This looks really great. All the characters look identical to their originals only crisper and brighter with modern animation. I'm not a fan of computermation, or flash style animation, but I'm interested in seeing this.

The 80's and the 90's were beneficiaries of the Canadian content laws and the Government of Canada, without which "The Raccoons" would never have made it past the drawing board stage. 

Great to know that Kevin Gillis is still in charge of the production and direction of the new series.

I've seen episodes of the original show on YouTube, but not on TV in the United States.

This is how you do a reboot. Keep it as close to the original as possible, while taking advantage of new technology in animation. This should be the template for all future reboots of anything ever.

It looks more like it's done in Harmony, actually. It's better than Flash, and is very capable of doing a lot, but it still has a lot of the same features keyframe and tweening features that Flash is known for.

@Vapor:

So true. If we gotta have reboots, at least do them in this animation style.

I've never even heard of this show before, but it looks fun and inoffensive enough. When you get older it's a shock to find out how obnoxious and irritating some kid's shows are...or maybe it's just me.

The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

I LOVED this show. I live in the US and couldn't tell you what channel I watched it on, but I was one of the few people i knewback in the 80's that was lucky enough to have a satellite dish. It was one of those gigantic ones that would have to be installed in the backyard. I couldn't even tell you what the service that came with it was, but it was huge and you could hear it and see it move when channels were changed. We had Disney and Nickelodeon and all kinds of channels. Cable didn't come in where we lived. I know I also had a VHS tape of the show because I remember there were commercials for the cartoon series Seabert (Seabeart the seal is on his way. Sebeart the seal is here to stay) on there. Seabert may have also been shown on that channel but i'm not sure.
