[up][up]Sorry, but it's the first time I tried to make a trope link of whatever.

Alright, I know MOST people here are not interested (by most, I mean one, and by people, I mean 0dd1) in this show, but if anybody gets a chance, please watch "Pac to the future", an episode that not only shows why there is no classic Pac-man this time around, but it's so damn emotional, I couldn't help but feel sorry for Pac-man not staying in the past. Just give this a try when you see it or even if you have Disney XD.

my little brother loves the show, and from what i've seen, it's decent, but not something i'm interested in.

something in one of the episodes did catch my attention though: i think i heard Applejack's voice for one of the characters.

I thought Andrea Libman voices Pinky. I guess I was wrong.

Both are acceptable. Glad people remember this show exists, except no new episodes for a while. Can't even find any good episode clips/Full episodes on Youtube.

Welp, New episode aired today. "Driver's Pac" is the name. Hope somebody else catches new episodes besides me.

I dunno, watching the first episode of this, I really want to know what people are seeing in this. I mean, I have to admit that at first, I was excited. I mean, video game cartoons aren't really a common thing these days, so maybe they've learned how to do one properly since then. And hey, the got the writers from Freakazoid involved, so it has to be good, right?

And then they made Pac-Man say "Oh, no, I'm a meme!" A lot of the jokes were just about as bad, honestly, but that was the point where I closed the video and never looked back. What I'm saying is that Earthworm Jim doesn't really have much competition.

The show isn't great, but it is fun and the story arc more entertaining than the Pole Position cartoon![lol]. I say, try to find something worth keeping up with within the show. Just be glad it's not Qbert the cartoon.

There was a Pole Position cartoon? How do you even do that?

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

Saw an ep. The one where the ghosts trick Pac into eating too much, so he won't have the energy to fight back.

...it's not that bad a show! I'm miffed that they turned Pacman into a preteen who goes to school and is Totally Radical, and the 4 main ghosts are now kind of good guys, but the animation looks nice and it's harmless.

I like to think that this is Pac-man's son, who he lazily named Pac-man, too. Or it's another dimension, but still, not bad, just fuggin' boring at times. Plus, there hasn't been any new episodes since his Jinxed episode.

In terms of an animated cable TV show, that's not too long a break. I know of a lot of shows that take breaks form 8 months at most! It's all what the network wants to do.

Still, it shouldn't take that long to animate a Pac-man 3D model, unless, like in the past Pac-man World games, they're going pixle by pixle, polygon by polygon. Then it would make sense how long they take to get the episode finished.

Just popping in to say i Enjoy this show as it actually turned Pacman's premise into a co-coherent narrative that used the familiar elements of the game well. Very surprising.

[up][up][up]Aaaaaand I'm saying... the production schedule of a cartoon has nothing to do with the schedule of a network. A network likes to have most of the show done before they even start airing it, but they can just air all the episodes out of order, or even years after one another, for no reason other than their own. It could take a few days to model and animate a Pac-man character, but the network is never dependent on that.

Anyway, I was shocked to see that the two people responsible for developing this for television are Tom Ruegger and Paul Rugg, from Animaniacs! .... this show does not have their trademark clever jokes! What happened?!

They wrote the pilot. That ep was similarly cliche and standard. It DID set up the universe and the premise though, so it was enjoyable.
