Well no promises but I will reach out to Toks. If that doesn't work, I will bug her husband Sean which is how I know her. Give her a few days as she has to get it past her publicist and what not.

The Dutch names were pretty on point as well: Donald duck, Dagobert Duck (scrooge, for some reason not Mc), Guus Gans, etc. They basically kept the names that would change too much the same, and the others they changed to the Dutch version. The song even worked pretty well.
Still, English version is better. I still need to find those "The life of Scrooge Mcduck 1-10" comics somewhere. The one we had were all torn up from reading.
Yeah I do understand some Dutch actually, since I used to study German a lot back in school and Dutch is quite similar to German - and some of my favourite YouTube videos happen to have Dutch speakers, which motivated me to practise that language a bit as well - and I checked the Dutch lyrics a while ago, and they seemed cool;
some of the parts were very similar to the English lyrics, and then I think there was also a line like "All that you have ever dreamed about happens in DuckTales" or something like that.

I've yet to see a good reboot of a cartoon from my childhood but here's hoping.
I love the theme song to this show.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
It's nice to see that the majority of you seem to be looking positively at this (though, I respect the opinion of those who aren't). I think remakes/reboots/adaptations should be looked at positively myself, as they usually aren't made to spite the original or anything. I think doing your own take on something can be fun, so maybe at least some of the people who have done remakes/reboots/adaptation feel the same way?
I have never seen the original, but seeing Bobby Moynihan and Beck Bennett in this kind of makes me wanna see this since I love both of those guys so much!
That looks pretty cool! Glad they're obviously unafraid to deviate from the original series to some extent, that's a good way to dissuade people from getting too hung up on comparisons.
Looks pretty good actually. So far it appears to be capturing the spirit of the original without simply being a carbon copy of it.

That's one crisp looking cartoon.
It's already been approved for season 2.
I watched the original when I was little, but couldn't remember much at all, and started to re-watch the older one today- the original is worth watching imo just for the experience. The animation is very cute and child-friendly, but then has moments like a mind- controlled Donald telling somebody to fed his own nephews to be eaten alive by vultures, and a shadow of Scrooge being strangled and the shadow of his body struggling and then flopping to the ground.
The original is pretty wild.
