Animated Adaptation | comment |
Despite its long-standing reputation as something "for kids", animation is an extremely versatile visual medium. While animation can tell almost any kind of story, its greatest strength is that it can portray stories with relative ease that would be prohibitively expensive and/or extremely difficult (if not impossible) to pull off convincingly in live action. For that reason, animation is an ideal medium for portraying stories with fantastic elements, and many of the world's oldest and most enduring medium that predates film contain at least some elements of the fantastic. So it's hardly any wonder that many existing stories, whatever their origins, have been given the animation treatment. The Animated Adaptation has been around almost as long as modern animation itself: the first major animated feature was based on a well-known fairytale, and almost all major Western feature-length animated films were based on existing ideas until the late 1990s to early 2000s, when original animated features started to gain prominence. Keep in mind, however, that "adaptation" doesn't necessarily mean faithful adaptation. As with the Live-Action Adaptation, animated adaptations often take liberties with their source material — sometimes to the point of being nigh unrecognizable. Likewise, animation made for television has a rich history of adapting stories and characters from other mediums — comic strips and books such as Popeye, Superman and Batman being prime examples. The same is true of Japan; as often as not, the hot new anime of each season is more than likely based off manga or light novels. However, one particularly bizarre trend began back in The '70s: animation studios such as Filmation and Hanna-Barbera would develop animated versions of live-action television shows such as Star Trek: The Original Series, Laverne & Shirley, and Gilligan's Island. Most of these shows are (not unfairly) remembered for being little more than fairly cheaply animated retreads of popular sitcoms, albeit with sillier, more outlandish plots. There were exceptions, though — Star Trek: The Animated Series was an official continuation of its source series, and even involved most of the original cast and writers. For a video game-specific example of this trope, see The Anime of the Game. Compare and contrast Live-Action Adaptation. In anime, which is frequently adapted from manga, the opposite of this is Anime First. |

Ultimate Spider-Man is loosely adapted from the comic book with the same name while using some elements from the 616 and Marvel Cinematic Universes. Aiming for a more comedic tone than its predecessors, the series tries its best to put a different spin on all the old characters and try to bring in something new. | |

The Smurfs: Adaptation Displacement means that few in North America are aware of the original Franco-Belgian Comics by Peyo. In addition to the Hanna-Barbera series, there are several animated Belgian shorts produced in the 1960s, a Belgian feature film in 1976 (La Flûte à six schtroumpfs, later dubbed to English and released in the United States in 1983 as The Smurfs and the Magic Flute), and animated features co-produced by Sony Pictures Animation and Duck Studios (The Smurfs: A Christmas Carol and The Smurfs: The Legend of Smurfy Hollow). And there's the current 2021 CGI-animated series that is broadcast on Nickelodeon. | |

The 1973-75 animated version of The Addams Family put them on the road in a cross between an RV and their Victorian mansion. There was another version in the 1990s, which was essentially a continuation of the then-recent movies.

Darkstalkers was mangled into something unrecognizable when adapted for American Saturday morning TV. The 13-episode series was about Pyron awakening and hiring Demitri, Morrigan, and several other characters to help him take over the world, while Felicia—now an ancient woman in a cat costume—seeks the help of/lives with a 13-year-old geek/wizard in training named Harry Grimoire. The characters in the series looked and acted much less like their in-game counterparts, and all fights between the monsters involved shooting lasers from their hands. The female characters also had much less revealing costumes. This YouTube video sums it up pretty well. | |

Troll dolls inspired multiple separate adaptations under different licenses. First was the The Magic Trolls and the Troll Warriors, then came Trollz, which kept the magic fight against evil but shifted the setting to a modern world while also making the focus on a cast of girls. Then came the CGI movie simply called Trolls by DreamWorks, which characterizes trolls as forest dwelling beings who live a carefree lifestyle singing pop songs. This got a series on Netflix that went on for eight short seasons before the movie got a sequel that expanded the lore by introducing tribal subspecies who prefer different genres of music, which will also get its own series on Peacock. A third movie is set to release in 2023. | |

Disney Animated Canon: Aladdin: The Series (which replaced Robin Williams with Dan Castellaneta as the voice of the Genie. Castellaneta actually played the Genie character on the episode of The Simpsons which Bart befriended a Muslim boy and Homer fears that the boy and his family are terrorists) The Little Mermaid: Animated Series The Lion King has two: Timon & Pumbaa, which compared to the rest of them had little to do with the first film besides shared characters (a couple of episodes even had a cartoon focused on Rafiki or the three hyenas from the movie [Shanzai — with Tress MacNeille as Shanzai in place of Whoopi Goldberg — Banzai, and Ed]), and The Lion Guard, which is actually canonical to the franchise (taking place within the Time Skip of the second film). Hercules: The Animated Series (notable for featuring nearly all the main cast of the movie, and one of the most impressive list of celebrity guest stars to star in a Saturday morning cartoon). Buzz Lightyear of Star Command — a Defictionalization of the Show Within a Show that the toy from Toy Story was based on. The Legend of Tarzan 101 Dalmatians has two: 101 Dalmatians: The Series and 101 Dalmatian Street The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Jungle Cubs and TaleSpin. Lilo & Stitch: The Series, Stitch!, and Stitch & Ai. Yes, three for one franchise, and all were made within the span of just 15 years from the first film's debut. (Although, the latter two series are actually spin-offs primarily made for the foreign countries where they were produced; only the first one definitively follows the original film.) Tangled: The Series Big Hero 6: The Series Disney has plans for shows based on Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella and Atlantis: The Lost Empire, but these shows never made it past the pilot episode. The episodes in question were eventually released on DVD and billed as direct-to-video sequels. |

