DuckTales (2017–2021)
Woo-oo! This is how you Reboot! (Spoilers)
12 August 2017
Warning: Spoilers
The small details, Scrooge McDuck is so cheap he still uses a flip-phone. The cameo of Roxanne, Max's Girlfriend from "A Goofy Movie" the heart of the story is the same.

They've updated the boys to give them a more modern "feel" which is how you connect with the kids. Huey, Dewey, and Luey are the characters kids see the show through, so you give them modern cartoon humor. Scrooge McDuck and Donald are the same (which is who the adults are watching through). The adventure in the first episode is witty, there is actual depth. Instead of pure adventure, you see Dewey early on overhearing Scrooge say family is nothing but trouble, then in part two we see Dewey try and get past the booby traps alone. He's learning to trust his uncle, and his uncle learns to teach the boys, rather than just let them tag along.

The humor for adults and kids are on point. Adults who grew up with "Ducktales" (1987- 1990) and kids today will love it and watch it together.
