Toei Animation?

[edit]

Wait a minute! Someone just posted on the article that the animation was produced by Toei Animation Co. Ltd. I am not sure if this is entirely true. Unlike the Littles' sister shows Inspector Gadget and Heathcliff and the Catillac Cats, The Littles did NOT credit the overseas animation studio. However, a few scenes do remind me of G.I. Joe in terms of animation, but this is only in a couple of them. The rest of the series appears to have been animated by TMS Entertainment. I know this because TMS did the majority of animation for DiC's shows in the 1980s (with some exceptions, such as the second seasons of Inspector Gadget and Heathcliff). I definitely recall several scenes in The Littles resembling the animation in Lupin the Third, Tiny Toon Adventures and The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, all of which were animated by TMS at one point. Can anyone please confirm this? --Wile e2005 (talk) 18:46, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Challenger

[edit]

Some trivia: In the "The Wrong Stuff" episode from the third season, the Littles were on a shuttle. It was going to burn up in the atmosphere if Dinky didn't return a chip he took. The episode aired some months before the Challenger disaster. Isn't that kind of ironic?84.22.2.204 (talk) 00:01, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Writing style and missing information

[edit]

The overall style of the article needs work. Two fine examples - the description of the villains in the series: Dr.Hunter and Peterson described as "the bad guy in the series" and "the other bad guy". Those two characters are in the Villain-section of the article so to explicitly specify that they are bad (and in such poor writing manner) does not give any additional information. Another thing is that although they are the main villains in the series they are not the only one. There are ancient Egyptians, rats, Henry's bike-club mates (they can be considered as such since for the greater part in the episode they appeared they were "bad"). So it is a good idea to either specify that Dr.Hunter and Peterson are the main villains (where Peterson is more of a background-character and the fact that he is just an assistand proves it) or to add the fact that there are episodic villains and maybe give some examples. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.115.98.85 (talk) 10:37, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
