Betty Boop (TV series)

Betty Boop is an American adventure comedy slapstick satire television series produced by Paramount Animation and based on the Fleischer Studios franchise of the same name. The series is reminiscent to the original one-reeler shorts, however, it omits the mature nature of it for the targeted audience.

The voice cast includes Carolyn Lawrence as the titular character, with Maurice LaMarche and Dan Castellaneta reprising their roles from the film Betty Boop's Big Movie.

Development
The series was meant to introduced the franchise and characters to the public, along with introducing it to a new generation of people.

While the show has the same humor and style of the original shorts, the mature adult content had to be removed to please the target demographic. This change had an effect on the titular Betty, who had to have her garter belt removed and her dress longer.

The series also showed less musical numbers in most episodes, and all episodes each have three 7-minute segments to fill in the 20-minute runtime.
