/breathe in /breathe out No, I am not fucking around with you guys. I honestly think this should be annotated. I know I'm taking a risk with this, but god damn, it is the most overhyped thing that I have ever seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=playe...e&v=L0xjb07zGZ0 Honestly? This show is cheese. It's absolute CHEESE. I'm not talking about 'haha cheesy funny', I'm talking about 'tries too hard to get your attention by being serious' cheese. Does anyone even remember a damn episode which sticks out? It's practically like Sonic 06, but not where EVERYTHING is bad. I'm talking about how much it tries so hard to be a good show, that it ends up not being a Sonic show, and everything just seems like a 2edgy4me show. Performances can't save this show, they just can't. It's a lame-ass show with the only redeeming part of it being the theme song and continuity. Notice how I didn't say story, because the story is just the same action-show except with a bunch of animals poured into it, and Sonic used for marketing. I cannot see how people love this show and praise it as the best Sonic show. Maybe I'm missing something here, and I'm judging it as a Sonic show, and not a series in it's own way. You can shoot this down any time you want, and any way you want. |

I actually never saw an episode of this, so I don't have the nostalgia for it that most people seem to have. It seems pretty well-made, especially for a kid's show at its time, but it also has that Savage Dragon style cheesiness that might make it fun to annotate. Also, this is by far Jaleel White's worst Sonic voice. |

I don't personally dislike this series, I enjoyed it as a child, but I probably couldn't watch it today seriously. But what is important to me is that SatAM is arguably annotate-able. Shit gets really cheesy, it has a plot you can follow but point out weird issues with, there's potential for material here. This is based off of just watching one or two episodes though. I gave it a basic "MST3K" test- just watched it and tried commenting on random shit as it went and there were definitely some things to be said. (I'd like to note on the side that I'm not a Sonic TAS fan at all- but I agree that we shouldn't annotate it mostly because of its humour style. The show is too ass deep in its own tomfoolery to annotate.) |

Now here's a can of worms I've always wanted to open for the same reasons you pointed out. I can't stand how Sonic's personality and abilities are always misappropriated and changed at random to serve the plot. The fact remains that we do things based on their quality, not based on their fans or creators, though those often help. When we do something, it must be because it has enough to mock to justify it's existence. If Salvage Dragon can be annotated, then this thing is annotatable beyond imagination. Lets do this. Lets knock this down a peg. |

loldidntwatchitsoidontgiveafuck I'd be up for annotating it, but I'm not sure it would get a lot of audience appreciation. :c |

I watched the first episode and I thought why hasn't this been annotated yet? It could kinda work... |

I'm a bit on the fence here. On one hand, I see why it could be annotated ver well, but on the other hand, it's a lot like Underground, and by the end of that, we were all tired of it. It's a lot shorter, but it's still 26 episodes of Urkel Sonic. |

26 episodes isn't THAT long. Nothing compared to say, SMBSS. Sides, no songs. That's another redeemable thing the show has. Also we have Jim Motherfucking Cummings. |

Now that I watched the first episode again, you guys are right, it has a lot of the flaws of underground, but does have more characters and no songs, so it probably won't be as tedious and annoying as Underground. |

I hated SatAM as a child, I don't really like it now... but it's got fewer episodes than Underground at least. If we annotated this I'm pretty sure I could join in without it hurting much. Who knows? I'll probably even grow to legitimately enjoy it like I did with Captain N.
Oh yeah, this worries me. |

I actually clicked the link just now. Never had I realised how much that piece of shit live-action fan-movie drew from this fetid fucking furfest. This show's blood... I wish to see it run, like a red streak speeding by. Yeah, that was me after watching five minutes. We've got to consider doing this. Theme song's still fucking awesome though. |

We can tell them 'Hey, Savage Dragon was enjoyable, right?" |

I'm pretty sure most of the people that DIDN'T grow up with nostalgia for this thing and liked it only did it because Nostalgia Critic said so.

I'd be game if this came to pass. I've personally seen several episodes myself, and I just can't get why the Sonic fan enjoy this series (outside the obvious). |
