Buzz Lightyear of Star Command

I'd have to say that this is the best animated Disney show ever. I was dissapointed when I found out that Tim Allen was not providing his voice for Buzz. I'm getting used to the new voice slowly. I love his team, though! XR is the funnest and I end up quoting him often. Booster is cool, too. He always manages to make you laugh. Mira Nova is awesome! She is, so far, the absolute best of the good guys! She can be serious one minute and silly the next. I've never seen her flirt with Buzz, though. I think they would be cute together! My favorite villian would have to be Warp Darkmatter! He's really cool and I love who does his voice! Diedrich Bader rules!

Ever since my four-year-old son saw Toy Story, he's loved Buzz Lightyear. So, when we got the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command video and saw that there was going to be a television show based off the video, I knew I was going to have to watch it. Even though the Toy Story movies were great, after watching them for the five hundredth time, they got old, so I wasn't really looking forward to the series (even though my son couldn't wait).

When the show premiered, though, I was more than pleasantly surprised. It was good. I actually look forward to my daily dose of Buzz Lightyear. The show is faithful to the Buzz Lightyear franchise, and has plenty of jokes in it that can keep even a grown up entertained and laughing. Plus, there have been plenty of episodes, so I don't see the same ones that often, even though my son watches them every day.

Part of the reason I like this show so much is that Patrick Warburton (David Puddy of Seinfeld fame) plays Buzz Lightyear. He does an excellent job with the character. In fact, I think he does at least as good, if not better, a job as Tim Allen did in the movies. His nemesis, The Evil Emperor Zurg, is played by Wayne Knight (Newman from Seinfeld), and the chemistry is great.

There also have been numerous guest voices, ranging from Eric Idle to Ricardo Montalbán, making the show that much more enjoyable.

The show is great fun, for the whole family.

Buzz Lightyear of Star Command was the logical evolution for the series which started off as a computer-generated motion picture. This series follows the adventures of the real Buzz Lightyear (the tv series cartoon hero from the tv series within the movie that the Buzz toy from the movie was based on in the movie.) It sounds complicated but it's not. "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" follows Buzz and his team of space rangers as they right the evil emperor Zurg and other baddies in their universe. The series is delightful and very funny. I find it rare to laugh-out-loud at an animated show, especially when there's no one to help fuel the laughter, but this show strikes a funny nerve.

To conclude, this is a worthwhile so you should definitely check it out. I highly recommend it.

I have made no secret of loving Disney, not only their movies such as Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty and The Lion King, but also their shows like Darkwing Duck, DuckTales and Talespin. Buzz LightYear of Star Command is a worthy series and this is coming from a fan of the two Pixar films, not the best show from Disney but infinitely better than the rubbish on the Disney channel now. The animation is good quality especially the galactic backgrounds, and the music is pleasant. The story lines and dialogues are intriguing and amusing, and the characters particularly beautiful and feisty Mira and villainous yet fun Zurg are great. The voice acting is well done, Patrick Warburton started off a little shaky, and while Tim Allen captured the character better, Warburton does a decent enough job. Zurg is brilliantly voiced by Wayne Knight though, and Warp has his great moments as well. Overall, worth watching and a worthy series, not the best out there, but an improvement on any of the shows airing now. 8/10 Bethany Cox

With one or two exceptions, animated shows from Disney really suck. Buzz Lightyear of Star Command IS one of those exceptions. The series is entertaining and funny. It has some of the charm of Toy Story. Best of all, this show doesn't try to install some sappy moral like Disney's Doug or Pepper Ann. I highly recommend Buzz Lightyear of Star Command.
