It's got Dragons. Lots and lots of Dragons.
It's got no Gods. They all left due to some sort of hissy fit involving a flaming mountain or something. But there's Dragons.
Its got some dumbass hour glass eyed, golden skinned idiot of a wizard that a lot of people seemed to like for some reason. And Dragons.
There's really, really annoying Hobbit types and even more annoying really, really stupid dwarves, and possibly more annoying, really twee gnomes. And Dragons.
There's lots of cheesecake, chocolate box fantasy pictures on all the modules. A lot including scantily clad adventurers. And Dragons.
There's an over-arcing, all important, world saving plot that railroads you into doing it as written, or just read the first 3 books, or 6 books, if you like the Hour Glass Eyed, Golden Skinned idiot from above. They involve Dragons, and Gods, and the really annoying Halfling equivalents. And more Dragons.
In summary, it's a bit crap, but there's Dragons, and for a game named Dungeons and Dragons, there's often a lack of Dragons. Dragonlance did go a long way fixing this.
