The Aquabats! Super Show!

This is the most godly show out there. The Aquabats! produced their show quite effectively, because they created the most hilarious, thrilling, and adorable show ever with music that stays in my head for weeks at a time. <3 Christian, Jimmy, Ricky, Crash, and Ian <3 They are all phenomenal. Please watch this Show! If you like music, action, comedy, laughs, outrageousness, and pure joy, you will love this show. It is odd yes, but so am I. 13 episodes in the first season, me and thousands of others are impatiently waiting to hear if they are making a second season which they better. Long story short. This is the best show you will ever watch.

The Aquabats were a small pop-punk band with ska influences who started back in the mid-90's. Their shows were one part music and one part stage show where they fought monsters and villains in a rather comedic fashion. It brought comparisons to the old Adam West Batman series for good reason namely it was silly, campy fun with some solid music.

For years they toured and even shot a pilot for a TV series with the help of Bobcat Goldthwait playing up their superhero personas as well as featuring their music. To this date only the opening exists out there for the public to see and the pilot itself didn't attract any attention.

Fast forward to 2012 and they finally have their TV show. Members came and went but M.C. Bat Commander and Crash McLarson are still there. They're joined by Jimmy the Robot, Ricky Fitness and Eagle "Bones" Falconhawk. Each of them, with the exception of Bat Commander, have some kind of super power. For example Ricky Fitness is in great shape and can perform feats of strength and speed for a short period of time, Jimmy the Robot is a literal robot and Eagle Falconhawk can summon the spirit of a bird and fly using mystical wings. They use these powers to help them defeat the villain of the week or for comedic purposes.

This is all done very tongue in cheek but played straight like the old Batman series was. It's not a great show and some people might not get it, but if you have a sense of the absurd and don't take things too seriously you should enjoy it.

When you watch the action packed opening of this show you think you are in for the greatest show ever but it's a bit misleading. The episodes tend to be lacking in action with an abundance of bad jokes but the bad guys are always great. This was supposed to be for kids but I doubt most kids would get it. If you can find it, give it a chance.

I think this show is really great and its a shame of how long it lasted. This show has the perfect amount of satireness, comedy, and action. This show is definetly underrated. The level of detail and effort into the costumes, animation, and sets are really good too, the music is decent too! My only complaint is that the show didn't last for long and it got cut pretty quickly (I'm not counting anything on their youtube channel). I really do recommend this show.

I liked it! Fun, joyful, and imaginative! I adore Parker Jacobs and his artwork and cartoons contributions done for The Aquabats! Super Show!
