Retour vers le futur

Back to the Future: The Animated Series is far from a perfect animated adventure of the Back to the Future world. It has enough humor, color and happiness to entertain younger 5-9 year old fans of the franchise, but for ages 9 and up, it isn't good enough.

Cons: The animation is typical Saturday morning, the jokes usually fall flat, and the two new kids of Doc and Clara, Jules and Verne, really make the show worse. They are super annoying and unfunny, and if they weren't even in the show, it would be 3x better, and i would give it 8 out of 10, but they just aren't good. I also don't understand why Christopher Lloyd couldn't be Doc in the animated segments, but can be Doc in the live action segments.

Pros: It is at least trying to give you good entertainment. The episode Brothers is pretty good, and is one of the only good episodes in the short lived series. It has more laughs, more plot, and better Jules and Verne, surprisingly. Doc actually sounds like Doc in this episode. But those are the only pros in the show.

Overall, I have mixed to negative reception to this animated show. The mixed part is the plot. Its sometimes pretty good, but some of the episodes have a really bland one. The negative is everything else. At least try new animation. It would be better. I won't really recommend this if you love the movies, but I guess its enjoyable for the young ones.

There was this odd trend in the 80's and 90's where if a movie was popular, it would get a cartoon series. Even if the movie was more for adults than kids (like "Spaceballs" and "RoboCop") it got a cartoon. And one of those movies was "Back to the Future". Now, I'm not saying all cartoons based on movies are awful, just look at "Real Ghostbusters", but this one isn't that good. I'm a hard core "Back to the Future" fan, but even I can't defend this as a great show. However, it is a guilty pleasure for me. I do find myself watching it every once in a while, and even chuckling at some of the jokes. I even try to watch the "Christmas Carol" episode around Christmas. If your looking for an animated show based on a movie that's just as good as the movie, this is not for you. But if you're a hard core "BTTF" fan and can enjoy anything with Doc and Marty in it no matter how silly it is, feel free to give this a shot.

this is a great cartoon, I really enjoyed it, I am a big fan of Back To The Future it's my top favorite movie of all time, so I am inclined to like this, but it's very enjoyable and good for the kids, I like the parts with Dr Brown I think they're interesting and funny,Sad that this show is unavailable on DVD along with some other shows I loved like The Wonder Years,and China Beach.I just keep waiting for them to get caught up to these shows and release them. I am happy to find all 26 episode on you tube some of the quality is not that great but hopefully it is released on DVD. 1. Back to The Future 2. Return of The Living Dead 3. The Crow 4. Robocop 5. Batman 1989 my top 5 movies of all time.

The animated adventures of Doc and Marty were a great way to continue the series, however a few things could've helped. First of all, only a few cast members from the films returned to voice characters, which is a shame. The only time we see Christopher Lloyd as Doc is in the wrap arounds, and the voice of Doc is provided by Dan Castellaneta (the voice of Homer Simpson). It probably would have been a more successful show had Michael J. Fox also returned as the voice of Marty.

However, the true fans are still happy with the result, and the show has a sort of cult status. The fact that CBS only seldom aired reruns, the audience wasn't wide and many fans of the film series hadn't seen this show. Thankfully, the whole series is now available on dvd since 2015, the franchises 30th anniversary.

I like this cartoon and Dan Castellaneta is hilarious as the voice of Doc. When I see Doc, Dan does a great impression of Christopher Lloyd's character. It was great that Tom Wilson reprised his role as the voice of Biff Tannen. I would usually watch this online. I liked the adventures of Marty, Doc, Jules and Verne. I saw some of Biff's ancestors from time to time and it's still great to have Biff being the bad boy like he did in the trilogy. I noticed that the characters would usually fall or getting hit in a funny way. I hope I can get the entire set on DVD and enjoy it.
