Alien Dawn

I viewed the new NickToon series Alien dawn last night. It was the pilot episode but set the stage for the series. I am quite excited to have a show with some suspenseful intrigue combined with real life school situations. I look forward to the show now each Friday night. Boris really made the show for me with his true to life emotions and expressions. It was comical how he kept up the resistance to the bully while being placed head first into a garbage can! True passion! The story line narrated through the comic strip is a great concept. Not sure what to expect in each scene. The story was developing throughout the show. Can't wait for the next episode.

Finally a kids show I can get excited about. This is the first live action series in decades that got my attention. I just hope the rest of the season is as good as the pilot. If it is, this show is going to be a classic. I loved the characters and the fact that it was shot in New York. I love that it's not dumbed down to children. Kids are a lot smarter than the industry gives them credit for! I would have killed to have a cool show like this when I was a kid. I watched it at a friends house and he has an eleven year old son. He recorded it and watched it again the next day. He got super excited about the little clues that seem to be in it. I know he's going to watch it next week to see if the clues pan out. If they do, this show is going to be like the next Star Trek. On a side note, I can't understand why anyone would give this show one star. That's just crazy. They must of thought they were voting on the movie from a which is completely different thing.

First thoughts: this kids/teens show has no business being this good. I would have loved it as a teen and enjoyed still as an adult. Discovered this gem on Tubi in 2024. I loved the artwork, the special effects, and the storyline was engaging. I appreciated how it let me escape our current global woes and imagine a battle to save Earth (rather than our current direction with Earth). It's a serious enough topic, but done in a way that doesn't feel so heavy. I laughed and caught myself wanting more, not caring to guess what should happen next. The artwork is quite impressive and is one of the reasons I turned to IMDB for more information on this show, 'Alien Dawn'. This show could be a precursor to a youth's love for sci-fi. These past few years, shows thought to be forgotten have gotten reboots or their stories completed. Would be nice to see this one get the same treatment. We're streaming more these days and changing the landscape of which motion pictures are filmed and presented and consumed. Kudos to this team for making this story and letting me check out of reality for a bit.

Great Action! Great Fun! If everyone had a Mom as beautiful as Hillary Greer the world would be a better place!!!! I thought that moving from the comic world to the real world and back was a great deal of fun. The young cast seemed to be well directed and seemed to be having a great time filming this piece. It was a great story line seeing the main character going from frustration and disappointment with is pre-occupied father to a realization that maybe just Maybe he was the hero that all the"nerds" had the faith that he was. Slowly but surely the mystery builds and holds your interest until our young hero realizes that his Dad was perhaps the special person others thought he was. I can't wait until next week!!!!!!

Both my husband and I enjoyed the show very much. The comic book set up going back and forth with reality really kept it interesting. The characters (teen boys) were cute and believable. Boris was the perfect friend who knows what to do even though he was a bit of a nerd. He is very likable and adorable. I think there was a movie called Alien Dawn done a few years back and this show might be confused with that mediocre movie... I hope not. I don't usually watch Nick Tunes but we saw a preview and decided to check it out. Glad we did! I was a little confused at the beginning of the show but then figured out who the speaker was and then understood what was going on. I loved the geek friends of Boris... they had all the answers. The only thing I wasn't really good with was the music playing during the skateboarding scenes. It reminded me of that Flight of the Bumble Bee music. My husband is a little deaf and had the TV volume up too high so that music got on my nerves. If the volume was down, I probably wouldn't even have noticed that much. We are looking forward to the next episode!
