So, who here Watched this Glorious Piece of Animation?
Worlds first Fully 3D show, and it was right up my Nerd-Loving heart, with the little inside joke's and Parody's of Pop culture at the time. Where i live on Fridays their would be a 4 Hour block of it, just after i got home from School, and i LOVED it, i had for all intents and purposes the entire show on VHS, Recorded from Wonderful SD Cable TV XD

I watched it many years ago mostly because it was made by the same studio of Beast Machines, and I heard at that time very good things about the series. And it was very good I enjoyed it a lot, loved the computer ambient, but man that ending killed me in the inside 😅
 
''Worlds first Fully 3D show'' ? Not so fast...
LES PREMIÈRES SÉRIES 3D (1987 - 1999) - YouTube

QUARXS (Full version) 12 episodes English - (1991 - 1993)

Insektors series 1 (UK dub) - YouTube
 
It was definitely unique looking, but the later season "Gritty Reboot" Reboot with the time skip was crazy. I tried to catch it whenever I could that season.
 
A reboot thread?! A perfect opportunity to post my favorite scene of self-deprecation!


Youtube comment said:
Reboot was created by Gavin Blair, Ian Pearson, Phil Mitchell, and John Grace. Gavin Blair and Ian Pearson were the people who made the music video for "Money For Nothing" by Dire Straits. This scene was made because they got sick and tired of being recognized for making the Dire Straits music video.
 
Mainframe, the company that made Reboot, was a BIG DEAL when I was growing up, because they were a Canadian studio that pioneered 3D animation for television. The station that they were affiliated with, YTV, ran interviews with the creators constantly and even showed off a ton of footage of people on the street in Vancouver discussing the show. At the time, there was a lot of excitement about how Canadian animation might just take centre-stage in global culture going into the 21st century. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I don’t care for Reboot myself — I always thought it was kind of ugly — but Mainframe’s next show, Transformers: Beast Wars, was a major childhood-defining series for me, and I still consider it a high point for the Transformers brand even today. (Whenever people on the internet call it an American series, my eye twitches.) Beast Machines, the follow up to Beast Wars, was unfortunately not very good, but I do remember the promotional art of it fondly because we had posters of it in my grade school’s library.

Also, there’s this:

Yes, it’s a real Reboot successor, and characters from the original show appear in it constantly. The whole thing was apparently concocted as an ego trip for the director’s son. That’s one for you Reboot fans to watch!
