- Special Effects Failure: Hades's flaming hair doesn't look quite as good in live action as it does in animation. Notably the show would stop using it for this very reason.
- Win Back the Crowd: After the incredibly divisive reception to the Camelot and Author arcs - where characterization was mostly a second thought in favour of a Kudzu Plot (with some threads that didn't get resolved) - this saw the show rebounding. Writing suddenly had less Purple Prose and started focusing more on strong characterization.
