    ThiefHott Too much of everything
    Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
    BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
    Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
    griffiewolf Yes, it was a fairly cheesy show, yes it has many features of what we call 'old technology' I'm sure nowadays Kilokahn is shuddering only being able to run at 400MHZ processor speed. But it was a good show! I remember a few episodes and I own the 'To Servo and Protect', 'A Skorn In their Side' (my favorite villain) and 'The Glitch that Stole Christmas' Videos. It was still an excellent series for its time :D I had come up with so many ways they could bring it back but eh guess it's not going to happen at this point.Honestly, I know the whole teen superhero thing had been done plenty to this point, but there will always be a place in my heart for the shows that display such a cool fantasy, I'm sure at one point or another, Power Rangers, SSSS, VR Troopers, even Beetleborgs had inspired us what the possibilities are. Anyway that's enough raving from me :) I just decided to put in my 2 Cents
    Pepper Anne To cash in on the success of the extremely cheesy Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, USA Network ran their own rendition of crime fighting youths that would duke it out with some random villain on a cheesy set that dared not hide its blatant replications of the sets of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.The story involved a pack of teenage friends led by Sam Collins who often spent time in his basement tracking the digital villain, Kilokahn. Each episode had a generic story line in which somehow, Sam or one of his friends find out that Kilokahn was up to no good, after which Sam (in digital form) would make like a transformer and go up against the electronic nemesis. The formula was: Sam and his friends are doing something fun...then oops! Kilokahn...then fight Kilokahn...then happy ending. Sam's friends were like assisting Mighty Morphin Power Ranger types, each with their own skill.Frankly, if you were not a teenage girl watching this for its young star, Matthew Lawrence, I could not possibly fathom anyone else who would want to see it.
    Don McCullen While some may say that Superhuman Samurai was a second banana to the Power Rangers it was really a second fiddle to Ultraman (who came before Power Rangers/Sentai). SS was based on show from Japan called Grid Man which was produced by Tsuburaya Productions who in turn produced Ultraman.The show focused on middle schooler Sam Collins who gets sucked into a computer and becomes Servo who defends cyberspace from computer monsters created by classmate Malcom Frink and brought to life by Kilokahn an evil cyber being. However Collins along with his friends who help him with his fight with the cyber monsters don't know that Malcolm is in league with Kilokahn. They see him as stuck up know it all. Malcolm as much as he hates Sam Collins does not know that Collins is Servo and neither does Kilokahn.The Japanese counterpart does not last long and neither did this one, although it did produce a few more shows than Grid Man. It was fun to watch I admit, but at the time nothing could stop Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
    chowdr This was my favorite show when I was young. I used to tell all my friends about this show on how cool and funny it was. As soon as they saw it... They loved it! It was much better than "Power Rangers" because it wasn't as corny, it had some seriouse and goofy things which made the show great. Its too bad that it wasn't on the air for a long time.
