    This series was possibly one of the best of the 90's because it had a cool cast, cool stories, and furthermore, it was one of the last series developed, having a movie as its base (the others were obviously Beetlejuice, Godzilla: The Animated Series, Back to the Future and of course, The Real Ghostbusters and the Extreme Ghostbusters), not to mention its animation was very simple, but very fluid at the same time.

    It was a really bonus when they decided to bring characters like the Worms, Frank the Pug, the Twins and even Jeebs to the series, because it gives you the feeling that you are still watching the original movie and all its awesome characters. A 10 is too little for the out-of this-world series, if you ask me.moreless

  • Pop culture filled, movie inspired, animated nugget of J for joy!

    Not many shows based off of movies do that well. Buffy and Mash are two that I most notably know. MIB has a special place in my heart with all the pop culture jokes from Klingons to Air Jordan's the one-liners will crack you up. The intro is an instant classic and the almost anime style really suits the series. A lot of new aliens were introduced, you find out that K has a love interest and they do a good job of tying back to the first movie. All in all, if you get the jokes it's a classic.

    If you catch all the subtle humour you'll see it's more then just a kids cartoon and that's what makes it very watchable. That and all the crazy firearms they have mixed in with the special powers Agent J accidentally receives.

    It was hard to watch the last episodes because I knew once I did there was nothing new for J and K to do, but this series is an instant classic - at least to me.moreless

  • Good cartoon base off a movie.

    This cartoon was base off a good movie and i think is on of the best cartoons to come out in the late 90's. I use to watch it every saturday morning. This is a cartoon a lot of people slept on but it was very good. They should bring it out on dvd. I know some people would buy it and some will not. This is one of the best cartoons base off a movie.moreless

  • If the noisy cricket is funny once, it's funny a thousand times!

    Some things work fine in their nice little self-contained hour and a half universes. Like Men in Black. I'm not saying a Men in Black TV show was doomed from the get-go, but it hurt itself by not having the guts to venture from the safe little groove the movie had made for it. Jay is still the cocky and not entirely competent new kid on the force, Kay is still his inscrutible yet caring senior partner, and the show still tried, again and again, to get a reaction from Jay being knocked on his butt from the noisy cricket, the guy whose head can be blown off and grow back, and the jet car that can drive upside down. I remember one time they driving back home on the bottom of a bridge just 'cuz the writer thought it would look cool. They didn't even have to get somewhere really fast to save the world. I like Men in Black, it's a fun concept (and it made for the funniest Class of 3000 episode yet), but they just weren't willing to try to be different from the movie.moreless
