Huffington Post [http://www.rainmaker.com/?/site/news/82] and have come straight here, as there are so many other people like me who will be very happy. Now... is it wrong if I still have a crush on Bob at 30 years old?

OK, I like ReBoot but...why rebooted? I suppose I just don't like reboots (aside from ReBoot) but I don't see a reason for it. I mean, if a show is good, it's good - no reboot needed. If it's bad...then again, why would I want it rebooted. And ReBoot was really good, again, no need for a reboot there.

I think after writing all this

Reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot reboot

No, it's quite normal. Well, unless you are a girl - then it's expected :p

I'm not so much interested in a 'reboot' as I would be to see this series done with modern CG.

Same goes for TF: Beast Wars.

I guess I'll have to scribble that off of my "TV franchises that will never return" list. About all that's left now is Captain N. But I suppose that if even Captain Planet can return, anything's possible.

I really hope they don't screw this up. There's a big gap between the mid-90's when gaming and the internet were beginning to seep into mass culture and now, when they are an integral part of it, so not screwing up might be pretty tough. I just hope they keep the semi-satirical "games" now that there are so many more characters and settings to mock.

My main question is... Are they going to bring back the original people that worked on ReBoot? Otherwise I'll hold the rebooting of ReBoot as a tentative curiosity.

And my face right now looks like this:


And now my only question is... will it be any good? No one knows for sure, but I intend to find out!

I love this series. It is very funny and cool. Though, if they call it Rebooted, then I'll just leave it completely.

I often feel like I'm the only person on the internet who /hated/ that show. I loved (and still love, it holds up surprisingly well even today) Beast Wars, but Reboot was just bad. Or at least the early seasons before the timeskip or whatever it was that caused the kids to grow up happened, and I didn't watch enough of the ones after those episodes to really remember much of it. It just sort of took up a slot on Toonami, I watched it because there were better shows before and after it. Whereas with Beast Wars, I actually got my butt up on Saturday mornings to catch the new episodes on their first release, no Cartoon Network needed.

OK, there is still hope for you. You're still not getting an invitation for my birthday party, though. And you don't get to come in, either.

OK, to be honest, the first season was just rubbish, then it got a bit better but it was still sort of meh on many occasions, after the timeskip, it really picked up speed and pretty much all of it was awesome. Then there is the finale (of sorts) that was also quite good.

Awesome sauce. There were still loose ends to cover after the two direct to DVD/VHS movies and whether or not the can make a multi-season series out of that, I do not know but none the less I am hopeful. Maybe after that they might try their hand at Shadow Raiders again. It has been 15/14 years since the series ended on a cliffhanger.

The main problem is that ABC censored a shit tonne in the first couple of seasons. Hell, they caused an uproar when they argued that Dot kissing Enzo would promote incest! A rather funny gag is when Bob uses a command on glitch that is the initials of said censor board to pass harmlessly through glass as crashing through it was not allowed on children's television.

Because of this the show is rife with not so subtle insults directed at the standards council of ABC. The later seasons were not held back and thus their quality shone!

Did any of that stuff make it to UK shores? It was my favourite cartoon at the time (if anyone from the UK on here remembers CITV from back then) and I've been hoping to get to the end of the story someday. I was just starting secondary school in 1994...

I am not sure... they are in their entirety on youtube right now but I do not know if I am allowed to embed them. I will give you a link to their wiki pages and then you should have no trouble finding them on youtube.

Did they ever finish the first Reboot? The last episode ended on a cliffhanger and I never heard anything else about it. For all I know, Megabyte is still in control of everything. Or did that change in a comic or something?

Wait wait wait...Rebooted or continued? Because I'm seeing statements about both in the first two sentences.

The beloved '90s cartoon "Reboot" is getting a reboot.

B.C. animation studio Rainmaker Entertainment announced this week that it has renamed its TV division Mainframe Entertainment and launched development of a sequel to the first-ever fully computer-animated series.

As far as it being animated, no, the plot was left on a cliffhanger even after the two TV movies. There /may/ have been a conclusion in comic form, but I don't know. All I know for sure is a few years ago, cartoon and animation forums all over the internet blew up because there were rumors of a movie that would wrap up the plot, and when that fell through (I think it may have had something to do with Megabyte's voice actor dying), they were planning on getting the story out as a web comic. I have no idea if the comic was ever made, though.

The comic was done. It's called Paradigms Lost but it makes no sense. It's supposed to take place after the Season 4 movies but nothing explains the leadup to it and then there's minor issues like Glitch being a generic v1 voice command keytool instead of the upgraded v2 neural interface it became in the second movie. If the comic is to be believed then SOMEHOW Megabyte escapes and it's because Bob let him go, and SOMEHOW a rebuilt Mainframe succumbs to a zombie virus outbreak int he meantime. Neither of which is even remotely referenced in the show (seriously, look at Bob at the end of the second movie. He's going to end Megabyte for at the very least the virus taking the gloves off let alone what happened to him) and the system going from freshly restored to post apocalyptic with no explanation is jarring.

Here's the comic, read it for yourself. (no, it is not a torrent or anything like that)
