The Mighty Ducks movies were a popular series of films, reminiscent of
The Bad News Bears, where a
Ragtag Bunch of Misfits play hockey and get into various misadventures and manage to work things out just in time to win the championship game or whatever.
The Mighty Ducks animated series was, to put it gently,
rather a surprise for viewers expecting a comedy series about misfit kids playing hockey and who instead got a cartoon about anthropomorphic alien ducks playing hockey — and
fighting crime.
