They really are making this for the older millinails to watch with their young kids.

I like that they went all the way with every metaphor required. The equivalent of Hannibal Lecter was a serial vandal.

I think that was its best episode and it was the very first one it did.

The trailer in question, for the curious.

I do kind of love that, for being the rational skeptic of the lot, Huey is still totally jazzed to meet Literally Zeus.

Apparently the next actually new episode will be The Spear of Selene, on May 4th.

Get excited for a Della episode!!!!

Unlike Steven Universe, DuckTails is getting straight to the point.

To be fair, the episode will certainly lack Steven's cutting edge.

All is becoming right with the world. A battletech game is out, comic book movies are mostly good and all the cartoons I used to watch are returning, but better.

Are you saying that someone is making your country, which I'm assuming to be America, great again?

Watched the new episode on Disney app this morning. Was OK, kind of underwhelming overall but still decent TV. Storkules was hilarious though.

Specifically because a movie is in the pipeline.

It's almost certainly going to be CGI imposed on live action, I'm sorry.

Specifically because there's a movie in development hell, actually.

Anyway, the new episode was great and frankly a lot better than a bunch of others this season. Hoping the trend continues.

If I had to guess, it blew up/vanished on the Moon, and Donald blames Scrooge for having a shoddily-built rocket, but Della survived and is on the Moon and they're gonna go rescue her, and the Moon Theme is gonna play as they fly up to the Moon.

The shows been good so far, but you know who I'm kind of hoping shows up eventually? Daisy. I dunno, I just like her. I know she wasn't featured in the original Ducktales cartoon, but maybe she'll show up here?

Did they actually go to the moon in the original cartoon? I thought that was only a video game thing.

It's just the game but I heard somewhere (but haven't seen any corroboration since so grain of salt) that they said at sdcc that they are planning to use that theme.

It was indeed Jim Cummings, I just looked it up to be sure. Hopefully we'll be seeing more of DW in the future, I kind of like the new Fenton/Gizmoduck as well.

Exploration is ill-advised.
Impressed a bit that the episode has Gyro Gearloose, Fenton Crackshell and Mark Beaks, and they're all entirely distinct and contrast each other. Gyro Gearloose assumes everyone else is an idiot and he needs to explain everything (and he does, but it doesn't help) while Fenton is more openly friendly and assumes everyone can keep up with him, which is actually far more dangerous. While Mark Beaks knows how to sell things to people and tells them what they want to hear.

I wasn't sold on last week's episode (Especially since the title implied it was going to go a lot deeper into the lore than we ended up getting), but this week's was definitely a gem. Every character in the episode was completely insane in their own unique way, and it was incredibly fun to watch them bounce off each other.

Exploration is ill-advised.
I mentioned before it seems like Mark Beaks is the equivalent to Rockerduck for this show; more willing to splash money around and try out fancy new things, albeit mostly stolen stuff not properly tested. Interesting that Scrooge, who hated him at first, is entirely willing to work with him if Beaks is selling a product he wants, though obviously wants to make sure it works first. (especially after this fiasco when it turned out to be a stolen McDuck Industries product in the first place)

And this episode confirms that Scrooge keeps Launchpad as a pilot and driver because he's exactly the right kind of crazy and reckless that Scrooge needs.
