I remember that an old friend of mine once told me about a lost pilot episode of Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures that never aired. Apparently, it was too controversial for TV—even for that series. Anybody know where I can get more info on this or even clips?

This is a rabbit hole I'd love to explore! There's almost no info directly available online, but try university archives that have animation sections or look into old interviews with Ralph Bakshi. Sometimes digging through 80s TV guide issues or old comic convention tapes can lead to clues.

Hey, this sounds super interesting. Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures had Ralph Bakshi's unique and often controversial touch, so it’s no surprise the pilot might’ve been too much for TV. I’d suggest checking out animation conventions or reaching out to people who worked on the show.

Long-time animation fan here. If you’re talking about the pilot episode that dealt with heavy satire and mature themes, then yeah, it's likely it never aired due to network censorship. Sometimes industry insiders have clips, but they’re rare and hard to find.

I’ve been collecting old cartoons for years and I can confirm there’s mention of an unaired Mighty Mouse pilot in some circles. It’s almost like a ghost story among fans. Your best bet might be digging through old animation conferences or industry insider articles.

Wow, I had no idea there was a pilot episode that didn't air. Makes you wonder what was so controversial. The show's known for pushing boundaries. Maybe contact some animation historians or look for forums that talk about Ralph Bakshi's work?

You mean the lost pilot for Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures by Ralph Bakshi? Yeah, I've heard about that one. It was supposed to be more adult-themed, with some really controversial stuff that would never fly on TV. No idea if any clips are out there, though. Might be buried deep.
