Goof Troop was among the shows in the wonderful lineup that was Disney Afternoon, a staple of many growing up in the 1980s to 19990s. Featuring the classic Disney characters, Pete and Goofy and their families, this was the first animated Disney sit-coms instead of the usual adventure-based story lines, though with the show's lineup, there was certainly adventure of the goofy kind!Admittedly I didn't pay as much attention to Goof Troop as much as I did with Darkwing Duck, I have grown to appreciate the show now more in my thirties. Along with the engaging characters, the show is very well animated with few flubs that I can see. A recommendation to anyone seeking something lighter to watch!

It seems that at the very moment Scooby-Doo hit the TV screens, a lot of ugly depressing trends were all set to go. Amongst them, the fact that every successful show and / or character always had to have a "parent-and-kid" sequel. Let's see: there's "Poopy-Poo and Crappy-Poo", "Captain Lameman and Son" (but no Teen Angels...), Popeye and Son (a prime example of cartoon blasphemy), and probably a lot more I haven't heard of...... and Goof Troop.What's wrong with this show ? Jesus ! Where do I start ?The art ? Perhaps one of the ugliest kinds of animation I have ever seen. The characters have no clear poses or facial expressions, and the frame rate is very awkward. The backgrounds have really crappy colors too. And way too much pink, purple, blue and orange. Ew ! The voices ? Aaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhh !!! They just make my ears bleed. Sometimes you can't even understand what the characters are saying ! The stories ? What stories ? The dialogue ? If you want to hear all the flaws of cartoon-scriptwriting summed in every single episode (lame puns, inappropriate lines for most of the characters), this show is for you. The musical scores ? They sound even worse than the worst musical scores for "Animaniacs" or any post-"Flintstones" Hanna-Barbera show. The sound effects and sound design ? Again, blame it on Scooby-Doo. And last but not least : the staging ? There's no staging at all in here ! All the scenes seem to drag along, and you can feel that they stretched them a lot so they could make every episode last 20 minutes.I think I don't need to say anything else about it. It's really god-awful.PS. If, however, you do really want to take a peek, you can watch the following episodes : "Everything's Coming Up Goofy", "Pete's Day At The Races", "Wrecks, Lies and Videotape", "Incredible Bulk", and "Date With Destiny". These ones are still watchable. Also, you can always listen to the french dub. I have to say, the voices are excellent in this one, for a change.

Goof Troop in my book is super funny, and super entertaining! Goofy is a comic knucklehead and a great cartoon actor. So is Pete. When Pete and Goofy collide, it's chaos and laughs all the way! Goofy is a stay-at-home bachelor. His son is Max. Goofy and Max lived next door with a swindling, short-tempered car-salesman named Pete. His wife is Peg. Every time when Pete does something wrong, she would respond by telling him to do the right thing (even if she has to yell at him) Pete calls her "Honey-bear" or any cute name just to show how much he loves his wife. He and Peg has two kids, PJ and Pistol. PJ is Max's best friend. Pistol is PJ's highly energetic and adorable sister. Each neighbor has a pet. Goofy and Max's pet is a cat named Waffles. Pete, Peg, PJ, and Pistol's pet is a dog named Chainsaw. I love this show so much I hope it comes out on a DVD box-set! Good job for Goof Troop! You rock! 10000000000000000000000000000000000000+/10

I used to watch reruns of this TV show because I enjoyed "A Goofy Movie," of which this is a spin-off. Farmer returns to the voice of Goofy and essentially this show was just about him and his son Max (who was also in "A Goofy Movie").The humor is not going to appeal to adults as much as children, although there are occasionally pop-culture references that older viewers will pick up on. There were also some celebrity cameos such as Jimmy Stewart and younger viewers most certainly would not recognize his voice.Overall if you enjoyed "A Goofy Movie" it is likely that you will like this show, also - but it is not as good or fresh as the film.
