I worked on the final season of this show designing guns and hardware, so glad you gave it a good review! It was one of the funner productions I worked on in my early days. Thanks guys fun stuff.

0:14 ..... oh hey, new video. *rewinds* 0:14 ..... oh hey, new video. *rewinds* 0:14 ..... oh hey, new video. *rewinds* 0:14 ..... oh hey, new video. *rewinds*

the MIB series was freaking amazing, it had really great writing and humor appropriate for adults.

Max Steel, Jackie Chan Adventures, & MTV's Spider-Man... All very underrated shows.

Never seen the show, but I know the theme song is an absolute banger.

Men in Black had a great cartoon. The show had cool alien designs.

I used to watch the cartoon, but never realized it last 4 years

Jackie Chan adventures is so underrated lol,

The Men in Black show... not only was the theme song fun, the show was smooth and heavy, and Alpha was a memorable villain. Like an actually evil and powerful Hodge-Podge from Kablam!

Men in Black series: Best animated intro ever.

Man in Black series are awesome beside the animation is perfect

Somehow kid's cartoons based on movies in the late 90s (niche category) were actually pretty good

MIB TAS + Godzilla TAS + Extreme Ghosbusters TAS + Jumanji TAS were some of the best animated series of the 90's.

I used to love this show and when i tell people about it they deny it ever existed

Jackie Chan adventures is criminally underrated

11:46, this is actually false. In MIB 3 after K had been erased from history, J's new partners designation is AA. So basically they just start again with the extra A at the beginning. An example being AA, AB, AC, AD and so on.

Yes glad you touched on Alpha, I remember in the series he physically became less and less human. One time when he was working with Jeebs's brother, he obtained the morphing ability by joining bodies with him, but they shared a body & it was really interesting! Im probably getting some details wrong but yes! Good show, I enjoyed it. And the Quick Clones!

One series they made that you didn’t mention was the Roughnecks: Starship Troopers series which was always my favourite, along with the Marvel cartoons

this show was amazing!! super underrated

Adelaide Productions also did one of my favourites - Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot. Big Guy, Men in Black, Godzilla all had very similar design aesthetic

Great episode, guys! A bit of trivia: the excellent character design was created by the amazing Spanish comics artist Miguelanxo Prado. And it shows. The characters faces are very reminiscent of his own.

This show was always on when I came home from school. I have a pretty fond memory of it but I mostly only remember the opening sequence to be honest.

When I was like 10 years old, this and Godzilla: The Animated Series would air back to back as the two shows that closed up for Saturday morning cartoons in the late 90's and I was hooked on them. My brother and me owned the TV every Saturday morning. Loved this show. Still do. I have it on DVD, as well as Godzilla: The Animated Series and several others. Those were good times.

Men in Black: The Series was made by Adelaide Productions, the same studio that made Jumanji: The Series, Project G.e.e.K.e.R., Extreme Ghostbusters, Channel Umptee-3, Godzilla: The Series, Dilbert, Bog Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot, Jackie Chan Adventures, The Boondocks, among others.

OH MY GOSH its Michael Joseph Jackson

Can I suggest TRON: Uprising? I think you’ll be surprised!

it got a dvd release at least in Australia as far as I know, I have a copy

This show was my jam back in the day!

I loved the fact that it had a deeper and more climatic continuity and conclusion than any MIB movies. They knew how to escalate the tone into a more serious one and get the stakes higher, while the movies always stayed in a dumb-fun-american-forced territory.

I was really young when this and Godzilla: The Series were on Fox Box in the late 1990s. I was so young at that time that I have vague memories of these shows yet they stay with me. It's weird.

It did get a DVD release, I got it for my son for his birthday, he loves it

A look at the Godzilla 98 Animated series or The Roswell Conspiracies cartoon could be worth looking at after thing

David Warner is the quintessential Ra's Al Ghul, and you go with Billy Zane's bodyguard. This is why I love you.

I still listen to this theme song. And I loved the show. A lot. -_- PLEASE cover Extreme Ghostbusters. It was my fave.

HOW DARE YOU, GOOD SIR!! THIS SHOW WAS GREAT!!

I met David Warner a few years ago. He was brilliant and came over to me and my mates and started talking about his films.

I think the same studios did MIB, Jackie Chan, Godzilla and Ghost Busters! All great animated series...now I have to go watch them BINGE!!!

MIB the series was fan-fukn-tastic. It had a great intro, and the theme song is bomb. I can't believe you don't like this amazingly artistic style. And the still hold up.👍😀🥰

The first season of MiB: The Series was on DVD awhile ago as a Target exclusive. There are some rumors they may be putting more DVDs out. Also I love that it was David Warner as Alpha. His voice was immediately recognizable to me. Still shocked Tony Shalhoub was back as Jeebs. I think you guys were right that he was really busy and couldn’t return to play the role in the series.

That Jackie Chan cartoon was one of the funniest shows created, animated or live action.

Binged this last year! Fantastic story wise with overall plots along with monster of the week. Hugely expanded the MIB universe.

These keep getting better and better. This MIB show was one of my favorites back in the day.

