I watched the Fred Ladd interviews the other day, & recall him saying that with the NBC $ received for the 1st season, the animators were able to increase the fluidity of the animation in the 2nd season.

Although there are a few episodes that stand out as lacking fluidity, the 1st season as a whole did not seem lacking it. As often as I watch it, I still cannot recall much difference. Can anyone else see the improvements? :D

The ease of motion from frame to frame in animation. Like it to water, the ulltimate goal of all animators is to produce a film where you don't have jiggled gaps and skips in character motion.

I think with computers they have deffinatly achieved their dream.
