Reboot!!

Hello all.

Remember the tv show Reboot? Noticed in my sig and avatar picutre under my name, I am a fan of Reboot. Reboot started in 1991 and finished it's run in 1997. However there was some plot holes during an episode in the 3rd season with a super-virus name Daemon. There was 2 movies released on YTV nad other channels.. Daemon's rising and My Two Bobs.

I have all the episodes on tapes. I also have a episode guide on paper.

Who here loves the show as well?

I used to watch that show while I was in Canada, back in the day.It sure was a great show. I loved Megabyte, he had such a good voice.

The plot holes regarding Daemon were resolved in "Daemon Rising", sadly, the series STILL ended on a cliffhanger with the conclusion of "My Two Bobs"

I thought the series ended with them doing a play or something, or sitting in an audience and there being little Enzo, and Matrix, and so on?

I loved that show! I still have all the original figures

Kellogs cereal did a promotion on them with little Mighty Max type sets and I got all those too. No one I know around where I live seems to remember it tho

Yes I know but I wasn't clear in message. Well it's too bad My Two Bobs ended with a cliffhanger. I heard from my friend that Mainframe has teh script already for the final chapter or something.

He got this while at a convention where he met the voice for Andria.. He has this picture frame and it a screencap from one of the movies.

It says "Stay Sharp, Frosty"

Matrix is the only figure I have left, I used to have Bob (the original) and Enzo. But I found Matrix one day and snagged him, I'm constantly kicking myself for never picking up the silver suit Bob.

That was Season Three's finale, which was the final episode for a while before Mainframe produced the T.V Movies and then split them into two four part episodes to create a fourth season on Cartoon Network

I loved Reboot. I still watch it on Friday nights!

*DrSpengler* · 05-08-2005, 04:04 PM

It was a good show. The first season was dreadful and the second didn't gear up into anything worthwhile until the end. The third season was great, however. The episode where they battle the Webriders and Bob finally comes back; hardcore.

I also found it pretty cool that the series didn't end the moment after they defeated Megabyte. The conflict continued afterward for a while.

I missed the tv movies, unfortunately. How did My Two Bobs end?

Ah. I see you have the "Eczema Turtles." Damn those variants.

I used to watch Reboot quite often back in the day. I loved Megabyte. Tim Curry is the choice for cartoon villainy. My memory falis me, however. What was the name of the woman with the white face? She scared me.

You have Tim Curry confused with Tony Jay.

He was also Lord Dregg in the Red Sky series, if I'm not mistaken.

And the lady with the white face was Hexadecimal. She was a pretty cool villain, though her obsession with Bob was kinda creepy.

Peanut · 05-08-2005, 08:23 PM

Yep, YTV. Reboot and Beasties (Beast Wars to the Americans). I still don't get why they called it Beasties here. Anyone know the answer to that one?

It's against television regulations to have "war" in the title of children's shows in Canada. Or so I'm told.

That only applies to english language television shows.

*Mecha Cow* · 05-09-2005, 05:29 AM

'Beasties'?

I'm sure with a little effort they could have thought of something more fitting.

Anyway, I remember Reboot, I think it was pretty cool. Didn't they live inside a Playstation or something?

Peanut · 05-09-2005, 08:54 AM

Well I guess it didn't stop them from airing the Beast Wars show on Fox here. It was only called Beasties on YTV.

I remember them living in Mainframe, a computer/internet sort of thing. They played games, hence the name ReBoot, and yet they were threatened by viruses. So my guess is, that they were certainly not living in a gaming console since those things are pretty much virus-proof up until now.
