Conde Quácula

My first review was based on blurred childhood memories, since it was a long time since I last saw the show. Now, with me able to see some of the old episodes on a DVD I bought at the comic con, does it meet the expectations I had from my childhood times? YOU BET!

Man, the show's hilarious. There's Duckula, Egor, Nanny, who literally comes through the door, and those two bats that I remembered. Man, the jokes in this show were great! The "whomightyoube," gag in, "No Sax Please, We're Egyptian," was so funny!

And for people who put in "something something" in the lyrics, the first line in the theme song is: "In the heart of Transylvania, in the vampire hall of fame, yeah, there's not a vampire zanier than DUCKULA!" Great stuff. A must-see.

BOTTOM LINE: Funny! I like it even more than Danger Mouse!

So Danger Mouse comes to an end...

What do you do?

All agree that it was a good ride while it lasted?

Make a living out of all those "I Love the 80's" programmes talking about it

Or do you get up and make another classic cartoon!

David Jason returned for more cartoon goodness, the bloke is a god! This time we watch the world of a Vampire Duck living with Igor and his Nanny... with the DUCKY-POOS line...GOLD! And who can forget the other characters Van Goosewing and those Cuckoo clock characters....

FANTASTIC

'Count Duckula' is a classic animated show with dark humor. It's an enjoyable, eccentric and original cartoon. It's one of those cartoons I grew up with during my infant days.

This TV show has a dark atmosphere and takes place in a spooky castle where the main protagonists of this TV show live: the count Duckula, the butler Igor and the nanny (whose name is unknown) with an arm sling.

However, there's nothing scary about this TV show. As a matter of fact, this is a funny and hilarious TV show, more humorous than dark.

Count Duckula is a different kind of vampire: he doesn't like blood - instead, he is a vegetarian and he's often "chicken". He's also hyperactive and very talkative. Count Duckula is a great character and I can say the same about Igor and the nanny. Plus, as a kid I had a neighbor and friend named Igor and, even if it's just because of the name Igor, I can't help remembering this guy when I think of the butler Igor.

This TV show has simple but nice designs and backgrounds, as well as a great dark atmosphere, classic humor, a good song at the opening credits and an ever better version of the same song in the final credits. The ending credits themselves are better than the opening ones, because they are funnier and stranger - we can see some eccentric and bizarre images during them, images that also makes one laugh. Plus, I always loved to see the Tames TV Productions ident which always appeared after the final credits. It shows a beautiful sight of London city and you can even see the city's reflex on the water, which only makes it more beautiful to watch.

Good show. They don't make 'em like this any longer.

Superb! Hilarious! Cute? This tv cartoon was part of my childhood, it was like a part of me! I can't describe how much I enjoyed this cartoon. It's humoristic situations and dialogues make this a winner. Ahhh, these sweet memories of the childhood. If you have the chance to watch this great cartoon well give yourself the opportunity you won't regret. Long live Count Duckula!

This is one cartoon show which I used to rush home from work to try and catch at times. It was a spin-off from the hilarious Danger Mouse and it was truly funny.

I mean, how can anyone hate a cartoon starring a vampire duck...that was a vegetarian? Who can forget the lumbering Igor or Nanny who permanently wore an arm sling?

Duckula himself was just amazing-he came out with some really funny lines throughout the series and the stories were very good indeed and far superior to today's cartoons which are very poor (sorry kids).

Check out Duckula if you can.
