Tasha, Leo's mum, had so much patience. If I discovered that my new husband kept three bionic teenagers in his basement, I'd be out of there in a flash. She's an unsung queen.
Instant divorce
@@Hazel_TheOne Then there would be no show. Still loved the family bits
Which makes it weirder when she randomly acts entitled like trying to turn Donald's lab into a walk in closet
@@a7xdisturbed774 Honey, mind your Selective outrage. Okay. Chris Rock already exposed ya'll for it. Now settle down
@@a7xdisturbed774 That was kinda weird, but still BRO LITERALLY HAS KIDS IN HIS BASEMENT.
i cannot imagine the chronic back pain leo must've had from carrying the entire show on it. what a legend🫡
Facts😹😹
Douglas was a mood too
Leo is in the hospital right now
Shit. Leo, Adam and Douglas gave this show life. Taking them out of Elite force was a mistake
@@powerjolt7215 so true Leo and Adam were my favorite characters and it was wrong for them to take them out and Marcus even though I didn’t really like him in the show he was still a bad ass villain 😉😎🙏🏿🔥🔥👍
I don't care if it's cheesy. This will always be one of my favorite shows of all time.

Yep love this show and will forever
adam's "I wanna go upstairs." will forever be the best line ever

How does this not have more likes
YES
Lab Rats had surprisingly deep themes. Me and my siblings loved watching it together. But we all agree, after they revealed themselves to the world, the show didn’t know how to keep it interesting.
Yea I used to love this show but when the whole brother thing got resolved and there were a bunch of bionics it got really bad lmao
Agreed they should have revealed it too fast 💨and didn’t know what to do with the plot
Doing everything in secret was getting old and stale, for better or worse handling afterward, it really was time to move on from that.
@@ScionStorm1 I agree. I think they could have done some interesting stuff with the reveal. They just didn’t.
Lol
Tyrell's back must be sore from carrying this show
Legit damaged
I loved the mom and the dad.
Hal Spark is that great, as shown from doing all those vh1 specials shows. Imagine, say, Michael Ian Black in a kidcom.
@@mesousagaby740 I actually know Hal Spark from Queer As Folk the US version.
At least he didn’t have to try carry Elite Force. Mind you, the show was bad enough he probably would have broken his back trying.
“for 30 grand i’ll go away” 😂😂 that one got a chuckle out of me
😂
Cool
3:43
His face just says “I mean, who wouldn’t?”
Nobody can deny that Terry Cherry Perry is one of the funniest characters ever.
LMAO YEAH
TCP 😂
Imma be fr best character got be Adam Leo perry and Eddie many more
Believe it or not, she’s played by the English VA for Naruto 💀
@@bellablondon6172yeah I was super shocked when I found that out
I don't care what anyone says, Leo is the best character on the show. His actor (I don't remember his name) did an amazing job and kept him from being as annoying as he could have been
Tyrrell is his name
He was also in Everybody Hates Chris and I heard that show is good. Probably because of his acting
@@zeldagameryt4018 nope that was his older brother Tyler
@@jamielovesyt yes his older brother was but technically tyrel is on it but not often
@☆averagecabb4ge!☆ Yeah I was jut correcty the heavily implied statement that he was the main character.
Something about Mr. Davenport aggressively saying "So, how was school!?" cracks me up
I'm just replying so you can see how much likes you got
Oh my gosh, Prq7qe!
@@s-viper1462whos that
@lopez4059 From Snapcube's "The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog" dub.
it is absolutely one of my favorite lines from the show lmfao
Shows like this and Pair of Kings make me wish there were more action sitcoms. It's an interesting idea to put characters into funny situations, but also to have those funny situations actually have stakes and impact the characters
Omg Pair of kings was wild!!! Alex need to watch that soon
OMG! Pair of Kings was SO good!
