Talespin is a major inspiration for my "babu frik driving a small car" pitch. Say what you will about how creative it is or whatever, but character driving a vehicle is a proven formula

As a kid Tale Spin was my favourite, then Duck Tales and then Rescue Rangers was a distant 3rd. Of the disney stuff.

Along with Darkwing Duck these are all apparently in some kind of shared continuity. The most recent Duck Tales has an episode with the kid in Tale Spin as a grown up loser running the failing sea plane business. The clips I've seen of it on YouTube kind of make me want to check it out to see if it's worth watching with the kids.

As a cool kid who watched nickelodeon and cartoon network and animes, the ducks shows and talespin already seemed like insane fever dreams. I was baffled to grow up and learn people were nostalgic for these things.

I was also a darkwing duck kid, but I think its appeal was very specific to that period and it's not adaptable to the current media ecosystem in the way talespin is. You couldn't do darkwing duck with babu frik. ...Or could you?

Gargoyles was the gateway to “adult” drama cartoons for a LOT of weirdos and theater dorks.

Sagebrush posted:I though it was Talespin that had a fat pilot and a too-sexualized-for-a-kids-show squirrel woman, but then I realized on that show it's a fat pilot and a too-sexualized-for-a-kids-show bear woman. A mom bear in a sweater and high-waisted mom pants, voiced by Sally Struthers. So sexual!

i am upset with myself for knowing what each and every one of these disney cartoons mentioned are despite the fact i watched exactly zero of them as a child (nickelodeon/cartoon network kid). internet osmosis has poisoned my brain worse than lead did to boomers.

With the popularity of superheroes it's really surprising Disney hasn't rebooted Darkwing Duck.

Also, Gargoyles was the greatest kids show of all time AND it starred Keith David, making it the best show of all time

In my town all this poo poo was on the Disney Channel, which cost extra on cable so we didn't have it. It was all X-Men and Spider-Man after school at my house.

Monkey’s paw curls, Frankie Muniz is tapped for the live action grim-dark revival to one of Disney’s satellite studios and gets insanely jacked on HGH for the roll.

I'm sad no one ever seems to remember Fluppy Dogs. You know, the one about talking dog creatures that has the same interdimensional crossing premise as Sliders. Ripe for a reboot in the current multiverse obsessed media environment. It being a thanksgiving special that was supposed to act as a pilot for a series that never materialized probably has something to do with it. But I remember those invisible doors and crystal keys.

There’s a panel discussion with some of the cast where they were like “a big part of why gargoyles rocked is because we were all friends and had great chemistry from TNG” it sounds like it was a real love fest.

They were huge parts of the design team, and John Howe is legit armor/swords nerd which is why all of the armor is functional, meaning the actors can move around properly in it. Like John would go take blunt practice swords into the parking lot with other designers and spar to blow off steam.

I never really liked Darkwing Duck in that whole duck block. It is surprising they haven’t tried to do a Tale Spin reboot.
