The Hardy Boys Undercover Brothers: The New Case Files

[Hardy Boys UB Fan]

Should I give them a try? 

[MacGyver]

Sure- why not?

[MacGyver]

I like how that video made the scenes from the graphic novels look animated- it got me thinking how cool a new Hardy Boys cartoon could be if done in a similar style. (Well, not with comic book panels being flipped back and forth like a flipbook like they did on the 1960s Spider-Man cartoon of course- lol.)

[SDLagent]

Your not the only person who thinks that. I wouldn't mind a Hardy Boys cartoon, either.

[hardygirl847]

I'd be totally for that!!

Would be their voices??

[MacGyver]

Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy, of course.

[SDLagent]

I guess that might work. As long as cartoon Joe doesn't sing.

[hardygirl847]

Don't we want them to sound like teenagers though?

And yeah, Joe is not supposed to sing. I agree.

[MacGyver]

Why not? Joe's sung in the books- He sings a great little tune at the start of Revenge of the Desert Phantom

(But you know, I was kinda kidding about Parker and Shaun- although it would be neat if they had a voice for some characters somewhere. Maybe for Fenton Hardy and Chief Collig or something.)

[SDLagent]

Or, just to shake things-up, they could voice the villains.

I guess that might work. As long as cartoon Joe doesn't sing.

Joe sang in the 60's cartoon.

[MacGyver]

Well, the singing then isn't really necessarily part of Joe's character in the books- but it would be nice to have one episode of any new Hardy Boys show include a singing performance from Joe just as tribute to Shaun Cassidy on the '70s live action show.

[SDLagent]

Actually, it wouldn't be nice.

[MacGyver]

Okay, well I would like it anyway. (come on- just for 1 episode.) They would probably wind up investigating a mystery surrounding a rock concert soon enough anyway.

[SDLagent]

I think a more fitting tribute would be to have one of the boys turn on the radio to one of Cassidy's singles and have Joe mention how he can't stand Cassidy's music.
