== All of [[Robin Hood (TV)|Robin Hood]] actually is an elaborate performance taking place in a modern Renaissance Faire. ==
 
It would explain the large potions of [[Politically -Correct History]] and [[Anachronism Stew]] the show serves up for the viewers. Why no blood is ever seen, despite numerous fights breaking out. And why the Sheriff's guard appears to have graduated from the [[Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy]] and go down with a simple tap. And how come winter never seems to arrive. Would also go along way to explain the at times painful writing despite the cast's best attempt to work with it.
* And Kate is the director's daughter.
 
Line 58:
... and most of the main characters were reincarnated as the Marauder-Era HP characters.
 
Robin, Marian and Guy were, of course, [[Reincarnation Romance|reincarnated]] as James Potter, Lily Evans, and Severus Snape. This is, in fact, only one example of MANY times that they have been reincarnated over the centuries, and they always play out the same "[[Star-Crossed Lovers|doomed]] [[Love Triangle|love triangle]]" scenario: [[Anti-Hero|Guy/Snape]] loves Marian/Lily, but because of his connection to "the dark side" she rejects him in favor of [[Lovable Rogue|Robin/James]]. This leads to Guy/Snape bringing about Marian/Lily's death (this comes about in different ways in the different lifetimes, sometimes directly, as in the case of Guy stabbing Marian, or sometimes indirectly, as in the case of Snape and Lily), and the [[My God, What Have I Done?|guilt over her death]] leads him to do a [[Heel Face Turn]]. They are destined to repeat this cycle in endless lifetimes until one of them makes a decision which breaks the cycle (most likely, Guy/Snape choosing to be good without Marian/Lily's death being necessary. Who you think she ends up with after that [[Ship -to -Ship Combat|is a matter of preference]].)
 
The other outlaws were also reincarnated as Marauders and/or members of the Order of the Phoenix. Allen became Sirius Black (the [[Lovable Rogue|charming scoundrel]]), and his brother Tom of course is Regulus. Will and Djaq are [[The Quiet One|Lupin]] and Tonks. Little John became [[The Big Guy|Hagrid]], and Much is [[Butt Monkey|Peter]] [[Bumbling Sidekick|Pettigrew]] (Robin/James is [[Et Tu, Brute?|betrayed by a friend]] in every lifetime, but who the traitor is can change depending on different factors. In the HP cycle, Allen/Sirius being born into the Black family gave him a distaste for [[Lonely Rich Kid|empty power and wealth]], which meant he was [[Incorruptible Pure Pureness|not vulnerable]] to being bribed to betray his friends. On the other hand, Robin/James having a [[Good Is Not Nice|slightly]] [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|crueler]] [[Jerkass|edge]] in the HP cycle led Much/Peter to finally get fed up of being used and belittled by his friends and turn traitor. Although they are reincarnations of the same people, different circumstances mean that they are not identical in every lifetime. Thus Much is a far more loyal person that Peter was, and would not have betrayed Robin the way Peter betrayed James.)
