I also love how Della's still that supportive mom even when Dewey shot her passion in the gut at first XD
Dewy's biggest episode in season 1 involved keeping a plane level.
The episode in which he finds his calling involves keeping a plane level.
Coincidence?
great observation
@Yann Verdier “The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!”, the second-to-last episode of season 1
Yeah :3
Also, I like how Della and Dewy mirror each other in this. Della has changed from a hyperactive kid to a responsible mother and Dewy similarly realizing his purpose and maturing from it.
They finally went to Cape Suzette like they were talking about in the very first episode.
yep
I would've guessed Shere Khan would've retired too. The only living VA for him would be from the live action Jungle Book remake since Tony Jay passed away
@@TKnHappyNess thats true but Idris Elba would be perfect
Town sure shrank sense last seen it. What happened? Was as big as the city from Darkwing Duck.
@@RedWolfWindgear good question
I like how they used a loose reference to “The Wuzzles”
The funny thing is they clearly had to use context clues. None of the two Wuzzles were given the correct name and left to assume that those who get the reference to fill in the blanks. It made me wonder if Disney wholly owned the license in the first place and had to share it with Hasbro, the toy company that made the toys. Especially since after the single season show, the toy line continued for a year or so. Not to mention the disconnect of the marketing between the Care Bears-esque toy line and the far zanier and goofier Disney cartoon series. Or maybe Disney just doesn't want anyone to remember it existed and they put the writers on a short leash and said writers had to twist their arms, like the Rescue Rangers cameo.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who got the connection!
Laughed at kit naming his bathroom "the woods". But I wanna know so much more about why the ducktales world is so segregated
I love how Della has progressed as a parent and how she has to keep reminding herself of what she needs to do to be a good mom.
This episide simultaneously made me jump for joy while my heart broke. The deeper they go into this universe they have created makes it more of a crime that it has to end so soon. The universe here is so expansive it could go on for a long time but its not being allowed to. It just sucks big time. I know its not the creators fault so I'm not mad at them but sheesh it makes me want to know how much money I'd have to make so I could self fund its continuation.
I know, but the problem comes that if it is stretched our si much it can turn into a Disaster. Like what happened to two certain shows in Nick that were more a zombie like thing being there to fill time and getting rating, and it turned out ti do the opposite.
Angones was aware that if they got green light for two more seasons, after the first finale's, then they wouldn't go beyond a fourth one in animation media. (Along with many other projects on the way).
I think there might he room for a movie itself.
@@StrikerRazor Don't get me wrong. I am not arguing for endless seasons of Ducktales. In fact I'd be A-OK with this series being over as long as it turned into spinoffs of the other shows in this universe. There could be 10 seasons of this universe (but not the same show) easy without running it into the ground. That's not what's happening at all here. What is happening is a ton of creative potential being chucked in the garbage by corporate.
As a fan I feel cheated and there's nothing I can do about it.
@@briandonegan8480 Technically they didn't cheat on any fans, they already told the fans from begininng DuckTales was running for a third season since season two premiere. So when they released the spot announcing that, it was obvious for them that was going to be the last.
And most of that expanded info has been released in comics actually.
Unfortunately, the corporative decisions are always to keep a channel's variety opened for new content.
As far as I know, fans are actually telling this concern to Angones to at least create DuckTales film as a last farewell for the fans. Apparently, he might take those comments and work in something due the fans reception.
@@StrikerRazor Corporate did not have to end this. All they had to do was transfer this over to Disney+ and keep going. But they won't crap or get off the pot. Linear channels are a dinosaur and the meteor has already hit but they refuse to let the needed ice age happen (Warnermedia and other compamies need to do the same as well). If you are going to run a streaming service it's time to end channel operations which cause shows to end way before their time, or allow others to go on way too long.
I pay Disney $$$ for shows like Ducktales to continue because it is the kind of content I want to consume. If I didn't have one and a half years left on the 3 years of Disney+ that I bought at launch I'd be canceling over this decision they have made.
Frank Argones and his team are responsible for the single best thing Disney has ever released in my lifetime. This expanded Disney Afternoon Universe deserves to be a content franchise and the plug is being yanked. I'm going to be displeased for a long time and Disney will have to do without my expendable income.
Addendum for those not aware. The story is going to continue at least for a few weeks. On March 29th Ducktales is getting an official continuation of sorts in the form of a Podcast series with the voice cast continuing their roles.
I'm just happy to see Kit and Molly all grown up. 🥲
This is the reason to have a new Ducktales show.
