Danger Mouse

To improve on the original seemed impossible but they did it.

If they don't make more episodes, it would be madness.

Chances are nobody was really ready to put of the bunting when it was announced that 80s children's favourite Danger Mouse was being revived. After all said plenty online why not just show the David Jason era episodes again, its not as if they've dated in any meaningful way - the new series essentially proves that to be true as they have changed very little in terms of tone and style. Sure the visuals are slicker but they are very much patterned after the original look and feel while the script and voice characterisation could almost be lifted straight. The casting is pretty much perfect Alexander Armstrong as DM knows when to raise a vocal eyebrow and Kevin Eldon is perfect as Penfold, capturing the essential traits of the little guy who'd love to be big if only he was brave enough (and actually he's happy enough leaving the derring-do stuff to Danger Mouse). The stories are as daft as a brush and all the better for it - its hard not be smile when the villain in an episode is a toilet which has gone through an unintended forced software upgrade. The gags come quick and often and many of the quips will surely zoom right over the heads of the supposed core audience. As such Danger Mouse is arguably wasted on CBBC and instead would make a nice piece of tie-in programming with Pointless on BBC One - after all they have the same lead in both!

I recently finished watching "Danger Mouse," the 2015 reboot, and I have to say, it's a fantastic show! I'd give it a solid 10 out of 10. The humor is spot-on, with clever jokes that appeal to both kids and adults. The animation is bright and fun, which makes every episode a delight to watch.

What I really love about this show is its creativity. Each episode is packed with exciting adventures and quirky characters. Danger Mouse himself is such an enjoyable character - he's brave, witty, and not afraid to poke fun at himself. The dynamic with his sidekick, Penfold, adds a lot of charm, as their friendship feels genuine and entertaining.

The storylines are engaging, and there's a great balance between action and comedy. Plus, the clever references and nods to classic spy movies keep things fresh. It's the type of show that makes you laugh out loud and always leaves you wanting more at the end of each episode.

Overall, "Danger Mouse" has been a hit for me. It's a perfect blend of fun, excitement, and laughter that both kids and adults can enjoy together. If you're looking for a light-hearted show that doesn't take itself too seriously, this one is definitely worth watching!

I loved the original danger mouse from the 80s and the new Danger Mouse isn't rubbish but isn't great either.

The World's Greatest Secret Agent is back, baby. Out of all the reboots I've seen, this one has to be the best. I started watching the original show last week (watched all 11 episodes of the first season), and then I watched the reboot one day later, and I have to say, this reboot was better than I was expecting. What I like about this show is that they did a version of the original theme song and the humor in this show makes it a love letter to fans of the original (though that's not necessarily true for some, I've seen negative reviews as well). If you like the original show, chances are, you'll like the reboot. The Powerpuff Girls can learn a thing or two from Danger Mouse. The only thing I hate about this reboot is that it didn't make it in America, so they put it on Netflix instead (I hate when Netflix acquires shows and claims them as their own). It could've been on Nickelodeon or on Disney XD, but NO! They had to put it on NETFLIX. Ugh, I'm getting off- topic here. Like I said, this show is just as good as the original, but I'm sick of seeing reboots.
