- Free Willy (TV series)
"Free Willy" is an
animated television series , inspired by the1993 film of the same name.The
television series was produced byRegency Enterprises and the Canadian companyNelvana forWarner Bros. Studios . This show, which aired for two seasons (1994 -1995 ) on ABC, continues the adventures of Jesse and Willy, who were introduced in the film. The overarching storyline is reminiscent of "Moby-Dick ": an oil baron, known to the main characters only as a cyborg called "The Machine" until the final episode, loses his arm to Willy while committing an environmental atrocity and wants revenge upon "that rotten whale... and his boy".While the first season centered mostly around Willy and Jesse's adventures in the Misty Island Oceanic Reserve, the second season took them to the Arctic and back, with the group returning just in time for the Christmas special.
