Have DuckTales gone quack?

If you're even remotely like me, you have fond memories of DuckTales, Disney's classic cartoon about the adventures of Scrooge McDuck, his great nephews Huey, Louie and Dewey and their incompetent pilot Launchpad.

The stories were well written, intelligent, complex and very educational. The characters were believable, relatable and endearing and everything had a place and eventually a payoff.

The original series mainly focused around Scrooge himself, often aided by his nephews out of a jam by the use of a Boy Scout like guidebook (The Junior Woodchuck's Guide).

For those of you who looked forward to DuckTales' return, I have bad news.

The new series is so badly co-opted by the SJWs that all the male characters are completely idiotic, moronic and useless. The triplets are constantly on each other's throats, constantly being saved by Webby. In the original series, Webby was a gentle, girly girl, wearing dresses and generally being a princess. The new Webby is far from that. Not only is she so tomboyish that she is more of a boy than any of the boys, but she has more in common with Mable Pines than she does with original series counterpart. Armed with a grappling hook gun, she is constantly solving all the problems the boys get into and always saving the day.

Donald Duck, who had occasional cameos in the original series due to his joining the navy, also appears in the reboot show, but he is even more incompetent than ever before. The original series established that he had a tendency to screw things up, but mostly as a result of bad luck or others' interference. No such luck here, he is a bumbling baboon through and through and is regularly bested by Mrs. Beakley, who is no longer a sweet grandma-type old lady, but is a macho badass super-nanny. She completely replaces Duckworth in the 2017 series and acts more like a war-seasoned general than Webby's grandmother.

Scrooge himself is hardly ever present, aside from a few little intro pieces here and there and generally adds nothing to the plot. The cartoon's highly stylized art style is also as far from Disney as can be and is more akin to the style of Bratz dolls.

The series' only redeeming quality is David Tennant (Tenth Doctor - Doctor Who) who voices Scrooge himself, but as the character is seldom even used, Tennant's talents are wasted on the show.
