:nono: Geeze, Its like everyone is cancel happy in TV land, not giving a crap about how many fan's the show has just to make room for crap, I've heard of this going on at CBS, CN, and UPN (Enterprise). And i think Megas would work perfectly if they bumped everything up one and got rid of Tom.... I mean.. who the heck likes this show? I've set down with a group of friends trying to find humor in it, but would have been better off watching an episode of something off Lifetime or rather have turned it and watched what ever speical PBS was showing at that time, you know that multi colored bar loud tone show is really awsome :eplus2: compaired to Tom.
Oh well
Death To Tom, Long Live Megas!!!!!!!

Outside of the talking dog VR Troopers was a pretty cool show

At first when I saw the promos, I thought "Wow.. another American attempt at making an anime-styled show... it'll suck" but after watching a few eps out of boredom, it wasn't actually as bad as i thought it would be.

The first season of VR troopers rocked, the second season is where it sucked HARD!

Yeah, when Ryan rescued his father and got an upgrade from Metalder to Shaider?
And O GODS THE AMERICAN GRIMLORD! You might as well have called the guy who played Emperor Palpatine.
And also, if it's one thing VR Troopers gave us, it was Sarah Joy Brown, aka Kaitlin. God, I so wanted her as a kid. She was gorgeous.

Megas is a dumb show but it makes no apologies for it. It's fun for what it is. Perfectly suitable programming for veggies and stoners.
I'd still catch reruns of it whenever and get some jollies from them. But the prospect of no more new episodes doesn't bother me at all. It's not like the show had any kind of compelling depth to it whatsoever.
All the episodes are essentially the same thing anyway. None of the characters ever evolved beyond the string of running gags that's been passed off as their 2-dimensional personalities. The majority of the plots never got past "bad guy sends giant thing to attack Megas". The only thing that ever differentiates one episode from the next was the geekhip series they decided to knock-off.
Last week on Megas XLR. Coop's hungry and dumb, Jamie's cowardly and sleazy and Kiva is annoyed with them both. Megas fights a bunch of guys that look like Gatchaman. The Chtutlu guys may or may not show up.
This week on Megas XLR. Coop's hungry and dumb, Jamie's cowardly and sleazy and Kiva is annoyed with them both. Megas fights a bunch of girls that look like Sailor Senshi. The Chtutlu guys may or may not show up.
Next week on Megas XLR. Coop's hungry and dumb, Jamie's cowardly and sleazy and Kiva is annoyed with them both. Megas fights a bunch of bots that look like Zakus. The Chtutlu guys may or may not show up.
Next week after that on Megas XLR. Coop's hungry and dumb, Jamie's cowardly and sleazy and Kiva is annoyed with them both. Megas fights a guy that looks like MODOK. The Chtutlu guys may or may not show up.
Etc...
I like watching giant robots **** **** up as much as the next guy. Hell, I grew up with Transformers, Voltron and Tranzor-Z burned into my very psyche. I've even seen the attrocious Robot Jox and liked it! But after awhile, even I need something more than "Hey! That guy looks like Megatron!" to keep coming back for more.
So thanks Megas. You were good for a laugh so may you rest happily in pop culture heaven between Danger Mouse and snap straps.

I don't have low self esteem.
Never watched it. It's been on Cartoon Network UK but I never found it interesting.
