When X-Men TAS first aired in Germany, all the way back in 1993, I immediately fell in love with the show, the characters, the story, the world of the X-Men. I became a fan that day.

Now, 27 years later, I'm a fully grown man and still a fan. When I heard that they were going to continue this show, I was worried. With all the bad stuff Marvel has put out in recent years I couldn't imagine this show being anything more than mediocre. I expected a preachy show, that focused more on ideology and the current Zeitgeist. Boy, was I wrong.

X-Men '97 has superior writing. The dialogue is excellent, sometimes almost shakespearean. It comes with a fist full of nostalgia, easter eggs and fan service. The animation is pretty good, better than expected. Aaand...it has the theme song!

This show is everything I wanted and so much more. I love it.

If you are an edgy teen or never moved out of parent's basement...if the only things that make you laugh are sex jokes and violence...if you buy your clothes at Hot Topic...if you like like bad animation...then this show is exactly what you are looking for.

Some dude (or chick?) from Deviant Art got enough money to make their own show and boy, does it show. It just proves that in this day and age anyone with an internet connection can have their own cartoon shows.

Every single joke is predictable, the songs are cathcy but forgetable, the character design is horrendous and every other word is a swear. Guys, they have a character that pretty much is walking talking sex and drug joke.

Poor Keith David. He takes every job nowadays for a hot meal.

This episode just shows, that this show has become unwatchable. It's almost as bad as The Simpsons now.
