I agree! Great!

Reboot is REALLY the best TV series. Beast Wars had a decent story line and setting through the entire series, but individual episodes had lots to be desired; ill conceived concoction of questionable outings that I am certain I have have seen before.

Yet with Reboot you dont know what you get.

Also it's filled with In-jokes and puns. Characters with names like "Dot Matrix." References to pop-culture ;there is a guy dressed like "Where's Waldo", one like Indiana Jones and once a woman who resembled a certain pregnant female sherrif from Brainard, North Dekota.

Hillarious.

But the series also have a dark side which becomes prominent during the third season. It is not as sophisticated as Beast Machines, Action Man or other MAINFRAME prodcutions, but is still great, even though it's showing its age.
