This Robin Hood doesn't seem tremendously well thought out to me so I'm guessing they're just absorbing popular culture. If they end up with any sort of focused message I bet it will be about the Crusades and just the Crusades.
Rewatching Robin of Sherwood a while back made me very nostalgic. It looks dates (the hair!) but it held up very well. And the writers went to a lot of effort to give it its own feel and spin on the story. It also looked more expensive than this one and had a prettier Robin (oh Michael Praed, how I loved you as a young girl!), which doesn't hurt.
