    For all you people say "Give it a chance!", you think I haven't given it a chance? Do you know how much I used to adore Nick and Disney Channel? I watched the brand new shit they put on there for hours and waited for it to get better. Never did. Now there are only a few good show left on Nick and nothing on Disney. Shut the hell up because I know what I'm saying when I say that this show is SHIT.

    The special effects are sad. So sad. I mean, in a time like this, can't you make all the aliens that the main characters are fighting

    The main characters themselves are very irritating and stupid. As usual, the smart girl character is way hyped up. All so boring and typical.

    So it gets a two.moreless

    Well I liked this show but there are many down sides and up sides to it.

    Good: It was pretty amusing with the polt. I like the gears and the monsters are pretty cool.....kinda.

    Bad: Buget cuts! There effects are totally fake, even the monsters! It ends in pretty much the same way and it is plain annoying! So mostly I hated it.

  • Should I Be ashamed to call this show Abysmal.

    Which is more duller ''The Troop'' or ''Watching Grass Grow''. Personally The Troop is Duller. Ok , First of all, Whow watches this show (I Am even ashamed to call this a show). Also this show seems to be a Ripoff of the Jetix show ''Monster Buster Club (MBC)'' That was horrible, than this show comes thats even worse than MBC. Where did they find the cast in this show, There about the Ugliest People I Have ever seen on TV. But this is defianatly the worst Nickelodeon L;ive action ever (along with ''Naked Brothers Band''). Also lets not forget the editing, Special Effects and CGI Monsters. Thats the worst and most fakest Editing I Have ever seen (Probably even worse than Power rangers). This show is supposed to be Funny, But all it does is making the show even worse. I Dont recomened the show to anybody.moreless

  • If I really wanted to see a show about a group of humans fighting aliens, I would watch the Men in Black movies and cartoon series

    The Troop is just another one of those shows that the moment you saw a promotion about it, it looked uninteresting and unoriginal. The show is about a group of friends named Jake, Hayley, and Felix. They are part of an organization called The Troop, whose main mission is to defend the city and world from aliens (gee, whee have I heard that story line before?). Now while the storyline is rehashed from other shows, most shows can make them interesting with twists and new features added, but The Troop throws that idea out the window. The actors and actresses are all terrible in this show. Their characters are rather undeveloped and lack a personality to them, most of them are annoying, they either underact or go way over the top, and the dialogue they speak is terrible. The monsters are just flat out ridiculous. I feel like I am looking at monsters from a cheesy 50s or 60s sci fi movie, but at least they were humorous for that time, but this doesn't work. The monsters look like someone on the set was forced to run out to a local Walmart or Party City and get the costumes which were probably $5 each. Even the animations for the monsters look really bad, and they move like they have arthritis. Also the special effects in this movie are just terrible. Everything looks so out of date in the CGI and nothing even looks interesting. The weapons The Troop uses are also laughable. Why are they big blue guns the way to take out aliens? Couldn't they make the weapons a little more realistic and sci fi looking? They look more like Super Soakers then lasers. The Troop is also located in probably the stupidest location, a school where the main heroes attend. Could they not find another area or something? It comes off rather stupid. Sorry all of you The Troop fans, but this show is just unoriginal and uninspired to say the least. If you want a show about humans fighting aliens, just see the Men in Black movies and cartoon instead. You aren't missing anything in this show.moreless