I never watched this series regularly -even when cartoons aired for free- but one of my fondest cartoon memories is a scene where the disguised Worms collectively try to figure out how to to explain the weird behavior of their disguised emperor to a human, until they hit a eureka.....and they all say, "He's from Jersey!"

Christ, Adelaide Productions is not only responsible for the Men in Black series, but also: Jumanji, Extreme Ghostbusters, Godzilla, Big Guy and Rusty, Jackie Chan Adventures, and The Boondocks! That... is a sizable portion of my childhood entertainment right there! I never realized before that all that hard work and talent was coming from one source! Major props to Adelaide!

Loved this show....childhood memories right there. Up there with the first movie

The intros are always the best part of any cartoon

5:40 "Let's assume that everybody who took part in Galaxy Quest is dead or has gone crazy."

One good story they did was their take on the Roswell incident sheds light on origins of Alpha and K. Also they introduce agent L who’s the female side character.

One thing I learned from this vid, Adelade productions was responsible for a large number of my childhood cartoons.

I like how this was in the same continuity as the film and continue the story with J and K and even agent L. They even had the villain of the 1st movie twin brother come to settle the score after his brother's death.

Watching your videos is kind of my go-to when I'm really hungover like I am

I really like the later episodes of this show. The world building gets better and the Charecters they add create better dynamics

Man, Saturday mornings rocked when I was a kid. MIB, Pokemon, Batman/Superman, Batman Beyond. Just hit after hit.

If only the sequel movies had followed the cartoon.

The Men In Black Series was actually pretty good

I loved the cartoon. Just like the Jackie Chan cartoon🤷🏾‍♂️

I LOVED this show growing up! The storyline with Alpha turning bad and attaching alien parts then later cybernetic parts to his body was great. Would make a decent movie plot.

I used to watch it in the 4th grade still watching it....it's just so Awesome...Alien assassins, parasites, it's like mass effect

New Caravan of Garbage always brightens up my Tuesday, thanks guys!

4:08 "Aaron flux" omg editors gonna make a egoraptor reference. Did not disappoint. SUZY WE GOT A JINGLE JANGLE PROBLEM ON OUR HANDS. SANTAS GOING NUTS.

I literally clicked the like button three times

3:35 lol whoever made this, I love you so much

I kind of half believed that I was the only one who remembered this series. Like you guys, I remembered it vaguely but fondly. My favorite part is the really great theme song.

Did anyone else catch, how much like last week's video, this week's is ALSO a video? Very clever.

I LOVE the MIB series. It still retained the gritty quirky vibe the movies had even if some thing weren't exactly the same as the movie.

Watched this when it was on TV and it was great! Tony Shalhoub is also great!

That clip of the motion capture with Jackie Chan was for the video game "Jackie Chan Stunt Master" a very underrated game, that I loved. The cartoon series was great too but certainly did not use any motion capture for the animation.

The music from the intro was awesome

To me, the best part of the MIB cartoon was the theme song. The rest of the show was just endless riffs on the first movie: exploding head guy, tiny alien in human robot, J shoots tiny gun that blows him backwards, the car transforms, the aliens that drink coffee, etc. Those things happened almost every episode.

Seriously? There was a lot of great episodes of MIB. That time Kay shared a psychic link with a psychopathic alien; when Frank was being hunted b/c he turned stoolie on his pyromanic prison-mate; everytime Alpha appeared in an episode was genuinely unnerving, especially the episode when he stole Zed's brain.

Have never watched the show. I remember seeing the theme song over 10 years ago on tv. The monsters and the music creeped me out and to be honest I still find this theme song to be very unsettling

Quick correction: All the things that happened in the first MIB movie actually happened in the animated series universe too. A comic called Men in Black Retribution bridges the first film to the animated series and explains how K got his memory back in the animated series universe

