A light-hearted mix of The Six Million Dollar Man (sort of), Get Smart (heavily) and The Pink Panther, Inspector Gadget was an animated crime-fighting cyborg police detective who traveled the world "solving" crimes.His namesake body was loaded with an assortment of non-lethal slapstick crime-fighting tools that he could activate by saying aloud "Go-Go Gadget..." and then naming the tool he wanted to use. Among the most prominent were his telescoping arms, spring loaded legs, inflatable trench coat, a hat that contained a helicopter propeller that allowed him to fly, and a miniature laser gun built into one finger. (But, given the tone of the show, he never had to use it to lethally blast anyone)Actor Don Adams provided Inspector Gadget's voice, and much of the inspiration for the character was drawn from Adams' live-action portrayal of bumbling secret agent Maxwell Smart in Get Smart. Also carried over from the live-action show was the manner in which Gadget received his orders from his superiors. Chief Quimby would contact Gadget on a built-in telephone and arrange a meeting, giving Gadget his intelligence on a self-destructing sheet of paper. Later on in the series veteran voice actor Maurice LaMarche would take over the role of Gadget.Gadget's nemesis throughout the series were agents of the MAD organization: a global crime syndicate with operatives just about everywhere who specialized in the looting of national treasures and world financial markets. Swiss gold reserves, the Amsterdam diamond exchange and Egyptian artifacts were just some of the financial and cultural properties targeted by MAD at some point. It also gave excuses to send Gadget and company to exotic locales such as the Amazon River, the Andes Mountains or the African savannahs.There were a number of changes made in the second season. Penny and Chief Quimby were recast, and a new character was introduced, Corporal Capeman, who dresses like a superhero and believes he can fly, though he can't. He acts as a sidekick to Gadget, who he idolizes, and is (somehow) even dumber than Gadget. The episodes were now organized into groups of three, with a single MAD agent acting as a recurring antagonist for three episodes at a time. Additionally, the action focused less on traveling the world and stayed localized to Gadget's Metropolis-esque home town of Metro City, though there was a series of three episodes where Gadget and company went into outer space and another three where they traveled through time. These episodes featured MAD scientists (both literally and figuratively) inventing new technologies for MAD agents to commit mundane crimes with a sci-fi twist. A machine that hypnotized normal people into robbing banks, shrink-rays, plant-growing chemicals and a teleporter that sent users though normal phone lines were all featured.Pulling the strings of the MAD cabal was the nefarious Dr. Claw, a (mostly) never-seen Big Bad who ended each episode defeated, declaring he'd get Gadget the next time.Much of the actual detective work of the series was performed by Gadget's niece, Penny, and the family dog Brain, who was a master of disguise. The duo would solve the case behind the scenes using Penny's high-tech "computer book" (a laptop before such a thing was invented which could receive data seventeen years before wi-fi became a consumer technology) while Gadget's gadgets would send him careering about the landscape like Remington Steele on roller-skates. Penny would have many close scrapes and exciting adventures of her own. She would oftentimes get captured and either imprisoned or tied up, and require rescue, or manage to escape on her own.Penny and Brain never took credit for their work, leading others to regard Gadget as a brilliant detective, and several comical attempts on his life were made by MAD assassins. Gadget would invariably mistake these assassins for helpful allies and would always assume the disguised Brain was an enemy agent.Indeed, Penny's role in the cartoon's plot is so vital that the show actually works pretty well if you remove Gadget himself from it and focus only on Penny.Despite its many varied locales and plots, the show was Strictly Formula, using the above-mentioned plot elements in literally every single episode, albeit sometimes with creative variations. For example, sometimes Penny makes friends with other kids who help her out with her investigations. Gadget could also sometimes stop Claw himself through his buffoonery, or even show more isolated moments of competence if the plot required it.A total of 86 episodes were produced by DiC Entertainment for syndication, with new episodes airing from September 5, 1983 until November 13, 1985, though the 1992 Christmas Special Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas shares many similarities with season 2 in art style, cast, and script, and could be seen as the series finale. Gadget stayed on in syndication well into the 1990s before being largely retired. Maurice LaMarche also made a Live-Action appearance as Gadget on The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!.After the series ended, Gadget saw himself in a bunch of other media: Television series: Gadget Boy & Heather (1995) - Shares the basic concept of the original series, but the star is a little kid instead of a grown adult and otherwise shares nothing in common with the source. Gadget and the Gadgetinis (2001) - A spinoff where Gadget is joined by two sidekicks, the titular Gadgetinis. Inspector Gadget (2015) - A CGI sequel which introduces Dr. Claw's teenage son as another antagonist. Movies/Specials: Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas (1992) - A Made-for-TV Movie where Gadget heads to the North Pole to save Santa Claus from Dr. Claw. Inspector Gadget's Field Trip (1996) - A series of educational videos where Gadget teaches kids all about international locales. Inspector Gadget (1999) - Gadget's big screen debut, played by Matthew Broderick and distributed by Disney. A heavy case of both Darker and Edgier and In Name Only compared to the original cartoon. Inspector Gadget 2 (2003) - A Direct to Video sequel, with the titular character now played by French Stewart. Closer to the cartoon, but was heavily looked down upon. Inspector Gadget: Gadget's Greatest Gadgets (1999) - Created to ride off the coattails of the first-live action movie, this VHS tape features three episodes of the original show with brand new wrap-around segments. First time Gadget is played by Maurice LaMarche in animation. Inspector Gadget's Last Case: Claw's Revenge (2002) - Animated movie where Gadget has his final showdown with Dr. Claw. Was, in fact, ''not'' Gadget's last case. Inspector Gadget's Biggest Case Ever (2005) - CGI animated movie that seems to take from the live-action films moreso than the cartoon. Featured Bernie Mac as Gadget's car. Video Games: Inspector Gadget and the Circus of Fear (1987) - Platformer for the Commodore 64. Gadget has to investigate mysterious disappearances and how they're connected to the International Circus. Inspector Gadget: Mission 1 - Global Terror! (1992) - Adventure game for MS-DOS. Instead of controlling Gadget, the player controls Penny and Brain as they help Gadget save kidnapped UN Representatives. Inspector Gadget (1993) - Side-scrolling action game for the SNES where Gadget has to save Penny after she's kidnapped by MAD. Inspector Gadget: Operation Madkactus - Action side-scroller for the Game Boy Color. Players control Gadget, Penny, and Brain as they aim to stop Dr. Claw from unleashing the Madkactus virus. Gadget and the Gadgetinis (2004) - A 3D platformer for the Playstation 2 and PC based on the spinoff. Players switch between controlling Gadget and the Gadgetinis depending on the level. Inspector Gadget: Gadget's Crazy Maze (2001) - Puzzle game for the original PlayStation where Gadget has to stop MAD from hypnotizing the world. Inspector Gadget: Advance Mission (2001) - Action game for the Game Boy Advance where the player controls Gadget to stop MAD from using a brainwashing machine to make everyone insane. Inspector Gadget: Mad Robots Invasion (2003) - A PlayStation 2 2.5D platformer game where Gadget has to progress through five levels to defeat MAD and rescue Penny and Brain. Inspector Gadget: MAD Time Party (2023) - A party/open-world game for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Steam, where Gadget must contend against his ancestors to build a time machine to travel back in time and rescue Metro City from MAD's reign.Gadget was also DiC's mascot for many years, most notably providing the EasyPlay DVD tutorials in that position.

