* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: In the main ''Madagascar'' films, many viewers found Mort to be a [[SweetnessAversion sickeningly sweet]] KidAppealCharacter who was only enjoyable in small doses. ''All Hail King Julien'' reimagines Mort as an unhinged AnimalisticAbomination, which most of these viewers found significantly more entertaining.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Butterfish, the heavyset lemur with a stereotypically African American voice, is a walking amalgamation of stereotypes associated with working-class Afro-American men ("I gotta go to work, baby."), and is all the funnier as a result. It helps that he's actually played by [[Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson a Black actor]] who knows exactly the kind of person he's satirizing.

Added DiffLines:

* FanonDiscontinuity: Some fans who are suscribed to the "King Julien is trans" theory prefer to ignore the show showing the previous lemur kings being male [[note]] The theory is based on lemur colonies being matriarchal in real life, so logically for Julien to be the leader he should theorically be female, so the existence of other male lemur leaders makes this a more standard case of AnimalGenderBender [[/note]].

Added DiffLines:

* MorePopularSpinoff: While not to the same extent as ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'', ''All Hail King Julien'' is widely considered much better than the films, largely for the same reasons as the Penguins' own series and the fact that Maurice, Mort, and King Julien himself have far more characterization.

* FountainOfMemes: Mort, thanks to being a weird, somewhat AxCrazy character with a canonical {{Fetish}} for Julien's feet who says a bunch of [[DemographicallyInappropriateHumor weirdly inappropriate stuff]] [[spoiler: and for being an immortal, dimension jumping and life force sucking EldritchAbomination with multiple personalities and 11 dead ex-wives]].

**Karl. Despite being a recurring villain who only shows up in AHKJ of the Madagascar franchise has his own share of fans.

Added DiffLines:

**Karl also qualifies if you think about it. His family pretty much treats him like garbage and his cockroach Chauncey is one of the only friends he ever has. It's hard to not want to hug him when he's driven to tears in a flashback episode because Julien completely ignores him on top of his family mistreating him.

** From “The King and Mrs. Mort”, was Julien genuinely sick at first, or was he faking the whole time? The fact that he was vomiting and sneezing for most of the episode suggests the former, but another episode suggests that he often fakes being sick to get out of having to do stuff, and after his kingdom wins the trophy, he spontaneously gets better.
