DuckTales 2017

[The Caped Knight]

More than missing Ducktales, I'll miss this incarnation of Darkwing Duck. There's still no telling if the Seth Rogen Disney+ Darkwing Duck will be its own thing or this version. Still, they perfectly set it up here and it's unfortunate that we won't get to also see more of this take on Darkwing Duck.

That episode was one of the best written episodes of an animated series I’ve encountered in years

Yeah I'm still unsure what that show is supposed to be. Is Seth Rogen simply doing a brand-new take on the property?

Granted, I realize the original Darkwing Duck was not connected to DuckTales other than the appearance of familiar characters like Gizmo Duck and Launchpad. According to Tad Stone it was just like an alternate universe. Same characters but in a completely different, unconnected storyline. Not necessarily a "shared universe.'

Almost forgot the final season starts tonight.

 

[The Caped Knight]

So Kit has inherited the Seaduck from Baloo

 

[Albright]

he looks very much like Baloo...

 

[The Caped Knight]

It was nice to hear bits of the classic theme play in the promotional ad for Higher for Hire

 

[Gold Samurai]

I wish they had time to explain WHY it's Kit and not Baloo. Rights issue? Kit is a TailSpin creation after all

 

[terry78]

They said on tv tropes it's a copyright issue or something.

 

[Albright]

Right issues? Baloo is a Disney character - why are their right issues within another Disney property?

Disney are very protective of certain characters such as Mickey Mouse

 

[cabel]

Baloo was originally a Jungle Book character so maybe it has something to do with Kipling’s estate

Oh yeah. That resulted in a VERY hilarious scene with Melon Mickey



Castaway Donald to the expressions from the duck brothers. It was very funny.

No Baloo, no Becky, no explanation why Higher for Hire is in even worse shape than before. At least there was a brief Molly cameo.

Next week is the Final episode of Clan McDuck

 

[NotNickFury]

At the start, I didn't expect Louie to do as well as he did as Scrooge's defense. But by episode's end, he impressed me.

[The Big G]

Im not ready for this to end tomorrow

 

[terry78]

Disney Plus really should finish it like I said but they gonna do their own thing.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Well that was an unexpected finale. I like it. The twist was definitely a surprise . A lot of cameos, and most of all a book end for this reboot.

 

[cabel]

Spoiler

So Webby is the clone/daughter of Scrooge while May and June are clones of Webby and technically her sisters but Donald implied him and Daisy would adopt them so that would make them Huey, Dewey, and Louie’s......

Scrooge has a very confusing family structure.

 

[terry78]

Have you seen the actual duck family tree?

 

[terry78]

Well it's over. As a fan of the original they really gave us boomers a decent reboot.

 

[NotNickFury]

Nice to see Launchpad finally get his hero moment.

Also, this promo image makes a whole lot more sense now.
