Animation Source Forums

This was originally a posted topic by another fellow named "Balto." I'm now reviving this old topic due to the fact that i thought this topic was too good to pass up now that the original topic is locked. Here's what "Balto." had said:

I think it would great because i love balto, but i think the shows would be hard to think of.
if they were going to do it they should do it using balto 3 charaters i think


ME: I've also added a poll for you to vote what you think

No, I don't think Balto should have a T.V. show. The way I look at it that would never happen, seeing as how the moves were never overly popular. Besides, Universal shut down their animation studio, so it would never happen anyway...I'm just looking at this realistically. Even if it was possible, I would still say no.

Well, that's what the poll is for vote "NO"

Even if it was possible/had a logical way of happening, I'd say no. There's no need for a "Balto" tv series. (I actually hate tv shows that are spin offs of movies, half are just horrid. -.-) Besides, the movies didn't sell enough to make this an attractive idea.

eh it depends on how the story line is.

On what, exactly? If you are going to throw out something like that, you have to be more specific.

I think they should. Why?

1) Cuz people love the crap out of dogs, that's why the real Balto was so popular in the first place.

2) Because the fandom is already as low as it can get, may as well squeeze any money they can out of it like they did with Land Before Time.

3) Gives opportunity to tie off any loose ends, even if it's only a couple episodes long, but at that point people will shut up about stupid things like "KODI LOVES DUSTY" and "STEELE IS DEAD" and "MY VERSION OF BALTO'S OFFSPRING ARE BETTER" and "JESUS LOVES MY OC MORE THAN YOURS".

Way to cut it down to the bare essentials there, WB.

However, that is sound reasoning.

I'd say actually a cross of no and yes mainly no because its highly doubtable it will be crappy like BATB(Back at the barnyard) for example was crappy because they had a deadline. it would be good if it was a movie. and i doubt a balto 4

Try not to use words like "crappy". That's very low-brow, and some people might take offense to it. Thanks.

After watching Balto 3 it was obvious they had run out of ideas. Which is quite sad. I think that making a TV series is not a good idea, the show would quite likely be on the boring side because the makers wouldn't know what to have the show about.

well i haven't watch the third balto movie ever so if you say that they shouldn't then i guess i strongly agree with you all.

You should probably see it first, then. This topic really has little to do with the third movie specifically, which is MUCH better than the second one, as most Balto fans would agree.
