Danger Mouse
Early test footage is being shown today or tomorrow. They just said "this weekend" but we're finally going to see the actual animation.

The reboot had way too many plots revolving around Penfold facing his fears or saving the day, they're probably pulling from that. It was like every time the show did it, they forgot and did it again thinking it was novel and broke the status quo. The proper way to write Penfold is to have his cowardice or his own hobbies save the day, not just make him do everything DM would do, otherwise you could just write DM doing it instead and the story would barely be any different. Or sometimes they just force Penfold to save the day by giving DM spontaneous nerfs/character flaws out of nowhere, and it's even more strange when they're one-off and never come up in the show again. When did DM ever lack empathy outside of the 1 episode saying he does?

Danger Mouse 100% kills people on missions almost every episode. Addressing that legit would've been a more entertaining "DM lacks empathy" plotline

Oh shit I just remembered there's a scene in Danger is Forever where some civilians are trapped on the London Eye and they aren't shown being rescued before DM shatters it into pieces

True. Actually, it's strange how it's not brought up considering the show doesn't shy away from dark humour like that, like Penfold saying DM murdered a bunch of 5 year old children in the first episode. Granted, that was a misunderstanding, not lack of empathy.

>>151096428
Not exactly. The trolley problem is about action vs inaction, plus those few lives don't NEED to be expendable or sacrificed for the many. DM isn't doing something noble by doing that, he's just being careless, it's entirely avoidable and everyone can be saved. I forget which episode but there was an episode that touched on this, where Squawkencluck told DM he never plans ahead to prevent excess destruction. But that was about him being impulsive and stupid, not lacking empathy for others.

I don't remember him directly killing anyone back then, but I know he often left Greenback and Stiletto to die in whatever peril the toad had gotten them in instead of bothering to arrest them. And that probably only changed in the new series because the agents started getting incentivised to compete for who can arrest the most villains with the seemingly international Agent of the Month award. In the reboot series he's gone as far as rescuing villains and he refused to hit Ian in one of the games because "it would be like punching a kitten." The trade-off being he lets an insane amount of harm come to the people, evidently including children, he's supposed to protect. In a twist of irony it can be one of the more implicit ways of showing how selfish DM truly is now, he'll 9/11 half of London just to treat the baddies with kid gloves because he needs them to acquire status and praise.

I don't have many complaints about the fandom, especially compared to others, but I've always been baffled by everyone adopting the fanon surname "O'Malley" for DM. I don't know where it comes from or why it stuck when it's such a poor fit for someone undoubtedly from a well off British background. It sounds so chavvy or Irish. I hear it and think of the sleazeball street cat from The Aristocats.