I really loved the bittersweet way they handled Kitt. Baloo was his father figure, if not outright adopted father, and thus a role model. He desperately wants to be Baloo, he tries to have his personality, but falls short and comes off sort of a sheepish version of that. He wanted to fly to be like his father figure and he wasn't good at it. Baloo also used the crowbar trick quite a number of times, so Kitt clearly learned it from him. And in a way, it was kind of depressing to see him not live up to his hero, yet trying to be a hero figure to Dewey the entire episode. The thing that really sold the episode for me is the ending. Molly, being her mother's daughter, buys the Sea Duck, but instead of spending a series kind of holding it over his head, she invites him to join her in her flying circus doing the thing he loves. And while not a long enough appearance, the difference is Rebecca Cunningham is actually quite similar to how Kitt is portrayed here (probably being the mother figure). She barely succeeds in all her business ventures and never quite has everything together, where as Molly looks very successful and has more confidence.
Also, Baloo's last name is given as VonBruenwald (sp?). If nothing proves that the showrunners and writers know their stuff, that's a DEEP DIVE! They only mentioned it in one episode where Baloo somehow gets an inheritance of a cursed castle (or mansion, I forget the exact details) and the two caretakers are constantly trying to kill him so everything will be left to them.
Excellent analysis of Kitt’s character and I 💯 percent agree with everything you said.
I'm glad they had a good balance and didn't make the character too sad or too much of a loser. They kept kid just sure of himself but with enough doubt, and the speech he gave about how he was expected to take on Baloo's role made without making it blatantly obvious sold the entire character arc. I'd also like to mention that his voice actor is Adam Palley, and it would have been a reunion between him and Ben Schwartz from the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, except their respective characters didn't actually share a scene or interact in anyway in that movie.
Perfecto analysis and I realized that myself, due to being in a similar situation myself due to the pandemic.
Actuslly they took on Kit was taken from the Stormy Weather episode, in which Rebecca mentioning that Kit could have a future beyond hauling cargo. Not to mention Kit in the episode showed he was more of an air stunt performer and being more natural for that.
I'd get the feeling there's a depressing angle that Baloo and Rebecca gave Kitt Higher for Hire because they were afraid that he wouldn't be able to find work as a pilot on his own. It's left up to interpretation if Rebecca and Baloo are just retired or dead.
@@mightyfilm I think its very likely that they are dead in that version...or even worse...married.
The point is...the Baloo I always imagined based on the show is very unlikely to retire because unlike kid..he just loves piloting...and I think you can fly as long as most of your senses work...so you can technically be a pilot until a very old age. -So there is no chance that Baloo left his beloved sea-goose (or whatever it is called in the original) especially if he can't be sure that it is handled by a ace pilot. So...why wouldn't he be at least kids Co-Pilot to make sure he and the plane don't get hurt? The only two reasons I can think of is that he is dead, or got lost somewhere, or he married (maybe Becky...maybe someone else) and is kept from still flying a plane.
Even if the finale is amazing, there's probably still going to be a ton of untapped story potential in this universe.
Yeah that is the problem when a show gets cancel and doesn't get a new season
They might revive the whole afternoon block after this.
@@vendettagrudge9501 Yeah, but that would be SMART...
@@darkalicornkingdoom3572 In this case it was officially ended rather than cancelled. When they gave news in Season's two premiere about having green light fir a third season, they told audience there was going to be three seasons from begininng.
The only thing I would want to see in a Ducktales season 4 is a Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers episode with Fat Cat
I used to watch Talespin as a toddler and hadnt thought about it or rewatched it in over 20 years. This episode was so damn cool and I dug Kit Cloudkicker & the aspect of an aviation focus that it got me to rewatch Talespin on Disney+. I am so amazed how much Talespin holds up as a series still. Its so imaginative and the air battles are damn good and the world of Talespin is so damn unique. Honestly, I would love another Talespin show with grown up Kit, Molly Cunningham, & Della and Launchpad as a crew of pilots.
Absolutely I really hope that they do a continuation series for Talespin soon
I love how this episodes figures out how 'Talespin' connects to 'DuckTales'. (Which is probably how I would imagine how the original 'DuckTales', and Talespin' would be connected.) Having Kit take over Baloo's position as a pilot in the 'DuckTales' timeline makes sense for both versions. I also love how they remained 'The Land Of Wuz', and it's ties to The Stone Of What Was. Also, Dewey's arc illustrates how he's wants to be at the goal, but soon realize he has to work hard to achieve that goal. (In other words, he has to go through a 'heroes' journey' in order to become 'special'. While' Kit's arc has alot in common with Dewey's arc, he realizes he's a better 'cloud kicker' than a pilot. overall, another great episode.
