And Gummi Bears....wow, it's been years since I've watched that show. That brings back memories.

I've read this info on several TV websites so unless it's a big lie everyone's spreading around, I'm assuming there is truth to this. Supposedly there was a lot of confusion when the energy Negaduck appeared and his relation to the "true" Negaduck. Especially since one of the VHS tapes is called "Birth of Negaduck".
Of course that birth is of the energy one. They wanted to bring him back to make it clear that they were 2 separate villains and because the electric Negaduck was a much more formidable enemy since he has super powers practically on the verge of rivaling DW's other big bad guys like Megavolt and Busrhoot.
The Paddywhack thing I hear a lot about, they even had an episode title for it called "Pranks for the memories". Weirdly enough My Gym Partner is a monkey used that title for an episode of theirs. Sadly though, even if DW were to come back Paddywhack's VA Hartman was killed and a lot of people don't know he voiced Paddywhack.
To me, The cartoons featured on the Disney afternoon were the culmination of the greatest cartoon shows Disney ever created. Duck Tales, Gummi Bears, Darkwing Duck, Tale Spin, Rescue Rangers, (and to a lesser extent) Goof Troop.
It wasn't a bad show but it wasn't my absolute favorite either.
I loved those shows, they were absolutely perfect, they were unique, funny, creative, and had excellent characters that you could never get tired of seeing week after week. Gummi bears has been a LOOOOONG time since I've seen, and while I have only bought the new DVD sets of Darkwing, Tale Spin, and Rescue Rangers, I'm seriously thinking about buying the Gummi sets.
Here's also some interesting trivia for ya, although I think I said this before, Gargoyles, Duck Tales, and Gummi bears are the ONLY Disney shows that ever got a true finale.
