Tic et Tac, les rangers du risque

Though essentially a children's program, Chip N' Dale's Rescue Rangers possesses that wonderful quality which makes it enjoyable to both young and old alike. The story follows four noble-minded rodents and a house fly who solve mysteries and generally help people, and others, in need. The villains are often hysterical and their diabolical schemes hilariously absurd. There is physical comedy aplenty and enough action to keep the wee ones interested. Meanwhile, the not-so-wee ones will be recognizing referenes to everything from Rocky and Bullwinkle to The Fly. The voice acting is clever, and the charaters are easy and likeable.

Of the five main charaters, Chip is the sharp-witted, responsible one. That of course means he often has to play the unfortunate straight man to the others' hijinks. Dale is the silly, fun-loving one who likes to play jokes (usually on Chip) and basically have a good time. Monterey Jack's the affable, adventurous Aussie wth a nose for trouble and even more so for cheese. Monterey's "little pally" Zipper the housefly courageosly performs feats above and beyond the call of duty of a "household pest." Gadget is the MacGyver of the group. She's an absent minded, though unquestionably brilliant, engineer who can make just about anything out of practically nothing.

It's fun. It's funny. It's the Rescue Rangers. Enjoy!

Unlike most of the modern, horrible cartoons people put out for children these days, Chip n' Dale's Rescue Rangers is a genuinely good show. Like much of the older Disney stuff, it is actually watchable by adults, and is very cute. The five main characters all have interesting interactions, and the stories are well done. All of the characters have depth of personality, and Gadget, far from being arm-candy, is one very independent. Unlike almost every other show, the independent female character never ends up with one of the other characters and all five characters remain single.

It is an excellently done show, and is great for children but still enjoyable for adults. I gave it a 10/10, as it is one of the greatest shows, particularly animated shows, of all time.

Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers was pretty good, with nifty vehicles made of old toys and garbage, quality animation and good voice acting. However, it could have stood a few more episodes. The balance of characters was strong enough to carry out another season's worth of plots without any slowdown.

There was Gadget, unaware of her genius and beauty, Monteray Jack, tough guy with a cheese fetish, Zipper, a fly who frequently acted as a parachute for the various rangers, and Chip 'n Dale, constantly bickering and talking incredibly fast.

Disney did occasionally add new episodes to their animated shows, Gargoyles for example. I've seen Chip 'n Dale and I've seen Gargoyles. And I think Chip 'n Dale could have produced more episodes than Gargoyles.

Disney reigns the animated television series king in 1989 with "Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers," a cartoon about Chip, Dale, Gadget, Monterey Jack, and Zipper, all having lots of fearless adventures and having lots of fun!!!!!

They all live in a tree, ala the Keebler elves, and they have things like a big screen TV with Christmas Lights and a round sofa, an "R/R" flag, a tire/Tinker Toy slide, dominoes for stairs, a mailbox garage, a kitchen, and just about everything that you could find in their home/ headquarters!!!!!

As a child of the early 90s, I've watched this on the Disney Afternoon, and played the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) game from Capcom, like what everyone else always did back in the day!!!!! Man, both were so much fun! I wish times like this were here again! Oh well; guess I'll have to invest in a time machine!!!!! LOL

"Rescue Rangers" is a wonderful show; fun for the whole family!!!!!

10 stars!

The Rescue Rangers is one of those rare children's programs that actually gets better as the viewer gets older. The writing is clever, the characters are easily likeable, and the capers the furry heros solve are delightfully absurd. Movie fans will also find parodies of films like The Fly and The African Queen as well as numerous pop references. The surprisingly three-dimentional heros are best part. Chip is dutiful, quick-witted, and resourceful. Of course, this means he often plays the straight-man for the others' antics. Dale, in many ways, is Chip's antithesis. He's fun-lovng and goofy, and he has a penchant for playing practical jokes.

Gadget is about the most atypical female character in all of cartoons. She's an absent-minded if brilliant mechanic who tends to solve most of the team's more urgent problems with her lever, unusual, and often dangerous inventions. Monterey Jack is an adventureous Aussie with a love for brawling and an even greater love for cheese. The really cool thing about Monterey is that he can both be a leader like Chip and a joker like Dale. Monterey's "little pally" Zipper rounds out the team as the courageous and surprisingly strong musca domestica.
