Sonic le Rebelle

This is one show I recommend. I have been a fan of this show for almost a year now, and always loved it. This show IS related to a previously released series back in 1993, but because it lacks certain characters from the old series, it was never given a chance. I personally am a fan of Sonic Underground, so I recommend it!

I loved Sonic Underground when i was a kid and Still do to this day. I unfortunately will probably never see this show in a box set of DVD's here in Canada. Oh well I still run around trying to be Sonic or Manic, or Sonia whichever suites my fancy at the time. ^_^ Oh and sometimes I play Knux too! I watch a lot of old cartoons but Sonic Underground has to be one of my fav top tens. Did anyone know the singing voice for Sonic in Sonic Underground now plays Martin Mystery?! I didn't till my brother pointed it out to me. :) But I know Sonic will be around for years to come and I will be there for every new show, comic, game, or toy. And when Sonic Underground does come out on DVD here in Canada, I'm gonna be one of the first there to get it!

Sonic Underground was a little bit like the SatAM series but not a whole lot because all the other freedom fighters from the SatAM are left out and so is Snively and the power rings. But at least this series still has the whole robotisizing thing. Another thing is that Sonic's Uncle Chuck was only in the first episode and they never see each other again. Another thing that was different was the way the SwatBots looked in this series. Sonic Underground is the 3rd Sonic cartoon that came out 2 years later after Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) was canceled again off of USA Network showing reruns.

In this cartoon, Sonic and his siblings Manic (Sonic's brother) and Sonia (Sonic's sister) are the hit rock 'n' roll band on Mobius called the Sonic Underground but in reality they are the children of the lost Queen Aleena, the queen of Mobius. Now Sonic, Manic and Sonia must fight Dr. Robotnik and save the planet Mobius and find their mother with the aid of their medallions. I missed Tails and the other freedom fighters from the 1993 ABC Series but at least I was glad that Knuckles the Echidna was in this series because I think Knuckles is one of my favorite characters in the whole Sonic the Hedgehog franchise along with Sonic! Plus I thought Manic and Cyrus were cool characters also! Especially Manic because Manic has that lay back and be cool sort of attitude plus I think he looks cool!

The only one thing I didn't like about this show was Gary Chalk doing the voice of Dr. Robotnik because he didn't make Dr. Robotnik sound scary and evil! I think Jim Cummings should have done this Sonic cartoon just like he did the voice of Dr. Robotnik from the ABC SatAM version. Or I think Mark Hamill would have done a good job at doing the voice of Dr. Robotnik since he is pretty good at doing creepy villain voices. But the only thing I liked about Dr. Robotnik in this series was that he looked exactly the same as he did in the SatAM Sonic cartoon! Also I liked Robotnik's bounty hunters, Sleet and Dingo. I liked Sleet better than Dingo because I thought Sleet was cool looking and I thought Maurice LaMarche was excellent to provide the voice of Sleet! Dingo I thought was stupid and funny. I didn't think Dingo was stupid as in I didn't like him he is just stupid as in not very smart as Sleet.

Why did this show have to last only one season? I think this show deserved more than one season! Just like the Sonic SatAM cartoon got to have more than one season! I first discovered this series when I was checking what was on TV the next day and I saw Sonic Underground on there and I asked myself, "Since when did Sonic come up with another cartoon?". At first I thought it would be a series that picked up where Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) left off but instead it sort of looked like a spin-off or a prequel. This series was pretty good along with Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) and Sonic X! This series also has great animation!

User Rating: 10/10

BOTTOM LINE: WAY PAST COOL ALONG WITH SONIC THE HEDGEHOG (SATAM) AND SONIC X!

In 1999, the Dreamcast was planning to be released in North America, so after a half a decade of now Sonic 'toons, Sega put DiC to the task. And yeah, a lot of flaws are evident, Sonic's design is outdated, probably because it's set in the same town as SatAm, which came out in '93, but still...

I've seen a lot of episodes from this series and I love them!OK it may not have all the main characters that we love from SATam but it has new people.OK Sonia's voice is annoying but you get use to it and Manic's pretty cool as well and it has a darkish storyline with the whole mum having to give up her babies in order for them to defeat Robotnik and Robotnik doesn't seem all happy clappy annoying unable to do anything right OK he can't do much right but he seems pretty evil and not drawn to look stupid,like SATam,kinda scary and menacing. The Songs are pretty addictive after a while some may be annoying like Where's there's a will etc but the rest aren't that bad. All in All I love this series way way better then Sonic X but not as much as SATam
