Which episode was this?

It's been a very long time since I saw this episode, but there was a scene in which Rebecca almost fell into a fire and hung onto a rope to save herself. This was a scene that I remember, but I don't recall the plot. Does anyone remember what episode this is from?

Question for the fans

If I may ask, as a TaleSpin fan myself, how old were you when the show premiered?

Unfortunately, I was about a year old when the show started airing and was too young for the Disney Afternoon block, let alone TaleSpin on its own. Although I did eventually catch reruns on Toon Disney in the early 2000s and even once rented a TaleSpin tape at the same time.

Nevertheless, I rediscovered the show in the mid-2010s, and I think it holds up very well.

Thanks for reading!

What real-life weird planes from the 30s/40s do you think would fit right in with TaleSpin?

Think about it, over the years, even during the 1930s and 1940s, there had been some weird-looking planes. I'm sure that planes like those would fit right in with the setting of TaleSpin, which looks to take place like in the 1930s.

Me, I think something like the Chance-Vought XF5U-1 Flying Pancake would fit right in with the fictional universe of TaleSpin. Maybe also something like the XP-55 Ascender or the Kyushu J7W1 Shinden, planes like that.

Intro clips from which episodes?

I finally rewatched all of TaleSpin but there's still a whole bunch clips in the intro I can't remember seeing in the show. Of course I didn't always give it my full attention and it's possible I just missed some moments, but I was wondering if perhaps people know if it's a mix of episode clips and clips animated just for the intro. Or maybe someone has made a list matching the clips to episodes. I'd be happy with any information to satisfy my curiosity :D

Would you accept Talespin as a live action movie with humans?

I was showing Talespin to my niece the other day. I hadn't seen it since I was a little kid. When watching it I had a thought that it could be adapted into a action/adventure movie but have it be actual humans. The characters are great and having the animal/jungle book aesthetic is just a bonus so I don't feel a great deal of the shows magic would be lost in translation.

I feel today's cinema landscape is severely lacking in adventure movies and Talespin has a great setting and concept that is rife with adventure.

At the end it could even go slightly meta and have the crews exploits catch the attention of a writer and the cartoon is a retelling of the adventures had.

Do you feel this idea would work?

“A Spy in the Ointment” and Thembria

Is this supposed to be the episode in which Baloo first meets Spigot and Dunder? They act like they haven’t met before, but in earlier episodes they had already interacted. I know it’s just a kids’ show so I shouldn’t take it so seriously, but I find the continuity a bit odd lol
