Amazingly refreshing!

So Baloo found that time travel bathtub after all? Either that, or he, Louie, and Rebecca went off in a rented plane to find a lost city/lost artifact and became lost themselves. Kit and Molly were raised by Wildcat, which would explain a lot.

I can see Karnage's grandson, who had failed aspirations to be on Broadway, carrying on the family legacy.

In that vein, Karnage was more apt to have Kit's storyline. "All I wanted was to sing! To dance! But everyone expected me to be a pirate... *sniff*"

A time machine indeed! (bathtub... I see what you did there XD) Kit would be about 96 years old (and still flying!) "present day," but perhaps Ducktales is neglecting that since TaleSpin avoided ever putting its date on the screen. It is intented to be 1937, though... can't prove it on screen but it does say so in some production material I have.

This is off tangent, but on the matter of the show's unseen timeline, the same material says the age to get a pilot's license in TS's world is 16. I've infered this to mean Kit was 11 in P&L (five more years to get a license) and would have had a birthday somewhere in the course of the series. But the show's not exactly known for its continuity, is it.

What an interesting family that would be...

Makes sense that TS was set in 1937 with the Great War ending twenty years before.

The shows of yesteryear seemed to have more stand alone episodes instead of the continuity/story arcs of today's shows. Made 'em more syndication friendly, I'm assuming?
