* ContinuitySnarl: Zig-zagged. This show continues on the {{Retcon}} of the [[WesternAnimation/MegamindVsTheDoomSyndicate sequel film]] by continuing to use the Doom Syndicate and Machiavillain, which are contradictory to Megamind's established backstory of having been an evil genius since he was raised by inmates in jail and learning how to be a supervillain as a result of rejection from society. Despite this, the show doesn't completely invalidate the first film, even making a reference to Megamind's blue binky in the first film, which [[ChekhovsGun turns out to be a source of power this entire time]].

* ChekhovsGun: Megamind's binky was a brief gag in the first movie, whereas here, it's a vital part of the EvilPlan concocted by the BigBad, being revealed as an immense power source.
