Trivia:

Cancelled because of low ratings in May 2000 after nearly two years on the air in syndication. The failure of the new Voltron franchise brought CGI animation studio Netter Digital to bankruptcy.

Goofs:

Plot holes: The original series showed Arus as located in the Dinubian (or Diamond) Galaxy in the Far Universe while Earth was in the Near Universe (with the Vehicle Voltron defenses). Here, Arus and Earth are incorrectly claimed to be in the same, unnamed galaxy; its Azure, Cerulean, Crimson, and Coral Quadrants that were the Dinubian Galaxy's are referred to when effecting either planet.

Movie Connections:

Follows "Voltron: Defender of the Universe" (1984)

Totally rocks...

It's more than a continuation of the previous Voltron shows. It has plot, interesting character developments, and a whole new twist. It's like the original, only better!
