Trivia / King Arthur & the Knights of Justice

• Recycled Script: Two cases stand out:
  • "The Warlord Knight" and "What the Key Unlocked" both see Lance fall into the depths of a body of water and be assumed dead. In both cases it triggers a Heroic BSoD in their partner at that time, the first being Breeze and the second Arthur. And in both cases, the Lady of the Table is instrumental in getting Lance back safely, commending him on his innate goodness.
  • "To Save a Squire" and "Winter Campaign". In the former, a lady-in-waiting, Mary, comes along with the Knights to save a family member, her nephew Everett, and in addition to the true danger must also handle the prejudice of the Knights, in particular this one guy, Tone. In the latter, a lady-in-waiting, Elaine, comes along with the Knights to save a family member, her uncle Edward, and in addition to the true danger must also handle the prejudice of the Knights, in particular this one guy, Darren. There are contextual differences, such as that Mary actually is a good fighter while Elaine is more of a capable civilian, but the overall rhythm is the same. "Winter Campaign" more or less pretends "To Save a Squire" didn't happen because none of the Knights act like they've had a woman on the team before.
• What Could Have Been: The entire franchise was Cut Short for unknown reasons, the best bet being poor toy sales. Both the cartoon and comics have an open ending as a result, while the SNES game changed it's supposed ending from Morgana summoning a dragon and escaping to Morgana turning into a dragon and being defeated specifically to give the audience closure.
  • As far as toys go, the Slime Pit of the first wave never got released. A second wave was planned and shown off at Toy Fair 1993. Known items include Viper's horse (listed as "Evil Horse") and Darren's crossbow cart. Based on fictional focus, likely candidates for a second wave would've been Tone, Breeze, Blackwing, and Lucan along with his cart.
  • If the story wouldn't have been Left Hanging, presumably the Knights would have gone on to retrieve all twelve Keys of Truth, free the real Knights, and return home. "Winter Campaign" and "Enter Morgana" also suggest that the Knights would receive backup from another army in the way the Warlords got help from the Purple Horde. Speaking of which, "The Cure" was the last episode to feature the Purple Horde, so a season 3 would've had to deal with the fallout from Morgana's betrayal.
