| Posted By: Tetsu Deinonychus Posted On: Apr 7, 2006 Views: 706 | Code Lyoko Code Lyoko is my pick for best TV show right now. "My Name Is Earl" is 4th place and the others didn't even make my list. Mainsteam prime-time live-action crap (especially reality shows) aren't my bag. I know Code Lyoko doesnt look good at first glance. But, this is truly a quality show! The best ascpect of it is the character depth. The characters have truly developed personalities instead of being forced into their stereotypes. Sissi the snotty girl occasionally reveals a sensitive side. Mild-mannered Jeremie can reveal a nasty streak when hes stressed out. Tough-guy Ulrich has insecurites about his father. All this and more, makes the characters ALOT more 3-dimensional than many characters on other shows (both animated and live-action). My favourite part is the romantic content, particularly the relationship between Jeremie and Aelita. Ive always been annoyed by the lack of romance in cartoons and CL finally delivers! Sometimes an episode will even put the action part on the back-burner so it can focus on the characters personal situations (which often include romantic situations, but not always). Not that the action-ascpect is anything to sneeze at. The fight scenes are very well done (not as good as Samurai Champloos though), and Ulrichs virtual form is a Samurai meaning this show has a taste of Samurai-action too. Also, the fact that the main villian Xana (a litterally demonic A.I.) is completely intangible is really unique. Instead of sitting on a throne plotting his evil plans out loud like most cartoon villians, hes simply an evil omnipresent intelligence that posseses their friends and controlls all the monsters. Anyway, that's my pick. |
