I recently got into the 1980's Inspector Gadget TV series.

Inspector Gadget is so clumsy and clueless, he makes my brain hurt, but the villain, Dr. Claw, is the reason I wanted to watched the show. Normally I don't find it funny when people are angry and short-tempered, but the way that Frank Welker does Claw's voice makes it hard for me not to laugh!

Anybody else know the TV series?

That was my favorite show when I was a kid. Very silly! When I got a little older, I enjoyed watching reruns of Get Smart on Nick at Nite and realized that Don Adams was playing basically the same character in both! (aside from the gadgets)

It was one of my favourite TV shows as a kid...
...along with Trap Door, Dogtanian, Raggy Dolls, and Danger Mouse.

I especially liked Inspector Gadget because he looks like my dad :)

Frank Welker wasn't available to do Claw's voice for a few episodes. It was very easy to notice the difference.

Netflix has a lot of the episodes if not all of them.