Pair of Kings also has another thing in common with this: a bomb ass theme song
@@mianafernandesthe first couple seasons were; then Mitchel Musso got a DUI, they shoehorned his character to exit the show, they shoehorned the brothers of the show to be triplets instead of twins, & Adam Hicks was far different than Mitchel Musso's dynamic. writing characters out suddenly was jarring but I guess the show didn't care
Got to meet Dougie’s actor a while back. He’s now a head of a small LA film school. Such a sweet guy, I was at a high school film festival and he stood back for nearly an hour to talk and get pictures and autographs with everyone. Nothing but class from that man.
I recently went back to watch it. It’s a bit strange, but it gets better and funnier as it goes on. It explains why he actually has the bionic kids in his basement and some crazy plot twists too. Not a bad show at all.
Agreed, it was one of my favorite shows when I was growing up
The show actually tackled serious moments really well too.
Spoilers: When Leo accidentally blinded the girl and then quit because of it, or the kids finding out Davenport wasn’t their real dad. The show had some really good dramatic beats and knew exactly how to execute them. I wish it went on a little longer, especially the bionic island episodes, but at least it didn’t overstay its welcome.
@@ZacV47 I know right! I love Leo’s character development in this show. They all had great development. Going from immature, inexperienced teenagers to strong, mature intelligent teachers.
I really liked it. A lot of shows are like this though when you rewatch them, but that's because they're made for kids. Kids don't usually notice the weird things, and if it wasn't at least a little bit off, it might not have appealed to younger senses of humor as much. Davenport's explanation of the kids could have used some work, as well as they could have also had real rooms and stuff in the basement from the start.
May the odds be ever in your favor
The real story of how Davenport rescued the trio from his brother puts him in a new light. Honstly fondly remember this show even though it aired at just about the time i stopped watching tv
the redemption ark was great for douglas
true he became one of my favs@@MSS12217
The plot of this story is actually very intricate.
(Spoiler if you haven't watched this show from 2012)
Sometime in the middle of the show it's revealed that Donald has a younger brother, Douglas, who is actually the one who's responsible for Adam Bree and Chase. Essentially Davenport was a joint project that specialized in bionics that would allow robots to do jobs humans couldn't, but Douglas took the technology and implemented it into the genetically engineered kids and was planning to sell them. Donald in response to this took Adam Bree and Chase and decided to train them to help people, and keeps them in the basement in hopes that Douglas won't find them.
There's also another plot where a guy named "Victor Crane" who Douglas was definitely dating at some point but it's 2012 so they're too afraid to admit it genetically engineers a thousand more bionic kids to try and enslave the world. And he comes back at the end of the series with another guy and tried to put bionics into Donalds space colonists after blowing up the world with a nuke.
I remember Leo gets his arm stuck under rubble when attacked by Victor and Douglas outfits him with a bionic enhancement. Leo was bummed out bcuz at first it didn't have any weapons and Douglas eventually relents.
Also Big Bro Tyler James Williams stars as Future Leo in the time travel episode.
@@Boss_IsaacI remember that after that I just stoped watching and when I returned I realized there was way to many bionics and everything was wacky
@@theenderdestruction2362yup. After the big change, it killed the entire franchise.
@itsanoformedawg yeah, like the whole reason they were kept secret was that they were special, and now theres like a hundred of them with the same powers? Hell i didnt mind leo getting the bionic arm cause they gave a excuse, his orginal arm was fucking destroyed and that whole thing could have lead to some really touching and dark moments, where leo had to learn to accept his new arm and the fact that he still has phantom pains and sometimes he wakes up at night screaming, it could have led to a moral of "just cause someone has something missing doesnt mean they arnt human" it really could have humanized multiple charatere, the idea of leo loosing the orginal arm could have been a touchy subject for a good portion of the season because well that just happened, instead of a well thought out family dynamics of the kids and parents having to help leo readjust to life with a new appendage and all the problems that comes with said new appendage like having to control it, figure out the weakness, get him used to it, and other stuff im not knowlagble of cause i thankfully still have all my limbs, we instead got a whole lotta charaters that make the orginal cast seem obsolete now sense they do what they but much greater numbers, we got that instead of a season which could have been all about helping leo with trauma because most other times if i remember correctly he didnt really get any actual damage done to him, the one time he did? He lost his arm, which could be to Daven Port and his brother helping the kids realize leo is in a state of pure vulnerability, and he's gonna need time to readjust, also the bully character? It would have been great to see a new bully try to bully leo about the arm and him to actually defend him and him revealing that whilst he's a bully he's a bully with standards and he dont bully people about disabilities, hell he could have become a sorta frenemy like bufford or something, a person who'll rag on leo and co but only he and his posse can do that anyone else gets a beating
@theenderdestruction2362 it seemed so weird to make all of these people special, their identities out there, best part of the show for me was perry when she found out and everything she did prior to that, she's freaking hilarious, but now we focus on all of these new characters do8ng stuff. It worked best when things were more grounded and centered. My favorite eps by far were the future Leo stories, and those season ending episodes as well. As some point they'd raise the bar too high, and honestly i think show should've just ended entirely no spin off. Keep it ambiguous and move on.
