I really wish I had known about this through some sort of trade paper that they were in the early stages of making this show... mainly to try to see if I could get a shot at writing it.
Most of the important people are dead, Paul Frees, Bill Scott, and I don't know if any of the original writers are still around. Hopefully June Foray will come back as the voice of Ursula.... Keith Scott did a damn good job with the character's voices for the movies (he was the narrator for the first George film, and ALL the male cartoon voices for the Bullwinkle movie), and I heard he does a lot of work for Theme park based Bullwinkle attratcions (BTW, he is NO relation to Bill Scott... it's just a coincidence). Corey Burton also would be a good candidate.... as I said back in the Gummi Bears DVD thread, he took over the voice of Gruffi after Bill passed on. He also did the voice of Snidley Whiplash... but then again, no Hans Conried characters appeared on George of the Jungle.
I also like the character designs didn't stray too far from the original designs. Usually they some how tweak or reinvent the appearance.
As for the films, I liked George 1 and 2 (it made fun of Disney not being able to afford Brendan Fraisier. Bullwinkle was enjoyable to an extent (the girl agent ruined the film), but Dudley Do-Right wasn't that good... it was completely off. Snidley was okay.
One other thing... George is the only character I've seen... so does it mean we'll get new Super Chicken and Tom Slick cartoons too? (hoping more for Super Chicken than Tom Slick)
