Though you might not be too happy to see the digital remake of the classic cartoon, this new trailer shows us that the same type of humor and adventures are still involved! Plus, the story itself is a bit of a continuation of the original series. According to Slash Film, the Inspector is retired but gets called back to duty by Quimby because Dr. Claw and M.A.D. are stirring up more trouble. Plus, a new character named Talon comes into play, as Claw's nephew and Penny's love interest! That's something, right?
It looks like Netflix is taking this reboot very seriously, too.
"It's one of those shows where we're able to hit a few different audiences," Eric Barmack, VP of global independent content at Netflix said in a press release announcing the series. "We think that kids are going to love the show ... but it's also going to get some co-viewing because there is a generation of parents who grew up on the original."