I hope Kit still remains a pilot tho personally.
@@anonymousgoblin792 Also, his voice reminds me of Chris Griffen. It's not Seth Green voicing Kit, but that's the vibe I got from his voice.
@@anonymousgoblin792 I mean if we get the 1/100 chance that TaleSpin gets a reboot that could be a season arc for Kit, putting in the work to being a better pilot
@@Launchpad05 Funny because I thought Seth Green voiced Kit in the original.
@@mitchfletcher2386 Actually, R.J. Williams voiced Kid in the original series.
The character growth in this episode was amazing! I also love that Molly grew up to become Danger Woman, and she bought the sea duck like her mom
Cool that Dewey wants to be a pilot like his mom and his best friend
I was just happy that Molly finally became DANGER WOMAN! I literally had tears in my eyes smiling! Also The Wuzzles Butter Bear made me so excited!
When Dewey saw the add for Higher for Hire and decided "cloud kicking" was the just thing for him, it reminded me of the character Mr. Toad from "the wind and Willows" who also thought he was amazing at stuff he never tried before as well usually resulting with him getting in trouble. I'm glad each of the bros have more of a clear goal/career path in life aside from adventuring.
I find it hilarious we finally found a worse pilot then Launchpad.
Adam Pally's preformance is amazing in this episode.
Also he voiced as Plop Plop from Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja
I love how Della finds cloudkicking ridiculous, yet is utterly mystified by Kit's gracefulness.
Though I love Dewey's maturity in this, I love his catchphrases and puns. They Dew something for me. Also, the kid was born for musical theater....so part pilot/part actor?
I gotta be honest, when I first saw this episode, I had very mixed feelings about it. It just felt very mean-spirited having Kit not be an ace like his Papa Bear. But as I rewatched it, I realized, the episode was actually quite brilliant. Kit's cloudkicking is completely unique to him, Baloo could never do it and if the likes of Dewey, Molly, Della or Launchpad tried it, it'd probably end in disaster. (Especially if Della tried it given her impatience and temper) But because it came so easily to him, he saw it as mundane and not something worth holding onto despite how much he loved it. This episode also shows that not only can you not literally become the person you idolize, sometimes it's a good idea to step back and see if your hero has flaws, lest you adopt those flaws yourself. Baloo was an incomparable pilot, but a terrible businessman, something that was reflected here in Kit. There's nothing wrong with admiring parental figures, but if you put them up on pedestals, trying to live up to the expectations you have for them is nigh impossible. It'd be like if Dewey continued to worship Della or if Webby continued to worship Scrooge; the former could end up losing a limb and the latter could end up with more archenemies than she could count. And like you said, thanks to Molly, Kit now has a chance to turn his life around, doing what he loves as himself, not as a second Baloo.
I have a friend that took a while to find the episode approach brilliant, due to be a so hardcore Kit fan blinding his judgement.
There's something I realized about this, and it was from where they took basis for this episode's plot for this approach to Kit. And that came from Stormy Weather's episode from the Original TaleSpin series, precisely from a line mentioned by Rebecca when Kit began to get si excited and practically worshipping Daring Dan.
@@StrikerRazor Baloo gets jealous.
Don Karnage should follow that advice, quit piracy, and become a family man.
@@altarush No way, that'd never interest him. Being a pirate is what he lives for...as well as being a bit of a showman.
@@mitchfletcher2386 You would think after that Wuzzle island disaster, he would. Someone should convince him otherwise.
The one complaint I have is, WHY WEREN'T THE SKY PIRATES SINGING?! IT'S THERE WHOLE THING! If they don't bring up what happened in the end in the finally it will be disappointing.
speaking of the future
is anyone hoping that della will stick around even after the show concludes
She's going to stay.
@@StrikerRazor yay
but how tho
Did anyone else find those pirate-animal hybrids kinda disturbing (especially the bird one)
Better to be the bird one than the one that's nothing but hands. Or snail guy!
@@seaniccus When will you review the latest ducktales episode, the life and crimes of scrooge mcduck.
Actually, yes, I did. The bird one and hands one especially.
Reminds me of those corrupted gems in Steven universes
Yes.
