History WesternAnimation / OneHundredAndOneDalmatians

* ConeOfShame: Lucky in the AnimatedSeries had to wear a cone after falling from a high tree branch and getting stitches. Cue humiliation from the other dogs.

* LaughTrack: In "You Slipped a Disk," one is briefly played after Lucky accidentally pounces Rolly and Cadpig suggests "Um... Lucky? Next time, why don't you tackle the bad guy?"

The television show will be airing on the upcoming Disney Junior network, for whatever reason. While the show isn't a preschool show, it still has good morals at the end of the episodes, plus little kids probably are already familiar with the characters.

''TheHundredAndOneDalmatians'' was adapted for animation by [[DisneyAnimatedCanon Walt Disney Pictures]] and it was the second Disney animated film to be set unambiguously in contemporary times. Furthermore, the 1961 production was the first to use xerography to ease the inking process and make a film with this much technical complexity (the 101 dogs and their collective innumerable spots) possible. Unfortunately, this technology became the norm and its limitations trapped all Disney animation into a hard scratchy outline look for 16 years until ''TheRescuers'', which finally was able to use further advancements for allow for a softer look again.

This film is #17 in DisneyAnimatedCanon.

* InnocentPanties: In "Poison Ivy", the episode's titular character's pink panties are seen under her dress and from the front quickly at one point, as she skips along while pushing her dolly's buggy.

* OffModel: The episodes animated by WangFilmProductions and KokoEnterprises come into this. Also in play due to other [[hottip:studios: mostly TamaProductions, HanhoHeungUp, ToonCity and PlusOneAnimation]] being involved.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Pongo and Perdita are as charming and adorable as animated dogs can be. But mess with any of their kids and things '''will''' get ugly.

* WorstNewsJudgmentEver: Why do [[BritishNewspapers National Newspapers]] like ''The Independent'' have reports on two relative nobodies getting married? Or make the kidnapping of fifteen puppies front page headline news?
** Well, Anita did work for Cruella as a fashion designer for a pretty big company. That counts as something, right?

* {{Angrish}}: When Cruella comes to claim the puppies Rogers starts stuttering in anger.

Disney adapted it ''again'' in live-action in 1996, casting Glenn Close as Cruella and setting the story in more modern times. The remake was mixed in critical terms, but it turned out such a big monetary profit that it spun off an AnimatedSeries that ran in both Syndication (as part of what remained of TheDisneyAfternoon) and on Saturday mornings (as part of ABC's One Saturday Morning) in the 1997-98 season. Did we mention it was made by the same studio that made ''{{Doug}}''? Then the live-action version got a sequel in 2000, as did the animated version three years later.

* {{Americanization}}: The show is clearly set in the U.S. judging from the accents and the presence of a mailbox reading "US MAIL" at one point.

* EvilBrit: While the rest of the characters are {{Americaniz|ation}}ed, Cruella, judging by her accent, remains British. Hmm...

* CatsAreMean: Completely averted with Sergeant Tibbs; he's perfectly fine around dogs and vice versa.

** "What's My Crime?" (which is also a ShoutOut to ''Series/WhatsMyLine'']])

* CatScare: Happens twice. The first time, Jasper tries to take a swig from a bottle and mistakingly tries to drink the cat. The second time is when Tibbs is helping the puppies to hide. Tibbs can't take on Horace and Jasper on his own, but when Jasper looks under the bed, the ensuing MEEEOOWWWW and wild leap from Tibbs startles Jasper enough for the puppies to run by him.

* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
* ExcessiveEvilEyeshadow: Cruella.

* AllThereInTheManual: Pretty much ''all'' of the puppies names are found only in promotional materials for the film.

* CutSong: Some alternate songs about Cruella (one of which, "The Creation of Cruella de Vil," is full of NightmareFuel), a DrunkenSong for Horace and Jasper, and some marching songs for the dogs' return to London.

* IKnowKungFu: In the sequel, Thunderbolt uses his [[BrickJoke dramatic death scene]] to distract Cruella and her lackeys while the puppies get away.

* PinkGirlBlueBoy: Averted and possibly even ''in''verted with the dogs' collars. Later adaptations didn't care as much. [[OffModel Nor did the tie-in merchandise artists.]]

* MeaningfulName: Lucky is, well [[ShapedLikeItself lucky,]] Rolly is fat, Wizzer has a weak bladder...

* ThoseTwoGuys: Domino and Little Dipper in ''102 Dalmatians''
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: Jasper and Horace
* TotallyRadical: The video game that Roger designs would not have made much money in the 1996 market.

** BiggerBad: Malevola De Vil
** TheBigBad: Cruella De Vil
** TheDragon: Cecil B. De Vil
** TheEvilGenius: P. H. De Vil
** TheBrute: Horace and Jasper
** TheDarkChick: Ivy De Vil

** TheHero: Lucky
** TheLancer: This varies, but usually Spot

** [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Girl]]: Spot
** TheBigGuy: Rolly
** TheChick: Cadpig
** TheSixthRanger: This varies but usually Patch, Tripod, or Two-Tone

* HandicappedBadass: Tripod, the three legged dog.

* [[IDontThinkThatsSuchAGoodIdea I Don't Think That's Such A Good Idea]]: Spot is CloserToEarth than the puppies and will often voice her concern over their latest ZanyScheme, only to be ignored.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: ''Dalmatian Vacation'' was released onto video CD in the late `90's very quietly, as did the VHS of ''101 Dalmatians Christmas''. And after ToonDisney pulled it, it was gone...[[AndTheFandomRejoiced until it was announced that it would be part of the new Disney Jr channel]].

* TookALevelInBadass: Spot when she becomes [[GreatDetective Pullet Marlow.]]

* CoolCar: Cruella's car, even with it apparently being incredibly fragile, as demonstrated in the climax. A lot of people have put effort into trying to figure out what model it is.
