A digital masterpiece.

Back in the late nineties, there were alot of kids shows around. Some were good, Like War Planets, and Angry Beavers. Others were okay, like Reboot. Some I'd rather not remember, like most of the Anime being dubbed onto Cartoon Network. One show though stood out above the rest, and imprinted on me like no book, tv show, or videogame has ever before, or since. From the intro of the first episode when the Axalon and Darkside exited from transwarp space I was fixed. This show was simply called Beast Wars.
The CGI graphics may not have been the best, but because of the complex characters that made up the cast you would have to look for flaws to find them. There was humor as in episodes like, "A Better Mousetrap," or "The Low Road." There was action unequaled in any kids show at the time, or since, as in the episodes, "Gorilla Warfare," or, "Call of the Wild." There was well thought out plots like when Cheetor, Rattrap, Dinobot, and Rhinox were rendered blind in the episode, "Dark Voyage." Also like in no other kidshow at the time, there was tradgedy. The episode, "Law of the Jungle," is really one of the, if not the first that dealt with death. Sure other shows like DBZ may have shown it, but the characters always come back. In Beast Wars, death is eternal, besides the a few incidents in the following seasons.
Each character has it's own thing to be admired about, Megatron for not only being a powerful villian, but an intellegent leader. Optimus for never giving an order he would not follow himself. Waspinator for his loyalty even after each time he was blown to bits. Dinobot for not letting his Predacon heritage guide his way of life, and so on.
Also the characters are the first in a series to really question sensless violence. The character Tigertron brings a reality to the horrors of war that never before were used in a kids show.
All in all, as I bring this review to an end I have to say that despite being labeled as a kids show, I find Beast Wars to be as much entertaining as it was then, as it is now. Even more so now that I am old enough to really find much in common with the characters, and to understand why they did the things they did. There has never been a show since, kids or adults, that brings all this together as it did before. Thats why I strongly recomend Beast Wars, Season One as a must have dvd boxed set. For anyone that loves transformers, and anyone that grew up with beliveing that someway somehow, good always trimuphs over evil. |
