Blazing Dragons, from 1996

Terry Jones (Yes, that Terry Jones, the Monty Python one) created this utterly absurd series about a time in the Court of Camelhot, where the Dragons of the Square Table, led by the noble King Allfire and Queen Griddle as they face assorted nonsense.

Note the line in the song which goes: "We're straight, and true, and good and kind" with a different dragon for each word is as subversive as it gets as

"Straight" is Sir Blaze, "The Smartly Dressed and Fashionably Late", whose shall we say, more openly gay leanings were trimmed from the US broadcast version. The wink as be proclaims he's straight says it all really

"True" is Sir Burnevere, "The Overly Educated", who may speak the truth, but uses words that no one else udnerstands.

"Good" is Sir Hotbreath who is not bad, per se, but has a tendency to torch everything in sight uncontrollable.

"Kind" is Sir Loungelot, the lazy, arrogant Head Knight, who takes credit for everything that goes well (When the hard work is done by his smart and actually brave quire, Flicker)

I also love that the whole line is

"We're staight and true and good and kind

And we're very good at knitting.

THAT DOESN'T RHYME! THAT'S OKAY

WE'RE GOING TO SING IT ANYWAY!"

OK, so I remembered the show Blazing Dragons, which was this cute little cartoon about anthro dragons (and a few humans, plus other fantasy creatures) who basically had the roles of King Arthur and his knights, but in parody; they have a Square Table (instead of the Round Table), the sword Excaliburn (instead of Excalibur), and like Sir Lounge-a-Lot (instead of Lancelot). I could recall certain episodes and characters, but I was having trouble remembering the theme song, so I found a video and watched it with the sub-titles (because reading plus hearing it helps it form in my mind better), and... pfff, OK, I have to explain this part first; one character, Sir Blaze? He was always like, SUPER gay. I mean, he was "90s kids cartoon gay", so he was very effeminate and stylish (not quite as mockingly as you might think, he was also kinda "cool" too), but yeah. He was gay. So now I'm watching the opening theme with sub-titles, and this part-

He WINKS at the audience while singing the line "We're straight" (the rest of the verse "and true and good and kind" is spoken by the other characters, but it all goes by very quickly). Just. Haha, yeah, we're "straight" *wink*. I don't know how intentional that is by the people working on it at the time, but that is AMAZING. I miss you gay dragon knight. I hope you got a gay dragon boyfriend

What are your thoughts on how King Allfire and Queen Griddle got married?

I always had the feeling it was an arranged marriage. It doesn't seem to be loving with Griddle willing to flirt elsewhere and cheat if she could and Allfire simply not caring for most part and cringing at the very idea of being intimate with her or partaking with her hobbies (essentially a Boomer comic marriage just without the hate), but they still seem to be close enough to enjoy little walks together and him be gallant to her and among othr things she does her job of a king's queen pretty seriously in trying to marry off his daughter, teach her how to be a real Lady and shaking him off when he acts a little stupid or balless instead of a King because she knows image and people understanding his laws matter pretty much. Add to that Griddle seems to still be in loce with her late husband Sir Herman in the way she talks about him and has tears just thinking about him going missing so shr might have never moved on (and tried to by getting married again and being promiscuous but it doesn't heal her heart... oof I made myself sad)

So not loving but working, therefore arranged. Plus both are widowed single royal parents (I mean it's never said for Allfire but we guess so) and back then a king and a princess couldn't stay widowed for too long because marriages were business contracts for alliances, especially because in tradition a mother figure had to care for a father's child and a father figure had to provide fot a mother and her child

So I always saw a still grieving King Allfire having to rise a newborn Princess Flame alone being advised to remarry to consolidate the alliances of the just as new Camelhot now whatever alliance was with his late wife's family couldn't work anymore and a still grieving Princess Griddle rising a toddler Sir Blaze alone being told by her mother Queen Mammoth a mother princess couldn't stay unmarried for the sake of both her son and her kingdom. So both were looking for a new engagement at the same time, found each other's advert (with how wacky this universe is I bet royals look for spouses through the papers too lmao) and because they were just what they were looking for got married with no other reason except maybe lust/physical attraction (Allfire was canonically a buff looker when he was young and we KNOW how Griddle is into "beefcakes" plus he was famous among kings for pulling Excaliburn and we know she loves prestige ; and with how she loves to tale care of herself and acts like she isn't old we can imagine she too was beautiful and Allfire didn't mind at all) but that aside no feeling, and they just grew to tolerate each other as they aged together because they had a deal

Also personnal headcanon that King Allfire had met Sir Herman before and the 2 hated each other due to clashing personalities and styles (hence why unlike Griddle who became a mom to Flame Allfire never loved Blaze and gave him daddy issues, reminded him too much of his father to bond with) so Allfire also had an extra petty motivation that felt like flipping the bird at his grave like "I'm fucking your wife whatcha gonna do" XD

What is Blazing Dragons?

It's a franchise that parodies knights and princesses genres notably Arthurian legends with dragon main characters and human villains to defeat, created by Terry Jones who might have never participate in its writin and just created the premise but the writers did a super good hilarious job to make its humor very Monty Pythonesque even paying tribute to Holy Grail or other Python references. It consists of a 2 season cartoon and a PS1 and Sega Saturn point and click video game, but because they both were created and developped at the same time from the premise "Flicker is a very smart dragon squire and inventor who wants to be a knight to marry Princess Flame who is in love with him in return but in the meantime has to live in the shadow of his assholish and proud knight Sir Loungealot and the other dumb Knights of the Square Table - among Sir Blaze who is gay effeminate and loves to take care of hus looks and Sir Burnevere who is both smart and dumb but sees himself as super educated like Sir Bedivere from Holy Grail - with King Allfire ruler of Camelhot barely paying attention to him and has to try to become a knight all while trying to protect Camelhot from the neighbouring human noble who tries to conquer it to rule over it" and neither the game crew and cartoon crew met and talked, both results are VERY different with the characters having very different designs and personalities and the stories and in a way lores are different but still have a very similar Pythonesque feeling to them and are just as funny as each other. The whole show and the whole gameplay are both on YouTube and see which you prefer !
