For Gargoyles, Weisman undeniably drew heavily from the works of William Shakespeare. It should come as no surprise that his presumed fluency in classic literature would bleed through in any of his works. Gargoyles series creator and co-producer, Greg Weisman, is a former English composition and writing teacher. No shade, but Gargoyles was simply operating on a different level - even compared to cartoons with a similar tone. It was airing alongside shows like DuckTales, Goof Troop, and Bonkers in its programming block. For Disney at the time, however, Gargoyles was a stark departure from their usual fare. All of them are dynamic, action-packed cartoons geared toward young viewers, but they also have a self-serious tone and a flair for the dramatic in most episodes. Gargoyles was in good company with shows like Batman: The Animated Series and X-Men airing on Fox Kids. Yet has surprisingly familiar roots in the works of William Shakespeare. It’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. They wax philosophical and struggle with the inherent mistrust between their kind and humanity. These “monsters” aren’t so scary when they’re not trying to be. It’s dark and brooding, but also at times tender and sentimental. Flipping through the channels, you see it on the Disney Afternoon programming block: Gargoyles. Backpack off, shoes off, and, before the front door closes, your butt is on the couch and the TV is on.
