Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: Though relatively the same as it still has him as a politician of noble upbringing who thought he could run the galaxy better than the current system, he became a Sith Lord on his own initiative.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalWimp: Played with in "Death Star Orientation" as the Imperial officer giving the orientation reveals that his Force Choke ability isn't actually a thing. Officers on the receiving end of his wrath simply [[PlayingPossum fake being choked to death]] and are given disguises afterwards. However they ''only'' do it out of fear of Vader using his lightsaber instead if he ever figured it out.

Added DiffLines:

* AccidentalHero: In "Baby Want More", his scheme of getting slapped in baby form by a nanny because it turns him on accidentally ends up exposing her as abusive to the kingdom.


Added DiffLines:

* ButtMonkey: Nothing goes right for him like in his home series, and with this show's edgier adult humor, he tends to suffer much more, up to and including death.


Added DiffLines:

* OhCrap: Says this word-for-word in "The Death of He-Man" when He-Man is killed for real, which is going to bring the whole kingdom's wrath on their heads for the first ever murder in Eternian history.

* AdaptationalVillainy: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], but this Luke is clearly not as morally pristine as his movie counterpart. Among other things, he is a regular at the [[MythologyGag Tosche Station]] strip club, sleeps with [[BrotherSisterIncest Leia]] and grins when she says that it is wrong, and ''agrees'' to Vader's offer to rule together (but falls accidentally when he tries to join him).

* AdaptationalHeroism: While still a {{Jerkass}} here, Palpatine isn't portrayed as [[TheSociopath the psychopath]] he is in canon. He's more a grumpy boss [[PunchClockVillain who happens to be a galactic dictator]]. For example, his first appearance has him apologizing to Vader for bringing up Padme after yelling at him for the Death Star blowing up, while canon Palpatine would at best not give a shit about how he'd feel.

%%* AdaptationalHeroism* AdaptationalNiceGuy: He's still guilty of his canon crimes [[WouldHurtAChild like killing younglings]][[note]]though he went to his ImagineSpot for that[[/note]] and serving a dictatorship, but he's a lot more personable here and isn't as much of a BadBoss.

* IWasQuiteALooker: We see him 30 years before the Empire is formed in the third Star Wars special, and he looks pretty good for someone who would in his own words ended up looking "like I have a scrotum for a face!"




to:

* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Played for laughs; he annoys the Sarlacc so much it takes him out of its stomach.


Added DiffLines:

* GrandfatherParadox: Happens in the "Skele-terminator" skit where he goes back to kill He-Man's dad and his mistress when he figures she might be He-Man's mom. Turns out said mistress [[LukeIAmYourFather is his mom]] [[RetGone and he vanishes]].

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: Compared to his mainstream counterpart this guy's a saint. He only ever commits acts of villainy under direct orders and tends not to embrace a CardCarryingVillain attitude.
