Recent Gadget Cartoon

[Janevapau]

I'm not sure about DVD releases. I think I heard a rumor going around that they might be bringing out a box set of all the eps in late 2007, but I don't know much else.

I also heard a rumor of a game or something. RPG/Platform. But, that was a while ago now that I heard it.

So, just for the record - What are your favorite characters?

Perhaps it's due to the fact the once great, now complaicent Mainframe are now animating Gadget, but the original series is currently getting a DVD release so it may mean we'll get around to the Gadgetini seasons sooner or later (The UK relesed a five episode DVD of the first Gadgetini season)

Hmm... is Buena Vista behind this? I know MGM released the animated Movie DVD (the first one, not the CGI one to my knowledge), and Shout does DIC series box sets.

Anyway...

The SNES game was fun, but I've heard nothing but bad things about recent games. I once tried my hand at the Game Boy Color one, but it was terrible.

So, just for the record - What are your favorite characters?

Even though I've never seen it, that would have to be Gadget.

BTW... were there any tips of the hat to Capeman? I'd feel it disappointing if he didn't come back from Secret Agent school a great hero with rippling muscles and a much higher IQ.

No, but there was a two part story that saw the return of Brain (but he was so out of character it disgusted me, thank god that was only in the first Gadgetini season that nobody thinks is any good), apparantly covering Gadget's ass so many times caused him to snap and he became a nervous, reluctant dog who broke away from the family and lived on his own.

Oh god, CAPEMAN!

I had forgotten all about that guy. I remember hating his guts as a kid, though I would totally get a kick out of him if they did what you just described.

They could bring back Townsend Coleman to reprise the role, except he can use his Tick voice this time around.

Ohhh that would be awesome.

Yeah... he'd grow up to be the EXACT opposite of what he was. I didn't hate him too much... but I think the character was ahead of his time. I mean, it would work better today, with fat dorky guys co-splaying as super heroes at comic conventions.

Haha, yes. Gadget is quite brilliant in it. I myself have a few favorites, because I'm greedy. Hehe.

Inspector Prince - Quite simply, she is adorable. She is so sarcastic at times that it splits my sides. I love how she is not a clichéd character too and that is a refreshing change. Plus she looks damn hot in her underwear.

Miss Molly - Who DOESN'T like Miss Molly. (I mean, besides jealous Claw fangirls and anti-female character types.) She is one of the most ruthless 'bad-woman' types I've seen. I love how sneaky she is and her outfit is just fabulous. Anyone who is with Claw gets my respect.

Agent Dick - I loved this M.A.D agent in the original 1983 series. There was always something odd about him and he is no different in this series. His character is outstanding. Whenever he is involved in the story you can be sure it makes for some heart-rending moments.

Alright, we've been outed. As part of the fanbase, it was partially my job to really push the show, but it's been revealed as the hoax it always was, but I applaud everyone in on the joke for pushing it as long as it lasted.

Uhhhh... say wha?!?!

The show was fake. You heard me. F-A-K-E, it's our DB AF, we pushed the joke for three years, then someone got clever about it and exposed it on Youtube.
