One of my personal favorites!

"Superb"

By TFG1fan, Mar 10, 2009

This was one of the first Rescue Rangers episodes I watched when I was a very young lad! This episode made me learn almost everything about the Rescue Rangers and introduced me one of the best villians in this show; Fat Cat and his dim witted henchmen. Dale is my favorite Rescue Ranger, and even better, this episode focuses on him. Overall, the plot of Fat Cat trying to get rid of and tarnish Flash the Wonderdog's reputation (since he hates dogs and is upset that his TV show does not feature cats as superheroes!) is interesting, fun, and amusing (of course not as amusing to me now compared to when I was a kid). Animation is very well done (something that you do not see anymore in today's cartoons) like most of the Season 1 CDRR episodes (animation gets a little more sloppy in Season 2 episodes although not by a wide margin). And I feel for Dale that his favorite TV star, Flash, is not what he appears to be.moreless