Just in time for Superman's 50th anniversary in 1988, viewers were given Ruby-Spears Superman. While the series lasted only a single season, it was notable for drawing on elements of the Post-Crisis comics, no doubt in part because writer Marv Wolfman served as story editor for the series. | |

Mega Man (Classic) had an animated series by Ruby-Spears that aired from 1994 to 1995. The character designs were modified from the original art and took some liberties with the source material (particularly with Proto Man's allegiance, who was one of Mega Man's allies in the game, became Dr. Wily's primary henchman on the show). There was also a 3-part OVA, in a separate continuity, that did use the original artwork. It was mainly used to provide basic information about Japanese culture. | |

Another series, more comedic in tone, began airing in 2013: Teen Titans Go!. Go! is even lighter than the earlier Teen Titans, to the extent that there's an episode in which Dr. Light — yes, that Dr. Light — performs a temporary Heel–Face Turn and has tea with Raven and Starfire before the boys show up belatedly and give him a reason to start hating the Titans all over again. Go! also received two movies: Teen Titans Go! To the Movies and Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans. | |

Almost every generation of My Little Pony has had one of these. G1 had a couple of TV specials, a a movie (which like the Transformers movie served the purpose of introducing the upcoming toyline), a series that picked up after the movie, and a animated series in a different continuity. G2 interestingly had no Animated Adaptation, just a video game. G3 & G3.5 had several direct to DVD movies & shorts. G4 of course has the absurdly popular series in 2010 was My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, though oddly enough most of the toy characters did not actually appear in the show. G5 has the film My Little Pony: A New Generation. |

The Dukes of Hazzard as The Dukes, though the General Lee did gain a few wacky Knight Rider meets Inspector Gadget abilities it never had in the live-action show. And Uncle Jesse was left at home and started a relationship with a raccoon. Produced the year that Tom Wopat and John Schnider walked off the show, the first season featured cousins Coy and Vance, the second season featuring Bo and Luke. All of the original actors provided their voices. (Wopat, who like many of the cast and many TV critics felt the live-action scripts often left something to be desired, said the cartoon had better writing than the nighttime show!) | |

For reasons nobody can defend — much less fathom — Roseanne Barr Pentland Arnold Terwilliger Thomas was given a Saturday morning cartoon in the early 1990s called Little Rosie. It wasn't based on her TV show, rather it was apparently based on her childhood and gave her magical adventures. Or something, it's not like those who saw it wanted to spend time admitting it. | |

The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan, though it's a very loose adaptation of the Charlie Chan films (it was tailored more to fit Hanna-Barbera's "meddling kids" genre that was so popular in the 1970s). Though it did feature Keye Luke from the Oland films as the voice of Mr. Chan. | |

Scream of the Shalka was intended to be the start of a continuation of the series, which at the time was still technically on hiatus. It didn't work, and the new series relegated it to Canon Discontinuity. The same people who animated it also worked on making animated versions of the missing episodes of The Invasion and did the same with The Reign of Terror. | |

This was also done to The Three Musketeers in Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds. Apart from the punny names, some slight Bowdlerization and the characters being animals, they were straight retellings of the plots from the books. | |

James Bond, though they, at least, had the good sense to forgo the hard-drinking, womanizing spy with a license to kill for his teenaged "nephew", James Bond Jr., who operated out of an English boarding school and went on Jonny Quest-esque adventures armed with gadgets made by his Gadgeteer Genius friend, I.Q. The role of "M" was taken by the school headmaster, who would remonstrate with young James over the chaos his escapades inevitably caused, and Miss Moneypenny was replaced by a fellow student with a crush on James. And they still managed to keep the concept of a new girl every adventure going, in a G-rated way of course. Note that most of the films themselves are considered suitable for family viewing in the United Kingdom, so an animated version isn't that far-out an idea. | |

Stargate SG-1, transposed centuries into the future but without substantial change to the premise as Stargate Infinity, although it is officially considered not part of the canon the other Stargate shows are in. With good reason, since none of the races from the official Stargate-verse appear in it (for one thing), unless you buy the claims that Draga is an Ancient. Given that in the canonical Stargate Verse, the Ancients are biologically all-but-identical to humans and not 7-foot-tall anthropomorphic dragonflies at all, the call is yours to make. | |

Gilligan's Island The Professor finally managed to use Bamboo Technology to get the gang off the island. By fixing the boat? Nope. He built a space ship out of bamboo, and promptly got the gang stranded on Gilligan's Planet. Before Gilligan's Planet, there was The New Adventures of Gilligan, an animated adaptation of Gilligan's Island featuring plots that were just like those of Gilligan's Island, only dumber. Oh, and Gilligan had a pet monkey named Stubby. |