Very disturbing.
hands pirate being the most disturbing.
Also it's weird that they didn't mention that Kit used to be a Sky Pirate
In this case, they probably just focused on the story related to him being an orphan taken under Baloo's wing to make it look like this was a passing the torch/family business.
My guess for not exploring that part, could be due to the famous rumor about the fact that Kit having a criminal background wasn't of the parents like. So, due to those comments coming from them, Kit ended up being like the voice of reason for Baloo. I think those comments could have come precisely after Plunder and Lighting film was released.
I'm guessing they didn't want to explore the relationship between Kit and Don Karnage too closely. Aging Kit up while leaving the Sky Pirates relatively the same creates some odd questions about exactly how much of TaleSpin is canon to this world.
It's interesting that opposed to all the other references, This seems to be a direct sequel to Talespin. I love how they maintained Baloo's last name from Balooest of the Blue Bloods, Von Bruinwold. Interesting how Carnage seems to be the same age, but it may just be that Kit is in his 20s, Molly seems to be in her late teens. Unfortunately, there was no Scrooge, Kahn Rivalry. Kit also seems to mention how he wasn't used to doing tricks in a LARGE CARGOPLANE, as the last plane he flew before it was that kid sized Thembrian plane
I've heard theories that either it's an AU, or they're not the same Karnage. (Karnage has some inspiration from the Dread Pirate Roberts, so it could be a passed down title rather than an actual name)
I've pictured Dewey becoming a pilot since Della started teaching him to fly and I love that this episode makes that headcanon into actual canon
This show really needs a fourth season to get everything right
I always thought that louie would take over McDuck inc. with dewey going out adventuring and Huey doing research to support the others
I think that the last episode will make an time-skip where we see the triplets all grown up, as well as being quite successful themselves.
Like each taking a part of Scrooge’s path; Louie the clever but honest Business man, Dewey the Ace pilot and Huey the supernatural researcher?
@@dejaypage1575 ... YOU. READ. MY. MIND.
Perhaps as a epilogue story
It's been leaked that there will be 3 parts (each one an episode) on defeating HOWL, so I don't think they are gonna have time and show us the future but rather leave it to our imagination.
@@yesicalicht4882 *FOWL
So Dewy the pliot and Louie the CEO of Louie Inc, what about Huey? The head scout master?
I personally always saw Huey becoming a professor or a librarian. A keeper of history. Louie is the one that runs the business at home. Dewey is the one that goes out on the grand adventures. Huey is the one that does the research and then records it for all to know.
I still think Rebecca and Baloo are retired and hanging out at Louie's Place. Then when Kit told them that he's giving up piloting and joining Molly's circus, Rebecca cried tears of joy and paperwork to turn Hire For Hire into a joint venture with Louie.
Karnage’s pirates were clowns and animal performers in Molly’s circus and Karnage is the ringmaster.
Dewey has the blood of a pilot, and his best friend is a pilot! He's going to be a pilot!
love your passion for this show
I just loved the nod to the theme song too with Kit constantly saying "Spin it" when he did things, especially when it came to causing things to spin.
this episode went in a completely different direction than I was expecting but I loved every minute of it! with the way the episode opened, I was expecting huey and dewy to be fused by the stone so that dewy would learn not to take so many risks and huey to take more, maybe with kit learning maturity from della along the way. but this episode wasn't about that at all!
I loved how this episode handled its themes so much! I loved that it took the time to show dewy finding his niche and kit coming back to his and giving them a solid path for the future. I saw a post the other day quoting einstein about how everyone is a genius in different ways and asking what your genius was, and well I think that fits this episode perfectly. it's amazing to see a character find their genius after so long searching for it, and while it's not as showboaty as he wanted/expected, I feel it fits him perfectly. i can imagine him growing into the steadiest pilot out there easily.
Next episode: Louie puts of a green version of Phoenix Wright's suit and yells "OBJECTION!"
As for this, Molly has really grown up from things like hating her mom cause she was always busy and having her belief in Santa be destroyed. Plus, I guess without Rebecca and Balloo, Higher for Hire fell on some hard times.
the most surprising cameo of the entire series is the Wuzzles. NOTHING can beat that in surprise.
I actually didn't notice that Dewey switched to 'Let's Do This' near the end of the episode, thanks for pointing it out!
8:26 unfortunately, I think he's just as good a business man Baloo was.
Tiney bit of a spoiler of the next episode maybe Louie might be a lawyer
My thoughts exactly
Not quite. You'd have to check yourselves.