Leo and the wall robot thing absolutely carried this show
Eddie was truly one of the characters of all time
As a kid I wanted to spill a Hawaiian fruit punch all over Eddie's circuit boards to permeantly shut him up. I hated Eddie so much
you forget Principal Perry
@@leoultimaupgraded9914true i love perry
@@nonexxistyperry I felt like was both a good person at heart but as a principal yeah no not at all
Chase is forever my fav character. Crazy how they tried to sell Chase as the brother no one would date. Oh and Spike is the icing on the cake!
Ready to risk it all for spike
I love chase. 😊❤
Spike and Eddie are the 2 best characters, 3rd is Perry
@@camoking5059 Nah Leo carried the whole show 😌
Ok, so story time! So I started watching this show around the time I were 10 or 11 so I were going through my whole boy crazy phase and I had the biggest crush on Adam, but as time went on I hated how he would treat Chase so it kinda stopped just in time for me to start crushing on Chase cause Spike had always been my favorite character…so I now realize I kinda have a thing for nerds and it’s probably his fault.
Lab rats is a concept that deserves better then what diseny sitcom could offer but at the same time it's those limitations that add to it's charm
Lab Rats could have made an awesome dark kids action cartoon. The whole concept sounds like something that shouldn’t be some slapstick sitcom.
@@ChainsawManDude97 they tried with Aaron Stone a couple of years prior. Iirc, a reason that was cancelled after season 2 was it was a bit too dark for DXD.
I may have a lab rats addiction, it is a requirement for me to watch the entire show at least once a year. I’ve even gotten my parents hooked and they’re quoting the show with me.
ME FRRR
I watch it everyday, I cannot help it😌😌
Fr
me
The best line in this show is when Adam says “it’s like how you don’t have to wash your legs in the shower because all the water trickles down” and it was that moment when my younger self began washing my legs in the shower.
i hate how underrated bree is in this show. i barely see anyone talk about her.
I mean her whole personality changed literally all the time (the writers really didn't know what to do with her) so it's kinda hard to get any kind of solid read on her character
Even as a girl watching this show I didn't really care about her my fav was Chase for some reason
I remember being salty because I always felt like they gave her the lamest powers compared to the guys
Bree Davenport is the undisputed ACE of Lab Rats!
@@ayyitsdaphne3760 i think all the girls either liked chase or adam, but chase was annoying and adam, idk why they need to make such a dumb character. London Tipton was much better written character
I agree with you on Bree
The writers didn't know what to do with Bree. It wasn't the actresses fault but they mostly threw her in as 'girl' where as Leo, Chase, and Adam were written with personalities that weren't just a gender. Whatever they thought was a funny girl plotline was assigned to Bree.
Lab Rats was one those shows that had a unique premise overall felt like it delivered I mean who wouldn't want to have Bionic Siblings! Then eventually Leo became Bionic. Definitely one of best shows on Disney XD besides Kickin It,Kick Butowski, and Slugterra.
Well partly bionic. His one arm and then his one leg.
