It's a shame what happened to them at the end of the day: Poor choices (no thanks to Andy Heyward), over saturation of shows, lack of original I.P.s (and even when they did create original material, it was almost never good. The one major exception that case being Inspector Gadget), and not to mention animation errors galore in their later shows. The Jean Chalopin Era (1971-87) will always be The Golden Years of DiC

In every city across the nation In almost every situation And every day's a celebration You can't top the Littles cause the Littles dont stop! 2nd season lyrics: Here come the Littles always running to and fro Here come the Littles they're living with you don't you know One day when Henry went away The Littles fell inside his suitcase He laid it down just halfway When he opened up his luggage, and the Littles jumped out They've been his best friends ever since He's kept a secret their existence Inside the walls they've always been You can't stop the Littles cuz the Littles don't stop!

It was all just hand-painted frame by frame afterwards. Outro on the other hand is almost all traditional 2D.