Personally I would prefer Kit to still be able to fly the Sea-Duck.
you're making them so fast. the episode isn't available in all countries yet!
I'm glad it looks fast to some people, at least! A week after it debuts in the US isn't as fast as I'd like haha, but it is what I have time for!
One thing urks me thou. I thought kit was already able to fly in the old tail spinn cartoon.
The part with the sky pirates turning into hybrids was legitimately disturbing.
Things I loved in this episode:
The concept of Kit being a terrible pilot but unable to admit it to himself was actually an on-going story thread in Talespin and caused him to get into all kinds of jackassery. So this episode actually delivers real character growth that Talespin never got a chance to.
Molly's stunt pilot name, Danger Woman, is a callback to her favorite radio show as a child. That made me smile.
The bathroom on the Sea Duck is labeled "The Woods". Just gonna leave that there.
Aging-up Kit and Molly helps reconcile the problem of Talespin being obviously set in the past of this shared universe. Sure, it wasn't the 1940s, but still. Also, having Kit and Della meet in flight school is a perfect way to tie both verses together.
The Stone of What WUZZ. The image on the stone is of Bumblelion, and we see Kong Skull Island versions Rhinokey and Butterbear. If they hadn't made the Rhinokey purple, I would've never gotten that.
I really want a Darkwing Duck spinoff when Ducktales ends
I wish they had more time to add Dinosaurs, Mighty Ducks, and SRMTHFG.
13:39 I took life lessons from Monsters University, so it's fine to take life lessons from Ducktales.
I was hoping we would have gotten to see bumblelion
We did actually. The stone.
man I never thought I'd see Dewey actually getting serious. But I just had a flash to the past seeing some familiar old characters
Balloos adopted son can’t fly for shit. But Dewey who just learned to fly is outstanding. Unreal
I was kind of on the fence with Kit's portrayal at first. But as the episode went along and after thinking about it for some time, I came to appreciate it more. What really sold me about this episode was Dewey's arc and how he understood the bigger picture, which also tied in pretty well with Kit's development. Plus, it's cool having Don Karnage return to finally have an on-screen encounter with Kit and the Sea Duck, seeing Molly practically become her idol from the original show and taking after her mom in some ways, and of course hearing the "Talespin" theme music.
Also, I love how the handled the Wuzzles by using that magic stone to combine different animals together. It's a really creative way to integrate it into a Ducktales and/or Talespin adventure. It makes me want to draw the other Wuzzles in this style.
I didn't put this in the video, but the Wuzzles thing kind of horrified me actually! Not the animals themselves but those poor transformed pirates never got put back to normal!
@@seaniccus I also felt bad for the pirates, especially the two that became a four-armed creature. I don't even think they mentioned if there was a way to change any transformed animal/person back to normal.
At least Don Karnage has a piece of the Stone of What Was for F.O.W.L. I hope we will see him again in the final episode.
Honestly, I was a little disappointed in how Kit turned out. I like that Della knew him already but not too crazy about him growing up to be a bit of a screw up. I feel like they could have made him everything we would have liked to have seen, make him a badass ace pilot, but give him moments of goofiness, and instead of Della and the boys just stumbling on him, just have Della already know him, make him an old friend, maybe someone she was a bit competitive with. He would still be in a position to inspire Dewy but the issue would be that Kit had to work hard to get to where he is, like he crashed a million times before he got it right.
Also Given that Kit and Molly have aged but Don Karnage seems actually younger than his original version, I have a theory that they are not the same character, but rather that the new series Don Karnage is the son of the original. It would explain a lot, not only his age but also how different he acts, almost like Karnage Jr originally wanted to be in musical theater but Karnage senior wanted him to follow in his footsteps as a pirate, so in the end he combined the two.
Disney is out to destroy their beloved IP.
I’m so early that there is only under a 300 views
Was not a fan of how Kit was portrayed in the reboot, especially seeing how his goal in the original series was to be an ace pilot like his mentor. Before meeting Baloo, Kit always dreamed of owning his own plane and flying. This one of the reason he enjoyed cloud kicking because he dreamed of flying someday.
Moreover, he seemed to be a shell of his former self we knew from the classic series. As a kid, Kit showed great navigational skills and knowledge of aviation. As Baloo's sidekick he more the level headed of the two.
