Best movie ever!

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Dexter's Laboratory is now considered a television classic; it was produced before Cartoon Network's early/mid-2000s identity crisis and it had real balls in getting away with LGBT jokes and sex references for a show that was suitable for kids under 6. The genius about the show was that it managed to dodge many literal censorship bullets while it managed to take the metaphorical ones as well; I guess the intellect of television censors is lacking when they're assessing a show about a boy-genius who needs to be wary of his destructive and naive sister Dee Dee while trying to one-up his nemesis Mandark. Well I guess that part about censorship isn't true because the episode 'Rude Removal' never aired in regular syndication.Anyway this show is great. It's quick and easy entertainment for kiddies and will have enough thinly veiled jokes that adults will surely like as well.

It has been 20 years since it premiered. I have watched this show RELIGIOUSLY. What I liked about it are not only the designs in the characters and backgrounds, which reminded me of this old obscure animated film called LITTLE ORBIT AND THE SCREECHERS FROM OUTER SPACE (1979), or the pop culture references and spoofs, but I found out that Dexter had backbone. Unlike other cartoons where the character falls victim to the aggressor, where he looses, suffers and cries or uses dumb luck to get out of the mess, Dexter bounces back, he fights back, he bites back and triumphs over his aggressors! Kind of like what Flash Gordon, Superman, Captain Marvel or Buck Rogers did back in the great depression. After watching it, I felt like as if I drank a bottle or can of courage. I can take on the day without cowering. This show gave courage and boosted morale to the poor folks in need of some back bone. It worked well on me. Also, the episodes were exciting and it brightened my day! If I missed out on an episode, I can't sleep! (Metabolism, don't let me down!) So here my top 11 favorite episodes. 11. Mock 5 Direct spoof of SPEED RACER. This episode is not only well written but well researched! 10. Accents you hate A play on words on the word "accentuate" which means to make more noticeable, is deep and if anything, the big dumb bully learns the hard way not to pick on kids with funny accents. If you mess with one or three, you will mess with the whole bunch.9. Fillet of Soul A great spoof of horror films with good pop-culture references(e.g. Ghostbusters). 8. The Golden Diskette I love this cartoon, not because it is a direct spoof of WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY, because of the design and the song, "Your Brain is like a Computer". It just sends me back to Memory Lane (specifically the 1980's).7. A Beard to be Feared A spoof of 70's action films and blackspoitation pictures like SHAFT. I got a kick out of the groovy 70's music because I watched and listened to the TV shows, commercials and music of the 70's. Oh yes, I get it, there is some drug reference. At first, I didn't get it, but now I got it.6. Hunger Strikes A direct spoof of the 70's TV show THE INCREDIBLE HULK with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno.5. Photo Finish A spoof of James Bond movies such as GOLDFINGER. You see him team up with an older and pretty woman, Katka and fight one, which happened to work for the villain Red Eye! The music, pacing and design is awesome. This makes up for "Sassy Come Home" did to me. Turn me off. It also gave me courage! 4. Don't Be a Hero A spoof of super heroes. Of all the things I got a kick out of this episode, was the part where Dexter finally got bitten by radioactive spider and turns into one. When the transformation kicked in, it spoofed Spidey's spider-sense from the 1970's live-action show, SPIDER-MAN with Nicholas Hammond. I laughed so hard! 3. G.I.R.L. Squad Dee Dee. Mee Mee, and Lee Lee, start keeping a look out and try to take down a neighborhood criminal. I liked it because of the 70's music. It is direct spoof of not only THE M.O.D. SQUAD and CHARLIE'S ANGELS but the line "It's crime licking time" is a spoof of "It's crime fighting time" from the 80's cartoon, "C.O.P.S." Still, I loved this episode.2. Dee Dee's Rival This is why Dee Dee needs a spin-off. We get to see the day in the life of her and her dance class. I got chills when I saw her rival, Ogla Astrinominov or Lalavava. (Thunder clap.) What was that? My friend Stanley S. Swanson, creator of the web-series "The Sexy Stretchy Show" said that he had a crush on her dance teacher. Look up that show on Youtube. 1. Last But Not Beast I loved this show. This is the episode to END the show! I loved it, because it reminded me of the 80's and my love for kaiju eiga. The song being played is awesome! Season 3 and 4 jumped the shark! I recommend that show. Who know, this might inspire people to grow up to be scientists. Rated TV-G, but it contains mild cartoon violence and peril. Not to mention some images that politically correct people will find sexual (e.g. Miss Physics, Agent Honeydew, Lisa the Babysitter or Dee Dee's Dance Teacher, Ms. Babcock). I do not think it is fit for a reboot. Just look at POWERPUFF GIRLS. It got rebooted recently and I have to say that in the words of special-effect man, Roger Dickens, "It is the right project, but in the wrong hands." So give it a watch because it is rated TV-G.

Dexter's Laboratory was a really great Cartoon Cartoon. The story behind it was pretty good. A boy genius, Dexter, invents things in his laboratory, while trying to prevent his (In his mind) "stuuupid" sister Dee Dee from destroying it. He also tries to outbest his rival, Mandark in everything thats science. There were also some pretty cool side stories involving superheroes. Like The Justice Friends (An obvious parody of the Avengers) and Dexter's pet monkey, well, Monkey. This was the very first cartoon cartoon. Plus I'm glad they renewed the show for 2 more seasons in 2001 but it got cancelled again in 2003. Plus who cares if Dexter's Laboratory went downhill. I love all 4 seasons of the show.

This one of Cartoon Network's oldest shows and it still holds up today. The characters are good, the premise is original, and the jokes are great. The show is about a boy who has a secret lab that he tries to keep secret from his parents. He does many crazy experiments, and his sister often destroys what he is working on. That is a great premise. It is very original. Voice acting from everyone is good. The best though is the voice of Dexter. The characters are also good, and just like voice acting Dexter is my favorite. This was the show that really started Cartoon Network as a channel with original shows. Without this there most likely wouldn't have been an Ed, Edd, n Eddy, Courage, or many others. Dexter's Lab is an original, funny, and well made show that is one of Cartoon Networks best.
