    Megas XLR is my Favorite show, a show with great animations all hand drawn and great satire and Action mech battles to the finest degree. So it's a real shame cartoon network cut it after only 2 seasons, It also has a fantastic soundtrack with some amazing original rock and metal soundtracks. It deserved a more season for sure but the creators have had trouble getting the rights back to it even though whoever has them I don't believe they will it's been so long and the fans myself one of them wish the originals would be able to be broadcasted on a new TV station again and new seasons and content to com back, maybe on Netflix or on youtube funded by someone that could and gives the original creators full control. So if you love this show tell cartoon network and others that could bring this how back that we want this show to return. Give it a buy on xbox live or Itunes that is where you can buy it and I promise you will love the show as much as me if you think it sounds good. The shows plot is about a robot sent back to the early 21 century and a guy that loves to eat named Coop finds it in the junkyard and fixes it up and then after that his friend Jamie and a girl worries that sent Megas back in time and they fight foes from around the galaxy with great comedy and action with one of the best soundtracks for a cartoon ever. It is an example of a show that is you will enjoy over and over again please give it a buy and then watch it and have a great time.

    Megas XLR is one of those cartoons that make you wanna laugh with squirm.. It's worth watching.. The characters such as COOP, a fat lousy slob who drives this great robot while his mind is on food and well, almost other things.. which in most times.. He seems to forgets and then remembers..Kiva, a futuristic galactic babe who ends up stuck in the present day with 2 twits whilst figuring out if she'll ever get back to the future.. Mind you, Kiva has got good intelligence.. but as the series goes.. she's trying to blend in the present day folks..Last but not least you got Jamie.. This guy likes to be in the fun of all the action, as well as excitement. But most times, he thinks about ending up with the so-called 'Space Chicks' money and what have you..There are other characters like Goat.. The guy who works at this junkyard. That's where Coop found the robot which came from the future..Then you got the Glorft.. It's main leader Gorrath which is superbly voiced by Clancy Brown who is after Megas.To sum it all up.. It was very entertaining! This is my cup of tea..!

    I initially thought of Megas what many others here did: "Oh, great. Just what we need, another giant robot show...." But I must say this is one of my favorite shows on television. To put it simply, Megas XLR does for giant robots, what Futurama does for science fiction: poking fun at but, at the same time, paying homage to a popular genre. So it's not the most intellectual program one could find. I still think you can get off your high horse one night a week for thirty minutes and enjoy a little satire towards the group of people known as 'gamers' who are into this stuff. And let's face it, if we're watching this show, there's a little gamer in all of us. And there's no harm in that. Everyone needs a hobby. I know I'm looking forward to new episodes.

    Megas got its start as a sort of You Pick short, and while it didn't make the final cut as I remember, it must have made a good impression. The suits in Atlanta wisely decided to run with Megas, one of their most brilliant decisions since the creation of Toonami and Adult Swim.Absurdity is the key to humor these days, at least for me. And what could be more absurd then a couple of burned-out 20somethings in control of their own Mecha? And in Jersey, no less! Throw in a token Anime-style chick, insane villains, monsters, interplanetary hijinx, and (most importantly) a killer mock-metal soundtrack - These are a few of my favorite things... Whoops. Sorry.And how about the details on the Megas! What geek WOULDN'T pimp out their own Mecha with flames, nekked chick reflectors, an 8-Ball gear shift knob, and Playstation Controllers? It's every nerd's dream come true.You have GOT to love this toon. If you don't... Well, then, heck with ya. Mindless fun for everyone, Mecha destruction for the Anime geek in a lot of us, and oh, the METAL!Wow. I used to LIVE for Saturday Mornings. Now I LIVE for Saturday Evenings. How corny is that...?
