The Adventures of Sinbad is a Canadian action/fantasy series. It is roughly a retelling of the adventures of Sinbad the Sailor. It first aired in 1996, and was greenlit due to the popularity of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess, even having writers from them such as Craig Volk. It lasted for two seasons and a total of 44 episodes.The story followed the adventures of Sinbad, his older brother Doubar, Firouz the alchemist, the mute Rongar, and Celtic sorceress Maeve.Not to be confused with the 2012 Sky1/Syfy series, Sinbad. | |

Hotter and Sexier | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_108c268e | comment |
Hotter and Sexier: The show tried to advertise Season 2 as this, mostly by lots of fanservice shots of Bryn in the commercials. Sinbad himself also got a change in look to make him sexier. In season 1, he was a clean-shaven, short-haired Pretty Boy. In season 2, he looks more like a bad boy: his hair is shoulder-length, he has a five o'clock shadow and his sleeves are a lot shorter, exposing his biceps, along with changing from loose pants to leather ones. | |

Dirty Coward: Once disarmed of his Flaming Sword and isolated with Sinbad and Rongar, Ali Rashid's bravado disappears and he spends the rest of the episode frantically trying to escape by any means necessary and only fighting back when cornered with no escape. | |

| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: Attempted. Mustapha, who featured prominently in the first episode only to die in the second. However, since he wasn't in the opening credits, it was obvious from the beginning he was only a Sacrificial Lamb. | |

Deal with the Devil: Literally: Rumina kills Sinbad and gives him the sailor's soul, and he resurrects Turok for her. As a 'down payment' he reanimates Turok's head. He also throws in a trinket to power her up as well. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: Whatever Maeve's issue with Rumina was, and the subsequent mystery of Dermott. It's implied that Dermott is actually Maeve's brother (possibly twin, given they shared an occasional Psychic Link), who was transformed into a hawk by Rumina for rejecting her. To some extent with Sinbad's rainbow bracelet. The titular guest star of "The Ronin" bore one, as did Bryn. It was eventually revealed that the bracelets were given (by whom, it wasn't said) to those with the potential to change the world. The idea was that the series finale would involve Sinbad having a vision of all those throughout the centuries who had, or would, be awarded the bracelet, including Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jnr. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: In "The Ties That Bind", Maeve is doing well against a bunch of Vikings... until the second-in-command grabs her and she can't struggle fast enough to avoid a blow on the head, leading her to be the Distressed Damsel. It makes sense, considering said second-in-command is played by a professional wrestler, Bret Hart, who's no stranger to grabs like that. | |

Logical Weakness | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_83641c73 | comment |
Logical Weakness: Kris Kattah's Sword of Hades turns him into an Nigh-Invulnerable air elemental. The heroes realize as he's now made of air, he can be blown away like it. They use a machine to create a strong enough wind to do so. It's implied he's not actually dead, but dispersed to the wind for all eternity. | |

Eldritch Abomination | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_8774fb47 | comment |
Eldritch Abomination: One episode introduces the Old Ones, a group of ancient gods older than time. They once ruled the world, but turned on and killed one another in a war for dominion over the planet. Even dead, the Old Ones' power completely negates all magic but their own.Within the small bit of the world they still control, they're capable of borderline Reality Warping and making people see extremely realistic illusions. Subverted, as they're simply illusions by the Trickster. | |

Unscrupulous Hero | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_90328f91 | comment |
Unscrupulous Hero: Sinbad was very deliberately changed (arguably derailed) into one of these for the second season to fit in with the darker and edgier aesthetic the producers were aiming at. | |

Five-Man Band | |
| The Adventures of Sinbad / int_92587498 | comment |
Five-Man Band The Hero: Sinbad, as the leader of the group The Lancer: Doubar, as Sinbad's older and somewhat wiser and more level-headed brother. The Smart Guy: Firouz, alchemist and tinkerer who couldn't fight worth a damn The Big Guy: Rongar - though he wasn't as physically strong as Doubar he was the most skillful fighter in the group The Heart: Maeve, later Bryn. Both were sorceresses, and Maeve was also a harmonizing aspect in the group. | |
