My 4 y/o likes it. Doesn't have the same storytelling feel as the original, but I still like it.
So Daisy Duck, Chip & Dale, the Genie from the Ducktales movie...
And now there's this:
Also Gosalyn from Darkwing Duck, grown up versions of Kit and Molly from Talespin, Bubba the Cave Duck from the original Ducktales, and Goofy. They've already teased that all the settings of those other shows exist in the show too.
I watched the first season out of curiosity. The original show was something I remember as a kid, but it was easily in 2nd or 3rd place after Darkwing Duck and Rescue Rangers in terms of the Disney Afternoon heirarchy. It ended up being quite funny and I liked the changes they made (more Donald, real characterization for the nephews, Webby, and Mrs. Beakley) and I love the classic comic book art style.
Even as an adult, it's a decently enjoyable show. I can see it being something good to watch if you have kids without going nuts
I think we have every one of these on our DVR so far, and we watch them all the time. The kid loves it, and I enjoy it more than I thought I would.
More and more people are now of the opinion that this is now far superior than the original.
I assume this new series holds more closely to the comics, right? I was never into them, but I did have a couple as a kid. I read what I had, but didn't really get into the overall storylines much. If that's accurate then I can definitely see why people would prefer this over the original cartoon.
I don't know any other words to describe the Ducktales writing staff than Galaxy Brain
