Wacky Races is an American children's animated television series created by Rebecca Himot and Tramm Wigzell. It is a reboot of the 1968 Hanna-Barbera animated series of the same name. The show debuted in 2017 on Boomerang's video-on-demand service in the United States. Wacky Races was picked up for a second season.
Summary[]
The series features the return of characters from the original Wacky Races program, including Dick Dastardly, Muttley, Penelope Pitstop, Peter Perfect and the Gruesome Twosome. Several new characters were introduced as well, including I. Q. Ickly, Brick Crashman, P. T. Barnstorm, and Pandora Pitstop.
While the reboot stays true to the original series, it also focuses on the Racers' personal lives; storylines are added and there usually is no actual winner or loser at the end of each race. There is also meta-humor and fourth wall breaking.