The Garbage Pail Kids trading cards had an animated series consisting of 13 episodes that was planned to air on CBS until complaints from Moral Guardians resulted in the show being locked away for years until it was finally made available to the public via DVD. The show's premise was about five Garbage Pail Kids (Split Kit, Patty Putty, Elliot Mess, Terri Cloth, and Clogged Duane) hanging out and fighting crime, with additional segments including movie parodies, Garbage Pail Awards, bulletins warning of pests as if they were wanted criminals, and Parody Commercials. | |

Highlander: The Animated Series (with yet another McLeod). Set on a post-apocalyptic Earth, though this would probably not count as a substantial mangling of the original premise if not for the fact that, being children's television, the entire aspect of decapitation was removed. Except for the Big Bad, the other immortals served as Plot Coupons that the protagonist needed to find, so they could pass on their Quickenings to him — willingly. The fact that the new McLeod was immortal did not end up coming up much, since they couldn't even show him momentarily-dying. There were, however, a few off-screen deaths that someone familiar with the series could identify as decapitations, including that of Connor McLeod himself. | |

Along with The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! aired The Legend of Zelda (1989), based in the Hyrule of the first two games in the The Legend of Zelda series. It became notorious (and the Trope Namer) for Link's obnoxious catchphrase, "Well, Excuse Me, Princess!" — people who experienced it back when it was new tend to enjoy it more than people who became fans because of the later games. Also, the Captain N: The Game Master episode "Quest for the Potion of Power" was largely based on Zelda II. | |

Batman: Batman: The Animated Series is the most successful and high quality example of the Animated Adaptation. It spawned seven in-continuity spin-off shows that lasted from the early 1990s right through to the early 21st century, as well as computer games and movies. It kept the Danny Elfman theme, some of the character designs and all of the tone of Tim Burton's movies (though not quite to Burton-levels of darkness), but took place in an Alternate Continuity. It also originally placed a moratorium on death, although this was relaxed for the spin-off movies and the rest of the DC Animated Universe in general, including The New Batman Adventures. Also, several characters were popular enough to become Canon Immigrants to the mainstream DC Universe, most famously Harley Quinn. It has also forever burned the voices of Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill into the minds of everyone that grew up in the 1990s and 2000s as the voices of Batman and The Joker... You'd think after The Dark Knight Trilogy, DC may have tried to get new voices for the characters, but both returned to their roles in Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, and rather than Christian Bale voicing Batman in Batman: Gotham Knight, The Dark Knight tie-in Direct-to-Video movie, guess who played Batman instead? (Though this had more to do with both Nolan and Bale's disapproval of the animated tie-in, simply because it was "for kids" and "a tie-in", despite getting the same MPAA rating as the movies.) Additionally, there have been The Batman and Batman: The Brave and the Bold, the latter of which was well received for being a Lighter and Softer alternative to the darker Batman stories, while also including a copious amount of in-jokes for hardcore fans. Beware the Batman began airing in 2013, and has a Darker and Edgier tone closer to the '90s series and The Dark Knight Trilogy. Long before these, however, there were multiple Batman series in the 60s and 70s including The Batman/Superman Hour, The Adventures of Batman, and The New Adventures of Batman, although the latter was more of a direct adaptation of the live-action Batman. There are also a number of standalone animated films that exist largely in separate continuity from one another which include: Superman/Batman: Public Enemies and Apocalypse, Batman: Under the Red Hood, Batman: Year One, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, the Batman Unlimited films, Batman: Assault on Arkham, and Batman: The Killing Joke. The DC Animated Movie Universe is a Shared Universe that, while later diverging of this path, initially acted as this for the New 52 and Batman (Grant Morrison). |

You might think that the animated series Mighty Ducks: The Animated Series had something to do with the movies. It did but not much, it was instead about an entirely different team with the same name... a team of super-powered anthropomorphic ducks who fight aliens with hockey-themed gadgets. This all came about because of the first film being very successful which led to Disney creating the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (now the Anaheim Ducks) ice hockey team and then making an animated series tenuously related to the team. In that order. | |

Clerks was remade as Clerks: The Animated Series by Kevin Smith and a team of capable writers and artists. Although it featured no space travel or wacky animal characters, it was intentionally a massive departure from the movie and featured numerous elements of fantasy (including Blofeld-like villains and evil Egyptian slave drivers). Sadly, it was Screwed by the Network (Smith claimed it would be cancelled after two episodes. He was right). | |

The Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley, a short-lived late-1980s NBC cartoon series based off Martin Short's Ed Grimley character from SCTV and Saturday Night Live. Lives on as, aside from a Coneheads special that was never picked up as a series and a David S. Pumpkins special, the only animated adaptation of an SNL recurring character that most people remember (Ed Grimley was considered to be tame to be shown for kids. Can you imagine if they made an animated adaptation of Christopher Walken's Continental character note that is, besides in the form of Pepé Le Pew or Glenn Quagmire or Bill Hader's Stefon character note which probably would be okay for an adult audience, but not a kids' one?) Probably worth noting that NBC saw in Ed Grimley a chance at stealing Pee-Wee Herman's thunder. |

The early Mario games had three different adaptations, with a loose continuity among them (the second is named after Super Mario Bros. 3 and the third after Super Mario World). The Super Mario Bros. Movie is a CGI-animated adaptation of the series, co-produced by Nintendo and Illumination. It is a Continuity Reboot that completely dismisses the events of both the cartoons and the live-action movie, leaning far more closely to the modern Mario games. |

Most famously, they had a self-titled cartoon that ran for five successful seasons.

