The Beaver Family Show

The Beaver Family Show is a American animated series on Disney XD. Created by Craig McCracken and Lauren Faust, and developed by Tom Ruegger, Sherri Stoner, Deanna Oliver and Doug Langdale, the show is co-produced by Amblin Television and Disney Television Animation.

The series is structured as a variety show, with the main feature being the adventures of the title characters, the Beavers, which consists of George (the father), Margaret (the mother) and Logan & Lola (the two twins), and their friends, a crazy cat obsessive with driving cars (but he usually crashing them in the process), a serious bear and his two children, and a dim-witted, but good-natured, dog. The main adversaries in most of their adventures are the Weasel Gang led by the villainous Winkie Weasel and his dim-witted brother Thomas. Supporting segments include Spy Squirrels (a family of super spy squirrels), Inspector Bones (a bumbling French police inspector), Honest John (a Top Cat-based segment starring the titular fox con artist from Pinocchio) and Dick Rangers (a idiotic intergalactic crimefighter and his team), among others.

The show is notable for being one of Disney XD's most successful shows, and one of the most long-running series in the TV animation history, along with The Flinstones, The Simpsons, SpongeBob SquarePants and South Park.

Animation
This show (unlike Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and Wander Over Yonder, both of which are animated in Adobe Flash) is animated traditionally at overseas animation studios Tokyo Movie Shinsha, Wang Film Productions, and Rough Draft Studios. The show had a higher production value than most standard television animation. It has a digital cel count that was more than double that of most television animation. The series has about 25,000 digital drawings per episode instead of the standard 10,000, making it unique in that characters move more fluidly.

Music
The series' soundtrack is composed by veteran composer Walter Murphy, better known by his work on Family Guy and American Dad!, being strongly influenced by Disney's classic shorts music.
