Shows that feel likeDuckTales (1987–1990)
If you loved DuckTales, the closest series we have are My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (2010), The Fairly OddParents (2001) and Desperate Housewives (2004). All three share DuckTales' witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Girls (2012).