Totem Pole Trench: In the episode "Weather in Tibet", Penny and a friend of hers do this to sneak past some guards. Penny and Brain also do this in "So It Is Written." The Linguinis in "Gadget in Minimadness" do this as part of a Paper-Thin Disguise, posing as a nurse to gain entrance to Gadget's house. Naturally, Gadget falls for the disguise, but Brain does not, and his attempts to stop the Linguinis are mistaken by Gadget as bad behavior.

 Inspector Gadget / int_14beeefd
comment
Darker and Edgier: Parodies and spoofs of the cartoon very commonly veer in this direction. Unsurprisingly many of them came from Robot Chicken, such as this one. For bonus points, many of the parodies were voiced by the original voice actors. For the series itself, while there's no clear trend of it, certain episodes are notably darker than the norm. For example, "The Boat" is much more explicit than usual about Claw's occasional mass murders as a group of witnesses are shown about to be drowned by M.A.D. agents. It also unapologetically shows Claw drowning Gadget slowly while forcing little Penny to watch. Other, less blatant examples include episodes "Dutch Treat" and "Launch Time". "Gadget and the Old Lace" notably has one of the more graphic and nearly successful attempts on Gadget's life involving electrocution.

All There in the Manual
 Inspector Gadget / int_17ce80aa
comment
All There in the Manual: Merchandise of the show and early advertisements from back in the early 1980's, along with a Little Golden Book from 1984 (Inspector Gadget in Africa), revealed that MAD stands for Mean And Dirty. Other pieces of merchandise say it stands for Malevolent Agency of Destruction. Where'd Inspector Gadget get those wonderful toys? According to his action figure, the hospital installed them while treating him for injuries he'd sustained from slipping on a Banana Peel. This also is explained as where he got the toys in the Live Action Adaptation. Only he is blown up in his car by Dr. Claw, resulting in severe injuries and slight amnesia. The recurring M.A.D. Agents we see in every episode have names, although they were only used on their design sheets and in the scripts of the episodes. The names of the M.A.D. Agents are: Fred (big man, crooked nose, flat head), Lenny (big guy, bulbous nose), Dick (skinny man), Slick (resembles Dick, but with white hair, a mustache, and a goatee), Pops (A bald, hunched-over man with a large chin), Bruce (muscular man with a large chin), Squirt (short man with scrunched-up face), and Jarvis (fat, balding man).

Never Trust a Trailer: Nickelodeon, in the late-80's, had a promo for the show contrasting the "good guys" (Gadget, Penny and Brain) and the "bad guys" (Dr. Claw and his minions) asking the viewer, "Who's side are you on?" The problem? Chief Quimby was among the "bad guys" in the promo, even though he's actually Gadget's supervisor in the series.

Haplessly Hiding: Playing With. Once an Episode, Chief Quimby approaches Gadget through various secret tunnels and hidey-holes to provide him with the letter issuing the mission of the day. Though Gadget does note the chief at first, he constantly forgets about him after reading the letter, carelessly throwing the letter away and it falling into the place where the Chief is hidden, giving him a point-blank exposure to the letter's Self-Destruct Mechanism (usually a colossal explosion).

