Les nouvelles aventures de Doug

When I first heard about a new series of "Doug" I was thrilled since I loved "Old Doug". After I saw the first episode I thought it was really good. It wasn't as good as the NICK series but it was still pretty good. I liked the 12 1/2 year old Doug (he got cuter) and Doug being in middle school. I didn't have a problem with this new series tho many people said it wasn't very good and that Disney destroyed it. I liked the fact that Doug got older and more mature since I and many other viewers also got older and more mature.

My favorite "New Doug" episodes are "Doug's Dream House" and "Doug on the Road". They're both really funny and entertaining.

I wish this series wasn't canceled since I really loved it. But maybe one day they will make a new "Doug" series about him in High School. I give "New Doug" 10/10 stars.

I started watching this show about a year ago when it started on ToonDisney, and I love it! Though, when I go back and look at the old Doug (which I didnt watch until very recently) I dont like it, and never have. Perhaps if I had started watching the original Doug when it came on, I might like it and hate this, who knows. Im glad that they changed the title to "Disneys Doug" when Disney carried it over, though, "Brand Spanking New Doug" is a terrible title. I give it 7 out of 10.

Sure, there might not be a whole lot to say about this show, but it's had a good run for almost 7 years. The reason I like this show is because it doesn't have to do with kids trying to save the world with their crazy pocket monsters or seeing how far an animated show can go.

Doug deals with problems that a lot of kids face, some that will last a lifetime or some that are just part of a phase. I've been watching this show ever since I was 6 years old, and I was saddened after watching the last episode last year. It really showed how Doug grew up over the years, instead of keeping him in 5th grade the whole time. That's how childhood is, and that's why this show really appealed to me over the years.

This cartoon is a continuation from the fan favorite Doug from the 90s. Only difference is it's produced by Disney and not Nick.

Takes place a year after the events in the first series. Where Doug and his friends enter Junior High. With a load of changes that give Bluffington a total twist. We see some familiar faces along with Doug, as well as some new ones. Not to mention the usual lifestyle, problems, and activities involved in each episode like the in the previous series.

Designed, and animated by the same company: Jumbo. Voiced by the same actors except for Billy West who didn't want to be part of it. Same multi color characters. But it all feels entirely different from the cartoon I knew from the early 90s.

A lot of other fans don't compare this to being equal to the original. Which I agree too, as the Disney Doug contains no charm or brilliants what-so-ever. most of the episodes are good to watch, but like 3/4's of them are very uninteresting, out of character, misleading, poorly written, as well as unoriginal.

You might ask why in the word a great cartoon like Doug could receive a less-worthy sequel. For me it could either be A. There's no Honker Burger(which was bought out in this series under the name of the cheesy French restaurant), B. Doug involved in rather stupid situations than before, C. Adding Dirtbike as the new member of the Funny family rather pointless, or D. Having the whole series under the name of Disney.

Whatever the real reason is, Disney's Doug fails to be a fan favorite for most of the other Doug fans. I'm perfectly fine watching the original countless times as I find that one more appealing than this. If you hate this second series, then stay away from the movie. See my review on that one for more detail.

The lead comment was that this show was a low point for ABC. I didn't see it that way back in September of 1996. We'd lost cable 8 months earlier and I was really missing the Nick version of "Doug". I was more the extatic to find out they were bring the show to a channel I still got. Then I saw the Trailer, and yes the show's plot, theme song, and everything else about it get turned upside-down. I maintain however the basic theme of the show was still the same. Doug still lived in Bluffington and still wrote in his Journal. That's all I needed to know.

This show depends a lot on seeing the Nick series but before long really becomes its own force as we are introduced to life at a Junior High-School that is under-construction. My favorite episode was the one where they were trapped in the school by a blizzard, and one of the kids goes off to find a secret paradise room, hidden in the Principal's Office. I've yet to find other shows that come close to story lines like that. The theme of my life for a long, long time. In fact, to this day, in my ENG classes at TCC I still will write my Narrative Stories in the "Doug" format of normal life adventures gone wrong. It works!