I really didn't quite understand how he was downplayed in this reboot just to be outshined by Molly, especially since he was one of the most popular characters of the original series. They really didn;t do him any justice by retiring him to be circus performer, which is something Kit in the original series looked down upon doing after being forced to do dangerous stunts by a shady circus owner.
It was like the people who wrote this episode didn;t bother to watch the original series.
or, you know, different realities and timelines. Not everything has to line up and be exactly the same as the original. Otherwise DT17 itself wouldn't be the show it turned out to be.
They probably didn't care or either Disney made them make it this way
Okay, I was legitimately proud of Dewey by the end of this. I tend to see characters as my siblings, so I was having so much big-sis pride with that climax ☺️
I wonder what happened to Baloo. Is he dead?
I like to imagine he flew off to Condor Flats (the desert airfield when he lost his nerve for flying) and was never seen again.
He went to.....a better place
BORA BORA!!!!
Im sure he just retired to spend his days hanging at Louies Bar.
Shiirow
That is probably it. That is probably it. Considering Della is in her 30's and she went to flight school with Kit, this plays at least 20 years after the original Talespin.
Imagine if he shows up in the next episode as a rug.
I do got a feeling the Don we see in the show isn't the original, but his son. The original I don't recall cared for singing or being a showboat as this one is.
If I remember right, the TaleSpin references go back to the first episode when the nephews want to take Donald's house boat to Cape Suzette.
Tale Spin always felt like it took place in the 1930s, so wouldn't Kit and Molly be like in their 70s or 80s by the time this Ducktales reboot takes place?
10:20 Butterbear
I think there is a lot to unpack in this episode. But, Kit saw flying through the eyes of a child. When I was 12 I thought driving an 18 wheeler would be a fun exiting job. But, as an adult, with adult self reflection, I know I would probably be a terrible truck driver.
Awesome and i am so looking forward to the Finale on Monday 15 on my DVR, wow.
This episode’s message felt like a bit of an eye opener for me. I’ve always been good at drawing and enjoyed doing it, but I wasn’t able to get myself of the ground so I didn’t think I had much of a future in art. So I tried out other things but I wasn’t very good at them. I essentially became a lot like Kit. The episode helped me pick up drawing again and for that it became one of my favorites.
Loved this episode! Full blown adventure and it caught me off guard. I didn´t even thought I will see adult Kit and Molly, but without Balloo - which was a bit...shocking. This show didn´t deserved to be cancelled, it had A LOT of potential at least for another 5-6 seasons.

You're one of my pals, then. I practically understand the lessons, precisely becayse I'm going through a bumpy Road like Kit now that i'm trying to get papers to work outside my country to join animation lines. It hasnt been easy, though and has thought this ain't my thing although having passion for it, although it wasn't into this from begininng, just an enthusiastic guy that wanted to tell stories and do voice acting too.
The episode and a friend of mine helped me get over a depression I was feeling lately, and now getting back to right track.
Is curious whst i'm going to tell, but Den of Geek gave a one Star to the episode, because they thought Kit and Dewey's lesson was of being stuck to sole your skill and not broadening horizons.
I'm just mildly disappointed they didn't bring back the original Kit VA. I think it would've been neat to see the evolution of his voice so many years later.
RJ Williams doesn’t do voice work anymore. He works behind the scenes in the industry these days
@@Dhampir101980 I can still be disappointed by this fact!
I also noticed that Don Karnage is better at thinking practically then Black Heron, yes he will seize an opportunity to confront his enemies in an over the top manor but unlike Black Heron he doesn't jeopardize the mission to do so.
Take for example when he encountered Dewey and Kit on the Seaduck for the first time, yes he does dramatically announce himself like Black Heron did in The First Adventure but A. he sent his crew ahead to secure the statue and B. he has a dozen planes to get the stone off the island. He would have gotten the whole stone had it not cursed 2/3 of his crew.
I still think Dewey a natural comedian. He was in his natural element in Quack Pack and on Dewey Dewnight.
The musical callbacks in this episode were my absolute favorite the show has made! The triumphant “oh-we-at” played was 👌🏾
I wonder if Molly Cunningham bought Kit and Balo air plan and Hired Kit to be her Wingman because she helping him move on with his life because clearly there nothing left for him at the Harbor of their childhood home.
I hope by the end of the series we get a reference to Marsupilami
I LOVED How they brought in Kit Cloudkicker from TaleSpin to be a part of the Adventure along with Della Huey and Dewy and Dewy being Kit's kid sidekick throughout the adventure
yes!!! What Was it = Wuzzles. Course. the butterbear was the dead giveaway lol :D
I wonder what would happen if Kit met Launchpad?