Lawful Stupid: Gadget to a 'T', so much that he thinks childish students sticking out their tongues are suspicious, and that the high-school chemistry teacher is training students in making explosives. He could be stopped in his tracks if MAD agents did something as simple as putting up a red traffic light in the middle of nowhere. Capeman as usual was even worse, once calling a tow truck on the Gadgetmobile for being illegally parked while on a case. Naturally, the truck driver is a MAD assassin who puts the two into a Death Trap.

Borrowed Catchphrase: Penny occasionally borrows/inherits Gadget's "Wowsers!", though unlike her uncle when she says it it's almost never Played for Laughs. Brain also said "Wowsers!" in an episode of the second season. Penny has also said "Go Go Gadgetmobile" and "Go Go Gadget Claw" when she's the one activating them rather than Gadget. In "Down on the Farm", when Chief Quimby contacts Gadget, it's Penny who exclaims, "That's the top-secret Gadget-Phone!"

Where King Croesus' alchemical formula to turn lead into gold turned out to be fake the entire time.

Actor Allusion

Actor Allusion: Seeing as Gadget is essentially Maxwell Smart AS A CYBORG, it makes sense that he'd be voiced by Maxwell himself, Don Adams.note That said, compared to Inspector Gadget, Maxwell Smart is somewhat more competent. At the end of at least one episode, Gadget even says "Sorry about that, Chief.". In the opening credits, Gadget goes through a series of secret doors to get an assignment from Chief Quimby in a clear allusion to Get Smart's opening credits.

Dunking the Bomb

comment
Dunking the Bomb: In the episode "In Seine", Gadget is given a belt for his trenchcoat with a bomb built into it. Brain pushes Gadget into the water, managing to remove his belt and dunk it into the water. Another episode, "Art Heist", has Gadget get a glowing ball which is activated by Dr. Claw and turns incredibly hot. Brain gets it away from him yet again and throws the hot ball into a fountain. It explodes, sending up a big column of water. A double subversion in "Amusement Park", where Gadget received a panda bear as a reward for hitting two of three ducks. This bear contains a bomb set to blow up in 30 minutes, which Brian attempts to throw into the amusement park pool (only to be caught by Gadget's long arm). When Chief Quimby shows up, he stumbles and accidentally drops the bear into the pool just in time for the bomb to explode.

Since Pilot!Gadget was actually competent, Penny and Brain were just along for the ride, rather than the ones really solving the case. In fact, for most of the episode, Penny was a Damsel in Distress and Brain was the gleefully dim Millstone getting on Gadget's nerves. Their later aptitude only perks up during the final climax, where Gadget finally loses the Smart Ball.

Smart Ball: Gadget, who could show competence whenever it was necessary to advance the plot. Several of MAD's attempts to derail the train in Basic Training were thwarted by Gadget himself, while in The Ruby Gadget defeated the tigers Dr. Claw sent after him on his own. In one episode, "M.A.D. Trap", Dr. Claw's so fed up with Gadget ruining his plans that he enlists one (or more, not sure) agent with specifically killing him. Gadget is lured into an abandoned warehouse full of death traps; Penny is aware of the death order issued by Claw but both her and Brain are unable to directly intervene to save Gadget from the traps. The inspector though picks up the Smart Ball and counters each trap or attempt at killing him, managing to escaping the warehouse in the end, all traps deactivated or destroyed. And he was perfectly aware of the situation, all along! Since you actually control Gadget in the SNES game, he's only ever as stupid as the player. But this might be justified by the fact that the plot involves Penny being kidnapped. During the pilot episode, Gadget had the Smart Ball glued to his hands all the time, at the point he's completely unrecognizable. Also in the Grand Finale, the made for TV movie "Inspector Gadget's Last Case". He's still somewhat bumbling, but significantly less so than usual. Penny and Brain get less screentime.

Would Hurt a Child: While she was usually just Bound and Gagged, there were at least three M.A.D. Agents who actually tried to kill Penny. The first was the Archaeologist in "All That Glitters", who tried to throw Penny off a cliff and only stopped because she pointed out that too many people would see. The second was the Clockmaker from "The Coo-Coo Clock Caper", who tried to crush Penny with a mannequin wielding a mallet set to strike at 5:00. The third was the hired agent to create diamond suits in "A Clear Case," who tied Penny up on a Conveyor Belt o' Doom leading to a laser.

No Hugging, No Kissing: Attempts by female MAD-agents to seduce Gadget were purely verbal, as was his flirting (at least in the early episodes when writers allowed him to flirt). Also, there are never romantic interests for Penny but this may be due to the nature of her adventures and the need to be discreet; she rarely has the opportunity to interact with guest characters of her own age group.

Stock Sound Effects: The first-season episodes created some unique sound effects for Gadget's gadgets, the Gadget Van turning into the Gadgetmobile (and vice-versa), and Penny's computer book and Video Phone watch. Many familiar Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. sound effects were also utilized, and even some Star Wars sound effects were used at times. The second season dropped most of these effects, and often used more unfamiliar Animesque sounds for Gadget's gadgets and generic beeping for Penny's devices.

