cal-ombiacaffeine It may not be the best cartoon out there, but Atomic Betty isn't bad.Betty is an average fourth grader who doubles as a Galactic Guardian (that is, she defends the universe). Her crew consists of herself, the alien Sparky, and the robot X-5. Most of the humor in the show comes from the clash of personalities of the sloppy Sparky and the meticulous X-5, although the villains provide some good laughs as well.Speaking of villains, the main villain in this show is Maximus IQ, a sinister cat who desires to destroy the universe. He is "aided" by his bumbling sidekick Minimus (who is a sort of Jekyll-and-Hyde personality). Other villains include the Chameleon (a shape-shifter) and Iciclia, queen of an ice world.Though it may not be Kim Possible or Phineas and Ferb, Atomic Betty still provides some solid entertainment. The animation is solid and the characters are interesting enough to give it a chance.

blbbg1 I mean it is still a pretty flawed show. The characters are a bit bland compared to those in other superhero shows like The Powerpuff Girls and My Life as a Teenage Robot which had better character development. The episodes tend to get very repetitive but compared to most Canadian cartoons, it's not that bad. Like I said, it's not a masterpiece but it isn't as bad as most people say. Looking at TV.com's reviews; a lot of people hate this show, but then again, they are self-centered jackasses who hate it just because it was made in Canada. But really it's not terrible but at the same time it's not a must-watch cartoon either. The animation is nice, the villains are kinda funny too. To those who said it's a Kim Possible/Buzz Lightyear knockoff; you guys are stupid, just because it takes place in space and features a kick-ass chick in a pink space tunic doesn't mean it's a ripoff of either shows. Yeah Betty's bracelet goes off but it's not ripping off Kim Possible and just because she's a redhead too doesn't make her a KP clone. Anyways, this show was just wrongfully bashed back in the day when it aired on Cartoon Network and I strongly disagree with these so called haters. I used to kinda like this show back when it was still airing on Cartoon Network over 8 years ago but today I just look at it as another decent cartoon that's nothing special but nothing terrible. You want a terrible cartoon, try watching Fanboy and Chum Chum on Nickelodeon, now that right there is a BAD cartoon!

jediforce10 Some people who have watched this show have called this a Kim Possible or Totally Spies ripoff. I don't think that's the case though; Atomic Betty is nothing more than a complete ripoff of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. Let's think about it shall we? In Atomic Betty it centers around a girl named Betty who is secretly part of an intergalactic organization called the Galaxy Guardians from evil such as Maximus I.Q. and other evil doers. So with her friends X-5, a robot, and an alien co-pilot named Sparky they defend the galaxy. I can count out all the simple flaws and ripoffs this show does from Buzz Lightyear. The Galaxy Guardians are nothing more than a knockoff of Space Rangers. X-5 is a complete ripoff of XR and almost acts like him. Sparky is a blatant clone of Booster with how he acts. Maximus himself is a Emperor Zurg wannabe and even has a robot army much like Zurg. Just how uncreative can you get? I expected Disney to come knocking on Cartoon Network's door with a lawsuit in their hands so they could sue them for this. So amidst this blatant ripoff, Atomic Betty tries to have its points of originality, but there's nothing the least bit original in this show at all. The plots are completely boring and very predictable. You're better off taking a nap then watching the so called adventures here. All the jokes and gags are awful and not once did I laugh at these so called jokes. I know this is meant for children, but I saw this as a kid and still didn't find it funny. Each character on this show is uninteresting to say the least and not one is the least bit memorable at all. It doesn't help though that a majority of the characters are cheap clones of other cartoon characters. The artwork and animation for the most part is okay, but sometimes the animation does get choppy. Atomic Betty may have worked as a neat little show, but it just doesn't for so many reasons. The premise is terrible, the characters are bland and generic, the jokes are terrible, and it's a ripoff of a better show you could be watching. In the near future if you want to call a person to defend the Earth from evil aliens then call up Duke Nukem or Buzz Lightyear; NOT Atomic Betty.

Alex Peake Atomic Betty was produced by an awesome crew that I had the pleasure of joining at Atomic Cartoons. I worked as IT manager and Final Cut Pro editor for the first season and I had a blast. It was a roller coaster to keep pace with the raw creativity that poured out of the artists. One minute the hard drives would fill up with another hundred gigs and I'd have to shovel some more space into the artistic boiler. Next minute I'd realize there was another hundred gigs of art to edit. The finished product is something we were all very proud of.Atomic Betty is a show I wish I could watch as a child again, but even as an adult working on it, sometimes editing the same scenes over and over again, I never got tired of it. I watched the tapes as they were laid not only to ensure there were no errors but also because the action and laughs kept me hooked all the way through.Thanks to everyone who I worked with on Atomic Betty, and thanks to everyone who watches it today.