They seem like the same person. The universe would explode
Launchpad is actually a good pilot but has a very short attention span. Kit is average, because he does not like flying that much.
I'm just glad that Dewey had finally let go of his ego in the end.
I have to say as someone who grew up on the original Disney afternoon lineup this episode felt EXTREMELY satisfying. I wasn’t the biggest Talespin fan but I did enjoy and remember the show. While it wasn’t episodic or have much in the way of serial archs, like most shows back then it never had a real series finale. Like ducktales , it just ended after a random episode. Kids show back then rarely left you with a sense of closure.
This episode works so well as an epilogue to talespin. Yes there are considerable differences (don karnage wrong age) but enough is there to feel right. And it’s so satisfying to feel closure for a series that essentially was left open for 20 years.
Also I really appreciate how the adult kit and molly feel like a mix of their childhood selves with a little bit of their respective parents (adoptive in baloo case). The writers definitely feel like fans or at least studied on the characterization of the original series
So what then became of Baloo? Did he retire or passed away of old age?
I wonder what happened to Babloo and Becky. Did they get married? Did Babloo ever make enough money to buy back the sea duck from her, but simply decided to give it to Kit instead?
We will never get to know because that answer like so many others are being stolen from us by corporate
Why is Don Karnage still so young and what happened to his other pirates?
I'm still on beaks in the shell. Do they say what happened to baloo?
Baloo works as a flight instructor now, or he retired on Louie's island... or works as a flight instructor on Louie's island.
we all, especially young adults, need that lesson, like the others the show tried to teach us
Butterfly bear beast? Surely you mean Butterbear. :D
hyped for the final episode. Just saw trailer.
I hope next is either a brand new reboot of an old classic in canon to this Duck Tales or a look back on an other cartoon from the 80s that you cn look at like you did Real Ghostbusters.
But what about Huey and Louie. The former still need to accept that life is not a Junior Woodchuck guidebook, his family is the one thing that truly matters, nobody is truly perfect, there will always be unpredictable bumps in his life, and that global domination is not the right way to bring order, as there will always be chaos, past, present, and future. Louie still needs to learn to care about people, stop scamming and embrace his family too. I'm glad Mama Cabrera shut his fake charity down. It was an unbelievably despicable tactic of his.
My biggest problem was a bit of unintentional aesop of "stop trying to do what you are passionate about, cause you will suck at it". Also, that Kit ended being "terrible", not average, "terrible" pilot and felt he needed to "meet expectations", which was more about who Dewey was than Kit. You could still worked into Dewey's lesson if you focused on Kit trying to maintain Higher for Hire, his original home with no one left but him. You know, and get the "dont try to make out if yourself what you aren't" aesop, which is Dewey's whole arc.
Oh yeah it's more of that whole concept of "expectations are teh evul" that's infested our society lately
@@steakdriven well, that IS a common problem from the "American Dream" style childhood people in North America have been getting where everything that should've been good yet somehow wasn't.
I don't mind it as a concept, but I'd rather have my version instead.
The lesson is cultivate what you’re good at, which is sound advice. You can always goof off or do things you enjoy but often what you’re passionate about isn’t everything.
@@FreyaEinde Except:
1. "what you're good at" and "what you are passionate" aren't necessarily separate things. If you can't even do the basics (like flying a plane without a help of a crowbar), can you really say you were "passionate" in the first place? People are always choosing between the two, and if you take your passion seriously, then no, they will NOT "goof off".
2. That point becomes moot when the episode treats Kit's interest of flying as something tacked on to him due to expectations, and never something he inherently was interested at. I would agree with your assessment with maybe making a lesson about "try focusing on what you are good at, not just what you are passionate about", but the writers didn't. All they did was have him say "They wanted me to be a pilot, and I really suck at it", which shouldn't have been a thing because Kit WAS passionate about flying.
I just am so upset that they did my favorite show growing up so damn dirty, I just really hope that they do a true blue continuation series for Talespin and do this great show some justice because what they did here was down right criminal 😢 #dotherightthingdisney
TLDR: I think they mishandled Kit and missed out on a more interesting and unique story and lesson.
