Summary: Sonic Underground premiered in 1999, and is the third U.S animated adventure to feature Sonic The Hedgehog, as with the previous two series, this show takes a slightly different direction and tone. This time, Sonic is one of three siblings, who together, are known as the hit rock band "Sonic Underground". In addition to being a rock band,Sonic Underground premiered in 1999, and is the third U.S animated adventure to feature Sonic The Hedgehog, as with the previous two series, this show takes a slightly different direction and tone. This time, Sonic is one of three siblings, who together, are known as the hit rock band "Sonic Underground". In addition to being a rock band, the siblings are also the children of Aleena, queen of Mobius, who hid her kin away at an early age to keep them safe from the evil dictator who overthrew her: Sonic's age-old enemy, Dr. Robotnik. Robotnik learns of a prophecy that the hedgehogs will one day defeat him, find their mother, and restore peace to the planet. He immediately schemes to ensure the super-charged siblings do not fulfil this premonition. But with the aid of powerful medallions, Sonic, his brother Manic, and their sister Sonia, are determined to take the fight to Robotnik and his SWAT BOTS, as well as take the fight for freedom to a whole new velocity level. NOTE: It was shown on the BKN (Big Kids' Network), which Sci-Fi was affiliated with until 2001. It was syndicated onto UPN, but originally was with the Sci-Fi Channel weekdays at 6 A.M. Central Standards Time.

Sonic Underground Theme Song:

Triplets Born
The Throne Awaits
A Seer Warns Of A Deadly Fate
Give up Your Children, Seperate
Bide Your Time, Lie in Wait
Sonic Underground
Sonic Underground
They Made A Vow
Their Mother Will Be Found

The Children Grow, Learn What's Right
Leaders Of The Freedom Fight
They Seek Their Mother, She Knows They Do
Is It Time?
If She Only Knew..
Will the Prophecy come True?

CHARACTERS:

SONIC: One character that definitely doesn't need to be introduced is Sonic the Hedgehog. He is the fastest and coolest hedgehog in all of Mobius. His famous Super Spin lets him buzz right through walls, robots, and any obstacle Robotnik can come up with. Just like the 2 previous cartoons, he's voiced by Jaleel "Urkel" White. MANIC: One of the new characters in "Sonic Underground" is Sonic's brother Manic. Being a drummer, his brain can sometimes be too busy listening to his own unique beat to focus on what's happening arond him. He doesn't have any speed skills like Sonic; the only one he has mastered so far is speed drumming. He too is voiced by Jaleel White.

SONIA: Another character is Sonic's sister Sonia. Her musical instrument is a portable keyboard synthesizer which also serves her as a gun. While Sonia doesn't have Sonic's speed, she has an unique ability: the Super Twirl, which lets her accelerate into a whirlwind spiral.Belive it or not, she's also voiced by Jaleel White. DR. ROBOTNIK: Robotnik is the ultimate villain, which we all love to hate. He is as mean and evil-looking as always, and more determined to catch Sonic and his siblings than ever, removing the last threat that stands between his final triumph. Voiced by Gary Chalk, who you may remember as the voice of Grounder from AoStH

SWATBOTS: The new model SWATBOTS are meaner and more dangerous than the version in the previous cartoon series. They are all hi-tech, sporting a red metal body and dark grey metal limbs.

Dingo and Sleet: Dingo and Sleet are Dr.Robotnik's evil Bounty Hunters. Dingo is a buff and muscle-bound dingodile who is in love with Sonia and not too bright however he is able to transform into anything. Sleet is a very smart Wolf who can make up very good plans to catch Sonic and his siblings.… Expand

One of the best cartoons of my childhood! Sonic Underground is my favorite Sonic universe and it’s such a shame that Sonic’s siblings Manic and Sonia never became part of the Sonic X canon world

As a kid, I absolutely adored this show and sometimes I go on Netflix and which an episode every now and then. It is really well written and the characters are all great. It's a shame it got cancelled.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have somewhat of a guilty pleasure for this show, the animation is bad, yeah, and the writing is, okay, and that is all the bad things I can think to say about this show really, Sonic himself is how you'd expect him to be from Adventures and SATAM, and Sonia & Manic are characters exclusive to this show and have never appeared outside of Sonic Underground, but they are written ok too I suppose. I'm not sure about Robotnik's voice actor, Robotnik looks like how he did in SATAM but doesn't have the menacing voice from it which seems odd to me.
The backgrounds look detailed and the designs of the characters I am mixed on, but the animation can get so lazy to the point where its distracting, take the episode "Friend or Foe" for example, the character Knuckles in it more specifically, when we first see him he looks well drawn and animated nicely too, but throughout the episode it seems like the animators just got lazier as it shows, by the end of the episode Knuckles looks really, off.
Overall its, mediocre, but I like it, could have been much better if they put more time into the animation and writing.… Expand
