a5c7b9f00b Danger Mouse is a British children's animated television series based on the 1981 series of the same name. The series is produced by FremantleMedia and premiered 28 September 2015 on CBBC. The series revolves around the capers of Danger Mouse, a British spy, and his hamster sidekick, Penfold. Chances are nobody was really ready to put of the bunting when it was announced that 80s children's favourite Danger Mouse was being revived. After all said plenty online why not just show the David Jason era episodes again, its notif they've dated in any meaningful way - the new series essentially proves that to be truethey have changed very little in terms of tone and style. Sure the visuals are slicker but they are very much patterned after the original look and feel while the script and voice characterisation could almost be lifted straight. The casting is pretty much perfect Alexander ArmstrongDM knows when to raise a vocal eyebrow and Kevin Eldon is perfectPenfold, capturing the essential traits of the little guy who'd love to be big if only he was brave enough (and actually he's happy enough leaving the derring-do stuff to Danger Mouse). The stories aredafta brush and all the better for it - its hard not be smile when the villain in an episode is a toilet which has gone through an unintended forced software upgrade. The gags come quick and often and many of the quips will surely zoom right over the heads of the supposed core audience. As such Danger Mouse is arguably wasted on CBBC and instead would make a nice piece of tie-in programming with Pointless on BBC One - after all they have the same lead in both! The World's Greatest Secret Agent is back, baby. Out of all the reboots I've seen, this one has to be the best. I started watching the original show last week (watched all 11 episodes of the first season), and then I watched the reboot one day later, and I have to say, this reboot was better than I was expecting. What I like about this show is that they did a version of the original theme song and the humor in this show makes it a love letter to fans of the original (though that's not necessarily true for some, I've seen negative reviewswell). If you like the original show, chances are, you'll like the reboot. The Powerpuff Girls can learn a thing or two from Danger Mouse. The only thing I hate about this reboot is that it didn't make it in America, so they put it on Netflix instead (I hate when Netflix acquires shows and claims themtheir own). It could've been on Nickelodeon or on Disney XD, but NO! They had to put it on NETFLIX. Ugh, I'm getting off- topic here. Like I said, this show is justgoodthe original, but I'm sick of seeing reboots.
