Its on right after Ben 10 al most of us watch to BINGO new thread.
Ok episode 2 had ( granted very briefly ) the possibility of killing a priest ( the word kill was used) and blowing up new york and killing everyone in it.
Is it just me or is this show a tad darker then UA? The rating was tv PG-v and I know most of justice league and teen titans were y7-fv.
I think im going to pay attention to those ratings blocks a bit more next week.

I actually love it. We always get that "I am a superhero, I do not kill, ROAR!" thing for kids' shows...yes, this is for more mature kids, but it is nice to have a character that accepts that sometimes killing could be the necessary act, however still wanting to question it and try to find the better option.
I'm loving this series so far. Six, Rex, Noah, Bobo, Doc Holiday...the only character I don't like is Knight, and I don't think you're supposed to like him, so hey, they're doing their job just dandy.

I'm really enjoying this show. I've always enjoyed darker shows and it's nice to see an American cartoon with a more mature feel.
I like all the characters minus Knight for obvious reasons. Van Kleiss is creepy, which is always fun in a villain. I'm looking forwards to his next major appearance.

Van Kleiss is creepy, but he's such a fascinating villain, I love how they're doing it. Like I said...really into this show.

I'm seriously enjoying this series so far. The characters all have distinct personalities that are being developed rather well so far. I wanted to hold off on forming an opinion at least until I had seen more than one or two episodes, but I have to admit that they're doing a really good job with it.

I only have one complaint...their sound effects department is...whacky. Yes, I get that it's a cartoon, but noises like the slide whistle while Noah and Rex were playing basketball during a cartoon that's this serious felt....really out of place. Even the 'ka-ching' noise when Bobo mentioned Vegas felt a little weird.

I have to agree with you there. I have to chalk it up to the mere fact that it is a cartoon and despite all of the action and the darker tone, MoA wants to remind us of that fact.

The more I see of Six, the more I love that guy...same for all of the characters except White Knight, really. Bobo makes me laugh, and the Pack is interesting, even if they are a bit creepy. Circe is pretty cool, plus bonus points for the mythological reference in her name.

OK Rex is pissed over Noah being a plant and gets over it a bit fast but they still went there . .
Doctor Holiday gives us a tiny lesson in making hard choices.
We have Rex running from providence and that carrying over into the next ep at least me likie.
All in all Im wishing this show was an hour long so this stuff could be drawn out a little more or done more avatar style with every ep really leading into every other.
I was thinking of tossing in some kind of joke about Holiday being hot and her sister being a beast but well I might get tazed by the boards female population . . . again . . . for the 3rd time today . . . it hurts

Not a bad episode. I'm glad to see some decent continuity here and that it;s going to carry over to next week.
And D, I would have snickered at that joke. I'd have made it myself if I had thought of it first.

I do like the continuity and bonus points because I didn't think they'd touch the Noah thing until later and when they did that Rex would get just as bad as Ben can be when he's being ultra whiny. Yeah, he worked through the emotions just a bit too fast, but when you're really desperate for companionship it makes sense you'd forgive something like that.

Continuity is always nice to see on shows like this. I'm glad that it'll carry into next week with Rex running away. Until I see the preview, I figured Rex was just leaving for a few hours before returning so it's good to see that's not the case.
