Reb00t 1t - Ducktales Season 3

We’re back to the third and final season of the reboot of Ducktales, the show has been batting a really high average, most of the episodes have been great, with some real standout ones like The Last Crash of the Sunchaser! Whatever happened to Della Duck! And Raiders of the Doomsday Vault! To name a few. The show has established a vast world with a ton of supporting characters and given the antagonists a level of depth beyond simply hating scrooge. Even if they’re still over-the-top villain archetypes.

Mark Beaks has very little interest in Scrooge really, he’s mostly just a shewed but lazy tech businessman with a particular interest in Gizmoduck. He someone how managed to reclaim his company after Glomtales, maybe it was just his on-paper money he put into Glomgold’s scheme. Magika has been reduced to a wreck without her powers, and whilst still maniacally evil and hating Scrooge seems content to bide her time and get her powers back first. Glomgold was always meant to be a reflection of Scrooge and The Balad of Duke Baloney! Did a good job in realising that to its fullest whilst keeping his core attributes in-tact. Oh and the Beagle Boys and Ma Beagle have an interesting family dynamic and their beef with Scrooge is interesting.

But with season 3, we have Bradford Buzzard and F.O.W.L., easily the most effective and successful antagonists for the show. Magika had a plan of sorts that came to fruition throughout the season, but FOWL’s is a bit more intricate and complex and otherwise connects episodes they had nothing to do with.

And who better to solve a massive conspiracy and the resident nerd of the Duck triplets, Huey. Huey has been show to be smart, logical, efficient but also the least stable. When something challenges his perception of reality, he’s the first to completely break down. This happened a few times, when Dewey ended up favoured over him in The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks! And his interactions with Bubba Duck in Timephoon! To name a couple.

Let’s dive into season 3 and see how things progress.

Reb00t 1t - Ducktales Season 2

Time to take a look at the second season of Ducktales. In season one, Dewey got the bulk of the spotlight, but for season 2, the torch is passed to Louie. What will his character bring to the fold? Let’s take a look and find out.

Reb00t 1t - Ducktales Season 1

My history with the original Ducktales series is pretty limited but I watched the Treasure of the Lost Lamp and know the basic premise and some of the history. I was more a looney tunes than a Mickey Mouse guy growing up but in older age, I have grown to appreciate the wit of the Disney staple of characters as well.

But to business, Ducktales had a reboot, so welcome to Reb00t 1t

And because I’d rather not do another massive 50–100-episode retrospective I’m breaking this down by season. The Ducktales reboot premiered in 2016 and ran for 3 seasons, its finale airing in 2020. The show was a hit for Disney, making the rare jump from DisneyXD to the main Disney Channel, and has even found a life outside of the show with YouTube podcasts.

The show is primarily comedic, so we’re gonna glance over story developments that aren’t worthy of critique or contribute to character development. I may sum up some episodes in a couple of lines but I’ll give an overview of all the seasons, and break down episodes that I think are interesting or contribute to the shows overarching plot. We’ll be covering this in the intended Disney+ Order and not the original airing order.
