Blake et Mortimer

I've watched this entire series, in English, on Canadian television and read the French comic books on which the shows are based. While the series doesn't boast the complex story lines and fantastic animation of the original books, they get the tone right and are fun to watch. Entire subplots have been thrown out to fit the shorter format, and Jacobs' incredibly dense dialogue has been thinned out, but not in an insulting or disrespectful way. One strange thing: many of the British and French characters have Canadian and American accents in the English language version, perhaps because the government of Quebec assisted with the production.
