What's with this "1.1" crap that seems to be trendy with TV shows on DVD? That would mean it's Season 1 plus 10% of who-knows-what. It's not software, dammit, it's a TV show, just sell it by season! Argh! Makes me want to join Cobra and take over the world.

Yeah...I don't like how they throw both DVD sets(Season 1.1(wtf?) and Complete Series) in the news article. It's hard to determine which one they're talking about.

D.I.C. Animation. The way they wrote it, they make the Sunbow series look all edgy like Resolute in comparison.
Think M.A.S.K crossed with Captain Planet. |

I wish Roadblock had joined NWA. His kid-friendly lyrics would have offered a much needed relief. Maybe he should rap-battle Eminem, in an 8mile remake. Than face slap him with his 50lb machine gun.

Oh yeah. And every episode seemed to beat the viewer over the head multiple times with some stupid message- tolerance, drug abuse, friendship.. Time, Love and Tenderness. I remember an episode where Lt. Falcon got addicted to Headman’s new brand of crack and jumped a luggage trolley thing off of a loading ramp in a drug induced stupor, while (I think) Hawk or someone yelled at him about driving while under the influence, or something. If you ever saw Operation: Dragonfire, that was the miniseries that kicked off the whole thing. Some Crimson Guardsman spied on a bunch of monks, got promoted to ALLEY VIPER, except he was the ONLY one. He was also Scoop’s brother. Who was also a Crimson Guard undercover… Yyyyeah… Destro was with Zarana, Baroness was with Gnawgahyde. Characters like Dusty, Metal Head, Heavy Duty and Red Star (Capt. Kriemov) all had ridiculous voices and/or accents. Waaaaay worse than Baroness or Dr. Minbender. For the most part it stunk, but there were a few things about it that stood out: Nightcreeper Leader looked awesome. Lowlight sounded like Clint Eastwood (but he may have on the sunbow one too, and I just forgot). Cobra Commander was back but half snake/half man. Serpentor got turned COMPLETELY into a snake as payback for the movie. There was a female Range Viper who had been best friends with Ambush in grade school, that was kind of cool. But it had a really cheesy, campy feel to it like M.A.S.K. I think you can find some episodes on youtube still, that's where I reaquainted myself with it. See if you can find the one about the guy still trying to escape from Alcatraz. |

That is unfortunate. What I like about ARAH, or what I've managed to see on youtube, is the fact that even though no one dies, it does present the "How the hell are they going to get out of this one?!" feeling. I see why the third season is so hated now lol.

Also, doesn't Cobra Commander wear the armored uniform? |