Love slugterra
I fucking loved Slugterra
I liked Mech-X4
Omg I totally forgot about kick buttowski. I used to love that show
Leo is like the only relatable character despite the cringeness. And let's praise Tasha for dealing with theses weirdos for like 3 season (think it was three, been a while since I watched this💀)
It was three because for the fourth they move to the island
Every episode had a different scenario with no boring moment, the best Disney XD show
This show was an *ESSENTIAL* part of my upbringing. If Alex doesn’t like this one, it’s gonna hit hard 😂
W
Yeah same
If you remember the "everybody hates chris" actor who played chris, his brother plays the main character here.
Fr tho
Same legit was my childhood
Lab rats is one of these shows that have the most crazy story but still makes it good
the story was good up until S4, after the Victor crane saga, the show grinded to a slow and painful ending (although tbf I did like Giselle)
I didn't like Daniel Davenport
Honestly I think this show is just super underrated. I loved this show and then went back to watching it recently, the plot twists and storylines were super interesting as it goes on.
Every childhood show he thinks is crazy it’s a masterpiece for me
This one
same
So fun fact
1. For anyone who never seen the show, Donald actually save the trio from his evil younger brother, who later become a good guy
2. There is a CZcams channel that did 3 hour plus long video on lab rat, mighty med & elite force
bro 1. is just a major plot spoiler. lol
DUDE spoilers
what is the youtube channel?
@@joshuaspath6923 The show has been out for about thirteen years now. If you haven’t seen it yet, that’s on you.
@@starkidbubble2000Keyan Calile is the CZcams channel he makes pretty hood content
My favorite line from lab eats is when the tall guy (forgot their names) said to the smart one. “Do I look like i was born tomorrow?”
Btw Adam is the tall one and chase is the smart one
And Bree is the fast one
“Living in my basement!?” Is a classic
Living on a bionic island was where it was at tho 😎
I was so hyperfixated on this show in elementary school, I used to IRL roleplay with my friends at school as the characters 😭😭😭😭
This was one of those shows on Disney XD that I watched *religiously* as a kid. Even when the writting was garbage you could tell the actors were clearly having fun and it just *elevated* the material.
I just wasted a solid 20 minutes to find you, ive come to inform you that a bot stole your comment, and a good majority of people actually think its a real person. sadly there's not much we can do to combat this, so have my like.
I loved this show!! I hate the spin off show, but this and Mighty Med were awesome!! Also Alex needs to watch the two part special in season 2 with Dougles kidnapping Donald and them fighting Marcus for a lot of this to make sense to him.
I legit thought that would be the one he would be watching
Did you watch elite force?
@GTD yes I watched it when it was running
@@olicityfan1150 Did you like it?
@@gtd5626 no I thought it was bad
Leo’s “his wAT” is perfection 😂
I’ve never watched this show but 4:39 got an unironic laugh out of me 😂
Lab Rats and Mighty Med were probably my favorite Disney XD shows growing up. I loved the crossovers they had.
I like this show and a lot of the characters, but I hate how no one ever gets comeuppance for the vast amount of abuse. There's a lot the first episode doesn't even begin to cover, like how Chase is basically the scapegoat of the family and is always expected to be the bigger person despite Adam using him as his personal punching bag.
I know, right? And he's like God to the point where he could be president of like three states and leave this hellish family, but he chooses to stay
I mean it is a children's show so I don't think the creators or actors deeped it that much. It's played for laughs and brothers teasing/fighting. And in the later seasons Chase stands up for himself and fights back, especially as Spike
@@alizatheweirdo6040 ok so 😐
@@alizatheweirdo6040 do you think that Chase had done the right thing telling Sebastian about Krane since the truth about Krane could have come out anyway even if Chase didn’t tell Sebastian about Krane Chase was betrayed by Sebastian and Reece In lab rats Elite Force.
The best part of every Disney show is that it allows you to know everyone who did and didn't grow up with siblings around their age by what level of rivalry they consider "abuse."
Lab Rats is probably one of the DisneyXD shows I didn't mind repeating.
