- "'The Get Along Gang' - NOT the Saturday Morning TV series but the original 1984 TV special...the one with the scavenger hunt, the car race, and songs performed by John Sebastian (who performed the song 'Welcome Back' from the 1970's TV series 'Welcome Back, Kotter').
I love this pilot version of the Get Along Gang wish the rest of the episodes would be like this, or bring it back.
Me 2 personally, Mountain Spring.
This episode brings out the best of the Get Along Gang, this show deserves a comeback!
they tried to in the early 2000s, but it was more of a sequel series that featured descendants of the original gang. It had a crime fighting/mystery solving focus, but the test pilot was not good at all. It's on RUclips.
I'd agree with you that 1 way or another, Red Dungeoneer.
@@bjnboy can you link that?
It will not survive. Nowadays, sharing, caring, getting along, that shit does not exist in the current world we live in.
@@mikebison9838 unfortunately true😔 the successful modern shows are focused on action and adult shows are heavily based on true crime.
80'S cartoons are some of the best cartoons ever.
Olá vc sabi falar português porque queria fazer umas perguntas sobre o cartoons
Podia me responder☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️🛩️🛫🛬✈️
Me, a 2000’s kid: are you approaching me?
Me, a person who grew up on 80s and 90s cartoons, yet born in 2003: Uh.....................
The best intros & cartoons
From Garfield's Fun Fest
One of my favorite shows as a child⭐️⭐️ It always had a great message ❤️❤️
Oh wow, you can really tell this is Nelvana animation when Montgomery is moving his head around and talking at 1:30. The way his mouth is underneath the muzzle, and all the distinctive mouth-shapes- that's so Nelvana! Like a fingerprint. I LOVED this show back in the day- it was my first realization that shows would also be cancelled- I asked my parents why I never saw it anymore and they confessed it had probably been taken off the air, lol.
I loved this cartoon when I was a kid I was truly blessed every Saturday morning.
This pre-series special has more frames of animation than the entire series does, lol.
Possibly because as a TV special, it got more of a budget (as well as not being handled by DiC, who did the series and is infamous for doing cartoons on the cheap end).
Back when cartoons were awesome. I miss my childhood 😢
Me too.
Same Saturday morning cartoons are no more
I'm really happy I learned English to have the opportunity to watch this masterpiece. I feel sorry this movie was not translated to our children and even shown in my country
I had a crush on Dotty Dog when I was a little kid. At the age of 6 I thought there was nothing wrong with liking a talking female dog.
Dude, me too. I was 8 but thought she was cute.
1119nj me too when I was like 7 8 years old
Meh, Felt the same about Gadget from Rescue Rangers around age 7/8, only she's a damn mouse :)
Yeah me too especially in the intro
Listen, it's 2017. If it's fully sentient and capable of telling you it is or isn't into you, it's a valid crush target. If people can write 100k-word slashfic about the xenomorphs from Alien, you can have a crush on Dotty.
I mean, she's not my kind of gal -- sapient or not, can you imagine the dogbreath? -- but she was hella cute. I'm pushing 40 and I still grin at that cheerleader routine in the closing credits every time I see it.
I never saw this show all the way thru, just a few clips here and there on RUclips, but this one has a cute, cute, CUTE intro!!! I love John Sebastian, and he had a great theme song here. Plus the scenes of the characters skating, riding bikes, etc. are sooooo cute! *squeeing like a little kid, lol*
I feel like im the only 90s baby that watched this i was born 93 and my mom got me this video tape to watched and i loved it. For years ive been asking people my age group if they remember this and none do, i finally realised its because it was an early 80s cartoon 😂. Im just happy i grew up with this small bit of 80s.
Sounds like you were stuck with the leftovers of my generation!
The animation and character designs are MILES better than the DiC version. Just amazing.
EVERYTHING was better here than the DIC series.
Bingo: "You'll never get that to work!!"
Dotty: "Wanna bet?!"
