Recap / All Hail King Julien S 04 E 01 The All Hail King Julien Show

Go To

Tired of watching Xixi's news show, King Julien decides to add additional channels of programming for the kingdom to watch, only for a Reality Show following his life to become the most popular show on the air.


Tropes:

  • Continuity Nod: Andy Fairfax appears on a commercial, still trying to peddle scorpions as self defense weapons, this time marketing to children.
  • Not So Above It All: Despite agreeing with Maurice that they should stop whatever Julien was planning, Clover quickly joined in on Julienvision when she got her own show.
  • Odd Couple: King Julien pitches a show where Doctor S and Nurse Phantom star as odd couple roommates.
  • Person as Verb: Given his tendency to panic, Willie seems to have become synonymous with over-reacting.
    Pancho: I hate to be a Willie...
    Willie: What the heck, man?!
  • Protection Racket: Pancho hosts a segment with Xixi to explain how easily the kingdom could be robbed by someone, not him but someone like him, and advertises a service where people pay him to protect them.
    Xixi: Gee Pancho, that sounds a little like extortion.
    Pancho: Your word Xixi, not mine.
  • Running Gag: This is the first episode where Willie is singled out in a derogatory fashion, which will happen several times over the next couple of seasons and will always be met with a hurt "What the heck, man?!" from Willie.
  • Taking Over the Town: Pancho and Andy are quick to notice that Julien Vision has become so popular that the entire kingdom spends their whole day either watching or starring in shows, and help themselves to everyone's stuff while they're busy.
