I'm a 30-something year old mother who, although quite fond of Sci-fi, doesn't really care for animation all that much. I was a little disappointed in the Tron Legacy movie - though I found it very pretty and I really enjoyed the soundtrack and impressive special effects - I was not compelled by the story or characters. So when Tron: Uprising appeared on Netflix, I skipped over it repeatedly.One day we bought a new LED TV and were looking for things to watch that we though might be visually appealing. One of those things was Tron: Uprising. I've been close to obsessed every since.This show is the complete package - stunning visuals, compelling story line and characters, gorgeous soundtrack. The pacing of each episode is perfect, the voice acting impeccable and the story-telling, through the combination of the visuals and script is thrilling and the attention to detail is just amazing. There are moments in the show that just couldn't be more perfectly crafted.I haven't been so excited about something on TV since....well, I can't remember enjoying a show this much before. It seems that the show has likely run its course and isn't being developed anymore and thats a huge shame. I'm sure the incredible talent behind this show could have taken this story all the way to, and beyond, the Tron: Legacy story arc. I seriously hope Disney re-considers and considers more seasons.

In the same vein as perhaps the Animatrix was to the Matrix, this preceding story to the Legacy movie fills the viewer with stunning visuals, terrific soundtrack and helps lay in some interesting pieces to the puzzle. If you are not so keen on watching because you're older and not into an animated series, don't be! Just think of it as a continuation of the storyline in an Aeon Flux stylized CG form, and it does so with some REAL STAR POWER! I must say if you liked Legacy the storyline in this is, in my opinion, better! I really do hope to see more of this awesome Disney creation because the writing and production are great. Give it a shot, and btw I'm 36 and don't live at moms house if you catch my drift.;)

And this comes from someone who considers the original Tron (1982) film to be the best film of all time and my favorite.This animated series is unwatchable. It takes the worst of Tron : Legacy and places it in a blender. What comes out the other end is brown, sticky and smells. It makes Power Rangers look like a literary work.No discernible story, completely unexplainable plot, non existent characters. It clearly exists only because someone, somewhere said it has to.Entire work set inside the "Tron" universe with no explanation whatsoever as to it's existence or what is going on. 70% of each episode consists of fight scenes. The whole thing looks like it was set in the real world, not the Tron universe. Even the compressed soundtrack is abysmal.Being Tron, I really, really did try my hardest to give this one a real chance. I watched up until episode six before I finally decided mid stream finally to just switch the gaddamn thing off and never go back.If this is the direction Tron is heading in then gawd help it.

This is an amazing show, in fact it seems like each episode outdoes the last in terms of dramatic tension, character development, action and just the sheer beauty of the show (and once you get used to the unusual character designs man is it good looking. Also unsurprisingly considering the outstanding cast the voice acting is beyond good too, all in all my only complaint about this show is that there is so much going on and so many plots that have be intrigued I don't see how they'll be resolved in just the couple of episodes left in season 1 (at this point season 2 hasn't been confirmed).Also you have to love this show just for the fact that Disney has done their best to push this into the deepest, darkest corner possible to kill it off (its on at 12am on a Monday... is there a worse possible timeslot they had open?)and it just gets better and better. So yea, I'm telling you this show is the Rudy of animation right now.
