Thanks to a cartoon viewing site I made my way through this series and I just want to say my thoughts on it now.
I think DiC likely heard complaints from people the original show's animation was so poor it needed to be changed. This show if you don't count how it's opening credits got badly recycled, had better animation in it.
Another note at guessed formula to the show's treatment. Aside from it being a form of counterpart to Inspector Gadget's Field Trip. That with how it amusingly misrepresented history and attempted to relay minor fact. I think it was meant to sometimes make kids question WTF and grab for a history book to discover how wrong things were being represented to them.
Second I really have to wonder what Don Adams thought of the scripts he got handed for this one. The frequent and often feeling very misused one liners from Get Smart getting used. True, that show was referenced in the Classic series, but it was on a much more minimal level for that one.
How do you classify I guess fourth wall breaking when the lead noted voice actor is verbally said in an episode?
Not the first time as some of you know from reading my author comments to my fan fiction, I've inadvertently used a canon idea in writing. One thing I wrote with Jake, I noticed with this show got used in canon.
- Non-canon written months back I put Jake scaring Heather with how fast he likes to speed through the PDL System in driving it.
- Canon Gadget Boy noted as not old enough to drive, scares the crap out of Henry Ford while driving a car.
