I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
View MoreRecently I finished watching every episode of the original "Inspector Gadget" episode. It's kind of crazy considering I didn't even like the show as a kid. The main reason for the differences because how I perceive Gadget as a kid as an adult is that when I saw it as a kid, I didn't know who Don Adams was. Becoming acquainted with "Get Smart", I learned what a genius Don Adams was and this gave a lot more credibility to Gadget as Don Adams voiced him. "Inspector Gadget" has long been considered a spiritual successor to "Get Smart". It helps that Gadget said "sorry about that, chief" on a few occasions and even said "would you believe..." once or twice."Inspector Gadget" is one of those shows that has a set formula for what happens in each episode but it's so entertaining in action and comedy that even after 86 episodes it didn't seem stale. No matter what happens, you'll still be laughing at Gadget and cheering on his niece Penny & dog Brain as they're the real ones who save the day. You'll probably laugh at the self-destructing messages harming Chief Quimby but I always felt sorry for him.Of course you can't talk about "Inspector Gadget" without its awesome villain. Dr. Claw is always entertainingly evil (he perhaps gets his name from Get Smart's villain "The Claw"). I never get tired of hearing him threatening his underlings. His pet/punching bag, Mad Cat is also very entertaining, especially when he does random stuff like mimicking Dr. Claw's fish- shaking or tying Dr. Claw's hand to his chair for no reason.While the show was always good, it declined a bit in the second season. It seemed a tad lazy to use the same chief henchman in 3 separate episodes after all Season 1 episode used a different chief henchman. I was disappointed that they did less travel episodes and keep most of Season 2 in Metro City. The less said about Corporal Capeman the better. DIC thought he's be a welcome addition and they were wrong. One good thing I can say about season 2 is they had good parodies of movies like Ghostbusters, Gremlins, The Godfather and Arsenic & Lace. It's good to see Frank Welker & Maurice Lamarche working on the same show 1 year before they began voicing Egon & Ray in "The Real Ghostbusters".DIC was no match for Nicktoons or Disney Afternoon but they still made some dang good cartoons.
View MoreDespite the bad voice actor of Penny, and the old animation, this show is incredibly cute. You can really see the love and care between all three main characters. Inspector Gadget's dumb luck is funny every time, and each episode ends with a good safety tip for the kids. I would rate higher if the show was occasionally more serious. While I love the running gags, I would also like to see Gadget's origins, and learn more about the characters rather than watch them do the same things over and over. Too bad the series ended. This show has tons of potential, even now. I would suggest another reboot! Perhaps, one that taps into these questions. The 1999 movie was a pretty decent one.
View MoreI saw this after the movie and what to say it was so great it was quit fun to watch the characters where very well made the back ground music was quit very well done and quit simile to the doctor who music in 1987 to 1989 the story is about gadget with Peny and Brain who try to stop Dr Claw from taking over the world I really want the box set of this show on DVD because its quit fun to watch and the characters are very well made this great cartoon its on my favorite show list but its not my favorite show or my least favorite show my favorite show is doctor who my least favorite show is definitely family guy but this show is great so is the movie but the movie is very underrated and should get a better rating and speaking of which I just got the inspector gadget movie out on DVD to start off the set and to have for my Disney movies which are my favorite this show is nexit in line to my inspector gadget DVD set go go gadget this very fun as well this gets a 5 stars in my book I give this show an 8.1 out of 10. very good
View MoreI used to watch this show when I was growing up. When I think about it, I remember it very well. If you ask me, it was a good show. In addition, I especially remember the opening sequence and theme song very well. One thing I must say is that everyone was ideally cast. Also, the writing was very strong. The performances were top-grade, too. I hope some network brings it back so I can see every episode. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever, even though I'm not sure if I've seen every episode. Now, in conclusion, if some network ever brings it back, I hope that you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.