Plot-Driven Breakdown
 Inspector Gadget / int_4c455537
comment
Plot-Driven Breakdown: All the time. At least once an episode the wrong gadget will activate, a gadget will outright not work when he needs it, or do something else. In fact, it was a surprise whenever a gadget worked correctly. The malfunction often involved, instead of whatever gadget was requested, a big hammer coming out of Gadget's head and bonking either him or some other object/person in the area (which occasionally actually turned out well).

Inspector Oblivious: Gadget is a terrible officer who regularly dismisses important clues, then goes chasing after ridiculous ones. He only succeeds because his niece and his dog help solve his cases and keep MAD agents from killing him, though Gadget is unaware of their help.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Inspector Gadget / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: In the pilot: Gadget, while still bumbling, was far more competent, and used his gadgets with clever, deadly accuracy as well. This interpretation reappeared in a handful of early episodes (eg. "Haunted Castle") but ultimately faded in favor of his Inspector Oblivious persona. Also, he had a mustache. This was dropped because it made him a little too much like Inspector Clouseau. Another oddity was that Gadget's gadgets made beeping sounds whenever they activated. Chief Quimby appeared several times throughout the episode to give Gadget new missions, rather than just once at the very beginning. Penny and Chief Quimby sounded different, as well. Penny's voice was younger and higher pitched, while Chief Quimby's was more growly. Since Pilot!Gadget was actually competent, Penny and Brain were just along for the ride, rather than the ones really solving the case. In fact, for most of the episode, Penny was a Damsel in Distress and Brain was the gleefully dim Millstone getting on Gadget's nerves. Their later aptitude only perks up during the final climax, where Gadget finally loses the Smart Ball. In early episodes, Gadget visibly fell for and flirted with the attractive undercover female MAD Agents such as Madame and Amazon Annie. This vanished after a short while and Gadget was shown to be more oblivious to women who tried to seduce him. Also, the physical attractiveness of the seducing women went down as this element was gradually phased out and the show began to enforce strict No Hugging, No Kissing. Also, while Penny had her video watch as early as the first regular episode, "Monster Lake," she does not use her iconic Computer Book until "Race to the Finish," 7 episodes later.

Disproportionate Retribution: In episode 1-6 "Health Spa", Gadget looks in his rearview mirror and sees someone (Brain) on a scooter following him. He automatically assumes it is a MAD agent and fires missiles and uses an oil slick against despite the fact that the only thing this person is "guilty" of is being behind him on the road. In "The Incredible Shrinking Gadget", Chief Quimby, after being accidentally shrunk, threatens to fire Gadget if he doesn't return him to normal size.

Non-Action Big Bad
 Inspector Gadget / int_51c28ba3
comment
Non-Action Big Bad: Usually played straight with Claw, who spends most episodes kicking back watching his minions try to stop Gadget, albeit with some surprising subversions:- "Quimby Exchange": From his MAD-Mobile, Dr. Claw spots Chief Quimby inspecting a wrecked prison cell. Rather than the expected act of calling his on the scene MAD-Agents or deploying his vehicle, he gets out and personally captures him (off-screen of course). "The Japanese Connection": A triggered alarm (by a bungling Inspector Gadget) led Claw to leave his project seat to deal with the intruder himself, returning only because he found no one. Inspector Gadget was this close to encountering him face to face. Dr. Claw sometimes drives the MAD-Mobile / Jet around seemingly for no reason but to try and catch and attack Gadget, on more than one occasion. In “Race to the Finish� this sets up one of his bigger roles in the series, where instead of hiring a minion to pose as MAD’s race car driver he does the job himself.

Yellow Peril: Dr. Claw tried to team up with a Yellow Peril villain on two separate occasions. First, in "The Japanese Connection," Claw met with the "Great Samurai Waruda" who literally wore samurai armour. In "Eye of the Dragon," Claw met with the nefarious Mr. Chow from Hong Kong, who tended to speak largely in metaphors, as did a lot of the Chinese characters in that episode.

Never Bareheaded: Gadget is never seen with his hat off. It very well could be built onto his head and unremovable. Gadget is occasionally, albeit briefly, seen without his hat in some of the spinoff incarnations, varying between having full hair or being bald underneath. In "Haunted Castle," a flash of lightning scares Brain so bad that he jumps into Gadget's coat. When Gadget's hat flies up for a few frames, a closer look reveals that he has a widow's peak!

For the series itself, while there's no clear trend of it, certain episodes are notably darker than the norm. For example, "The Boat" is much more explicit than usual about Claw's occasional mass murders as a group of witnesses are shown about to be drowned by M.A.D. agents. It also unapologetically shows Claw drowning Gadget slowly while forcing little Penny to watch. Other, less blatant examples include episodes "Dutch Treat" and "Launch Time". "Gadget and the Old Lace" notably has one of the more graphic and nearly successful attempts on Gadget's life involving electrocution.

Covered in Gunge: Happens to Gadget, almost as often as Penny getting Bound and Gagged. Milk, cheese, Dutch chocolate, mud, crude oil; you name it, he's probably been covered in it at some point. Brain's also suffered this occasionally. He and Gadget have ended up covered in tomato juice after falling into a truck full of giant tomatoes. Brain and a bunch of MAD agents also ended up stuck in giant wedges of cheese after falling into a cheese processing machine. In another episode, Brain did this deliberately by covering himself with flour to disguise himself as a statue.