OHHHHHHH GOT EM😂🔥🔥🔥!!!
BINGO GOT ROASTED!!!
When Saturday Mornings were amazing!
Eh, this isn't related to the Saturday morning cartoon. This was a special made for Nickelodeon and was created by a totally different company. TBH, I think Nelvana would have done a better job. DiC put out some quality cartoons during this time period, but the Get Along Gang series wasn't one of them IMHO.
In 2008
Too right, even in the UK they had great shows for everyone, I just wish more shows were on dvd already, there are many that haven't done so here in Britain!
I gotta admit, I think the gang's appearance and voices are better here than in the DIC series (except Portia, in my opinion, she definitely looked and sounded cuter in the tv series). Also, somehow Dotty seem more cheery and likable here than in the tv series.
It's also kinda a shame the DIC tv series only focused on the main six gang members (Montgomery, Dotty, Zipper, Bingo, and Portia) while the other six only made cameo background appearances (except Braker who made occasional guest appearances). I have no idea why. You know, that's kinda the opposite of what they did for the Care Bears series back then.
Dotty was definitely done right in this Nelvana pilot. She matches the characterization she had in the original books, which was being a sort of big sister figure to most of the rest of the gang.(similar to Montgomery's "big brother" role.) Dotty's father was a master mechanic, and taught her quite a bit about machinery and tools. This is also properly portrayed in the Nelvana pilot. The Dic Dotty was no where near as pleasant, in fact she could be a real brat at times. She easily gets offended, and or jealous. She's also prone to fits of anger and even occasional physical violence towards the other GAG members(particularly Zipper and Bingo) which is as out of character as Dotty can get. And for some reason, Dic decided to take her talent of tinkering with machines and give it to Montgomery instead.(that also never felt right.) I'm up in the air about which version of Portia I like more. She's cute in both versions to me. I do enjoy her one of a kind voice in the Nelvana version, but she's great in the Dic one as well. She stayed the most in character out of the main six in the Dic series. As for the other six members being almost entirely ignored by Dic? Well that was a massive cavalcade of missed opportunities now wasn't it? Having an extra six characters to write stories for and experiment with would've given the Dic series more life and variety. But alas, strict status quo won out.
The toy lines for the Get Along Gang concentrated on the main 6 characters. DIC's cartoon episodes were 12 minutes long enough to feature the main 6 plus Braker Turtle in a few stories. If new episodes were made for a second season or expanding to weekday episodes where DIC was more than capable of producing, the other 6 (Braker, Flora, Bernice, Lolly, Rudyard, and Rocco) could have appeared more often with dialogue.. but it sadly did not happen.
Zipper's design especially looks better. In the show he looks like a husky and not a cat :P
Officer Growler and Catchum Crocodile also look a lot better.
Tohit: I completely agree with you about Portia.
I would add that Leland's gargle voice was kinda annoying in this.
I had a GAG backpack for kindergarten in 1984!/85 and Loved it
Now that brings back some old memories, my mom had this on VHS and I think I watched it at least 50 times LOL I always remember how John Sebastian's name was prominently featured and even my mom remarked "Wow John Sebastian wrote the music!!" and I was just 8 yrs old thinking "Who's that guy?" LOL now I know who he is
This was an admirable effort. I didn't know that there was a different version. Thanks.
Bernice Bear - A very sensible girl who likes keeping things neat and tidy. She enjoys baton twirling and is also proficient in cooking and sewing. She wears a pink sweater over a white blouse, blue shorts and brown loafers.
