"Warlord of Saturn"; "Who'll Kill Rocket Robin?"; "The Plot to destroy N.O.T.T.": The Warlord of Saturn is a despot scheming to rule the galaxy. He captures Little John and brainwashes him in order to destroy Robin and his Merry Men and take over New Sherwood Forest Asteroid. Allying himself with the Baron Blank, Mister Cool, and Laser in order to destroy Robin, the Warlord plans to have them killed once they've served their purpose. Stealing the Galactic Doom missile, the Warlord blackmails Prince John into surrender or he will use the Doom missile to destroy the asteroid of N.O.T.T. and all its surrounding planets, including Earth.
"Dementia Five" & "Return Trip": Infinata is a powerful psychic and ruler of Dementia Five. Learning that the people of the planet Gorth discovered his secrets, Infinata uses his powers to destroy their entire galaxy, Gamma Za. Finding out that the Library of Gorth is in Robin's possession, Infinata pulls him and Will Scarlett into Dementia Five and tries to persuade them to give up the library by tormenting them with illusions. Encountering Robin again, Infinata puts him on the missile heading for New Sherwood Forest Asteroid, forcing him to either disable the missile or die with the rest of his Merry Men.
Memetic Mutation: Once again, pretty much exclusively limited to Canada, but any mention of Little John's "fabulous electro-quarterstaff" is unlikely to go unnoticed. To a lesser extent, the scene in which Friar Tuck scarfs back mutton legs, grapes, and other foods, taking only one bite out of each and then throwing it over his shoulder.
Nightmare Fuel: Surprisingly enough, some of the second and third season adversaries were this, particularly Manta, who could bring trees, boulders, and even an entire mountain to a semblance of life, and Infinata, "a master intelligence who controls by the power of evil thought alone." Not to mention Dr. Medulla, who somehow converted an entire planet into a giant artificial brain totally under his control, and everything connected to it, including giant plants, trees, and even volcanic craters, and had Robin not stopped him, it could have been capable of sending out impulses to control other worlds as well.
Padding: Between the lengthy opening theme, the oft-repeated "character profiles" and the show's annoying habit of recapping, in detail what just happened before the last commercial break, each half-hour episode would consist of maybe ten minutes of original animation. Five, if you factor out all of the Stock Footage.
Signature Scene: Friar Tuck eating and tossing food behind his shoulders with dramatic music playing in the background.
So Bad, It's Good: Although even then it can get pretty repetitive if you watch more than one or two episodes at a time.
Numerous villains are depicted as Yellow Peril. The Warlord of Saturn is most notable, but others like Cosmos Khan and Lord of the Underworld suffer from the same problem. Lord of the Underworld is a notable example since, unlike others, he seems to be a human and is depicted as Depraved Dwarf, another unfortunate stereotype about Asian people.
Female characters are incredibly rare and the ones who are present are portrayed rather stereotypically, mostly as damsels in distress. A notable example is Princess Lia from “The Ghost Pirates”, who has no lines except a terrified scream.