It never occurred to me that Disney XD was meant for boys. I really thought they were just trying to cater to a brand of “cool kid” tweens who felt that normal Disney was lame or something 😂 the more you know
It’s funny because in middle school (mid 2010s) Lab Rats was way more popular with girls than boys lol. I’m a girl and loved the show back then. Also in elementary school I loved Disney channel but in middle school I loved Disney XD, I thought Disney Channel was for kids and Disney XD for tweens and younger teens, sorta like Disney’s version of teen Nick or something. Idk, I think most gendered things are useless and just do what I want
i always thought disney xd was for skateboarders 😂
I just started rewatching this show and I have MANY thoughts but the one thing that will always bug me is that they didn't explain how the lab rats came to be. Do they have a mother? Douglas created them in a lab but how??
Test tubes, so they have a mother but i guess theyll never meet her
They mentioned genetic engineering, but I don't know how that stuff works
The implication is they are completely lab created.If there is mother or mothers, it either a donation of an egg or genetic material. It's a Disney XD show, this is a man who can create perfect human robot replicas overnight. It's not realism. 😅
They were adopted, so whoever their mother is is unknown. Davenport's brother found them as babies and gave them the bionic chips, hoping to turn them into weapons. Davenport stole the babies and raised them as superheroes.
@@pearlsandgrapes no they weren't adopted, he made them in test tubes, probably got some kind of egg donor or something, they said it in season 4, plus they said he "created them"
I’ve only ever seen small parts of the show, so I never understood what was happening, but the main plot of the whole thing is wild 😭😩
Same for me. I didn't know what was happening, but the actors seemed to be having a ball doing it
Y’all both need to watch it! It’s so good! The first few episodes may be a bit weird but as the show goes on it really finds itself and you can’t help but love Big D and Leo as you get to know them
I have such fond memories of the one summer holiday my sister and I discovered you could look up the tv guide online to find out precisely when Lab Rats would be showing, and we watched it nearly every day. Probably the only Disney tv show I actually watched and liked
as a younger fella, i enjoyed this show a lot. i go back to it every year, & watch at least one episode. the older i get the more wacky it is, but still the comedy always held up, it was a show that i felt like most of the characters were very enjoyable, & i enjoyed the storyline. it's still one of my favorite disney tv shows.
The guy that plays Davenport is hilarious! He has his own talk show right now on CZcams. Worth checking out
I love lab rats, also you forgot to mention that Big D didn’t make Adam, Bri, and Chase. His brother did. They also have a 4th brother named David and a dead robot brother and I can’t remember his name. Also Eddie is probably the best character of the whole school, by far
*Daniel is the 4th brother and the dead one is named Marcus 😉 you're welcome
Hi
I'm German this show was calls
S3 - strong, speed & smart
Honestly i grew up with this show so there is prolly some nostalgia here,but i think this is one of the best shows you can watch as a kid or even as a teen really. Yes,it can be goofy at times,but then there are some AMAZING episodes like the one where the whole crew went on against a bionic army or the one where they had to face Marcus. Really amazing show imo and i really recommend you watch the Bionic Army episode as well as the Marcus episode,just so you can see how the show progressed
Man I loved this show so much when I was a kid! I was homeschooled for most of my life, so I lived vicariously through the basement nerds with no social skills.
For a disney Channel show, the special effects of their powers (and not only) were pretty dope
Lab Rats was goofy, but it had probably the deepest core of a cast of any Disney show. I mean there was just no one unlikeable. I loved Leo, I loved the trio of Bree Adam and Chase, I loved Principal Perry, Douglas, Big D, I liked every character.
"I wanna see the pyramids!"
"I wanna go to Paris!"
"I wanna go upstairs."
shit makes me cackle
also always made me sad that we didn't see more of Leo and Adam in elite force. i swear they just forgot about them
You know that it’s gonna be good when there is a character named Adam 💀
so accurate lol
This, and liv and Maddy, were the only Disney shows I watched as a kid. This show was my childhood, and I’m glad Alex’s didn’t trash it too much
5:57 wait she did a front flip so you still may have a shot
2:45 now introducing the best character in the show
I remember watching this show like crazy while growing. Idk how I loved it as much as I did.
