The Back to the Future Cartoon

Knuckles · 04-25-2003, 08:08 PM

Okay--has anyone been watching the Back to the Future cartoon on Fox? I only watch the channel (and TV, for that matter) for Ninja Turtles, and I was wondering if it was a totally new cartoon, or just reruns of the old one. I vaguely remember the old BTTF cartoon from when I was a kid, and I've seen pictures from the new one, and the style looks very similar to what I remember. Plus it has Bill Nye doing science bits on it, which I remember him doing on the old one. Haven't been able to find info on whether it is new or not, and I haven't seen it yet, so just thought I'd poke around here to see if anyone knew. It would strike me as odd if they started showing the old reruns again after all this time, but since it seems so similar to what I remember, I had to ask. Thanks in advance if anyone knows.

I can't believe I used to watch that show, it's horrible.

Yeah, as a kid I was BTTF fan, but still hated the cartoon...

Are you kidding me? I love this show! They came up with some funny ideas, except the weird fact that they keep running into Biff Tannen's ancestors.

Thanks for the info. As for what other people have said--not sure whether I even enjoyed the show or not, but I was thinking there was gonna be an all-new series, so it's kinda disappointing.

I was a bit excited about the BTTF cartoon. I forgot about the horrible old cartoon, and was rudely reminded of it when I saw it on the premiere date.

hmmm. . . you think that if they are showing a toon from 15 years ago (Back To The Future), they might show the old TMNT toon?

that would be awesome! i would gladly take off the rerun at 9:00 and put on the old toon there. that would be so wicked!

You mean the repeats, right? As much as I like them, it would be awesome to have them air the classic TMNT cartoon back to back with the new series!
