* AdaptationalAttractiveness - A lot of the characters were not as fluffy and cute in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', female characters other than Kaink and Shodu were not present in neither the cinematic feature, nor the two Ewoks made-for TV films. See the character page for details.
* AdultsAreUseless - Happens a lot, throughout the series, as young Ewoks always save the day.
* AlliterativeFamily - Played straight with the Warrick children - they're Weechee, Widdle/Willy, Wicket and Winda Warrick. Averted with their parents, Deej and Shodu.
* AlternativeForeignThemeSong - The French theme song previously used for the made-for-TV films has nothing to do with the original themes, but it was released as a single, charted and got an award. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD4Xehh76r8 link]]
* APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil - Zarrak, the Ewok featured in ''The First Apprentice'', was Logray's first apprentice before he turned to the dark side.
* BabysittingEpisode - Two of them. In the first season's ''The Travelling Jindas'', Latara joins the nomadic tribe/species giving performances all around Endor because she's frustrated with babysitting her toddler siblings, solely to be kidnapped by Duloks in order to babysit their children. In the second season's ''Bringing Up Norky'', the gang is taking care of an obnoxiously manipulative young critter while his parents are away.
* BottomlessPits - The Realm of Spirits from ''The First Apprentice'' and Valley of Floating Trees from ''The Tree of Light''.
* CharacterExaggeration - for the second season of the show, some notable characters from the first season were reduced to a non-speaking role, almost all the voices were re-cast and the characters' personalities and appearance changed. The only one who remained more or less the same was princess Kneesaa.

* ChekhovsGift - Wicket gives a rock on a necklace to Kneesaa in ''The Curse of the Jindas''. Everybody laughs at it, but the rock is actually [[spoiler: Stone Wizard's long-lost tooth which will free the Jindas from their curse]].
* ChildhoodFriendRomance - It's the WordOfGod that this happened to Wicket and Kneesaa long after the series' ending, after ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', even.
* ComicBookAdaptation - The series was accompanied by a series of fourteen licensed comic books, a couple of Spanish two-page comics of somewhat dubious origin and one licensed UK annual, as well as some young reader books. All of that was produced between 1985 and 1988 and these comics (as well as books) are considered to be a prequel to the animated series. However, a comic titled ''Shadows of Endor'' published in 2013 is set in the time after the animated series, but before ''Film/StarWarsEwokAdventures'' and ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi''. A scene from the later, where Wicket is poking princess Leia Organa with his spear, appears at the very end of the comic.
* ContinuityNod - ''Battle for Sunstar'', the very last episode (though not initially aired last), where Dr. Raygar tries to steal the Sunstar and overthrow Emperor Palpatine implies that the events of the series took place sometime between {{Film/A New Hope}} and Film/StarWarsEwokAdventures.
* EndOfAnAge - The above episode implies that the Empire is set to use Endor as a base in the near future (for building the second Death Star) and that the world as the denizens know it will inevitably change.
* FamilyHonor - The first season episode ''Wicket's Wagon'' is centered around this, as the Warrick brothers find an abandoned battle wagon in the forest. Having learnt that it's built by his grand-grandfather, Wicket decides to rebuild it and later, when [[spoiler: the Duloks steal it, get it back.]]
* FindTheCure - The plot of first season episode ''To Save Deej'' and ''Rainbow Bridge'', the very first in the series of comics revolve over a character's life being in danger and finding ingredients for an antidote.

Eventually, [[spoiler: she comes across her old flute, realises that this was a test of her morals and her friends are set free.]]
* SetBonus - The Sunstar Shadowstone from ''Sunstar vs. Shadowstone'', referred to as simply 'Sunstar' in later episodes, is more powerful once the evil Shadowstone part from Morag's staff and the good Sunstar part hidden in master Logray's hut are combined. The evil part is significant only one more time, in the season two episode ''Night of the Stranger''.

* SwissArmyTears - In the second season episode, ''The Wish Plant'', Kneesaa revives the plant by crying on it.
* SwordAndSorcerer - Wicket and Teebo in the first season, often depending on each other's skills. Played for laughs in the second season, especially in the ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin episode ''A Warrior and a Lurdo''.

The first season of the show featured rich and detailed animation combined with well-crafted storylines; while the second season featured many changes to make the show appealing to younger audiences - some characters were reduced to background cameos, some others exaggerated.

* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo - Throughout the first season, Latara seems to be talking only about Teebo when alone with Kneesaa (who teases her for it), calling him "honeydrop" and claiming that she "does not have it that bad". In the second season, when their characters are exaggerated; Teebo is doing everything for Latara's attention, while she's playing hard to get. Finally, [[spoiler: she kisses him in ''Tragic ''The Tragic Flute'' and while the series ends with no further romantic interaction implied, they're indeed together in the ''Shadows of Endor'' comic.

The first season of the show featured rich and detailed animation combined with well-crafted storylines; while the second season featured many changes to make the show appealing to younger audiences - some characters reduced to background cameos, some others exaggerated.