Hypnotism Reversal: In the episode "Snakin' All Over", the MAD Agent of the episode, Professor Venom, has a variety of snakes that do his bidding. One of them is a cobra that hypnotizes people into a helpless, stupefied state wherein they don't move. In the climax of the episode, Penny defeats the cobra by showing it a mirror, causing it to hypnotize itself.

Calling Your Attacks: Every time Gadget is going to use one of his gadgets, he says, "Go-Go Gadget Copter/Mallet/Phone/Scissors/Laser/Skates/Radar/Arms/Legs/Coat/Binoculars/Key/Whatever!" Which leads to a funny situation in "Fang The Wonder Dog", where Gadget says "Go go Gadget Key!" and gets his flashlight instead. He then points his index finger (where the flashlight is coming from) at his face and nonchalantly says "I said 'Go go Gadget key!'"

Vanity Plate: Many of the first season episodes ended with a customized "D.i.C." logo where Gadget clumsily dots the "i" with his Gadget-malletnote This is similar to another logo used for The Littles, which premiered the same year, in which Dinky dots the "i" with a button. Early episodes and the second season used DiC's standard "Vortex" logo of the time.

Although Presto Change-O's disguises in "The Infiltration" managed to change his entire form, he still had paler skin than whoever he would impersonate, not to mention his evil-looking eyes and all that teeth. Yet everyone else doesn't notice these details when Presto impersonates Gadget and Chief Quimby, though Penny initially figures out what's going on and is able to tell the two apart.

Strange Salute
 Inspector Gadget / int_77a19ddf
comment
Strange Salute: Dr. Claw's henchmen essentially punch themselves in the temple to salute their superiors. It's accompanied by a hollow knocking sound effect, and it looks like it hurts (on more than one occasion, an agent salutes at the end of a conversation and knocks themselves out). More than likely, Dr. Claw made it up so his minions would injure themselves for his amusement. Though his agents repeatedly concussing themselves probably isn't doing their intelligence any favors.

The Faceless: Dr. Claw in the cartoon. Bodiless, too. The only parts of him that were ever shown were his forearms. A Dr. Claw action figure was released during the 1990's that showed his face, as did the Super NES game released by Hudson Soft. In one episode, set in Japan, we see Claw's shadow, but it's a generic, blob like shape that gives no indication of what he looks like. However, another shot of the same shadow later on suggests that he seems to be wearing a hood/cloak of some kind.

Animation Bump: The TMS episodes animated by Shingo Araki's animation unit, including "The Curse of the Pharaoh," "The Coo-Coo Clock Caper," "The Bermuda Triangle," "Did You Myth Me?" and "Unhenged." In these episodes, the animation and designs are of a noticeably higher quality, with slightly rounded designs and more detailed facial features, and the movements are fuller and cartoonier. The Telecom animation directors such as Saburo Hashimoto, Nobuo Tomizawa and Toshihiko Masuda also contributed some high-quality animation as well.

Solar-Powered Magnifying Glass: In several episodes, there are weapons of this nature: In "The Emerald Duck", Dr. Claw sought to claim a powerful crystal-weapon that could convert sunlight into deadly beams of destruction. To ensure he didn't get his hands on it, Penny and Brain overloaded it with Penny's laser, causing it to explode. In "Unhenged", M.A.D agents abducted astrophysicists and tricked them into building a heat cannon which they intended to use to blast the Tower of London and force London to pay Dr. Claw's demands. Fortunately, Penny managed to cause it to collapse before it could fire. "Focus on Gadget" features a computer-controlled space station with a giant magnifying lens which was meant to be used to evaporate all the water on Earth, until Harold gained free will and decided to destroy the lens to prevent it from being used for its evil purpose.

Artistic License – Animal Care: The villain in "Birds of a Feather" uses a flock of assorted birds to commit crimes and is about to feed birdseed to them before being ordered by Dr. Claw to get rid of Gadget. Birdseed would be unsuitable for these species; one is a hummingbird which feeds on flower nectar and tree sap. The other birds resemble raptors (one is identified as a condor by Penny), most likely eating meat.

Where the Hell Is Springfield?
 Inspector Gadget / int_8504b817
comment
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: Where Metro City is located hasn't been revealed. The only clues given are that it's in the middle of an area made up of farmland and it snows in the winter. It also might be near Westfinster. The Movie puts it in Ohio. The film adaptation gives Gadget's hometown's name as Riverton rather than Metro City. There's a chance that Metro City is somewhere in Canada. In the 2015 CGI series, Chief Quimby is Canadian, with a apir of tiny Candaian flags on his desk. The first season was co-produced by the Canadian studio Nelvana, and Metro City is shown to be so generic that either an American or a Canadian kid could imagine it as being in their neck of the woods. One episode, "Tree Guesses", is explicitly set in the Canadian wilderness.note At the beginning of the episode, Penny says: "What lovely scenery in Canada! I'm so glad you rented a cottage here, Uncle Gadget!" This comment could be taken to indicate that they have come over from the United States. Or it could simply serve to indicate the Canadian setting explicitly for that episode, without negating that Metro City is also in Canada. A middle-of-the-road possibility is that the comment was inserted deliberately in order to obscure the question of which country Metro City is located in.

