Release

Behind the scenes
- It has a canned laugh track.
- The act of bribing Scrounger with a treat to do a job and his delighted reaction has been done before:
- Quick Draw McGraw with Snuffles in the Quick Draw McGraw segments. Scrounger and Snuffles will also work for either side just to get a treat.
- Dick Dastardly with Muttley in Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines. Scrounger also grumbles incoherently like Mumbly when he doesn't get his reward.
- Mystery Incorporated with Scooby-Doo in Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
Errors
- In the first scene Robin's Band Wagon is seen, the sign is missing an apostrophe.
- When Oxxy is first seen back at the castle after pretending to be Robin Hoodnik, he is still in his Robin Hoodnik disguise, which must've been intended as it switched back to his regular uniform when the camera moved closer to him.
- Despite being called Scurvy Manor, a letter calls it Scurvy Castle, which is probably more accurate.
