Sell Gadget back to Shout! Factory, Fox Shout! Factory's DVD producer Brain Ward trusted Fox to release the remaining episodes of Inspector Gadget on DVD, but fans never saw that happening. Fox has betrayed Brain Ward's trust and released their own cartoons instead. Fox should sell the original Inspector Gadget back to Shout! Factory, because it is not willing to release more volumes on DVD. Please sell the show back to Shout!, Fox!
Old School Fun Memories Not the greatest cartoon ever, but loads of fun to watch again as an adult since I had loved it so much as a kid.
My kids love this I was thinking back to favourite shows when I was a kid and I remembered loving Inspector Gadget so I decided to buy it for my own kids. Watching it a couple of decades latter I can't say that I like Inspector Gadget as much as I did as a child; but my kids love it and that alone made it worth getting. It was also great fun to watch shows that I haven't seen in two decades and see how much I remembered from the episodes.
Inspector Gadget is my favourite cartoon. This package has 4 DVDs, and it contains the first 22 episodes of the first season of the original inspector gadget cartoon series. I am hoping FOX will release the rest of the first season of inspector gadget. Don't pass up the chance to buy these cartoons. I personally like these inspector gadget cartoons better than spunge bob, the simpsons, and the family guy (popular current cartoons).
I personally only like the first season of inspector gadget(has 65 episodes total). The second season was written by a different writer, and has addad characters and the writers did not entirely fallow "the formula". (for info on the formula see the web page I have written at the end of this review)
3 episodes on this disc of 22 episodes are not good at all. The episodes, 1of3: the invasion, 2of3: Mad Trap, 3of3: Basic Training, are all episodes where Dr Claws voice is not played by the usual person and it is not nearly as good as the usual persons deep voice who does Dr Claw. In these 3 episodes the plot is not nearly as good as the other episodes either.

Hate the mustache!!!! Love the lip. It's a great cartoon. The only thing of note that I have to say is that the first couple of episodes Inspector Gadget is sporting a thick, black mustache. My kids couldn't understand why he had it when the picture on the box showed him without it.They didn't like it. Neither did I. It made him look like an imposter. Finally, in later episodes he was clean shaven.
