The series is a whole different continuity than the comics, so I guess it's understandable if DuckTales took place in the 1980's. 
As fun as the series is and as much as I love it, I still prefer the stories of the comics.
That panel I posted of Scrooge's grave isn't from an actual comic, but was drawn and published as a reply to the question, "Whatever happened to Scrooge McDuck?" Apparently some of the artists and writers played it off as a joke, but Don Rosa, being the serious duck artist that he is and as avidly as he sorts out history and continuity, took it very seriously. For being in their 70's, I don't think Donald and Daisy look all that bad.
Interesting that they finally got married at some point.
