Trivia

• This is last episode where Diego is voiced by Brandon Zambrano (speaking) and Matt Hunter (singing) outside of Go, Diego, Go!. They were replaced by Jacob Medrano and Joaquin Mas, respectively, in Season 7.
  • But before such, Diego will be voiced by Sebastian Aristizabal in Dora's Rescue in Mermaid Kingdom.
• Since Unicornio gave Owl the crown, he became an honorary king of the Enchanted Forest and he promised to do things that are nice and fair. But, for the next episode, his alignment is now changed from good, wily and peaceful to evil, violent and ruthless, as he's going to swipe the throne and claim it, ruin the fun and has the book of rules with the mini-owls; now taking Swiper's place as one of the next new antagonists that are being sneakier than him.
• This is supposed to be the second of three chapters in the "Enchanted Forest" trilogy. In production order and on the DVD, it is, but in airing order, it's the third as it was pushed back to airing on January 30, 2012. Considering the events in the end of this episode are carried over to the next episode, they were aired out of order.
  • This is the only episode in the "Enchanted Forest" trilogy that Diego appears in.
• The theme song is not featured in the DVD version of this episode. However, in TV airings, it was retitled to "Dora and Diego Save Atlantis" and has the normal opening sequence instead of the Enchanted Forest Trilogy opening sequence.

• This is the first Dora the Explorer episode to premiere in 2012.
• The Travel Song is not sung in this episode.
• Dora doesn't wear her regular clothes in this episode.
• Dora doesn't use Backpack and Map in this episode.