For those wondering why Nelvana Studios didn't animate the Get Along Gang tv series: Nelvana did not have the staff or the budget to animate a full episode run of tv animation series at the time the Get Along Gang pilot was in production sometime in 1983. The studio had produced animated various half hour tv specials in the late 1970s and the full length Rock and Rule film that had a limited theatrical release in 1982. Rock and Rule was a big financial disaster ($8 Million in production costs and hundreds of animation staff members were employed) and it almost closed down the Nelvana Studios for good. Nelvana co-produced the Inspector Gadget tv series with DIC Productions in 1983 to bounce back from the Rock and Rule financial debacle...animation work was farmed out to other animation studios in other countries including Cuckoo's Nest in Taiwan. Nelvana worked on some episodes but not the entire 86 Gadget half hour total episodes for weekday broadcast. Nelvana also produced some live action programs such as "20 Minute Workout", "The Edison Twins", and "Mr. Microchip" and animated this Get Along Gang special, the Special Magic of Herself the Elf, and several Strawberry Shortcake specials in the same year for broadcast in 1984. It wasn't until 1985 when Nelvana had the budget and the staff to produce animated tv series independently with licensing deals with the Ewoks/Droids series and Care Bears (DIC also animated Care Bears episodes as well). Nelvana's relationship with DIC on the Inspector Gadget show probably led Nelvana to turn over work for a Get Along Gang tv show to DIC.
It's also worth pointing out that between June 1984 and February 1985 Nelvana were also working on "The Care Bears Movie", a major undertaking which no doubt taxed their available resources significantly.
Although DiC's animation wasn't as slick or consistent as Nelvana's, it wasn't animated radio either. It certainly wasn't any worse than anything that Hanna-Barbera, Filmation or Ruby-Spears etc were putting out at the same time and in some cases, arguably a lot better.
It would be interesting to compare the relative budgets and production times of the above and the average 20 minute DiC episode and find out what other obstacles DiC had to negotiate that Nelvana might not have encountered.
TV Network guidelines were strict enough for animated shows airing to play up the educational lesson and etiquette-teaching in the stories instead of putting in too much cartoon slapstick (or violence). It was either getting a high profile national television time slot on the schedule and keeping animation studio employees employed by following network rules of script writing or not getting the series shown on tv screens across the country at all.
And this was before the FCC initiated the law requiring network television station air a certain amount of E/I programming per week.
Thanks for the musical exposition, Welcome Back Kotter Guy.
I'm just glad that doesn't happen in real life. Last thing I need is someone singing about how I drink too much coffee.
I still have the Christmas Stocking from The Get Along Gang Moose. I remember loving this cartoon so much
Jorge Nunez me too. but, I think Teddy ruxpin is a better show than this, also because I'm a fan of him.
I didn't remember teddy ruxspin having a cartoon. although I do remember his toy
I still have my woolma stuffed animal! Lol showing my age...
I didn't know this gang; but now I would like to watch the 80s guys that are now in my heart. God bless everyone!🙏💕💖💗💚💛👶💎👨👩👦👦👨👩👧👨👩👧👦👨👩👧👧
The get along gang are a lot more nicer then other DIC cartoons
Animation was pretty cool, I like it.
Dotty Dog - A cheerleader and second-in-command to Montgomery. She is very optimistic and always has a way to cheer things up, although she is sometimes not careful and quick to judge some things at some point. She wears a white and red cheerleader outfit, white socks and black and white sneakers.
Saddle Shoes, not sneakers
Tyrone from The Backyardigans is literally just Montgomery. And considering that show is also a Nelvana production, you can't expect me to believe it was a coincidence.
Rocco Rabbit - A reformed bully with a tough exterior. He wears a red shirt, blue jeans and yellow tennis shoes.
at 1:31 for a moment, I thought that fox was taking a selfie, until I remembered that this cartoon was 30 odd years ago.
Exactly 38 years ago this premiered but I didn't get to see it until sixth grade. Kept getting pre-empted for sports ie football, golf, hockey, tennis, soccer
This Pilot Needs A Blu-Ray Print!
Would be cool, but it will take a miracle for it, as it would require clearance for the music.
Great galaxies, I remember watching that cartoon back on television every Saturday morning during the time when television used to always air cartoons every Saturday morning and on weekdays because I remember the Getalong gang cartoon series as a young boy when it once aired, I believe it aired on CBS back in 1984.
