Underground was trash, but I have to say I liked some of the designs.

I read a theory somewhere that it wasn't initially meant to be a Sonic series, but then the creators figured they could make more money by turning it into one. It would explain why the three main hedgehogs look completely different in style to the rest of the cast.

The designs were terrible, but no worse than some regular Sonic designs.

Amy is clearly best girl; not some shitty fan character.

If this series had an actual ongoing continuity, then "Sonic Underground" could be at least on par with SatAM.

But, to paraphrase my friend who marathoned the entire series once, the series is a great example of wasted potential. The concept of the show is excellent and could have been great, but they wanted to make the show so cheaply that they just gave up on putting any effort into things after the first three episodes.

Says the anon who likes the character that literally looks like a guy.

>>77443556
Wasn't the show created just because they wanted to cash in on kids as much as possible, and SatAM wasn't doing that?

I heard the reason they had a band was so they could sell their songs to kids.

Why did they have Jaleel voice all three characters?
Don't get me wrong, I like his work as Sonic, but WHY

I think that's the case for Underground, Satam, and AoStH. Watching all shows will make one realize that they weren't actually trying to be Sonic. They were more focused on getting on that 'furry environmentalist action show' trend at the time. and they were filled with original characters designed like Disney Afternoon ripoffs rather than actual Sonic characters.

Hell, even Sonic X and the Adventure games had that problem too, except instead of being too Disney they were being too anime.

I don't know why the franchise frequently strayed from "weird animals with powers fighting robots."

I wouldn't be too surprised, though I'd have to look into the show's production further than its Wikipedia page.

It cut costs.
They wrote two full episodes a week, you know. The writing process is described as being a cattle-call for writers, after which they'd pluck a few, make them write two episodes, and then throw them back into the pool.

I'll give Underground some credit: despite them never saving their foster parents and never finding the Queen, at least they actually killed Robotnik in their final episode.

Amy's not best girl, but she's pretty close. She has a good combination of "cute fashion sense alongside contrasting ostentatious hair style" and "psycho stalker crushing on MC" going for her. At least she's not slut bat, or bunny loli, or racoon loli, or shirtless chipmunk princess.

>>77443714
If you didn't know about the behind the scenes stuff you'd have to assume they "killed" Robotnik in the saturday morning one too.