Continuing the success of Columbia Pictures' blockbuster film Men in Black, the animated series sees the return of Agents Kay and Jay. Distinguished by their dark black suits and sunglasses, the agents continue to guard earth protecting the scum of the universe. I remember watching this series back when it premiered in 1997 during Kids WB's infancy and I've watched it progressively become worse and ran for 4 years. The show began decently enough - re-establishing the partnership between Agent J and Agent K that made the movie so memorable. The voice actors, particularly Keith Diamond as Agent J deliver their lines admirably. The writing was and still is relatively top-notch, with a healthy dose of humor. I used to watch it after "Superman: The Animated Series" and before "The New Batman/Superman Adventures" (later preceed by Pinky and the Brain and later Batman Beyond) on Kids WB Saturday mornings. I am HUGE fan of the Men In Black movies and I think "Men in Black: The Series" was a good continuation to the movies. In the cartoon version, Agent Kay (the Tommy Lee Jones character in the film) was back as a member of MiB, still partnered with Agent Jay (the Will Smith character). The rest of the series is extremely flawed. While the character designs are okay, the colors are extremely drab and lifeless, VERY characteristic of Sony animation. The soundtrack just drones on, particularly the monotone theme. Danny Elfman's movie score is WAY better. Heck, they even brought over an instrumental version of Will Smith's catchy but forgettable rap song "Men in Black" that played during the closing credits. Why couldn't they use the original movie theme? But the soundtrack is the least of the series' problems. While the series does right to bring back Agents J, K and Elle as well as Zed, some of other character additions are questionable. The Worms? They were mildly funny break room puppets in the arcade, but their squeaky voices and obsession with coffee in the series is definitely pushing it. It wouldn't be half as annoying if they didn't build ENTIRE EPISODES around them. Jeeves? Maybe, but if he keeps selling contraband to alien terrorists, why doesn't he get arrested? The head-shrinking thing was funny just once. Frank the Pug? Why? The show fails to be fully faithful to the movie - it seems like the MIB shoot first and ask questions later in the animated series. As a result, the slick image of the MIB from the movie is totally lost. Sometimes it's a wonder that they blow so many things up and get into firefights and are never noticed. The new characters are just plain bad. Agent Elle's partner Agent X is just terribly annoying. Elle was way better as a lab technician. And what's up with her personality shift? She's gone from the cool personality in the movie and up until season five to a crazy hothead. Even more annoying is the over-happy new alien lab technician. Someone should blast that moron with a noisy cricket. Men in Black: The series may be decent enough for little kids, but for older viewers, it's certainly a far cry from Batman: The Animated Series. While is does try to add some coherent continuity and decent storylines, it's extremely disappointing for fans of the movie like me and cartoon enthusiasts. This was a pretty awesome show think it had the same artist and writers of The Real Ghostbusters (season 3), Alf: The Animated Series/Alf Tales, Starcom: The U.S. Space Force, Dennis the Menace (season 2), C.O.P.S., Alvin and the Chipmunnks (seasons 6 & 7), The Simpsons (seasons 3-31), The Critic, Jumanji: The Series, King of the Hill, Extreme Ghostbusters, Men in Black: The Series, Godzilla: The Series, Futurama, Heavy Gear: The Animated Series, and Dragon Tales series. This show is a.k.a. MIB: The Series, MIB: The Animated Series, and Men in Black: The Animated Series. This show is based on both the early 90s Malibu Comic (which itself was bought out by Marvel Comics) by Lowell Cunningham and the hit 1997 Sci-Fi comedy blockbuster starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones produced by Steven Spielberg and directed by Barry Sonnenfeld.

The Intro has f&@** amazing

I just about remembered this show was a thing, but I always assumed it lasted like a season or something, but that's a really good run for an animated show!

What little I remember of this series, I remember fondly. This series also had a tie-in video game on PlayStation 2! Now THAT deserves a Caravan of Garbage. Or the MIB PC game based loosely on the first movie.

Been binge watching your videos just because I love your accents so much.

The series’ theme was composed by series composer Jim Latham. An instrumental version of Smith’s “Men in Black”, written by Smith, Patrice Rushen, Terri McFadden and Freddie Washington that served as the movie’s theme, was used as the show’s closing theme over the credits and mug shots of various aliens. The series ran for four seasons (1997 to 2001), expanding to also include reruns on weekdays. The fourth season (2000 to 2001) received a slightly modified intro to incorporate the new characters introduced.

Such a smooth transition 👌🏼

I loved the MIB animated series, one of the shows that makes me nostalgic for 90's animation. What a golden age.

I loved this series! I actually showed it to my nieces and nephews. Great cartoon.

I thought I never saw this, turns out it was my first video I watched by you guys.

grown to love Caravan of Garbage. Its my favorite series

I watched this series as an adult and it is amazing. And since I never saw this as a kid I have no nostalgia bias.

Similar animation to "Jackie Chan Adventures"and "Godzilla:The Series", I felt(both great, btw.) Didn't know they also did "Jumanji"the series too.

Tv show was mature and good, the opening music was insane

The song from the first movie is absolutely THE theme of the series.. It's a genuinely good song

I loved this show as a kid, they need to bring it back somehow

I remember seeing two Men in Black movies as a kid but my favorite is definitely the first one. Can't believe I missed that show somehow. I probably would've been traumatized and entertained at the same time.

the jackie chan adventures part took me BACK! WOW SUPER SLEEPER lol

This show is so underrated. I remember Alpha giving me nightmares as a kid

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do the other Frank Sinatra one! I have been waiting ages for that.

I remember only one thing from the series. And that is this one guy who stole body parts from aliens and added it to himself.

This is another of many parallels between MIB and Ghostbusters: both had above average cartoon series that could very well stand on their own.

Used to absolutely love this series. Also had some awesome Burger King toys from it too 😄

What had grabbed me for the brief time watching it was a season arc leading up to an attempted invasion. I remember picking up on the plot points that indicated that. By this time serialized TV was getting commonplace but not for animated TV shows. Plus a bangin theme song. Also funny you mention Batman Beyond because that show came on right before or right after MIB.

Captain Simian and the Space Monkeys was also a brilliant show. I loved it

Love men in black 1 and 3 don't remember 2. Still haven't watched the series but I will

Extreme Ghostbusters! I still watch it on Hulu

Some creature designs have some nice John Carpenter-esque body horror flavor to them, which is crazy considering that this was aimed for kids.