Zipper Cat - An athletic feline who excels at sports. He often plays the "tough guy", which sometimes shows that he is also cynical; however, he remains friendly to the rest of the gang. He wears an orange sports jacket over a blue turtleneck, matching orange shorts, white socks and orange tennis shoes.
^!^
Joseph Harrison he would be considered a health nut by today's standards.
The 9-2-5 Outlaw Reviews Zipper Cat is quite an athletic mercenary attitude fighter, if you asked me truly personally.
And furthermore, Dotty & Zipper should be getting married.
Omg lol I loved him! I loved this cartoon!
Zipper here is portrayed much closer to his original personality profile than in the DiC series IMHO. That goes for most of the other characters as well.
Catchum Crocodile - The show's main antagonist. He is a constant troublemaker who is always trying to take whatever he wanted, regardless of whose it was, sometimes through bets with Bingo. More than once, he had tried to steal the Gang's clubhouse caboose.
Huh, this is surprisingly good.
Despite it all going downhill from here when DIC picked it up
Woolma Lamb - An aspiring ballerina. She seems to be defined by her vanity and beauty, and is often seen carrying a mirror to admire herself. Sometimes, she can be selfish and irrational about things, but would stand up for others. She wears an entire yellow outfit consisting of a dance dress and ballet slippers.
I wish they would upload more of the get along gang shows on RUclips.
This is one piece of my childhood I don't want Doug Walker even sneezing at!!! 😎
Meh. He would trash it and I wouldn't care. I loved it then and I still do. Everyone has their opinion. It's no big deal.
There have been those rare times where Doug Walker has poisoned the perception of certain old shows/movies etc that deserved better.
Andy Garza I do I sure do I want him to rip this cartoon apart.
80s cartoons, Good times
Greenriver Utah yep I was an 80s child and I enjoyed cartoons
Born in late 1985 and I was exposed to 80s cartoons through rental stores and reruns on Disney and Nickelodeon.
Join Montgomery "Good News" Moose (voiced by Sparky Marcus) - The leader of the Get Along Gang. He is very nurturing and kind, and knows what is right or wrong, although he is sometimes awkward. Montgomery is also very well-rounded: he excels in athletics, tinkering in electronics, and science. He wears a blue turtleneck, yellow pants and brown loafers.
Dotty Dog (voiced by Bettina Bush) - A cheerleader and second-in-command to Montgomery. She is very optimistic and always has a way to cheer things up, although she is sometimes not careful and quick to judge some things at some point. She wears a white and red cheerleader outfit, white socks and black and white sneakers.
Woolma Lamb (voiced by Georgi Irene) - An aspiring ballerina. She seems to be defined by her vanity and beauty, and is often seen carrying a mirror to admire herself. Sometimes, she can be selfish and irrational about things, but would stand up for others. She wears an entire yellow outfit consisting of a dance dress and ballet slippers.
Zipper Cat (voiced by Robbie Lee) - An athletic feline who excels at sports. He often plays the "tough guy", which sometimes shows that he is also cynical; however, he remains friendly to the rest of the gang. He wears an orange sports jacket over a blue turtleneck, matching orange shorts, white socks and orange tennis shoes.
Portia Porcupine (voiced by Sherry Lynn) - The youngest member of the Gang. She is very inquisitive, curious and likes her own style, but tends to cry or throw tantrums when frustrated. She wears a white shirt, blue folded jeans (denim shorts in the 1984 special), and black and white sneakers.
Bingo "Bet-It-All" Beaver (voiced by Scott Menville) - A prankster and gambler whose bets and mistakes sometimes cause his friends to be angry with him; on the other hand, however, he enjoys being with his company. He wears blue overalls which carry a red scarf inside a pocket, and black and white sneakers.