I have issues with Kit being a bad pilot, when in just the Tailspin pilot 4-parter he is shown to geek out over planes and have as much natural affinity for flight as Dewey has. Baloo points out hoe impressed he is with Kit's ability to keep steady in his first try. Also, kid Kit was demonstrated to have more business sense the Baloo or adult Kit. Lastly, how did it happen that Rebecca ended up passing Higher for Higher to Kit rather than Molly anyway, especially if Molly grew into an Ace while at the same time Kit lost competency at everything bit cloudkicking. I think they wanted to have q direct parallel with Dewey trying and failing at cloudkicking, but to do so they had to make some sort of weird mish-mash of Baloo, Kit, and someone who can't fly well.
I think a much more interesting plot was wasted. They could have instead had kit be a good pilot, but find it unfulfilling. Make it about facing the fact that sometimes achieving one's dreams doesn't make you happy itself. Make it where Dewey instead has to convince Kit to go back to cloudkicking, which Kit had given up due to it being perceived as childish (if not effeminate) by his classmates at flight school. That would work well given that Dewey has a thing for dancing and the episode already had that line about Kid Cloudprancer. The idea that you HAVE to pursue something just because you are gifted in it, even if you don't like it, isn't the best when it isn't qualified.
I agree with your main points here about them mishandling Kit. I think the message is blurry, too.
My issue with the message is, for me, it felt like Kit was saying that he gave up something he loved (cloud-kicking) to be something he thought he loved and wanted to be (piloting). But piloting is a career, and cloud-kicking might as well be something like skateboarding; aka, a hobby. It seems to me that him having a sidekick would have solved his issue of wanting to be able to cloud-kick more while also carrying on Baloo's legacy as an ace pilot.
I get that they wanted to convey this message of "Stick to what you love and not what you think you have to be" but Kit's character in the original Talespin LOVED piloting and seeing Baloo in action. So, to completely do a 180 on his original character and ignore his clear love and passion for piloting for, what I felt, was a forced moral message is just odd. The message is good but it's conveyed through the wrong character in my opinion.
@@dragomango992 not only that but of all people Baloo didnt teach kit how to fly or how to upkeep the sea duck ? Baloo is the best pilot we have seen in the universe and that includes della ( he also was the one who would continously rebuild the sea duck along with wildcat) so for kit to know nothing about planes is poorly written
Zack Snyder’s “The Wuzzles”!
I like this episode and kit look like baloo.😀👍🐻
I liked the overall episode and especially what it did for Dewey, but I'll admit I was underwhelmed by Kit's characterization. So far DuckTales has done a great job of reimagining all the old characters but keeping the core of who that character was. It didn't seem like that held true for Kit. He felt more like Launchpad crossed with Baloo rather than Kit being grown up. I also think the message would have sold better if they hadn't made him a bad pilot. Kit was a decent pilot and exceptional navigator, as well as being the responsible and hardworking balance to Baloo's "bare necessities" laid back attitude. This version of Kit didn't feel like there was much of the original Kit still left intact, and that disappointed me a bit since I love Kit in the original.
This felt like a rare miss for me with the rebooted Ducktales, primarily because of Kit's characterization. It honestly felt more like they wanted Baloo, but were unable to utilize him for this series for some reason, so they stamped his character on Kit, but without his ability to fly. It also feels like an unintentional backhand against those of us who used Kit as the audience stand-in he was designed to be. Now grown up, we get to see a Kit who is a failure unable to live up to his hero and mentor, with the lesson more or less being 'don't try to.' This series is a wonderful way to introduce a new generation to the cartoons that meant so much to their parents, but that kind of hurt in a way.
this epsiode did not make sense because if kite and Molly are adults how old are Baloo and Rebbecca and why doesn't Done Karnage look old or retired and if they had Kite and Molly as adults and Baloo and Rebbecca are nowhere to be found that means they won't be making a Reboot to TailSpin as they did with Ducktails which I find very very very very sad.
Does anyone else wonder about the calendar on the door to the cabin on the Sea Duck? It has May(be) 8th circled in red with the message "Take off!". It's also not 2021, but it does match up with 2023.
Oh man I haven't thought about "The Wuzzles" in years. I didn't even think about the connection in this episode until it was mentioned in this review. I really love this show, hate that it's ending, and really hope everyone who works on it can move on to something great. Like maybe that Darkwing reboot all the fans have been foaming about.
Anyone else notice the error they made in the Higher For Hire video? Baloo wasn't the one who started it, Rebecca Cunningham did
To be perfectly technical Baloo's business came first Rebecca Cunningham bought it out and changed the name. Thanks for reminding me but there's another reason to hate this episode. How the hell are there still payments on the sea duck after all these years?