What Happened to the Mouse?
 Inspector Gadget / int_863fa679

What Happened to the Mouse?: Usually the M.A.D. agents would be arrested at the end of each episode (at least during the first season). However, a few like Amazon Annie from "The Amazon", the Rat from "M.A.D. Trap" and Labella from "King Wrong" are never shown being apprehended. What became of those agents is never revealed. In "School for Pickpockets", one of the pickpocket students, Runt, twice flunks out of said school and fails trying to steal from Gadget. His fate is unknown as Chief Quimby never confirms if Runt was one of the pickpockets arrested at the end. "Quizmaster" involves some of the Quizmaster game show winners later going to prison after being framed for armored car robbery. We never learn if they were exonerated after Gadget solved the case.

And Knowing Is Half the Battle

comment
And Knowing Is Half the Battle: At the end of each episode, as per the standard at the time, Gadget, Penny and Brain would teach the kids a safety tip like "exercise is good for you" or "always wear a seatbelt". Where it gets weird is, it's always Gadget providing wise advice to Penny. This complete reversal of his usual stupidity is blatant enough to suggest he's actually been trolling her and Brain in the main show all this time. In the first season, it was typically related to the episode in some way ("Down on the Farm" had safety about farm animals and equipment, "Health Spa" had advice about exercise and good health, "Race to the Finish" had automobile safety, "Basic Training" had train safety, etc.) or would relate to something that happened in the episode.

Replaced with Replica: In one episode, it's discovered that MAD is planning to rob a museum. They do this by stealing the exhibits and replacing them with copies. By then, Penny's already placed tracking devices on most of the exhibits, leading to confusion when they're shown as gone even though she can see them. In "All That Glitters", M.A.D. is trying to steal the City of Gold by replacing it brick-by-brick with gold painted blocks. It turns out the city of gold they were stealing, was itself a replica made of fool's gold, that the ancient builders used to hide the real City of Gold.

Spot the Imposter
 Inspector Gadget / int_9c6da41b
comment
Spot the Imposter: Dr. Claw hired a Master of Disguise named Presto Change-O in the episode "The Infiltration" to infiltrate a police conference disguised as Gadget to eavesdrop as a spy. The audience can tell he's not the real Gadget due to his slightly paler skin, evil-looking eyes and stereotypical British Teeth, though other characters are fooled by his disguise. When the real Gadget confronts Presto Change-O in the conference room, no one can tell who the real Gadget is until our hero stands next to Chief Quimby. Gadget's mallet activates by itself and bonks Chief Quimby on the head, and the Chief immediately orders that the other guy be arrested, since the one next to him is obviously the real Gadget. Earlier in the episode, Presto Change-O is introduced as disguising himself as Dr. Claw and the audience is led to believe that this was the actual Dr. Claw. But you know something is off when Dr. Claw's legs are shown.

Hyperspace Arsenal: Apparently, many of Gadget's gadgets, such as the Mallet, the Sail, the Copter, the Phone and many more are actually all kept in his hat. And then there's Brain, who seemingly carries around an array of disguises despite being a dog with no visible means of holding his outfits.

A Nuclear Error: One episode, "Down on the Farm", features an attempt to fire an American nuclear missile at a city. See the entry for the reason why this is nonsense (said episode has said missile stationed in a farm silo as sort of a parody).

Continuity Nod: In the episode "The Amazon", we are introduced to Professor Von Slickstein, the scientist that gave Gadget his gadgets. He later returns in the episodes "Tyrannosaurus Gadget", "Gadget's Roma", and "Gadget's Clean Sweep" to help Inspector Gadget, Penny, and Brain go back in time to prevent M.A.D. agent Thelma Botkin from killing Gadget's ancestors, although in those episodes Slickstein has a different voice and his name is pronounced differently (Slick-STEEN instead of Slick-STINE). In "Funny Money", Gadget mentions wanting to cook his specialty using blueberries and cabbage, which he previously tried to do in "Gone Went The Wind". Brain's persisting fear of ghosts from "The Haunted Castle" returns in the Season 2 episode "Ghost Catchers." Likewise Penny, who thoroughly got over her fear in the former episode, remains totally adamant that ghosts do not exist, the same as her Uncle.

Leitmotif: Examples include the main theme (Gadget's theme), Penny's theme, Brain's theme, Claw's theme, the Cuckoo Clock theme, the chase theme, and several Recurring Riffs not associated with a particular character or event. Some of the more commonly used background music shared something in common with some background music from Shera Princess Of Power. Not surprising since both shows had the same composers, Haim Saban and Shuki Levy. Several pastiches of real songs were used, in fact the main theme is based on In The Hall of the Mountain King. "Petite Sophie" from the French soundtrack is Penny's theme with lyrics added.

Brain can also be a rather cheerful and enthusiastic assistant when not suffering under Gadget's aforementioned incompetence, or a Nervous Wreck driven to wit's end by his abuse. It's worth noting these two character examples were sometimes actually reversed in a few early episodes, with Gadget being semi competent and occasionally annoyed by Brain's bumbling.