“I know you’re mad Big D”
😂😂😂 Oh my goodness I was so innocent when I watched this show
I forgot he was called that 😂
"You're face is prettier than a new pair of snow tires." Welp, I learned a brand-new sentence today. Thanks for that.
5:33 every homeschooled child can relate 😂😭
I’m shocked that Alex Meyers didn’t do this 3-5 years ago
The bionic trio must also have the power of avoiding severe cabin fever. Fourteen years always around each other, not even their own rooms, and confined to a small space. No wonder they wanted to be in a different environment.
12:55
Yes, I have. I love this show. I think it's still great. I never fully finished it. I'm still rewatching season 1 tho.
I will admit, while not as perfect as kid me remembers it, this show was still hella funny and it does get better as it goes along.
In the last two seasons, there are these two characters who become a lot more prominent (I'm not gonna name them cause spoilers) but they become some of my favourites in the entire show, they're so goddamn hilarious.
The show also does get a bit more mature, In the final season, they're on an island and they need to learn things like responsibility and growing up. It's really cool stuff *they also do some really dumb stuff but don't worry about that right now)
If it's any consolation to you not being a fan of the series, they get rid of the wise cracking AI bot like 2 seasons in.
literally described this show to a kid on my school bus yesterday and my bus driver overheard and said “that’s a kid show that is?”
this show was insane 💀
edit: to make things worse, these aren’t even his kids, he kidnapped them from his brother 😭
I frickin LOVED this show so much and that robot had me crying laughing all the time
One of my favorite shows ever its nostalgic and entertaining
A scientist that creates three children with superpowers in his basement... I feel like Cartoon Network covered this premise already, though I don't remember Utonium marrying a single mother.
Just realized that’s Hal Sparks. Who is a fairly minor comedian, he was the guy in the elevator in Spider-Man 2, but I remember him from VH1’s “I love the…” series.
As a former homeschooled kid, I can empathize so strongly with the Lab Rats' desire to go to school and do normal things.
i seriously forgot about this show. but seriously, as an 8 year old, this show was literally my favorite. yeah the writings horrible, the jokes are cheesy, but as an 8 year old who doesn’t understand anything or care this was such a good show. seriously i gotta rewatch this.
What's crazy is that Billy Unger (Chase) was already a Father irl before the 1st episode
Why was the “i wanna go upstairs” actually funny to me. Just didnt expect that & the line delivery too 💀😂
For me honestly when i watch the Lab Rats show a few years ago when things got more action packed, fun and has the best laughs ever for more life then i somehow missed it when i tried watching the Lab Rats Elite Force but nothing i feel speechless to this point and thanks for sharing this Alex Meyers
i remember having a crush on all four of these kids and wondering why i loved this show so much
You had a crush on Adam, Bree, Chase and Leo? This show must've have been your bi-awakening
@@karinajohnson4443 basically lmao although kickin it and pokemon played a part too
That new husband guy...He is a monster. Seeing how the show has a ton of nostalgia, I imagine it is great and all. But just thinking about it for a minute. That guy is a literal maniac.
This is one of the best Disney shows of all time. It'll forever have a special place in my heart
"For 30 grand I'll go away" felt that
He HAS to go over Mighty Med after this bro, those two shows basically went together-
The fact that theirs an episode where Tasha is the scientist and Donald is just normal
Just realized that Donald Davenport isn’t too different from Dr. Brenner from stranger things. They both created kids with superpowers. They both kept said kids locked up, isolated from the rest of the world for a big part of their lives to train them. Only Donald Davenport keeps the kids in his basement instead of a big lab-building, doesn’t have as many guards and other staff, actually bothers to give them names and is (at least not that we’ve seen) as sadistic.
Was I the only one who was laughing when he said “He has these 3 children living in his basement. So he probably either made them or took them from somewhere” because I remembered Donald literally stole the children from his brother 💀🤣
this was literally my all time fav and I re watched it recently and still enjoyed it sm
Leo is legit a whole mood. Like, he's the highlight of the show.
