It all started on his birthday. Dumped by his girlfriend, fired from his job, and newly homeless after his house burned down, hapless everyman WesternAnimation/{{Donald Duck}}'s fortunes appear to flip when he inherits the dilapidated, but antique-engorged estate of his great-grandfather, Clinton Coot. Along with his fellow heirs (sly conman José Carioca and daredevil hidalgo [[OverlyLongName Panchito Romero Miguel Francisco Quintero Gonzalez III]]) Donald wastes no time in trying to profit from the horde of priceless artifacts, only to be dragged kicking and screaming into an immense and deadly cosmic war.

** When The Minotaur in Episode 2 becomes enraged and attacks The Caballeros, his hair turns [[Anime/DragonBallZ gold]].

* NeverSayDie: Averted! The characters say the word "die" freely and Felldrake even says "[[SeeYouInHell See you in Hades]]." [[spoiler:And then the cast explicitly ''dies'' in "Mt. Fuji Whiz".]]

* MythologyGag
** As in the original film, the story starts on Donald's Birthday of Friday the 13th, though the usual bad luck of Donald Duck really kicks into full gear here.
** The music of Donald's frantic taxi ride over to New Quackmore is a little reminiscent of music from the film's train scene.
** Donald's mugshot from the intro of his classic shorts appears while the lawyer explains Clinton Coot's will to the Caballeros.
** The Atlas functions as a more elaborate take on the book from the film that Donald and José use to go to Bahia.
** The Caballeros's first adventure in the Labyrinth of Crete ends with a bullfight against the minotaur, much like the bullfight that ends the original film.
** The characters are able to inflate heads and other body parts in their ghost forms in the underworld, similar to Donald's botched attempt to return to normal size after shrinking in the original film.
** Several to ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse. Clinton Coot is from the Duck family tree, and the portrait shown of him in the series looks ''exactly'' like Creator/{{Don Rosa}}'s drawing of him.
** A portrait of Donald's parents, Quackmore Duck and Hortense [=McDuck=] is seen in his burning house, making the same faces they did in Don Rosa's family tree.
** Scrooge [=McDuck=]'s Money Bin can be seen in a panoramic scene of Duckburg, in the first episode. [[spoiler:It later gets a laser blast in episode 12, where Scrooge laments his money pouring out of the resulting hole.]]
** Panchito's full name comes from the ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' episode "Not So Goofy".
** Clinton Coot has some Scrooge [=McDuck=] figurines in the cabana, [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial which Panchito definitely did not break to make room for a pizza box]].
** The two homeless kittens that show up at the cabana door bear a strong resemblance to Figaro in ''Disney/{{Pinocchio}}'' and to the orange kitten in ''WesternAnimation/LendAPaw''.
** Humphrey the Bear, who starred opposite Donald in multiple Disney shorts, appears in the show starting in Episode 7, as an inanimate bear rug that comes alive when Donald throws a magical "Spark of Life" into his mouth. This is likely a reference to ''Rugged Bear'' where he disguises himself as a rug in Donald's house. In the same episode, Spike the Bee, also from Donald's shorts, makes an appearance as well as Donald's doppelgänger from ''Donald's Double Trouble'', now given the name of Dapper Duck.
** In "Shangrila-Di-Da", Donald addresses a voice during his therapy session as "Mr. Spirit", as he often did in ''WesternAnimation/DonaldInMathmagicLand''.
** Merlin's tower in "Thanks a Camelot!" is the same decrepit wreck it was in ''Disney/TheSwordInTheStone''.
** Merlin himself bears a resemblance to Professor Owl from the ''Adventures in Music'' duology shorts and the ''WesternAnimation/DisneySingAlongSongs'' video cassettes.
** King Arthur bears a strong resemblance to King Richard from ''Disney/RobinHood''.
** The tiny goblin in ''Stonehenge Your Bets'' resembles Creeper from ''The Black Cauldron'', whereas a big cat in the same episode wears the same face as Lucifer from ''Disney/Cinderella''.

** Merlin himself bears a resemblance to Professor Owl from the ''Melody'' shorts and the ''WesternAnimation/DisneySingAlongSongs'' video cassettes.

* CastingGag:
** Xandra, the Goddess Of Adventure, and an action girl, is voiced by Creator/GreyDeLisle Griffin. She's described as having Greek features. Why does [[WesternAnimation/JLAAdventuresTrappedInTime that]] [[WesternAnimation/LegoDCComicsSuperHeroes sound]] [[WebAnimation/DCSuperHeroGirls familiar]] ?
** Dee Bradley Baker voicing the Aracuan Bird is [[Film/SpaceJam another]] [[WesternAnimation/WabbitALooneyTunesProduction instance]] of him voicing a screwy bird like character.

* TheChewToy: Take a wild guess?
The first episode ''really'' piles on Donald with disaster after disaster for him... and on his birthday too!

* SourSupporter: April, May and June are shaping up to be this for the Caballeros.

* RoleReprisal: Donald and Daisy are once again voiced by Tony Anselmo and Tress [=MacNeille=]. There's also Jim Cummings as both Pete and Humphrey the bear.
