¡Mucha Lucha! is an over-the-top comedy-adventure about honor, family, tradition... and donuts. The series explores the Latino cultural phenomenon known as "Lucha Libre."

In a world where no one removes their colorful mask ever and success depends on having a "signature move," three mascaritas - Rikochet, Buena Girl and The Flea - study and live the "Code of Masked Wrestling" and go to school at the Formost World-Renowned International School of Lucha. This bold comedy combines irreverent humor and visually dynamic fantasy-action in two fast-paced 11-minute episodes and is the first-ever all-flash animated series on broadcast television. Character Bios:

Rikochet - The main Luchador of the show, Rikochet wants to be the school's greatest Luchador ever! He's master of the "Pulverzing Pinball" attack, as well as the "Spinning Top" and other attacks. Buena Girl - Buena Girl's knowledge of the Code of Masked Wrestling is surpassed by none, giving her an edge in matches. Her special attack is "The Buena Bulldozer of Truth", and she stands for all things Buena.

The Flea - The Flea, Buena Girl, and Rikochet are like the three amigos, literally! But they call themselves the Three Mascaritas! The Flea is kind of the nasty one, the only things that can beat him are showers, killer masked toilets, and good hygiene! The Flea also refers to himself in the third-person perspective.

Snow Pea - Snow Pea is the gentle, baby like, mascarita of the school. He doesn't appear to like violence, and he pretty much loses every fight he gets himself into. His signature move is called: "The Cuddly Hug of Friendship"! His signature move is quite strangely, only a hug. He is very small and he wears a green pea pod costume, and the only thing that Snow Pea knows how to say is his own name! Cindy Slam - She is a violent little mascarita who hates just about everything and can get very angry, very easily. Her attitude is just about as scary as her signature move: "The Cindy Slammer"! When she uses her signature move her hands turn into giant brick walls that can crush just about anything. It is highly recommended that you do not anger her. If you leave her alone, then you might just be spared the pain of her fury. Masked Dog - Masked Dog is just about the coolest dog you'll ever meet. Everyone knows him, and everyone loves him. His signature move is called: "Knocking Paws". It is basicly just a super cool handshake. Masked Dog is always there at his master's side when Rickochet needs him the most. Kids' WB!

  4.5 Poor

  This show is average.Once you go over the mexican style this show has been coated,you will see that this all has been done before hide « show »

  This show is pretty decent.I dont hate it,but im not crazy about it either.OK,the mexican theme is pretty cool.The show is flash animated,but they did a very good job,i like the animation.The background music and theme are cool,i like latin music.The show has a good start.But then the problems appear.With the characters.Ok,the story is set around young boy named Rikochet and his 2 friends Buena Girl and Flea.They want to be mask wrestlers,and they go to school for masked wrestling.They live in a town,probably mexican,where most of the people,even babies waear masks.And they must obey the code of mask wresling.Ok,the plot is a bit strange,but original,and kinda cutting edge.The idea of a school where is allowed to fight really makes me chuckle.But,as i was saying,the problemis with the characters.When you go over the mexican theme nad style,you will see that this has all been done before.We have an average,boring kid,and story is set around him.He has 2 friends,a smart girl and a dim witted boy who serves for a comic releif.And they go to school and in every episode they have adventures.Really,this has all been done before.And the characters arent very intersting themselves.Rikochet is a typicall average boring kid who wants to be a masked wrestler(in his country,thats as awsome as becoming a football player,doctor,or a lawer)And he lives with his mom,dad(who is a famous mask wrestler and his role model) and senile grandpa who gives him adveces,but also serves as a comic releif due to his senility.It has been done before.Now,about his friends.Buena girl is a typicall know-at-all girl with opsessive compulsive disorder and always gives boring lectures about living the life like the code of masked wresling demands.And the running gag is in every episode:the boys are misbehaving and she takes teh book from nowhere *angel chorus* and starts reading it.I wish someone would hit her with that book.And then we come to Flea.He is dim witted,stinky,socially akward,often very mean and crazy.And serves as a comic releif from his boring,unintersting friends.Well,he is acctually one of the best characters on the show.He is smoethimes more gross than funny,but i prefer his randomness a lot more than Cheese from Fosters,who is very overrated.Flea uses toilet and violent humor,typicall for random characters,but he does a pretty good job.I also like headmistress and that crazy disco opsessed teacher.They are pretty funny.But the episodes tend to be pretty boring,the other characters are very annoying,or never speak at all.And i hate those 3 bullies who dont wear masks and bully Rikochet and his friends.They are the one socially akward,cause all the citizens besides them wear masks,duuuh.And the humor could be allot better.I would give this how higher ratings,but CN showed the same episodes like a million times,and it really made me vomit.But on some german channel i saw new episodes.But i dont understand german dub so i cant watch it.It was cancelled pretty soon so it didnt have a chance to develope more.I have alot of symphaty for this show and it was really canceled before it should have.I would rather wach this show instead of sam old Ben 10(original) episodes whos been running for maybe 4 years and makes me vomit when ever i see it.They should amke new Mucha Lucha episodes instead.

  Mucha Lucha! is all about young kids want to grow up to be masked wrestlers and go to a school called, "The Formost World-Renouned International SChool of Lucha". The trio's names are Ricochet, Buena Girl, and The Flea. Adventure, comedy, and fun are here hide « show »

  I love this show. There are 2 things I can't beleive, though:
  1) People hate this show.
  2) Cartoon Network put it off X[
  
  Can anyone tell me where i can see eps online???
  plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?? I really miss this show. For those who don't like the show, I recommend giving Mucha Lucha! another chance. This show has adventure, comedy, and fun. The Flea has to be my fav character, tying with Ricochet. I hope that someone could tell me where to watch Mucha Lucha! online. The episodes are funny and entertaining. Too bad it's off Cartoon Network AND Kids WB. I miss Mucha Lucha!!!

  Better than Shuriken School hide « show »

  ¡Mucha Lucha! is a good cartoon .At least , it was more interesting that the PBS show of "Sagwa" and have some funny parts and likable characters . Also , it have many similarities with flash in the powers of rickisha and his enemies . The animation is good and combines computer flash graphics and traditional animation , and it looks well . The bad side of the show is that is a bit predictable . Some episodes follow the same line (Rickasha did something & want help from his friends to correct it a super -power and then beats the enemy ),but is a funny show . Also I think that was good the fact that ¡Mucha Lucha! should desire more credit on Boomerang, and it works perfectly . A good anime for the whole family and a good adaptation of a Flash cartoon

  8.2 Great

  It wasn't that bad of a show! hide « show »

  I don't see why people hate the show so bad the way they do. I didn't think it was bad show it wasn't the greatest but not the worst. I wouldn't say it was the greatest cartoon on the face of the planet earth but it is still an ok show. It was a fun show to watch for an half hour. When nothing else is on I would rather watch ¡Mucha Lucha! then My Gym parthner is a monkey. I just don't see why its so bad I guess I never will. But anyways I rate ¡Mucha Lucha! a 8.2.

  8.6 Great

  It’s a funny cartoon! hide « show »

  Oh, how I miss this show! I first saw when I started watching CITV, and it was so cute! Most people see it as a dumb and crappy cartoon. But I think it’s a pretty flash cartoon! Flea is the best character. I want this show to be put back on air! Nuff said!