Back to the Future: The Animated Series focused on Doc Brown's family after the events in Back to the Future Part III, mainly his sons, Jules and Verne. They would often go on adventures through time and space via a rebuilt DeLorean and the time traveling train engine seen at the end of Part III. Marty McFly was still getting dragged along with them, and every time period, including ancient Rome, had an ancestor of Biff Tannen running around. The present-day Biff always got a small skit at the end of every episode. There were also live-action segments at the beginning and end featuring Christopher Lloyd as Docnote (he was dubbed over by Dan Castellaneta, who voiced the animated version) and Bill Nye as his assistant, which led to the creation of Nye's program Bill Nye the Science Guy. | |

The Sailor Moon manga has two distinct anime adaptations: Sailor Moon the 1992 anime of the same name that debuted within the year the manga began publishing, with ambitions of becoming a Cash-Cow Franchise. It was a large-scale Adaptation Expansion, drawing out the manga's 50+ chapters over 200+ episodes via Stock Footage, Padding and Filler Arcs while codifying several elements of the modern Magical Girl anime. It was so successful in its aims (and selling The Merch) that it spawned multimedia properties and even caused some Adaptation Displacement towards its parent manga. 2014's Sailor Moon Crystal seeks to be actively Truer to the Text of the source material, from the pacing adapting a chapter per episode, to a deliberate Art Shift in character design towards the long-limbed Noodle People aesthetic of the manga. It does pay tribute to its predecessor, by recreating its choreography and poses for Transformation Sequences and In the Name of the Moon speeches, both of which were codified in The '90s anime. |

Superman: The very first animated adaptation of Superman was a series of 7-10 minute shorts produced by the Fleisher studios in (and later Famous studios) in conjunction with Paramount from 1941 to 1943. While sparse on characterization, they were way ahead of their time with a style that influenced the Batman series 50 years later. The first installment, "The Mad Scientist" (also known as Superman no. 1) was nominated for an Academy Award for animated short subject. In 1966, another Superman animated series, The New Adventures of Superman, put Filmation on the map, and while hardly epic, serve as a very faithful adaptation of the Silver Age comics. Just in time for Superman's 50th anniversary in 1988, viewers were given Ruby-Spears Superman. While the series lasted only a single season, it was notable for drawing on elements of the Post-Crisis comics, no doubt in part because writer Marv Wolfman served as story editor for the series. Bruce Timm's Superman: The Animated Series is the most definitive adaptation, considering that many fans claimed it to be better than the other ones, and like its brother series, many character traits (Lois calling Clark "Smallville", for example) and many characters were integrated into the comics themselves. Like Batman, Superman has seen a number of animated movies, including Superman: Brainiac Attacks, the aformentioned Superman/Batman movies, All-Star Superman, Superman vs. the Elite, and Superman Unbound. |

The Lion King has two: Timon & Pumbaa, which compared to the rest of them had little to do with the first film besides shared characters (a couple of episodes even had a cartoon focused on Rafiki or the three hyenas from the movie [Shanzai — with Tress MacNeille as Shanzai in place of Whoopi Goldberg — Banzai, and Ed]), and The Lion Guard, which is actually canonical to the franchise (taking place within the Time Skip of the second film). | |

Red vs. Blue has a combination of regular machinima and animation (by the animator of Haloid). At a convention, Rooster Teeth screened an experimental short featuring the RvB guys animated in pencil-and-paper 2D, however in this Game Time with Monty Oum and Burnie, Burnie discusses the project, revealing that while Rooster Teeth still wrote the scripts for the adaption the animation was handled entirely by an outside company, and as such they felt like they didn't have enough control over the final project, leading to the animated series being cancelled. | |

Lanfeust: Lanfeust has a 26-episode All-CGI Cartoon series, loosely based on the manga version rather than the original comic, and thus Denser and Wackier. Its spin-off comic Trolls de Troy also has a 2D cartoon adaptation, with a big departure in art style and considerably more kid-friendly. |

The Spectacular Spider-Man is the first animated Spider-Man series to focus his time as a teenager in high school, as it was originally in the comics. The show is also widely considered an Adaptation Distillation as it stays true to the comics (through using a lot of elements from the original Spider-Man comics that were written by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko; the show brought in characters, story lines, and plot elements with a similar balance of action, drama and comedy as well as a high school setting) in addition to utilizing material from all eras of the comic's run and other sources such as the more recent the Ultimate Spider-Man comics and the Sam Raimi movies, making a Spider-Man cartoon that is popular and recognizable to both older and younger fans. | |

