Watch The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle Trailer
This looks distinctly different from the classic adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle, both in animation style and in the kind of stories being told with the characters. Sure, Boris and Natasha are still involved as the villains of the series, but this series looks far more action-packed and wild than the original show. Of course, cartoons were much different in the early 1960s when the original Rocky and Bullwinkle series was popular, and kids need a little more stimulation to keep their attention nowadays.
The world’s best-known flying squirrel and talking moose are back in a serialized comedy about the two goofball best friends who routinely find themselves thrust into harrowing situations but end up saving the day time and again. As Rocky (Tara Strong) and Bullwinkle’s (Brad Norman) innocent and silly ambitions to become rock stars or find lost treasure end up dovetailing with Fearless Leader’s (Piotr Michael) sinister plans to take over the world, our heroes are set on a collision course with his notorious superspies Boris Badenov (Ben Diskin) and Natasha Fatale (Rachel Butera). Daran Norris narrates the series executive produced by Scott Fellows and Tiffany Ward, daughter of the original series producer Jay Ward.
Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny
It doesn’t sound like Jack Black will be back for this series, but that’s not surprising since he also didn’t reprise the role in the Nickelodeon animated series Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness. We actually don’t know who any of the voice talents in the series will be, but we’ll find out when we get closer to the series debut sometime later this year.