Braker Turtle (voiced by Frank Welker/Don Messick) - A smart problem-solver. In contrast to his real-life species, he is also the fastest runner in Green Meadow. He enjoys being hip, despite his nerdy appearance. Braker makes occasional speaking appearances in the DIC cartoon series, usually as a friend of the gang, but did not appear to be a full-time member of the gang. He wears a blue jacket over an orange turtleneck, white pants and blue shoes.
Rocco Rabbit - A reformed bully with a tough exterior. He wears a red shirt, blue jeans and yellow tennis shoes.
Rudyard Lion - A foreign-exchange student, who has a crush on Woolma. He wears a magenta Hawaiian shirt, orange pants, black and white sneakers and a black hat.
Flora "Forget-Me-Not" Fox - An avid botanist and photographer. She is extroverted, rather the one not to hide her feelings, despite appearing shy to others. She wears a yellow collar shirt under a sky blue dress, matching socks and mary janes.
Bernice Bear - A very sensible girl who likes keeping things neat and tidy. She enjoys baton twirling and is also proficient in cooking and sewing. She wears a pink sweater over a white blouse, blue shorts and brown loafers.

Hocus Hare and Pocus Possum - A pair of magicians. Hocus wears a pink dress over a yellow blouse and under gray coattails, and pink dress shoes. Pocus wears red coattails over a gray dress shirt, blue pants, and black shoes.
The two regular villains of the show were the only non-mammals in the series aside from Braker:
Catchum Crocodile (voiced by Timothy Gibbs) - The show's main antagonist. He is a constant troublemaker who is always trying to take whatever he wanted, regardless of whose it was, sometimes through bets with Bingo. More than once, he had tried to steal the Gang's clubhouse caboose.
Leland Lizard (voiced by Nicky Katt) - Catchum's sidekick. Although he is rather dopey, he is not always as dumb as he looked, and is sometimes especially sneaky. In the pilot, he was able to change color, but he showed no such ability in the series
And Of Course Boys and Girls Just Like You When I Hope Enjoy Yourself
Agreed.
How I´d like to be born in these years! that´s a pity that have not Portuguese version (but even knowing just a little of English I could understand) of this animated cartoon, I loved that. It carries precepts I have never seen anymore.
You know, the hilarious bit is that Catchum spent as much time looking for a winning prize as the others did.
Portia Porcupine - The youngest member of the Gang. She is very inquisitive, curious and likes her own style, but tends to cry or throw tantrums when frustrated. She wears a white shirt, blue folded jeans (denim shorts in the 1984 special), and black and white sneakers.
Gosh, I wish they had this show where I grew up; I had one book about the characters but they didn't show the cartoon here, and I remember I loved the characters so much! XD
Finally have these on dvd & watched them all💖
me too
In 2008
Lolly Squirrel - The daughter of the candy factory owner. She has good manners, yet tends to be a bit of a tattletale at times. She wears a red cardigan over a pink dress, white socks with red mary janes, and a matching beret.
No offense, Joseph Harrison; to *Ms. Lolly Squirrel* pun intended, but *candy is N🚫T my taste type anymore forever.*
But she'll get a boyfriend like *Bingo "Bet-It-All" Beaver.*
I loved these growing up. Ahhh, Nostalgia
This was my favorite show as kid
Phone rings....Montgomery- Hello? Doc? WAIT! Doc, You're telling it's 8:45? Dang. We're late for School! guitar music plays. The power of love is a curious thing...
It is rare that a pilot cartoon was animated by one studio and then the series was animated by another with a different voice actor cast. The anime series Kimagure Orange Road had the same thing with a direct to video pilot episode and then a different studio animating the 48 episode tv series plus new Original Video Animation episodes and two theatrical movies with a different voice cast. An animated Dennis The Menace had a cartoon special produced by DePatie Freleng/Marvel Productions around 1980 and later had an animated series produced by DIC for syndication in 1985 and later for CBS Saturday mornings in 1988.
True, Pilots are supposed to be Inferior to the rest of the series not the other way round lol
My husband wrote the opening song when we owned a jingle business in Cleveland.
