Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog

This show kicked ass! It first came on when I was in the third grade. I would watch it before I went to school in the mornings. I really liked the characters, also the episodes were always good and never got old. I wish they could air again on tv or come out on DVD!

Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, was a cool cartoon. The darker Sonic the Hedgehog series that ran on ABC from 1993-1995 was excellent. AoSTH is nothing compared to it, but nevertheless, it's still a good show. The cartoony styles in it make it look sort've like a mixture of Warner Bros cartoons, and a lesson learning session from Captin... I forgot the name. Who cares about the bad animation. It made it easier for the people to draw and stuff. If you wanna advance your knowledge on SegaSonic, you'd probably want to see this. Of course, you could check out the SatAM, but not that horrible show Sonic Underground. Listen that show reeks, and nothing's going to change that. There were a couple of good episodes, but clearly, that wasn't enough.

So, if you want to see a better cartoon, see this or SatAM.

PS: BRING BACK SATAM! BRING BACK SATAM! BRING BACK SATAM! BRING BACK SATAM!

This is definitely a great cartoon, or at least from what I remember. This series, which I remember watching once on video tape and getting it, is the only one I really saw (aside from Sonic X, which is unfortunately anime) and why I'm talking here (this might also be how I first learned of Sonic the Hedgehog). It's pretty odd that people said that this cartoon was horrible, since only 4 or 5 of the total comments talked of dislikes to this. The animation, which I saw a little, really isn't that bad. Okay so it's not really up to par like most other American cartoons, but it's still really not "cheesy," as most people like to say (I wonder what that means as an adjective). Another thing is that some say that it seems to be a Looney Toons spoof, but to me, it looks more like a mixture of Garfield/Pink Panther/Care Bears/Spy vs. Spy (by Antonio Prohias) theme.

While not as serious as the Saturday version (Sonic the Hedgehog "SATAM") or even the one from France/America (Sonic Underground), it still seems to be even better than something violent, vulgar, and tasteless nowadays (and they say anime has better animation). This appears to be a comic series with a whole bunch of laughs like in Garfield and Pink Panther episodes. There's even safety segments called "Sonic Says," similar to the "Garfield Quickies" with some excellent advice on how to be safe and good.

While I've really only seen this series, I'd recommend any Sonic animation title you can find (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, or AoStH; SATAM Sonic, and Sonic Underground.) But I'm doubtful with Sonic "OVA/movie" as well as Sonic X, since their animes, which are cartoons to watch out for, mind you. But if you can find this series especially go ahead and get it. Even if the story lines and animation aren't up to par, it still has side-splitting humor that's just as good as the said cartoons above!

"The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" has to be the funniest show around!!!! I mean, it's like, comedy all the way, baby!!!!! It's funnier than the ABC version, AND there are VERY funny catch phrases in them, like "I'm waaaaaiting!!!!", for example. Of course the animation was cheesy to some people.... but it's funny to watch!!!!! I like this show, because it's got SO many catch phrases, and every single episode makes me wanna laugh REALLY hard!!!!!! Besides, how many comedy lovers out there couldn't love this show???? It's like, REALLY FUNNY!!!!!! Here is a note to ALL you parents out there!!!! If you are looking for a comedy show for your kids to watch, I wouldn't recommend the ABC version, I would recommend THIS version. Your kids would love it. If they like the ABC version than this version or "Sonic Underground", that's fine with me!!!!! I'm just saying that your kids would love it, because of the episodes being funny AND those hilarious catch phrases!!!!!!! I would give this show an 98% (which is still a grade A), because half of it's got cheesy animation, but it's the funniest show around!!!!!

I remember watching this when I was a kid. It was on Channel 4, Sunday at 9am and I used to watch the programs for about two hours beforehand so I would be sure not to miss it. Is it really that good? It was to me, and still is.

People comment that the humour is very slapstick in this. They're right. But so what? Pantomime is slapstick and nobody complains. Why? Because it's an accepted part of the show. I think the same goes for this one.

Is it better than Sonic X? Tough one. I'm a huge fan of Sonic X (mostly because I happen to be a huge fan of Knuckles, although I do love the series for its own sake). I don't see how you can reasonably compare the two of them; Sonic X is good for older viewers, while the slightly younger ones will probably enjoy this one more. The one thing that bugs me a little that I don't remember bugging me when I was younger (the age thing again) was the way that occasional episodes would ram the moral down your throat. Example: in Subterranean Sonic, after Sonic and Tails rescue the miser mole, he turns to them and says something like, "Oh, I can't thank you enough for showing me the error of my ways!" and then the three of them walk into the sunset together. Corny? You betcha. But so what? These incidents are few and far between, and if you're too old to be affected by them, you're not too old to laugh.

People who slam this are most likely used to the straighter story lines of Sonic X or can't remember what it was like to be eight or nine years old and watching this. No, it doesn't have particularly deep or engaging story lines. But since when does a twenty minute cartoon for kids really need them? On a closing note, it features the ultimate Robotnik. Long John Baldry's voice was absolutely perfect for this character; it's such a shame he wasn't able to participate in any other Sonic productions.

Bottom line; it's great. I doubt it'll get you on the edge of your seat unless you're aged about ten or under, but Sonic fans can still enjoy it.