Star Trek: The Original Series had Star Trek: The Animated Series, which had much the same crew as the original but added a few more officers, including a feline officer and a three-armed helmsman. More importantly, not only were most of the original cast signed (budget prevented Walter Koenig from being included, but Gene Roddenberry made it up to him by allowing the actor to write an episode), but also many of the original writers, which meant stories that were at least largely true to the original series' spirit. (Both of these were written into the DC Star Trek comics, set in between the various movies, and have now been picked up by Peter David for his New Frontier book series.) The animated series was set before the movies but after (or perhaps during?) the Enterprise's original five year mission. Today, it stands the best example of such adaptations, which earned the franchise's first Emmy Award.TAS, as it's known in Trek fandom, is one of the few cases of Reverse Canon Discontinuity on record that does not involve an Expanded Universe. Paramount said for years that TAS is not in continuity; a large subsection of fans say that it is (with the exception of the material from Larry Niven's Known Space series that were included when Niven adapted one of his short stories into a script; fans are perfectly aware of the implications of allowing that into Trek canon). Some elements have made their way into canon, mostly some scripts written by the popular Original Series writer D.C. Fontana. This disagreement was made worse when certain things only referenced in TAS made it into episodes of Enterprise, thus placing those elements officially into canon. According to startrek.com, CBS, who acquired Paramount's television studio in 2005, now considers it fully canon thanks to a poll where fans overwhelmingly supported including it. | |

Godzilla: The Godzilla Power Hour, produced by Hanna-Barbara, best known for introducing the world to Godzooky Godzilla: The Series, based on the American movie. Worth noting that as much bile as the first American Godzilla (1998) movie gets heaped on it, even most haters will admit the cartoon spinoff was pretty good. Godzilla: Singular Point, which would be the first televised anime incarnation of the character. Chibi designs of Godzilla used in merchandising have found their way into animation, with Godzilland receiving educational OVAs in the 1990s while 2023's Chibi Godzilla Raids Again would be a series of absurdist gag-driven shorts starring the otherwise preschool focused incarnation of the character. |

Tintin: The first ones, produced in the 1950s-1960s by Belgian studio Belvision, kept almost none of the plots from the comics. Temple of the Sun is an amalgamation two albums from the same story arc, The Seven Crystal Balls and Temple of the Sun, by Belvision again. Tintin and the Lake of Sharks by Belvision is an original story. The Adventures of Tintin (1991) from French studio Ellipse and Canadian studio Nelvana was Truer to the Text and more of an Adaptation Distillation. The Adventures of Tintin (2011), the CGI film directed by Steven Spielberg, amalgamates The Crab with the Golden Claws, The Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham's Treasure. |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles made a household name out of what was once a bloody black-and-white self-published comic. The first cartoon from 1987, which first propelled the franchise to stardom. The Darker and Edgier 2003 cartoon, which was a much more faithful adaptation of the comics. The 2012 series, which features CGI animation and a more comedic tone than the 2003 series. The 2018 series, which notably returns to the traditional animated style, but is lighter and softer than its predecessor. |

By its sheer popularity it would seem natural that Touhou Project would have this, but ZUN refusing to give his support to any official adaptation has killed most expectations of one. The closest it got were some fanimes of extremely high quality, namely Musou Kakyou: A Summer Day's Dream and then later Fantasy Kaleidoscope and The Sealed Esoteric History. | |

The American Double Dragon cartoon was very loosely based on the original games (the Lee brothers were twins who were separated at birth, wore masks, and wielded beam-shooting swords despite being hand-to-hand martial artists in the games), although it did have a tie-in fighting game in the form of Double Dragon V: The Shadow Falls. | |

A more direct adaptation came in the 2016 direct-to-DVD film Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders, which is explicitly based off of the '60s show and had West, Ward, and Julie Newmar reprising their roles. A sequel came out in 2017 with William Shatner playing Two-Face, who was deemed too gruesome for the TV show. | |

Little Nemo: The Ur-Example, having a short film that came out in 1911. Not very plot-heavy and mostly consisted of Winsor McCay showing off the animation medium. For an animated "series" however, Emile Cohl's "The Newlyweds" (1913) is of note. It ran for 13 shorts, and sadly only one of them ("He Poses for His Portrait") survives; the rest had their negatives destroyed in a lab fire. |

Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, George Bush, Sr. and Ronald Reagan as The X-Presidents. The later episodes had Bill Clinton trying to join, despite having no superpowers and a wildly risque array of costumes and gadgets. |

The Little Rascals: Not a stand-alone animated show, but part of a 90-minute Animated Anthology with animated adaptations of Pac-Man and Richie Rich. A series of claymation specials was made in the 1960s, using the soundtracks of the original shorts. There was also a half hour Christmas Special that featured the voices of series' original stars Matthew "Stymie" Beard and the late Darla Hood. A series of Public Service Announcements followed. |

Spider-Man: The 1967 adaptation, which introduced the famous "Does whatever a spider can" theme song. The DePatie-Freleng Enterprises Spider-Woman that aired from 1979-1980. Spider-Man (1981), which was most famous for having him meet up with Doctor Doom repeatedly. Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, which aired around the same time as the above series, saw the webhead team up with Iceman and Firestar, and is much better-known nowadays. Spider-Man: The Animated Series was pretty much John Semper doing the best he could with horrible animation, censorship and Executive Meddling. Nonetheless, the series has remained the Spider-Man animated adaptation for many fans, with Christopher Daniel Barnes' portrayal of the character often considered one of the best. The Spectacular Spider-Man is the first animated Spider-Man series to focus his time as a teenager in high school, as it was originally in the comics. The show is also widely considered an Adaptation Distillation as it stays true to the comics (through using a lot of elements from the original Spider-Man comics that were written by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko; the show brought in characters, story lines, and plot elements with a similar balance of action, drama and comedy as well as a high school setting) in addition to utilizing material from all eras of the comic's run and other sources such as the more recent the Ultimate Spider-Man comics and the Sam Raimi movies, making a Spider-Man cartoon that is popular and recognizable to both older and younger fans. Ultimate Spider-Man is loosely adapted from the comic book with the same name while using some elements from the 616 and Marvel Cinematic Universes. Aiming for a more comedic tone than its predecessors, the series tries its best to put a different spin on all the old characters and try to bring in something new. Marvel's Spider-Man is yet another Spider-Man series following Spiderman Homecoming, a back-to-basic approach taking many cues from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and modern Spider-Man comics. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse makes many iterations collide, notably Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Ham. A sequel is set to release in two parts, one in 2022, the other in 2023. This one will add Spider-Man 2099, Spider-Woman and the Japanese Spider-Man in the mix, among others. |

