* ShownTheirWork: Zeus is stated to have made Danae his wife. This might sound like Bowderlization or a case of PragmaticAdaptation, but Zeus was actually closer to a serial polygamist than a philanderer and in those days, kings typically had multiple wives and sources actually state that Zeus married her.

* PragmaticAdaptation: For one example, the reason for Hercules' labours were changed. Rather than having been enchanted by Hera to slay his children, Hercules boasted he could shoot an arrow into the sun. Hera promptly sent the burning arrow back down to earth as revenge for Hercules daring to see himself as the gods' equal, resulting in a village being burned down and the labours to be performed because of that tragedy.

* AdaptedOut: Many things and to list them all would probably require an entire page and some of these are justified, since the show had only a half-hour time slot. For instance, there is no Priam or Deiphobus and thus, Paris is Troy's ruler, at the same time telling us there is no Hector, and Helen's forced husband at the time of the Trojan Horse. There is no Agamemnon either, despite Mycenae being depicted in some episodes, and the Greek side seems to be strictly Spartan and Ithacan in origin, though the episode with Circe does show that Ulysses fought alongside Achilles and Ajax, showing that the Myrmidons and Salamis were present while also raising the question if Hector actually did exist or not in the world of this retelling.
