Disney’s TaleSpin Volume 1 (1990)
25 April 2007One of the classic cartoons I grew up on, this one filled with high adventure and excitement. This is just a great show and it still holds up. And this DVD is higher quality than the gummy bears discs, even though each episode is still a single chapter on this 3 disc set.
I have no idea who came up with this crazy concept, but it really works. They took characters from Disney’s Jungle Book, specifically Baloo (Ed Gilbert) who becomes a 1903’s Pacific Island Bush Pilot with his sea plane the Sea Duck, as well as Louis who owns the local watering whole, and the evil company owner Shere Khan (Tony Jay), and adding in a slew of new characters. We have Rebecca ‘Becky” Cunningham (Sally Struthers) who because Baloo was so lazy has bought his plane and business and made a cargo business, her cute daughter Molly (Janna Michaels), the wacked out mechanic Wildcat (Pat Fraley), the kid who becomes Baloo’s navigator Kit Cloudkicker (R.J. Williams), and the air pirate he once worked for Don Carnage.
This show is just plain fun. I love the plain stuff, and Baloo always scheming to buy back his plane, but never quite succeeding,with Becky coming up with crazy schemes that never work.
This is a great show!!
