Star Trek: TNG -- The Animated Series

Yes.
But.
We were talking specifically about a post-Nemesis The Next Generation animated series.
I don't see that on Paramount+.
I guess they could still do one now.
I'm just thinking of why they wouldn't have done one then.

 

Incredible!

 

This. Makes. Me. Happy.

 

I can't wait for the follow up with all the 1970's animation cross-overs

TNG and Fat Albert

TNG and Scooby Doo

TNG with the harlem globetrotters

TNG and The New Adventures of Batman

 

TNG and the Osmonds cartoon series.
TNG and the Brady Kids
TNG and the Archies
TNG meets "Larverne and Shirley join the Army"(yeah that was a real cartoon. I watched a lot of obscure weird stuff during the lockdowns)

And of course Spot has to be turned into a funny cartoon animal who get into wacky hijinks every episode. And Wesley gets a pet space bear.

 

There was also Mork and Mindy: The Animated Series (a.k.a. What the Hell Was ABC's Programming Department Smoking Back Then?)

 

Don't forget Fonzie and the Happy Days Gang themselves...We just needed a Joanie Loves Chachie cartoon and we'd have an animated version of all four shows.

 

Ugh ... Don't remind me.

 

Love it

 

Absolutely loved it.... and I saw an interview with the creator, one mention he had was how the original musical score in TNG made a huge difference on the mood it created, versus his dubbing over with the TAS scores....

But man - what a great piece of work...

 

Some things just…fit.

“Masks” would not have worked here.

Now, I think you could combine the dialog of TNG’s “Yesterday’s Enterprise” and “Unification” and the movie “Generations” …splice it with excerpts from TAS’ “Yesteryear,” “The Time Trap,” and “Counterclock Incident”—-not to mention The Voyage Home and its time travel elements--and you could have Kirk and Picard meet….maybe with an unknown filling in some dialog as a go-between to link different phrases….maybe Tom Baker?

Honestly a lot of First Season episodes would have worked too. Skin of Evil, Haven (we can't afford a new background painting for the planet so we never go there), Justice, Code of Honour (with the aliens changed to reptilians like they were originally supposed to be, though even then it would still be a toxic episode), The Last Outpost, Where No One Has Gone Before...

 

This makes me want to rewatch some of TNG season 1.

 

I remember that one when it was a regular thing. They also had a talking pig as a sidekick.

Was that the one where they kept traveling in time with a girl named Cupcake?

Also remember Jonny Quest, Mighty Man and Yukk, the Smurfs (listen to that song long enough, you start rooting for Gargamel), the Schmoo, and assorted Scooby Doo iterations.

 

I think it would be cool but a herculean task to animate or condense all of seven seasons of TNG into half hour animated episodes

Imagine Best of Both Worlds condensed into an hour/ two episode/30 minute format?

 

The shifty look Picard gives when Worf shoots the first drone...

 

Ron Palilo (Welcome Back Kotter) was the voice of Squealy the Pig/the Drill Sergeant (Great casting. The man's voice was MADE for cartoons!)

Palilo is sitting behind a young John Travolta:

That was the Happy Days/Fonzie cartoon. Squealy was in the Laverne and Shirley cartoon

This was ABC's cross-promotion scheme. Almost everyone on those shows appeared on ABC's prime time lineup at some point (Benson's Didi Conn was the voice of Cupcake).

NBC would do something similar a few years later with an animated Punky Brewster and The Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley (Based upon Martin Short's SNL character. Martin voiced the character in the series.)

The Glory Days of Saturday morning cartoons.

 

$3.00 for the entire Season 1 on DVD at my new & used store!!! Winner winner chicken dinner.

 

That's great.
