Rocket Robin Hood is a Canadian science fiction animated television series, placing the characters and conflicts of the classic Robin Hood legend in a futuristic, outer space setting. It was produced by Krantz Films, Inc. and aired on CBC Television from 1966 to 1969.
The setting is the last year of the 30th century (year 3000), and a version of the despotic Prince John dominates the National Outer-space Terrestrial Territories (N.O.T.T.). Rocket Robin Hood and his Merry Men live in an asteroid named after Sherwood Forest, using spaceships to undermine John's plans. Despite the team having the term "men" in its name, Maid Marian serves as the team's only female member.
