Netflix is expanding its slate of children’s programming with its acquisition of the U.S. rights to an _Inspector Gadget_ reboot that has already aired in Europe, _USA Today_ reports. Previously a 1980s cartoon and a 1999 live-action movie with Matthew Broderick, _Inspector Gadget_‘s latest incarnation features new technology and a new 3-D animated look for the cartoon character. The 26 episodes will debut on the U.S. version of Netflix in March, with premiere dates for other foreign Netflix territories to be announced at a later date. “We think that kids are going to love the show,” said Erik Barmack, Netflix’s vice president of global independent content, “but it’s also going to get some co-viewing because there is a generation of parents who grew up on the original.” That’s not all Netflix has planned to reach the young ones — or people who grew up in the ’80s and ’90s. The streaming service also announced that a remake of the British cartoon _Danger Mouse,_ about a crime-fighting secret agent rodent, will premiere in the spring of 2016\. Netflix also has revamped versions of _The_ _Magic School Bus and_ _Popples_ in the works. \[[_USA Today_](http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2015/02/25/exclusive-netflix-orders-reboot-of-inspector-gadget/23968171/?hootPostID=05f3b7d3b890b04477970a44e79e2487 "undefined")\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3722030/netflix-inspector-gadget-reboot/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3722030/netflix-inspector-gadget-reboot/"},"headline":"Inspector Gadget Reboot Coming to Netflix","datePublished":"2015-02-25T16:14:36.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T04:42:13.558Z","description":"Go go gadget streaming","url":"https://time.com/3722030/netflix-inspector-gadget-reboot/","keywords":["Television","Netflix"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta0c436135066b6d3/698780e2524fc05bc1deca17/inspector-gadget-netflix.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nolan Feeney","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/nolan-feeney/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta0c436135066b6d3/698780e2524fc05bc1deca17/inspector-gadget-netflix.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Inspector Gadget on Netflix","caption":"Inspector Gadget on Netflix","creditText":"DHX Media/Netflix","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3722030/netflix-inspector-gadget-reboot/","name":"Inspector Gadget Reboot Coming to Netflix"}}]}] ```
