Darkwing Duck coming back to TV
http://io9.gizmodo.com/after-25-year...uck-1754229903
loved this show as a kid. i will probably watch.
Darkwing Duck, which aired its last new episode in 1992, will return to TV in 2018. Plenty of time to get dangerous.
The new version of the show will air on Disney XD, which promises both the “same energy and bumbling crime-fighting spirit” and a new “gritty look that this generation of kids love.” The gritty look is an interesting comment, since, if anything, Disney XD has been much lighter and softer in its programming than Disney animation of years past. Just three years ago, the channel replaced the excellent Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes with the much gentler Avengers Assemble.
If they’re really looking to make sure that Darkwing Duck has a dark tone, that could be great. Of course, we’re going to have to wait two years to find out. Which is plenty of time for us to get dangerous.

I'm excited to hear this!
Now, I'm just hoping that they release the rest of the episodes on DVD...

Well, hopefully Disney sees the reaction this got online and tries to revive the character.

Ducktales: Let's Get Dangerous (Darkwing Duck stealth pilot?)
The hour long Ducktales Darkwing Duck episode, "Let's Get Dangerous" is currently streaming on Youtube's Disney XD channel. If you want to see it, now's your chance, no telling how long it'll be up. The episode itself is pretty much everything everyone hoped for.

So a spin off of the new Duck Tales (just like the last one was)?

Re: Darkwing Duck coming back to TV
I mean they basically had an hour long Darkwing episode on DT a few weeks ago. It would be weird if they went in another direction and not use that to spin off of.
