D&D; Dazzling and Destined to be a classic!, 26 May 2001
Author: jellyneckr

I saw DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS a few months ago on Fox Kids and I have to say that I think that DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS is probably one of the best cartoons of the 1980's. Not because it is fresh, funny, and original, but because the episodes are so well written and the show is filled with such strong characters. The show was dazzling with its fantasy action and memorable lines. It's too bad that Fox Kids cancelled DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS after only after a few episodes. It was such a great show for children!
