 | | It acknowledged that cartoon fans weren't necessarily kids, and that what made the old cartoons great were the elements that had been sucked out of them by TV broadcasting (the violence, the political incorrectness). |
 | | DuckTales, a show that premiered in 1987, was Disney's attempt to "go retro" by reviving popular old characters and placing them in situations similar to those that they had faced in the cartoons (or, in this case, in Carl Barks' comic books), while still retaining the sensibility of the '80s Saturday Morning cartoon. |
 | | Random note to close this off: The show was originally to be called Tiny Tunes, but WB, influenced by the success of the term "Toon" in Roger Rabbit, apparently wanted that word to be in there, so it became Tiny Toons and then Tiny Toon Adventures. |
