Line 61:
** Tinker Bell's teasing of Peter, per the book, was kept in.
* [[Grand Finale]]: The final episode, "The Lost Memories of Pirate Pan", didn't conclude Peter's adventures with Wendy and the others, it did provide closure for the viewer and provided a glimpse at the future of Wendy, John, Michael {{spoiler|and Wendy's daughter, Jane}}.
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: See [[Tim Curry]] below.
* [[Hook Hand]]: You have one guess.
* [[Ignored Epiphany]]: In the [[Yet Another Christmas Carol]] episode {{spoiler|Hook seems deeply shaken by the idea of not only being killed by Peter, but being completely forgotten too. This seems like the moment when he would repent... but instead Hook resolves to be much, much worse, so that Peter will ''never'' forget him. Also, one would think that Hook's [[Freudian Excuse]] would make him more sympathetic to Peter and the Lost Boys, but you'd be wrong}}.
Line 81:
* [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent]]: The crocodile, of course.
* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: Often, whenever the pirates think they've lost Hook or Hook himself thinks otherwise, they decide to set sail for "The Spanish main" and leave behind Neverland. They never do, but...
* [[Shout -Out]]: The Fairy King is named Oberon, as in [[Shakespeare|Shakespeare's]] ''A Midsummer Night's Dream'', while his queen is named Gloriana, as in [[The Faerie Queene]].
** And also to the 1940 [[Pirate]] movie, ''[[The Sea Hawk (Film)|The Sea Hawk]]'', the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-RPzAbW7No opening title-music] of which (by [[Erich Wolfgang Korngold]]) obviously inspired the cartoon's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hg9qPei7W0 theme music].
* [[Sixty Five Episode Cartoon]]: With the last two episodes being a two-part [[Grand Finale]].
* [[Slippy -Slidey Ice World]]: The Ice King's caves.
* [[The Starscream]]: Robert Mullins.
* [[Swiss Army Tears]]: In the end of the two-parter "Ages of Pan", Neverland is disappearing because Peter Pan has grown up to be an old man, doesn't believe in Neverland and has forgotten about Tinker Bell. Then Tinker Bell's one tear falls on old Peter and turns him young again -- and Neverland is saved.
Line 97:
* [[The World Is Always Doomed]]: A lot of things seem to be "the end of Neverland" if they happen.
* [[Yet Another Christmas Carol]]: Inverted, despite a good section of the script being lifted verbatim from the original story. {{spoiler|When the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come shows Hook that, after his death, he dies alone and forgotten even by Peter Pan, he gets the pirate crew together for a Christmas raid on the Lost Boys' hideout, swearing that he'll be ten times worse from now on so that Peter will never forget what a terrible pirate he was.}}
* [[Your Mind Makes It Real]]: The first season finale, when Peter takes Hook's accusation that he never grows up because he ''can't'' as a dare, and his grown-up act soon becomes [[Overnight Age -Up|a rapidly-aging reality]]. This causes the gradual decay of Neverland, in one of the most riveting forms of [[Nightmare Fuel]] ever in a kids' cartoon.
