i might be showing my age, but not only do i remember this TV movie being aired but I also remember every Saturday, Cartoon Network had “Cartoon Theatre”. They showed animated films like the classic Scooby-Doo movies, Land Before Time, Cats Don’t Dance, etc. my childhood in 1990s molded me into the cultured guy i am, now

Additionally, this film also marked the directorial debut of series creator Genndy Tartakovsky and one of the few remaining times Christine Cavanaugh voiced Dexter before she was replaced with Candi Milo. So if you decide to continue the series. Much like the ppg later on this show's animation with drastically change (not for the better unfortunately) and Dexter's Voice will notably change soon as well due to Christine Cavanaugh deciding to retire around 2001. Which was crazy at the time because she was pretty young at the time but she wanted to spend more time with her family and then later passed away in 2014. So Candi Milo replaces her as the Voice Dexter. and Nancy Cartwright would replace her as chuckie in rugrats. I believe Candi has gotten much better today doing the Voice. But back then it was noticeable. She didn't have the inflections that you come to recognize with Dexter's voice. The voice is much lighter. You notice it whenever you hear the ironic lines like *STUPID* or *SHUT UP* or *GET OUT OF MY LABORORY* I still think Candi milo was a great option and is the closely I've seen to Christine. but yeah, no one could ever truly replace her. She was Dexter and her voice is the one you think of when you think of this show. RIP to Christine. but after this gendy would shift he's focus to samurai jack, which I highly recommend you which it is amazing and some of his best work. the series was renewed for two seasons, which began airing on November 18, 2001. Due to Tartakovsky's departure, Chris Savino served as showrunner, and a new team at Cartoon Network Studios produced the series. After 26 episodes, the fourth season concluded on November 20, 2003.
