Gadget & The Gadgetinis
 

Alot of television shows from the 80's and early 90's have been redone, Gadget & The Gadgetinis has to be by far the worst, and this is coming from a guy who grew up watching Inspector Gadget. Supposibly set years after the events of the original Gadget series, Gadget & The Gadgetinis plays off as follows, Gadget no longer works for the Metro City Police Department, he now works for the US military which means he now takes orders from Colonel Nozzaire (That's right , no more Chief Quimby and self-destructing messages, sorry), and as Gadget has been promoted he now answers to the name Lieutenant Gadget, not Inspector Gadget. Brain is no longer in this one, instead Penny has built two miniture identical robots called Figget and Digget (Robots modelled on Lieutenant Gadget himself). Don't even get me started on the animation, you thought the Warner Bros turtles were bad? You ain't seen crappy till you've seen till you've seen the animation of the new show. Where as shows like Ninja Turtles 2003 have greatly enhanced the animation, Gadget and The Gadgetinis doesn't even try to improve it's images, Dr. Claw alone looks like an Empire Zerg reject. I always loved Mad Cat, here I can't stand to look at him! Oh and remember that car we all knew and loved, Go Go Gadgetmobile, a vehicle that could be either a van or a police sports car? Here it looks like some one tried to build a Chevy Bel Air replica from a sunken speed boat! No it doesn't turn into a van, nor does it look anything like the GadgetMobile from the old show. I used to love the theme song, used to sing it when the intro started, did they even bother to use the original theme? No, they subject us to a 'song' that sounds like it was sung by a numb-mouthed drunk! If you want to vomit, go ahead.

In short verdict, it is such a pitty, no, a crime that after all these years they allow the rights of such a wonderful show to fall into the hands of a bunch of no-talent hacks and let them create a new Gadget show stripped of everything that made the original such a joy to watch. :evil: Terribly disapointing.

True in all respects. That series sucked beyond belief. Thankfully, they're releasing the original on DVD in a month and a half. :D

I can't believe they got rid of Brain...DiC REALLY sucks as of late...

Anyway, I think I once saw an episode of the original that wasn't quite like the others...Gadget had a mustache, the drawings were CRUDE (Penny looked like a chinese for God's sake), the episode happened in winter. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Even the intro song was different (visually speaking).

I think that was the original episode.

That's news to me :o I'll be sure to get my copy.

meaning...?

anyone have any pictures?

It was the pilot episode I think.

Did it have a title?

I've never heard of it... did it even have Don Adams as the voice of Gadget?

No, Maurice LaMarche played Gadget in the new series, you can tell it's phony.

... :|

I don't really see Gadget speaking with Egon Spengler's toon voice.

So what you're trying to say, Jarrah, is that the "new" Gadget show was just some way for DiC to get money off the Inspector Gadget franchise?

BTW, thanks for the info...

It's not that new. It came out in the late 90s.

Actually, the Gadget & The Gadgetinis show is made by

Disney...WTF??? Still, this show was nothing but a money making scheme, right?

Doesn't surprise me, Don Adams is pretty old so he probably couldn't do it.

Well how'd you ever guess?

Damn Disney. Money grubbing idiots. Oh well...

Yeah...those live action movies they made weren't masterpieces either.

I only saw the first movie.
