Am I the only one who thinks this was quite possibly the coolest and funniest cartoon show in years?
 
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
 
Yes.

Ok, good. I've finally found a show that I like that no one else likes, and I can overhype it to all my friends. I've been waiting for this for years.

I wouldn't quite go as far as the coolest and funniest in years (I worship ZIM!) but Megas XLR is a pretty awesome cartoon on many levels. I liked the one with area 51 and the cheesy 50s-style giant robot. Also the parodies of Voltron and Sailor Moon.

Futuristic Red Head

Giant Robots

Chubby video game addict, slurpee loving hero.

Complete disregard for amount of destruction unleased.

Catchy theme song.

It's great. Very great. And the first four episodes are on On Demand through Comcast. Yay!

And you wonder why I'm staying in the other room.
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
I don't wonder, actually.

You're antilove.

Why do you hate love, Jamie? What has it ever done to you? Why can't you just learn to accept and love love?

Only when it brings me chocolate.
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
If I had a giant robot car, I would get you chocolate every night.

But you have to be a future space babe, in return. And I want a catchy theme song.

Do I get a cape?

Comcast OD? How do I get to it on the On Demand menu?
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
Hit The Ondemand Button > Kids > Cartoon Network > Action > Pick Episode

You have to have at least Standard Cable and a digital package, though. So if you have standard and you have access to On Demand, you have these.

And yes, Jamie. A cape is bonus points. Kinky bonus points. [Wink]
 
Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :
 
Score! But not NOW.
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
Yes. 'Score' is exactly what I was thinking, too.

You dig giant robots
We dig giant robots
Chicks dig giant robots...

I love this show...

Did you see the send up of "Battle of the Planets"? awesome stuff...

What? are you guys like 9 years old?

What, you're too good to appreciate a comic cartoon?

I'm a little disappointed. I thought this thread was going to be about a hot Corvette-based Cadillac sports car.
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
Now... imagine that car on top of a 40 story blue mech with flaming decals and rockets and you only get half of the sweetness of the show.

don't forget the chrome mudflap girls...
 
Posted by TheTick (Member # 2883) on :
 
NO CAPES!
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
Personal experience?
 
Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :
 
+1 for the "Incredibles" reference...
