very interesting to note that in "For Whom the Pig Oinks", while everyone was sailing towards Mermaid Island, Bean had also stuffed her ears (along with all the men aboard the ship) to protect herself from the [[EnthrallingSiren sirens' singing]]. Whether that siren song was just magical mind control, or something that would only influence people who find it attractive, isn't clear.