I still enjoy wach 80s cartoons.
I had Zipper as a stuffed animal. It had skates you could take off and would stand on its feet or skates. I think I may still have it.
The original Get Along Gang! I loved the original voice of Montgomery Moose (who sounded like Gomer Pyle) Sadly when DiC took over The Get Along Gang series all the characters were redesigned, new voice over actors replaced the original voice over actors and everything went downhill from there.
The animation quality dropped. I thought the animation here was great, especially the expressions on their faces, which seemed very vibrant and animated. I didn't watch much of the other one, but it didn't seem nearly as good.
To be fair, Nelvana did not have the capacity or staff for tv series production in 1983 when the Gang special was made. The studio did animate the full length "Rock and Rule" movie and several half hour tv specials but no series. It wasn't until 1985 when they have the staff and budget for tv show animation. They animated the Care Bears series and the Droids/Ewoks cartoons.
BTW, the original voice of Montgomery was Charles Haid who was appearing in the series Hill Street Blues as Officer Renko. Haid was quite busy as a regular on that program and may not have the time to play Montgomery if Nelvana animated the tv series. Haid later played Lucky Jack in the animated Disney movie Home on the Range.
bigg34691 I think Cam Clarke was the voice of Montgomery good news Moose in the TV series when the series was picked up by CBS and they had a bigger budget. Thus, the animation budget and voice quality went up. Because this cartoon pilot is boring as hell even as if it were in 1984-1985.
No it was Sparky Marcus the voice of Montgomery and also Dorno from the Herculoids 1981 version. Cam Clarke was the voice for Dogtanian, Leonardo from Ninja Turtles and Liquid Snake. Scott Menville was voice for Bingo Beaver in the tv series and he also voiced in the 1986 version of Jonny Quest. The tv series has two Hanna-Barbera voice actors like Don Messick the voice of Officer Growler (another cartoon dog character for Don Messick) and Frank Welker the voice of Braker Turtle.
All 13 episodes of the TV series are available, the last 3 episodes are on the TV Toons 2 Go box set.

loved this when i was younger
I love the get along gang 🇬🇧👍🏻
love the Get Along Gang so much
sue
Wow. The Nelvana special looks way better than the DiC series.
I wish it was made by them.
Wish they would have stuck with Nelvana for the series as well.
wow! Blast from the past! Thanks for posting!!
I loved this cartoon so much, that I had the entire bed sheets set :-) #GetAlongGang #OldieButGoodie
The pilot is currently not available on DVD (due to separate ownership rights). All 13 episodes of the TV series are available on DVD. The first 10 are on the 'Best Of' collection, while the last 3 episodes are on the TV Toons 2 Go boxset, along with several other properties owned by DHX Media (formally Cookie Jar).
You can see the major difference is animation quality in this which looks like a pilot episode, compared to the Saturday morning run. Nelvana did make a lot of quality cartoons back in the day. Quite sad this is not the case anymore. If it is, sure as hell are none shown in the states.
Nelvana would have been able to focus their entire budget and workforce on making one 22 minute special. DiC had the unenviable task of making thirteen 22 minute episodes while also producing several other series as well.
@@fiveofseven Despite the pilot being better than the series in my opinion
I used to have a crush on the dog girl.
Oh shit that sheep girl....
+lee-alverseo Jackson The "dog girl" you were referring to was Dotty Dog, and the "sheep girl" was Woolma Lamb.
+Blackstardude10
I was trying to remember the lambs name...been ages since I seem the books.
Well, there you go. Just figuring that I could help you out a bit.
+Blackstardude10 I loved this series was a huge fan of the moose

This pilot is like a million times better than the show itself....
i hope it will come soon to dvd i got the series on dvd
I agree. The animation was a lot better in this than the series.
I agree. I think Nelvana should've produced the series.
While I do have my criticisms for this, but I have to thank this special for putting the phrase "I laugh at your cow." into the universe.
