Phil Hartman did at least one voice per Disney Afternoon show. He voiced a fat, overeating captain in Ducktales and a haughty pilot named Ace London in TaleSpin.

My order:

@avclub-89e8c84e17ca0dc6725e8187acc2ddc6:disqus  Yeah, the "Circe is a pig all along!" reveal is a nice piece of early mind-fuckery for kids.

@avclub-454a7bfd685393329597fdb7a92b7969:disqus I could get into a whole thing about this. I'm not a brony - I'm a cartoon fan in general - but MLP fall from grace is astonishing. They're doing things that Faust specifically was aiming to avoid. I get the sense she left because Hasbro has been way too hands on for her

Yep. It's a 4-parter, and it's as ridiculously and outlandishly awesome as it sounds.

I thought the Penguin part was better than the natives in the mountains who blindly repeat "Gold Sun" and following the dude with the coin. At least the penguins have a motivation in their pursuit for all things colored.

There's an episode where Scrooge tries to fit into high-society, so he attempts to join the… ahem… Association of Status Seekers. I have confirmed this joke was intentional.

No, that was a singular episode, but it's a FANTASTIC one. The storm cloud taps into Scrooge's and the nephews' fears and they get worse and worse until they show an evil Scrooge raging against Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and an evil Huey, Dewey, and Louie raging against Scrooge. For 3 minutes, it's really tragic and

I think it's due to her not being in that many episodes, especially toward the end.

Ma Beagle bakes all her pastries with prison-escape items inside because she has sons all over the country stuck in jail. It's one of her "things" that they play up often in later episodes.

I JUST finished watching that episode. It's insanely hilarious how fast things get out of control.

Boy, that came out clunky. I meant, in relation to MLP, that they seem to think that the new show is the only "good" show out there, and it's impossible to talk about it in relation to any other cartoon in earnestness. Everyone's entitled to their opinions, but someone once called Ducktales the "MLP of its

I was the guy he linked to - and I didn't mean to imply Glomgold WASN'T a cheat. It was more that, for being rivals, he and Scrooge make a strange number of deals with each other. I figured that Scrooge would avoid Glomgold completely - like he does with Magica and the Beagle Boys - but they tend to be on the same

VERY, VERY soon I'll be finding out the answer to this question.

Tiny Toons and Little Nemo are both hard as fuck and fuck them games.

Ducktales had 4 multi-parters in its entire run. Three of them were 5-parts, one of them was a 4-parter. All of them are surprisingly great, and I sort of like the Fenton/Gizmoduck one the best, which is kinda blasphemous, but Fenton is so many ways a sad, sad character.

Pretty much everything you said. The unique thing is that the Wuzzles were full-fledged adults and not tiny-talking-toy creatures like Fluppy Dogs or Pound Puppies.

I thought it was too. In "Robot Robbers," there's this 3-4 minute scene where Glomgold, after winning a bid to build a new bank, shows Scrooge around the construction site and his new robots to build said bank - which were created by Gyro and piloted by Launchpad! It's a rivalry that's more show-off-y than villianous,

Interesting. I found Trala La the weakest of the run so far. It's subversive but doesn't handle it very well. It refers to charities as deadbeats and sponges and the idea that Scrooge can't handle it and threatens to stay in Trala La forever is wildly out-of-character for him. Also, I love Fenton but his

@avclub-fbca7c48c185890bd31f538b91ba5fbb:disqus  got it, I think. Gummi Bears are an ancient hidden race of bears. Fluppy Dogs were inter-dimensional dogs that were in search for adventure. It was an hour-long pilot that never got past that point. It aired on Disney as a last hurrah of explicit-toy-based animation