The Incredible Hulk: The first came in 1966, as part of The Marvel Super Heroes. He's had two TV series dedicated to him (one in the 80's and one in the 90's) both Cut Short, though both series retain small but faithful fanbases. Since then, he has had multiple appearances in DTVs and other Marvel TV series since then, most prominently Hulk Vs., Planet Hulk, and The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. The most recent one, Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H., aired on Disney XD and ran for 2 seasons. | |

In the year 2000, PBS aired the appropriately titled Anne of Green Gables: The Animated Series. The show featured several regular characters borrowed from the live-action Road to Avonlea series (although both shows were made by Sullivan Entertainment, so they were basically using characters they created) and was pretty faithful to the original books, except that nearly every episode had a fantasy sequence with Anne (oh, and she had a wood nymph friend named Dryad). It's predated a tad by the Anne of Green Gables series by Nippon Animation from 1979. | |

The Harlem Globetrotters: Animated wackier exploits of the real-life basketball players: They travel to a remote area, get into a hostile situation with a group of individuals which is settled by challenging them to basketball games. The animated Globetrotters also guest-starred on three episodes of The New Scooby-Doo Movies. See the Emmy-nominated Futurama ep "Time Keeps on Slippin" for a parody. The Super Globetrotters: Five semi-real-life basketball sports entertainers gain super powers. Ludicrous super powers. Provided with info support by a basketball sputnik. In essence, The Super Globetrotters was a ripoff of H-B's 1966 superhero show The Impossibles. |

Jurassic Park had two failed attempts at animated series in the 90s. One has only a few stills left as evidence. The second was planned to tie in with the Chaos Effect toy line. A successful series finally released in 2021 with Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous.

In the early 90's a British animated series called The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends was made where each episode would feature stories based on the works of Beatrix Potter. Some episode are full length while others have two stories in one episode. They also had live-action wraparound segments portraying the story as one that Potter herself was preparing (and reading aloud to her pet rabbit Peter), complete with both prose and illustrations, and then mailing it out to someone. | |

Doctor Who: The BBCi Web site contains a few animated episodes and shorts. A mini-series broadcast on the tie-in show Totally Doctor Who at the same time as the revival's third series, "The Infinite Quest" featured David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones, likely set some point after Martha became a full-time companion mid-way through the series. An attempt was made by Canadian animation studio Nelvana in the 1990's to get an animated spin-off of Doctor Who off the ground, but they never got past concept art stages; it would've been largely based on the Fourth Doctor era, but with the Doctor designed more like Christopher Lloyd than like Tom Baker. But the interest was still there. Starting in 2006, missing episodes of the show from the 60's have been restored using animation alongside the original audio. So far, 49 episodes from thirteen serialsnote "The Reign of Terror", "Galaxy 4", "The Tenth Planet", "The Power of the Daleks", "The Moonbase", "The Macra Terror", "The Faceless Ones", "The Evil of the Daleks", "The Abominable Snowmen", "The Ice Warriors", "The Web of Fear", "Fury from the Deep", and "The Invasion" have been recreated in this way, including five surviving episodes from mostly-missing serials. 2009 saw the CGI-animated Dreamland which, despite not being the most fluidly-animated 45 minutes ever seen, finally finally gave us a "Doctor goes to Area 51" plot. Scream of the Shalka was intended to be the start of a continuation of the series, which at the time was still technically on hiatus. It didn't work, and the new series relegated it to Canon Discontinuity. The same people who animated it also worked on making animated versions of the missing episodes of The Invasion and did the same with The Reign of Terror. |

Teen Titans: Most famously, they had a self-titled cartoon that ran for five successful seasons. It was a significant hit despite initially being criticized for being noticeably Lighter and Softer than the comic books it was based off. It also proved to be fairly influential on the comics themselves, even producing a few Canon Immigrants. Then came Young Justice (2010), which was an Adaptation Distillation of both the Teen Titans and the original Young Justice comic series. The series was much darker than its predecessor, and won accolades for having a mature storytelling style evocative of the '90s DC Animated Universe shows. Another series, more comedic in tone, began airing in 2013: Teen Titans Go!. Go! is even lighter than the earlier Teen Titans, to the extent that there's an episode in which Dr. Light — yes, that Dr. Light — performs a temporary Heel–Face Turn and has tea with Raven and Starfire before the boys show up belatedly and give him a reason to start hating the Titans all over again. Go! also received two movies: Teen Titans Go! To the Movies and Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans. Justice League vs. Teen Titans and Teen Titans: The Judas Contract, meanwhile, exist in the DC Animated Movie Universe. Well before all of these, there were a set of 1967 Filmation shorts as part of the Superman Aquaman Hour Of Adventure |

