Thank God this show doesn't air on TV anymore, because this show does not deserve any positive recognition whatsoever. My Life As A Teenage Robot is everything bad about modern cartoons. First off, the animation sucks. Yeah, some of the crew who worked on this show also worked on relatively good shows such as The Powerpuff Girls, but the animation here is still very awful. The character designs look very stupid, and in some shots they appear to look like random doodles. And secondly, and most importantly, I hate the main character of this show, XJ9. If I'm watching a movie or a TV show, there's supposed to be a main character that I can root for and is an overall good person who learns whenever he/she does something wrong. Unfortunately, XJ9 (who is also called Jenny) is the most selfish, rude, and disgusting piece of rotting flesh I have ever seen. The one episode that really infuriates me is the Preschool Dropout one, where she knocks out a class of kindergartners for teasing her, but even worse, they all think it's awesome because she was "showing off her powers". I would have beaten the unholy Hell out of her if I were one of those kids. This character needs to be dragged into the street and beaten endlessly with a crowbar. For a good Nicktoon, watch early SpongeBob, Rocko's Modern Life, Jimmy Neutron, The Wild Thornberries, and The Angry Beavers. If you're a Nick Jr fan, watch Little Bear or Franklin (the traditionally animated one). Avoid this horrendous pile of garbage at all costs.
... View MoreWhy would you make a teenage robot? Teenagers aren't gonna feel like saving the world at all. I know I wouldn't. And metal and electricity doesn't make you have "The strength of a million and seventy men".I think this show takes place in the future, though not too distant, because most of the people in the direct serving line of work are robots, and the robots have personalities. But I still don't understand how there are good robots. If I was a robot and treated as a slave and had a personality, then I'd plan a robot uprising, which does happen by a robot race, but Jenny, the main robot, stops them.Something else that is weird is a human likes her. His name is Sheldon, and he is attracted to her. There must be a word for that, like heterobosexuality, but it would make sense if there wasn't a word for it, because it would NEVER HAPPEN.The biggest thing that doesn't make any possible sense is all the robots have genders! How does Jenny have a gender?! Was she made with an Animatronic woman part or something?! She would also be a slut if she was human, because she gets some slutty paint job in one episode.All right, that's my review. And it's true because these are the reasons it lasted for about 2 seasons. 3/10.
... View MoreWell, I'm impressed. At first I thought it was just another crappy Nickelodeon show again, but I gave it a show, and I don't regret it even the slightest. I was expecting nothing, since Rocket power was a HUGE disappointment. Man, was I surprised or what? The voice acting is great! The only voice I don't really like is Brad's. He actually sound better in the Swedish dub! Janice Kawaye was a great pick for XJ-9 "Jenny" Wakeman. She is a first class dubber, indeed.The story isn't that original (not to mention any spoilers). It is well drawn and I really love the animations for all Jenny's transformations. They are vary original. Very smooth animated. Overall, this is absolutely the best show on Nickelodeon at the current. I can't believe they actually canceled it! If you haven't seen it yet; do it! Thank you, Rob Renzsetti for a great classic cartoon! 10/10
... View MoreOne thing: It's another cheesy superhero-fighting-crime crap-o-palooza show. Another thing: There is way too much giving up too soon with the job stuff. To some, I may not be making sense here with my grammar. But to others, I'm proving my point very well. My 4-year-old sister watches repeats of this show every Saturday morning and the plots never change. A bad guy is trying to destroy XJ9, the teenage robot who likes to be called Jenny, and the bad guys want to take over the world but Jenny stops them just in time...blah, blah, blah. No offends to the guys who keep thinking of superhero shows, but honestly why doesn't anyone come up with better ideas for a show? This show is all reruns, and if you want to kill 30 minutes of your time, go right ahead and watch this junky cartoon.
