I am a 28 year old businessman.
I don't really watch too many cartoons with a 60+ hour work load per week, but... This show is like a drug you can't stop taking. I burned through the first season in a day after I got it from my niece, and I must say, This is a breath of fresh air from all the crap I've decided to miss out on. *cough cough* naruto *cough* bleach *cough cough*
Overall a 10/10 series. Newton is the greatest

Your story really puts a smile on my face. I always love seeing people operate outside of the social norms society places on certain socio-economic classes. If you liked this and are disappointed with Naruto and Bleach (understandably) You might want to check out Avatar: The Last Airbender and Avatar: The Legend of Korra (its sequel). While they're not Shonen cartoons in the style of DBZ, they still have a great action, humor, and a sense of adventure. And maybe you might want to think about employing some of that hard earned cash you're making in trying to bring this show back from it's still pretty recent death.
Newton is my second favorite character but Solomon's character design just barely edged him out on number one for me.
I'm with ya (31 y/o) but I don't like any of the Avatars either. I miss old thundercats and voltron type cartoons. The new thundercats I can sit and watch but fored to cause my son is a fan. The new voltron just plain sucks.
shareI'm a 30 year old, and I really got into the show for stoner reasons...watching cartoons with tons of explosions when baked is trippy. I also love Samurai Jack and the 2d Star Wars Clone Wars.
I have been very surprised at just how smart and mature this show is. The romance between Octus and the cheerleader was so charming, "I am Octus" shocked me with how deep it was, delving into robot existentialism, and there was another episode that took shots at underground emo bands which I thought was brilliant. The comedy writing is smart, and the characters are getting more and more interesting each episode. Not done the season yet, and what a shame that the show got cancelled.
I don't know whether I like this more or Samurai Jack.