The Avengers: The 1999 series, The Avengers: United They Stand is a rather forgettable short-lived series that gave the Avengers Power Rangers-esque Powered Armor Transformation Sequences, and relegated the "big name" Avengers to special guest appearances. The two Ultimate Avengers films, based on The Ultimates (a reimagination of the Avengers in the Ultimate Marvel universe). The 2010 series, The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, has been well received by most everyone and does stay true to the comics, while doing a similar attempt at an Adaptation Distillation, much like the above-mentioned Spectacular Spider-Man. 2013 saw the release of, Avengers Assemble. The show is heavily influenced by the 2012 live-action Avengers film, featuring the exact same roster save for the inclusion of The Falcon. 2014 saw the launch of Marvel Disk Wars: The Avengers, an anime International Co Production done with Toei Animation. |

Ghostbusters (1984) as The Real Ghostbusters and eventually Extreme Ghostbusters. The naming on this one is convoluted, so here goes: Filmation produced a live-action series called The Ghost Busters. Columbia licensed the name (but nothing else) from them for the movie. When the movie turned out to be a huge hit, Filmation wanted to do an Animated Adaptation of it, but Columbia didn't want to license the characters from the movie to them. Filmation then produced an animated series based on their earlier live-action series titled Ghostbusters, hoping to cash in on the movie's popularity despite having essentially nothing in common with it other than the name. Columbia then developed their own Animated Adaptation of the movie, calling it The Real Ghostbusters to distinguish it from Filmation's cartoon. | |

Although it was a comic book initially, The New Adventures of Batman was a direct adaptation of the '60s Adam West/Burt Ward Batman series before it, featuring the same actors and feel. A more direct adaptation came in the 2016 direct-to-DVD film Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders, which is explicitly based off of the '60s show and had West, Ward, and Julie Newmar reprising their roles. A sequel came out in 2017 with William Shatner playing Two-Face, who was deemed too gruesome for the TV show. |

Sailor Moon the 1992 anime of the same name that debuted within the year the manga began publishing, with ambitions of becoming a Cash-Cow Franchise. It was a large-scale Adaptation Expansion, drawing out the manga's 50+ chapters over 200+ episodes via Stock Footage, Padding and Filler Arcs while codifying several elements of the modern Magical Girl anime. It was so successful in its aims (and selling The Merch) that it spawned multimedia properties and even caused some Adaptation Displacement towards its parent manga. | |

Hercules and Xena received an animated movie, The Battle For Mount Olympus. The quality of the animation was so stunningly poor◊, and horribly different to the series, that it is one of VERY few things that fans hate more than Xena's finale. Animation and plot notwithstanding, the film made the crucial mistake of turning Gabrielle, the fourth most important character in the cast, into a giant bird for most of the films duration. Yeah. Bad idea. Cast and crew of the shows tend to avoid talking about the film. With something like this lying around, you have to wonder why Rob Tapert openly hates the comic adaptations. Or maybe not.◊ | |

Homestar Runner: The Strong Bad E-mail best thing makes fun of this phenomenon. Strong Bad claimed that the best thing he'd ever seen, done, or eaten was his copy of the aired-only-once pilot for a cartoon about his favorite hair-metal band, Limozeen, called "Limozeen: But They're in Space!" Parodied again in the Strong Bad Email "webcomic", in which he shows off what would happen if Secret Collect (a maze game with blocky Atari graphics) and Thy Dungeonman (a text-based adventure game) got animated adaptations in the vein of Pac-Man and Captain N: The Game Master. The end result is not pretty, and by that we mean hilarious. |

An animated adaptation of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was planned during the hiatus between the sixth and seventh seasons, but was scrapped. At least one script written for the animated series was recycled for the live-action show ("Him", which uses several tropes usually reserved for animation). One of the Season Eight comic issues had a dream sequence that appeared to be set in the abortive animated AU, with art similar to the released conceptual sketches for it. The five minutes of the first episode doing the rounds on YouTube utterly nail the tone of the first season. About the only thing missing was Sarah Michelle Gellar playing Buffy (the actress from the popular Xbox video games reprises the role), but everything from Buffy hitting herself with a stake when showing off to Giles despairing when Buffy misidentifies the cult as "the followers of Morgan Freeman" is present and accounted for. | |

An Australian-produced adaptation in 1972 was made the people who did (some of) Family Classics Theatre, Air Programs International. In this series Phileas Fogg was going around the world not to settle a bet (although £50,000 was at stake) but, as the theme song said, "so Fogg could marry Belinda Maze" — with Fix the henchman of Lord Maze trying to stop him and Passepartout from getting back.

