The Later DuckTales

[Matthew Williams]

I don't know if I would describe the animation in the later episodes as
worse as much as I would different.  I definitely think the earlier episodes
are superior by and far.  "The Bride Wore Stripes" is, in my opinion, the
poorest episode out of all of them.  The injustice and ludicrousness of the
plot is just too much for me!  I really don't care much for 'Beaglemania"
either.  Most of those late episodes do lack heart.  I like "The Golden
Goose" too.  I find the character of Dijon really appealing!  The metal
mites episode is mostly a good one, I think.  There is this one really cheap
animation moment in it though where Dijon doesn't move for what seems like
forever.  I like the Time Is Money" five-parter, but the character of Bubba
is sort of...well, dumb.  I like Fenton Crackshell, but the whole Gizmo Duck
thing doesn't appeal much to me.  "The Duck Who Knew Too Much" is one of my
favorites!  Definitely the last thirty-five episodes get further and further
from Barks and the charm of the first season.  I don't think the people
behind the later episodes really understood what made the show good in the
first season.

More Donald and Helper would have been good!