Robot Me: "Doubled Agent" had M.A.D. come out with a robotic double of Inspector Gadget, complete with functional gadgets and the voice of Don Adams speaking in a Machine Monotone.

Highly-Conspicuous Uniform: Agents of M.A.D. often wear jumpsuits with the M.A.D. logo emblazoned on the chest in public. Despite this, Gadget never realizes that they are his enemies. In fact, the M.A.D. logo is often highly conspicuous on all sorts of items like cards, lunch boxes, vehicles, etc. Doctor Claw must have a top-notch graphic design team on his payroll.

Karma Houdini: Dr. Claw always gets away no matter what, although it is sometimes averted (e.g., in "Gone Went The Wind", he gets caught in the explosion of the Sneezooka while making his getaway and is trapped at the bottom of the arctic waters at the end of the episode). There were also some episodes in the first season where the M.A.D. Agent of The Week was not seen or mentioned as being arrested by the end of the episode, such as The Rat in "M.A.D. Trap". Things got worse in the second season, which mainly consisted of three-episode story arcs with the same M.A.D. Agents, each one (explicitly shown) avoiding capture in the end (The Great Wambini, Dr./Professor Dummkopf, Dr. Spectrum, Dr. Null and Dr. Void, Thelma Botkin). Only two agents in the second season were ever arrested: The Ninja in "The Capeman Cometh" and Dr. Noodleman in "Gadget's Gadgets" (both appeared in just one episode each).

The episodes animated by Wang Film Productions also had their own set of stock footage, in one case even using the aforementioned clip of the Gadgetmobile in "Smeldorado."

Not only does he show awareness of what's happening to him, but he also manages to save Penny AND Brain, PLUS his gadgets were working perfectly. If he showed this level of competence all the time, he'd be a force to be reckoned with.

Canada Does Not Exist
 Inspector Gadget / int_c0965210
comment
There's a chance that Metro City is somewhere in Canada. In the 2015 CGI series, Chief Quimby is Canadian, with a apir of tiny Candaian flags on his desk. The first season was co-produced by the Canadian studio Nelvana, and Metro City is shown to be so generic that either an American or a Canadian kid could imagine it as being in their neck of the woods. One episode, "Tree Guesses", is explicitly set in the Canadian wilderness.note At the beginning of the episode, Penny says: "What lovely scenery in Canada! I'm so glad you rented a cottage here, Uncle Gadget!" This comment could be taken to indicate that they have come over from the United States. Or it could simply serve to indicate the Canadian setting explicitly for that episode, without negating that Metro City is also in Canada. A middle-of-the-road possibility is that the comment was inserted deliberately in order to obscure the question of which country Metro City is located in.

New Powers as the Plot Demands: "Go-Go-Gadget__!" Granted being Gadget, they were only useful to the plot in a handful of instances. Downplayed. For the most part, Gadget pulls from an established bag of tricks. He rarely pulls out something new for the situation.

Somebody Set Us Up The Bomb: The opening credits end with Gadget sneaking up on Dr. Claw's chair, turning it around, and handcuffing himself to Dr. Claw's wrist—only to discover that it is a fake arm attached to the chair and that the chair has an Incredibly Obvious Bomb sitting on it.

Shout-Out
 Inspector Gadget / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: In the episode "The Bermuda Triangle", Gadget mistakes a disguised Brain for an alien and attempts to communicate to him by using a keyboard. In "Birds of a Feather," Gadget does a sort-of impression of Woody Woodpecker. "Ghost Catchers": You get three guesses, and the first two don't count. As stated above in Expy, "Focus on Gadget" has a nod to 2001: A Space Odyssey by featuring an artificial intelligence named Harold, who is a more benevolent version of HAL 9000. In "Follow That Jet", Gadget is dropped through a chute riding a missile in a way similar to Dr. Strangelove.

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Bounces around with Gadget himself. Sometimes no one seems to notice Gadgets obviously strange appendages, sometimes onlookers stare with a confused expression.

When Penny appears to her uncle at the end of an episode, Gadget says "Penny?" but never reprimands her for not staying home - even if he's on the other side of the world from Metro City.

Company Cross References: The second season features numerous references to Heathcliff & the Catillac Cats, another DiC Entertainment animated series from around the same time... Sometimes Heathcliff or the Catillac Cats would appear on a TV (Penny and Brain watch the Catillac Cats on TV in a scene in "The Great Wambini's Seance"). Penny is shown to have a Riff-Raff stuffed animal in "The Incredible Shrinking Gadget." A person attending a costume party in "Ghost Catchers" is dressed up as Heathcliff. When Gadget sleep-drives the Gadget Van through a junkyard as Brain holds on, they just avoid hitting Hector and Wordsworth! Many incidental/one-off characters appearing in the second season would resemble characters appearing in Heathcliff, with the rounded designs and Conjoined Eyes. In addition, Heathcliff and the Catillac Cats would contain numerous references to Inspector Gadget as well.

Dub Name Change: Penny and Brain are named "Sophie" and "Finot" in the French version of the show. For some reason, the characters bear their French names in the German version too. Probably because the French dub was the basis for some other European dubs. A first Italian dub in the 1980s was based on it, while a newer dub in 1993 was based on the original version and restored the names with the exception of Brain, who was renamed "Bravo".

