According to the current issue of
Animation Magazine, DIC Entertainment is going to be reviving their bionic crime fighter for a brand new show to premier in early
2009.
Inspector Gadget has had many spin-offs and reincarnations since the original show began in the early 1980's. (
Gadget Boy,
2 live action films,
Gadget & the Gadgetinis, a
CGI feature...)


The new show will have many of the original characters intact such as Penny, Brain, Chief Quimby and Dr. Claw. Complete with
klutz comedy but with more of a
darker edge.
The series will have a design style that will lean more towards
anime and the direction will be more
cinematic with unique camera
angles and
dramatic musical cues.

If all goes smoothly,
Inspector Gadget will be hitting airwaves with
52 half-hours next spring!
