Les Bio-Teens: Forces spéciales

Now I don't wanna be those whiny fans who whine about everything cause I am NOT one of them. Lab Rats and Mighty Med were one of the better shows on Disney XD. Don't get me wrong, Disney XD is just like Toon Disney and Jetix into one, and that led to a great variety of cartoons and nostalgic stuff

But then came 2016 (I have predicted the fact the 2016 will be the worst year, possibly even WORSE than 2014) and this sitcom...

Elite Force was...bad, but not awful. The characters have changed DRASTICALLY! And I don't mean that in a good way. The crossover was bad enough, but THIS?! Anyway, let's move on to the characters.

Chase - Normally, Chase is the smart one. But in the first episode, he becomes SO DUMB that he doesn't even know HOW (or why) super powers work. That's not the Chase I know. And he has the nerve to ask what shape shifters are. (YOU JUST LOOKED AT ONE, DAMMIT!) Oliver - Not much, except that Oliver to too dependent on Skylar Skylar - I don't really have a problem with her. Kaz - Kaz...is still Kaz. I wonder what his last name is. Bree - She's been character derailed the most. First she was sassy but sweet, now she's a bitch to her friends. REALLY?! In the latest episode, Need for Speed, she acts like a bitch to Skylar for USING HER SUPER SPEED TO SAVE A BABY! Donald - Oh my god, he sucks. Reboots aren't always good, but reboots can be. As long as you watch the original and study what their characters are. But this show didn't try. So, 4/10 for me. Disney, you better pick up the pace.

While unfinished, i loved mighty med, and lab rats. There are massive plot holes, and plot threads that need to be wrapped up in 2 movies, @disney+ needs to finish both of these..lucas Crushank is young enough to fill in for the role of brents character, and, i LOVED narutos voice actress trying to be a tough as nails character, it so totally fiiiiiits...anyway, disney needs to fill in the plot holes, gaps, and finish these with a movie or 2. So.. basically i loved the movie so much, i watched the first season of lab rats, and might watch the second season again, its funny, half the cast were on another show meant for adults XD.

The opening credits for Disney XD's first ever cross-over merger would have you believe that it has brought together the best parts of both; Lab Rats' action and Mighty Med's half decent plot for children's television shows. Unfortunately it is presently a sitcom about spoiled supers who bicker in a penthouse.

Mighty Med and Lab Rats were "bad TV" in that innocent and endearing way Disney have mastered to create shows endurable enough for mum & dad to stick with. Now with Elite Force the actors have grown (even in their craft, with some visibly muting their skills to keep it camp) and these 16-18 year old characters are constantly at odds, not with an enemy but with each other, and mum & dad are getting a headache. Entitlement seems to seep from their pores. Pausing to note that the casting has fallen to "passably whites" and anyone without the right waist-line is a joke, the most noticeable let-down is the upgraded awkward. The sweetness of "boy likes girl" is long gone, "boy films girl without her consent" has arrived, and it has got to stop. The actors deserve better and so does the audience.

It seems to have been the plan to inject the Kaz and Oliver characters into the formula where Adam and Leo would be. What they haven't counted on are trait similarities battling for space. With Skylar and Bree occupying essentially the same character, Oliver and Chase reduced to idiots in one another's world, and Kaz having his usually on-point cheek overcast by the constantly snarky dialogue, something's got to give for this merger to work.

I'm happy to see this come together, I'm glad they're giving this a go. It still has potential but I don't see it holding the attention of fans for much longer with this kind of forced character conflict replacing story and lack of plot-driving nemesis that would even call for the existence of an "Elite Force".

The new Lab Rats Elite Force chose 3 main characters from each show, but the comedy relief was kind of missing. From Lab Rats: Adam, Leo, Bob and Douglas provided lots of laughs and from Mighty Meds: Horace, Alan, Gus, and Philip as well provided lots of laughs from that series. Are we going to see these characters in future episodes or are new comedic characters going to be revealed? I really like the new show, however, you made Kaz a little too serious and Chase a little dumber. Also Skylar Storm's hair I thought should not have been high-lighted as she looks cuter with her black hair and how did Skylar become a superhero as she had no super powers, but fire or light came out from her hands? Did Davenport give Skylar a bionic power like he did to Leo? These questions need to be answered in future episodes as well. Maybe a flashback episode before the last "regular" Lab Rats show could be created to show Skylar working with Donald to create her new super powers.

I loved Lab Rats. It was my favorite show of all time, which I know isn't true for many, but I loved it. The characters were amazing and the fandom was awesome. Adam was funny and endearing, Bree was naive and fun, Leo was sassy and awesome and Chase was my favorite. I loved the side characters, especially Douglas. The show was funny but action-packed, and sometimes serious for a Disney show. People I knew said the show was half-decent. I heard Mighty Med had well-written plot and that people liked it. The crossover episode lab rats vs mighty med was good, so lab rats elite force should be good too, right? Wrong.

Adam and Leo, the show's two biggest were gone. The characters personalities were changed to fit the hole left by the characters who were gone. Chase was in love with himself, and constantly made fun of for being a nerd. (note: Between biggest and were on the first line of this paragraph is the word comedians, sorry I'm lazy) making fun of nerds Disney? You've reached a new low. Yes, Adam, Bree and Leo made fun of him but they were family. In this show, Chase and Bree no longer feel like family. Skylar's really annoying in my opinion, I just didn't like her at all. Bree and Skylar are essentially competing for the same spot, and Kaz's humor, there to make up for Adam obviously is missed as everyone is being snarky and bickering at one another. It no longer seems like a fun superhero show but a reality tv show about college students holed up in a dorm that must learn to like each other out else they won't get food. Overall, there was a lot of potential for the show but it sucked.