Flanderization: In the pilot episode, Gadget was buffoonish and oblivious but still semi-competent, observant enough to neutralise most of MAD's direct traps throughout the episode, with Penny a not-so-helpless Tagalong Kid who secretly helps against Claw's final most deadliest trap. Besides a handful of early episodes, the series after exaggerates Gadget to be clueless against even the most pathetic of MAD traps, with Penny privately solving the entire crime besides cases Gadget's bumbling inadvertently helps.

Monster of the Week: Dr. Claw had a new special MAD agent almost every week, who would try to carry out their assignment, get arrested, and never be seen again. Averted in Season 2 somewhat, in which most of the new M.A.D. agents appear in three episode story arcs and are never arrested. Examples are The Great Wambini and the Lesser Wambini, Dr. Dummkopf, Dr. Spectrum, the Creepy Twins Null and Void who cause mischief (IN SPACE!), and Thelma Botkin.

Forgotten Superweapon: Oh, once an episode a loyal viewer can think of a gadget that Gadget could have used which would have saved him some time. The Gadget laser is one incredibly underused gadget, but it is a kid's show.

 Inspector Gadget / int_f05444a4
comment
Once per Episode: Chief Quimby has the self-destructing message blow up in his face. One interesting twist to the Self-Destructing message was in M.A.D. Trap where Inspector Gadget gives Quimby a note asking "Have you got any assignments for me?" Followed by the "This Message will Self-Destruct" warning. Quimby freaks out, but loses it when nearby pigeons peck at it. Quimby tries to shoo em away, only to get caught in the explosion. "Health Spa" and "Gadget's Replacement" are the only episodes without a self-destructing message, though Quimby still ends up hurt due to Gadget's incompetence. Quimby lampshades it in "Health Spa":

Vinyl Shatters: Seen in "A Star is Lost," when Gadget, Penny and rock star Rick Rocker attempt to escape M.A.D.'s music warehouse; they run through a room with many LP albums on shelves, and robotic arms that throw the records at our heroes running through as they shatter against the wall. They get through safely, but Gadget says he needs a word with the owner of the place about proper record care.

Averted in Season 2 somewhat, in which most of the new M.A.D. agents appear in three episode story arcs and are never arrested. Examples are The Great Wambini and the Lesser Wambini, Dr. Dummkopf, Dr. Spectrum, the Creepy Twins Null and Void who cause mischief (IN SPACE!), and Thelma Botkin.

Never Say "Die"
 Inspector Gadget / int_f51c5f3c
comment
Never Say "Die": "Finish off", "Destroy", "Put to sleep permanently", "Dispose of", etc. were used in place of "Kill". Occasionally averted, for example, when Dr. Claw offers Rick Rocker "a life or death contract", while he and Penny are Strapped to an Operating Table in "A Star is Lost". One memorable aversion, from "The Coo-Coo Clock Caper", when Penny is in a deathtrap that will activate at five o'clock.

Beleaguered Assistant: Poor, poor Brain... Subverted in a few episodes when Gadget is the one who saves Brain. Notable examples include Photo Safari (when he saves himself, Penny and Brain from crashing after MAD agents sabotage their plane), MAD Trap (when he saves himself, Penny and Brain from being burned alive by a fire), The Bermuda Triangle (when he uses his copter to escape from an exploding ship and takes a disguised Brain with him), The Great Divide (when he saves himself and Brain from being crushed by a cave-in), Did You Myth Me and Tree Guesses (in both episodes, Gadget thinks the disguised Brain is an enemy agent and catches him before he'd fall to his death).

Go-Go Enslavement: In "Movie Set", when Penny is captured she's dolled up like a princess. Justified in this case as they were pretending to film a movie, and having a kidnapped girl in her regular street clothes would be out of place.

Pictorial Letter Substitution: At the end of this cartoon series' intro song, the title character falls into place on the title card, acting as a substitute for the "I" in Inspector. He's upside-down, of course, because he's one klutzy detective.

Master of Disguise: In the "Infiltration" episode, M.A.D.'s undercover specialist Presto Change-O. Also, depending on interpretation, Brain. While his disguises appear quite unconvincing to the audience, they fool literally everyone in the show. (Not just Gadget, who can admittedly be fairly oblivious to reality at times.) And that holds true whether he's impersonating a lion, a hula girl or a military police officer.

comment
Artistic License – Economics: Despite what Penny says, Dr Claw's plan in one episode to get a formula to change lead into gold would not destabilize the world economy, as most of the world is not on the gold standard. However, giving the enormous amount of lead that Dr Claw had been stockpiling, if the formula had actually worked, he'd have ended up with enough gold to seriously distort its market value.

 Inspector Gadget / int_fdc4fab4

Depending on the Writer: The extent of Gadget's bumbling, in some episodes he nears success if not for one particular blunder or misunderstanding, in others he's outright Too Dumb to Live. Brain can also be a rather cheerful and enthusiastic assistant when not suffering under Gadget's aforementioned incompetence, or a Nervous Wreck driven to wit's end by his abuse. It's worth noting these two character examples were sometimes actually reversed in a few early episodes, with Gadget being semi competent and occasionally annoyed by Brain's bumbling.
