Babar and the Adventures of Badou | comment |
Babar and the Adventures of Badou is a Canadian-French-Luxembourgish computer-animated children's series produced by Nelvana. It aired new episodes from 2010 to 2015 on YTV and Treehouse TV in Canada and Disney Junior and Qubo in the United States, running for a total of 65 episodes over 3 seasons.Babar and the Adventures of Badou is a Sequel Series taking place many years after the original Babar Animated Adaptation produced by Nelvana way back in 1989. Serving partly as a reintroduction of the king of the elephants to a new generation of children, the show focuses on Badou, the 8-year-old grandson of King Babar and son of Babar’s now-adult son Pom (who is now Celesteville’s chief architect). Alongside a host of completely new characters and a few familiar faces from the original show, Badou has fun with his circle of friends (including Zephir’s daughter Chiku, Munroe the porcupine, Zawadi the zebra, and Jake the fox), solves problems around Celesteville, and explores the surrounding jungles and savannahs. And while he’s at it, the young prince learns many important lessons while also dealing with the occasional antagonist.Unlike in the original series, Celesteville is not populated solely by elephants and now includes a wide variety of African wildlife among its citizens. Additionally, several voice actors from the 80s cartoon reprise their characters here, including Gordon Pinsent (the voice of Babar himself), Dawn Greenhalgh (Celeste), Chris Wiggins (Cornelius, in his final appearance), and Jeff Pustil (Zephir). You can find episodes on Youtube through the the show's official channel and Nelvana's Treehouse Direct. | |

Babar and the Adventures of Badou / int_26beee71 | comment |
Taught by Experience: Discussed in "Badou's Best Adventure." Badou is feeling sad and Babar asks why. He says it's because he thinks he'll never be as good an adventurer as Babar and Heropotamus are, that they never make mistakes. Babar explains that the two of them are good adventurers because they've adventured for so long and made a lot of mistakes, which they've learned from. | |

Furry Confusion | |
Babar and the Adventures of Badou / int_27a40541 | comment |
Furry Confusion: Several characters such as Sleek behave like wild animals (including apparently trying to devour other talking animals), intermixing with the usual civilized Babar cast. While the original animated series featured the occasional non-sentient/wild animal (such as Lady Rataxes' pet warthog), this series seems to put a greater emphasis on such. Gets notable with the lions, which were mostly shown as civilized animals in the original series (complete with bipedalism) while the ones seen here are all wild animals. | |

Fantastic Slur: "Tame towners." This is so common that even nice-guy wild animal Dandy King Andi uses it in the episode "Council of Crowns". The same episode gives us a counter-insult, courtesy of Lady Rataxes (naturally): "Scruffy wild-lifer". | |

Heinous Hyena | |
Babar and the Adventures of Badou / int_39ffee21 | comment |
Heinous Hyena: Hoot is a notable aversion of this trope. While she is a practical joker, she always means well and is generally friendly. Deconstructed in her first appearance in "Savannah Scramble" where Badou and Jake initially think she is a threat when she seemingly chases them only to learn she means no harm and was just following the scent of Jake's sandwich. "Savannah Surfing" has a pair of troublesome hyenas, Yaw and Shani. | |

Cats Are Mean: Sleek, the black panther who dwells in the deep jungle outside of Celesteville and one of the series' main antagonists. She frequently tries to prey on Babar, Badou, and the others when they enter her territory, seeing their civilized lifestyle as a weakness. Kylus, another recurring antagonist, is a rogue lion who tries to take Dandi Andi's place as king of the savannah. | |

Never Smile at a Crocodile: Ambassador Crocodylus, the ever-scheming troublemaker in Babar's palace, and his nephew Dilash (who is The Bully to Badou and his friends and often helps his uncle with his schemes). Averted for his other nephew Tersh (who starts off as his uncle's inept helper but later becomes one of Badou's friends), the crocodile sailor Captain Darling, and the Boss of the Slogs (Crocodylus' boss ironically enough). | |

Babar and the Adventures of Badou / int_7360a2f8 | comment |
Growling Gut: Happens to Dilash in "Chocolate and Banana Soup" after eating too many bananas. Happens to Jake in "Blacktrunk’s Magic Stone". Happens to Dilash again, but along with Tersh in "Grotto For One" after eating bananas that gave them gas. In "The Brave Guy", the cast is frightened on a nightly basis by loud roars they fear are coming from a monster Queen Celeste told them about in a story. The source of the sound is eventually revealed to be Ambassador Crocodylus' stomach growling; it turns out the monster in Celeste's story was actually inspired by Crocodylus' stomach. Happens to Badou in "Monkey Camp" after eating variety specials made from bananas. | |

Put on a Bus: Arthur, Alexander, Flora, Isabelle, Pompadour, Troopadour, Victor, Basil and Madame (Justified that she was very elderly when Babar was a kid and likely passed away since, Cornelius on the other hand has the excuse that Elephants live much longer than humans). In "King Badou vs. The Pirates", Badou tells Pom and Celeste to "say hello to Aunt Flora and Aunt Isabelle" when they go on a trip, while Arthur is mentioned in "The Celesteville Junior Marching Band" as the pilot of the airship carrying the royal marching band. | |

Adaptational Jerkass: Lady Rataxes is a lot more selfish and a much bigger jerkass in this series, being more likely to antagonize the elephants of Celesteville when compared to how she was a good terms with them in the original show. Conversely, Rataxes himself is depicted as dimmer and more ineffectual than in the original series, although he still retains his rude and forceful personality. | |

So Proud of You | |

So Proud of You: At the end of "King Badou vs. the Pirates," after the situation with the pirates is resolved, Babar tells Badou "You're going to make a fine king one day, Badou. I am very, very proud of you." | |

Lighter and Softer: Being aimed at much younger children and produced in a very different time, this series generally lacks most of the danger and adventure that the original series had. | |

Anti-Villain: Sleek becomes this over the course of the series. While initially a more straightforward antagonist towards Badou and his friends, she and Badou start to have more friendly interactions towards the end of the show, especially after Badou saves her from Prospero and starts to learn more about her life. | |

Chiku: "In a monkey minute!" Munroe: "They're thrillin' for a quillin'." Jake: "Stinkies!" Crocodylus: "Muck and mire!" Hoot: "No foolin' | |

Arc Welding | |
Babar and the Adventures of Badou / int_dba4ae4f | comment |
Arc Welding : Planned from the beginning and done well. After several seemingly isolated episodes an obvious story arc begins and elements introduced in previous episodes become vital to it. It culminates in finding a treasure that was mentioned in a throwaway line in the first episode. | |

Real After All | |
Babar and the Adventures of Badou / int_fb724048 | comment |
Real After All: In "The Wisdom Toad," there's supposedly a toad called the Wisdom Toad that supposedly knows the right answer to everything. However, it turns out that says "Yep" every time a question is posed of it. When Crocodylus tries to use it to trick the crocodiles into making him leader, Badou discovers a whole pond of these toads and finds that some of them say "Yep" and some "Nope." He therefore pulls a swap, swapping the supposed "Wisdom Toad" for one of the ones that says "Nope," so that when Crocodylus asks it if he should be leader, this is what it says. Afterwards, he shows the pond of frogs to the true crocodile leader and everyone present agrees that it was never a good idea to let a toad choose the leader. Everyone clears out except for Badou and Babar, and Badou asks Babar if he thinks it's possible that there could be a real Wisdom Toad. A voice calls out from the pond: "Maybe." | |