Bingo "Bet-It-All" Beaver - A prankster and gambler whose bets and mistakes sometimes cause his friends to be angry with him; on the other hand, however, he enjoys being with his company. He wears blue overalls which carry a red scarf inside a pocket, and black and white sneakers.
Zipper Cat's right. Bingo Beaver will never change, even if he and his betting days go to Las Vegas.
"In a town that's a lot like yours, lives some kids who know what a gang is for..." Umm, am I the only one who wanted to say 'bust some caps and do some coke?' and half expect that to happen?
PMSL!
people on coke are stupid idiots
This is the Go Along Get Along Gang that Kwame was talking about!
The theme song for this is better than it would be for DIC's series, too!
Whoah. What a throwback!
Memories I Was 5😁Love Dotty Dog💯
My group of friends is called the get along gang and I’m 12
Oi posso falar com VC meu nome é Alejandro tenho 11 anos
any more episodes like this with all the characters in i used to love this programme as a kid and rainbow brite and me to you bears they should make more programmes like this
Even tho I am kid I love this show so much
Hocus Hare and Pocus Possum - A pair of magicians. Hocus wears a pink dress over a yellow blouse and under gray coattails, and pink dress shoes. Pocus wears red coattails over a gray blouse, blue pants, and black shoes.
I like nelvana's animation better than dic's , it was bolder and brighter . I like the voices in this GAG.
DiC must have been cheaper. I loved the GAG show, but this pilot has way better animation and voice work.
Also, the GAG themselves were so much better here too.
Just a shame that all the episodes are no longer around.
Nelvana later produced the 2000s series "6teen"...an animated sitcom about 6 friends who hang out and work in a giant shopping mall. A teen human Get Along Gang in a series.
Rudyard Lion - A foreign-exchange student, who has a crush on Woolma. He wears a magenta Hawaiian shirt, orange pants, black and white sneakers and a black hat.
The lion and the lamb

Montgomery is also very well-rounded: he excels in athletics, tinkering in electronics, and science. He wears a blue turtleneck, yellow pants and brown loafers.
Devious Catch am, and Leland.
I was 5 when this came out. What is funny...i said out loud.....the get along gang and looked it up. I barely remember this yet the name stuck.
Bingo: "Wanna Bet!!! Just leave it to old, Bingo "Bet-It-All" Beaver!!!" 2:49- 2:55 I LIKE THAT QUOTE!!!!
Okay, okay, enough of the quoting...
I like it too! :)
oh wow, definitely my show when I was in elementary school
Ladies and gentlemen, I wish to bring and return Get Along Gang back in the future if you wants to hope
Leeland was my favorite character when I was little and so was Catchum. I thought in a way Leeland was a lot like Sir Hiss and the lizard who worked for Ratigan. He has that Disney kind of look especially that Catchum is a lot like Prince John. The first time I saw this was when I was four, my sibling had it recorded from Showtime before I was born.
Zipper looked more like either a wolf or a Siberian husky than a cat.
I still have all 6 stuffed animals with their little plastic skates....I had some of the miniatures and the poseable figurines, and if I remember I had Hoofnagel's Ice Cream Imporium too.
Flora "Forget-Me-Not" Fox - An avid botanist and photographer. She is extroverted, rather the one not to hide her feelings, despite appearing shy to others. She wears a yellow collar shirt under a sky blue dress, matching socks and mary janes.
The Best 80s cartoons and I loved this cartoon as a kid. I got the dog with the roller skates
as a doll. I used to watch so many 80s cartoons Man did this bring back memories and I miss the old days so much. We had Erols video store and then Blockbuster, Shopping Malls,
Tower Records, everything in every single mall. The 90s wasn't so bad either. 1990-2000
everything was jumping 2001-2018 everything went to shit and I remember going to the beach Seaside Heights in NJ Wild Wood, Altantic City, The weather was great so warm! Now everything is gone. I hate 21st century.
Montgomery moose! I loved this show as a kid.