Before they became super-powered, they had an earlier incarnation, The New 3 Stooges, with Moe, Larry and new Stooge Curly-Joe DeRita as themselves, featuring plots that were similar to the classic black & white live-action shorts (the series also included live segments at the end and beginning - the opening segment would have a Stooge tell the audience to watch the cartoon while they tried to deal with whatever problem they were now faced with, and the closing would pick up where it left off). One saving grace of the 1965 series was that it offered the surviving Stooges new income (and a new fan base) after the long-gone residuals from the old shorts. |

Mega Man: Mega Man (Classic) had an animated series by Ruby-Spears that aired from 1994 to 1995. The character designs were modified from the original art and took some liberties with the source material (particularly with Proto Man's allegiance, who was one of Mega Man's allies in the game, became Dr. Wily's primary henchman on the show). There was also a 3-part OVA, in a separate continuity, that did use the original artwork. It was mainly used to provide basic information about Japanese culture. In the early 00's, MegaMan NT Warrior was an adaptation of the Battle Network games. Both were called Rockman EXE in Japan. 2018 brings us Mega Man: Fully Charged. |

A CGI animated series was made by Nelvana out of, of all things, the Speculative Biology documentary The Future is Wild, about how life may evolve in the future. Essentially, the plot of the series revolves around CG, a girl from 10,000 years in the future, sent to scout out various places in time that humanity could colonise to save themselves from a "mega ice-age", who picks up three kids from the modern era and a future squid in the process. | |

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures continued the basic premise of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, with the duo of dudes traveling through history and meeting famous individuals in an attempt to solve various issues in their present day lives. With Alex Winter, Keanu Reeves and George Carlin (as Rufus) all reprising their original roles, the main characters were very faithful to their source material, though their exploits in the past were roughly as historically accurate and about as tongue-in-cheek as The Flintstones... which may have something to do with it being a Hanna-Barbera production. Then the show received a budget-related format reboot for its second season, with none of the aforementioned voice actors, a new animation style and a new intro theme — all due to it being from a different production company (DIC). It received a non-triumphant response and had a short run. | |

Around the World in Eighty Days got Around the World with Willy Fog. Willy Fog 2 shoved the main characters into Journey to the Center of the Earth and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, leaving the funny animal versions of Professors Lidenbrock and Aronnax standing around without much to do. An Australian-produced adaptation in 1972 was made the people who did (some of) Family Classics Theatre, Air Programs International. In this series Phileas Fogg was going around the world not to settle a bet (although £50,000 was at stake) but, as the theme song said, "so Fogg could marry Belinda Maze" — with Fix the henchman of Lord Maze trying to stop him and Passepartout from getting back. He didn't. |

Sabrina the Teenage Witch as Sabrina: The Animated Series (and Sabrina's Secret Life). Similar in basic idea to the original (if ignoring its canon), only younger (and with balding butcher Uncle Quigley added to the cast as one of Sabrina's caretakers). Melissa Joan Hart's sister took over the title role, while Melissa did the voice of her aunts. The earlier series was itself a Live-Action Adaptation of a much earlier comic book, with its own animated adaptation, Sabrina and The Groovie Goolies. And around we go... |

Transformers is probably the most successful and definitely most prolific example of this. Though, originally, the toys were from separate toy lines and had no factions and none of their iconic names. Sunbow Entertainment devised the factions, and then Marvel Comics named and fleshed out the characters (the comic book and cartoon were developed concurrently), and all of that was put into a new toy line. The entire purpose of The Transformers: The Movie was to "clear the way for the new toy line". The real reason Optimus Prime and many of the others were killed off? Because their toys had been discontinued by the company. | |

I Dream of Jeannie: Hanna-Barbera gave us Jeannie, with the military officer heroes replaced by teenage boys, and added an incompetent, Joe Besser-voiced "Junior genie, Babu" as a sidekick. Barbara Eden's trademark eyeblink for casting spells was replaced by a whirl of the animated Jeannie's ponytail. The male lead, Cory Anders, was voiced by a young Mark Hamill. And yes, that's him singing the theme song as well. | |

From the same production crew as the specials and the older movies came 1983's The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show, which featured shorts in the vein of the comics as opposed to the longer stories of the movies and TV specials. This was followed in 2014 a French series of Peanuts shorts from Dall'Angelo Pictures, as well as two Canadian productions from WildBrain for Apple TV+ starring Snoopy, being 2019's Snoopy in Space and 2021's The Snoopy Show. | |

2014's Sailor Moon Crystal seeks to be actively Truer to the Text of the source material, from the pacing adapting a chapter per episode, to a deliberate Art Shift in character design towards the long-limbed Noodle People aesthetic of the manga. It does pay tribute to its predecessor, by recreating its choreography and poses for Transformation Sequences and In the Name of the Moon speeches, both of which were codified in The '90s anime. | |

Canadian TV studio Radical Sheep Productions (perhaps best known for The Big Comfy Couch) has done a few. The 2011 series Stella & Sam was adapted from onthe Stella and Sam series of children's picture books by Canadian author Marie-Louise Gay, taking the eponymous siblings of the respective series and putting them together in shared adventures. Fangbone! (originally planned for a 2014 release, but pushed back to 2016) was adapted from children's graphic novels Fangbone! Third Grade Barbarian, created by American author Michael Rex, who was also heavily involved in the cartoon series' production. The Bagel and Becky Show is based on the children's picture book Bagel's Lucky Hat written by Canadian artist Dave Cooper, notable for being one of his few forays into children's media (the other being the Nickelodeon cartoon Pig Goat Banana Cricket). |

The Muppets: Jim Henson's Muppet Babies (and its reboot) The grown-up Muppets appeared in animated segments on The Little Muppet Monsters, which briefly shared an hour with Muppet Babies during its original run. The show also featured an animated segment based on the Pigs in Space segment from The Muppet Show. |
