So what is you favorite seasons of The Raccoons, we have talked about favorite specials before, I thought I do one for the series, which I do think is better than the specials, it is the anti My Little Pony in which the specials to the TV series.
Anyway The Raccoons is a show that got better each season. Season 5 might be my favorite, each season is more development for Cyril. I do think the additon Lisa and Bentley as regulars were a great addition. I do miss Sophia, they could have made it work with her. But really some of my favorite episodes like "Stress Test", "Movin In", "Black Belt Bentley", "Join The Club" and of course the darkest episode ever "The One That Got Away".
I did mention Cyril's development, and the addition of Lisa and Bentley, they connect in a way, Cyril having his bonding moments with them who similar to Toph with Zuko and Iroh, they didn't know Cyril in his early days, so they see him in fresh eyes.
Though season 4 and 2 are close behind.

I'd say 2 or 3. The "new" Raccoons did not overpower the original cast yet, but they were still involved (mostly Bentley). Both the Lougheed versions of songs (despite what Jon Stroll thinks) and Susan Roman as Melissa were in place.

Yeah it's interesting how Cyril is not as hostile or defensive when it comes to the "new" Raccoons. He even calls them by name, which the original three rarely got the honor of. Your explanation does give some insight as to why the relationship there is different. |

Yeah it's interesting how Cyril is not as hostile or defensive when it comes to the "new" Raccoons. He even calls them by name, which the original three rarely got the honor of. Your explanation does give some insight as to why the relationship there is different. Well I always believed of what Lisa and Bentley were and who they replaced. I know it was 3 seasons later, but they were Julie and Tommy's replacement. I think what Kevin Gillis original intention for those characters were to be the kid perspective character, and they just didn't fit for obvious reasons, (though their best usage was in The Christmas Raccoons, they actually felt like part of the story, after that, it was there were in an alternative story I don't know what happened, they just interactive with The Raccoons characters) anyway Kevin finally was able to get that with Lisa and Bentley. Right down to the older sister /younger brother dynamic, though ironically I do think Bentley is closer to Julie's age. Of course, does put into question Bert's age and how how in her introductory episode Burt had a crush on Lisa. Yet you get the impression he and Ralph grew up together. I agree I prefer the songs post season 2, once Lisa Loughead as the female singer and Susan Roman as Melissa Roman as Melissa. Also the pigs became more like Cyril's other dumb kids than his employees which made the show better to me. |
