    I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

    Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

    This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

    This is a cartoon show based on the comic strip, where a naive and inquisitive boy named Dennis Mitchell, dressed in overalls and constantly yelling "Heyyyy, Mr. Willllson!" tries to befriend everybody and help out with stuff, but always ends up in mischief or in a sea of misadventures - particular driving his neighbor, George Wilson, crazy.Overall, it's a funny little innocent cartoon that is full of that childhood innocence and some slapstick comedy. I used to watch it when I was a kid - a nice little show to pass the time. It's not the funniest or greatest cartoon I've seen, but its innocence and good old fashion childish fun and dialog make it quite entertaining to a little kid.Grade B-

    One morning back in 1987, while I was home on leave (I was in the Navy stationed overseas and I was back stateside for some leave), I was up early one morning armed with the TV Guide and I saw "Dennis the Menace" listed.Thinking it was the old TV series from the 1950s that I grew up watching, I decided to check it out, only to discover that it was a new cartoon series.What I thought would be a disappointment turned out to be a pleasant surprise! The series was actually more true to Hank Ketcham's great comic strip than the old black & white series. Actually, the old black & white series was not true to the comic strip because the PTA, which was a pretty powerful force to deal with, managed to reduce "Dennis the Menace" to more of a "Dennis the good boy whose good intentions somehow went haywire". The artwork of the cartoon series was true to Hank Ketcham's style. And the animation was very good, which was unusual for a TV cartoon of the time. Being a cartoon, the writers had a lot more leeway and were free to allow Dennis to be as much of a menace as he was originally intended to be.This series is not only entertaining for children of all ages, but is also entertaining for the child that still lurks in every grown up as well.

    The animated television series of Dennis the Menace was very good. I'd watch it whenever I could when it was on in the 1980s. The animation was very good and clear. The voices were good for the characters and the characters were also very good and funny. The late great comedian Phil Hartman was a good pick and he was funny! The music was good and fit the cartoon. The stories in the cartoons were good. It was interesting and fun to watch. If you are able to watch this on television or on tape do so because this was one of the great animated shows of the 1980s in My opinion! I recommend it!Movie Nuttball's NOTE:If you like Dennis the Menace then check out the 1993 feature film starring Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Walter Matthau, Joan Plowright, Mason Gamble, Arnold Stang, and Paul Winfield! The musical score is composed greatly by Jerry Goldsmith! I strongly recommend the film!

    dennis the menace was a great 80s cartoon. and it brings back memories for me. i remember having to wait until 3 o'clock when all my mom's soap operas were over, before i could watch cartoons on the big tv, and right at 3 o'clock, this one was the one i went to. i enjoyed the cartoon a lot. it was very funny and had many good plots. if you're a cartoon lover like me, you'll love this one!