Schneider Squirrel - Lolly's father and owner of the candy factory. Schneider appeared only in the Marvel comic book stories.
Huh?
Schneider Squirrel, Lolly's father. Look it up!
I'm not going to say which version is better, because I'd like to see all the episodes first before I have an opinion. But I will say that here they have more matured voices, whereas in the series, the Get Along Gang had more kid voices, which makes sense because they're supposed to be kids anyway. Have you noticed that Montgomery has a bit of a southern drawl in the pilot but not in the series. Zipper's voice has the most notable age difference from the pilot to the series. I thought Catchum Crocodile's voice was more gruff and reflective of his bully persona in the DiC series. Here it sounds just more sly and arrogant. Leland Lizard in the pilot was more goofy, whereas in the series, he was a spineless lackey.
Although I like the Get Along Gang Pilot, I'm willing to cut some slack on the DiC version.
Oi vc gosta desse desenho porque queria fazer umas perguntas posso falar com você mais qual é seu nome??
Oi
I just realized there was that many kids in the GAG. I suppose being used to the TV series that came afterwards, I thought there was only six of these guys but I guess not (not having much familiarity with their appearance in merchandising and the like). The lion character looked rather interesting, too bad those guys didn't get much lines to say at all here outside the central 6 kids.
The toy line concentrated on the main 6 (Montgomery, Dotty, Zipper, Woolma, Bingo, and Portia) and the tv series focus was on those 6 with Braker Turtle making occasional speaking appearances as a friend of the Gang but not a full-time member. It would be difficult to have all or many of the 12 kids in the gang appearing in most or every story with the 10 minute story episode format (2 stories per half hour show). If the Gang series went into weekday syndication production with the standard 65 half hour episodes so common during the mid 1980s, there might have been more appearances of the entire Gang group or some of the "other 6" (Braker, Bernice, Rocco, Rudyard, Lolly, Flora) kids as a central focus in some stories...like "The Transformers", "He-Man", "GI Joe" and so on.
I was a fan of "Hill Street Blues", "St. Elsewhere", and "L.A. Law" prime time shows at the time with a regular cast of 12 or more actors plus guest stars in 3 individual storylines per hour episode. The Gang series would have potential like those popular prime-time shows to follow that kind of multiple story format per episode if the running time was a half hour or one hour story in length. DIC Productions had the capability to create new episodes for weekday broadcast but sadly, the Gang's tv series run ended after one season's worth of 13 half hour episodes in constant rerun cycle for CBS.
artytoons Interesting it lasted as short as it did.
Christopher Sobieniak The Gang concept seemed to last longer in the United Kingdom with a 93 issue weekly comic book series running from 1985 to 1987 with original comic panel and text stories with the characters. A good number of current Gang fans come from the UK.
The toy and greeting card line lasted until 1986 in the US when the Gang tv series ended its run.
Lots of potential that are left unfulfilled with this group of furry kids in "real life small town" adventures for all ages. If "My Little Pony" can be resurrected in its current mega-hit status...who knows if maybe "The Get Along Gang" can follow...
artytoons I suppose if American Greetings will get around to that like they did for the Care Bears.
The books had all the character; I know because I used to read those.
I'm actually working on a G.A.G revival pitch. I plan on redesigning them to look less like plushies and more dynamic. Sort of like Joe Murray's style. Keep the character's personalities but update them to be more comedic than sanctimonious.
"Sanctimonious"?
Make Dotty and Zipper have a crush on each other. A lot of animated shows these days seem to do that.
It was from Showtime Networks!
I like Rudyard Lion, he's my favourite character.
Cool. My favorites are Dotty and Zipper
@@colinmiller8824 Me 2, Dotty Dog & Zipper Cat are about to have lots of intergratedly crossbreed sex with each other, before Dotty Dog will be truly getting married to Zipper Cat.
And in my vantage point Dotty will soon be get pregnant from Zipper Cat.
My favorite two I wish he had speaking dialogue in this