I'll say this, this is one of the few live action teen superhero shows that's actually pretty decent.
i still watch this show to this day and while yeah there is a ton of laugh tracks (like an ungodly amount of laugh tracks in the most random places) i absolutely love the show
I used to watch Disney XD all of the time and this was one of the shows that would play a lot. I remember loving this show. Principal Perry was the goat
Genuine thanks for making me remember Lab Rats existed (I once stumbled upon Elite Force in Netflix and watched it for a while, but it's been years since then and I never even knew that it was only a spin-off to begin with). Today I finished binge-watching all the 4 seasons, along with Mighty Med's 2 and Lab Rats: Elite Force again, and I had a BLAST! I laughed more than I thought I would and some of its emotional moments really stung (for a Disney show).
Tbh, I think Lab Rats and Mighty Med (but especially the first one) just became some of my favorite sitcoms ever. They also made me aware of all these other Disney shows that I watched so long ago that I don't really remember them anymore, so I think I'm boutta go on a sitcom-frenzy for the next few weeks...
Alex Meyers and The Cosmonaut Variety Hours are one of those guys whose none of videos felt gratuitous 💥
The best part was when they did mighty med crossovers and eventually had a whole crossover show
We don't talk about the crossover show
@@N3xus_Gamingelite forces was awesome
Chase was my favourite character, with Leo being my second. the two carried the show. i loved it, tuned out after the second season tho. it lacked the light heartedness that made it so charming to me in the first place.
but yeah overall decent show, especially for Disney.
i have been asking for this and i am so happy you did it thanks alex
I still remember this show and I love the characters and the story arcs in the show! It’s one of my favorite shows of all time and my second favorite Disney XD show! It’s pretty awesome! 1:55 for sponsor skip!
I absolutely loved Lab Rats granted it fell off in the finale seasons but ugh a classic not to mention my huge crush on Chase
Terry and Eddie were my two favorite characters on the show and they weren’t even around that much that shows how funny they were
This was one of the only shows me and my siblings could watch together
Maybe it was weird, but I LOVED Lab Rats when I was a kid
I’ve discussed it before, but Lab Rats has remained one of my favorite Disney TV sitcoms for a while because the humor was actually not that bad. Hal Sparks (actor for Donald) definitely carried most of the comedy, and I just had an affinity for all the technological concepts presented, even if most of them were referencing concepts introduced in other shows/franchises. Brief spoilers for Elite Force below if you actually wanna watch it, but chances are the taste may be bitter.
It disappoints me what Elite Force was in terms of basically ignoring most of what made Mighty Med, well, Mighty Med. Nowadays, I give the exclusion of Leo and Adam a pass since Jackson Williams and Spencer Boldman - their respective actors - were undergoing physical problems from their work; so yeah, still sad, but completely understandable - health comes first. But I don’t think the creators did their homework, and given how Lab Rats and Mighty Med have crossed over before WHILE MAINTAINING MIGHTY MED’S CONTINUITY, it’s baffling how the success and knowledge of THAT crossover special didn’t carry over to the idea of a full crossover series. And don’t get me wrong, the middling ratings of Elite Force because of those problems (and the fact not many had access to Disney XD) kinda add up as to why it ended on a complete cliffhanger, but despite the poor effort, they were clearly building up to something a _little_ worth our time - they might as well have finished it. As a kid, I kept checking my guide constantly wondering when it would happen. And after like two years of waiting, probably speculating that maybe they’re making the finale a big movie-type deal, I find it was canceled. The concept was already there from the crossover special they did, it could’ve been something monumental. If I had to defend it in one aspect, if you ignore some of the CGI used in it, the theme song slaps.
The reason it failed was because it was too much like Lab Rats and they had ruined most of the characters from Mighty Med as well. Plus some of the actors acting issues were glaringly obvious without some of the others to cover it up. Also, while mighty med was a good show they didn’t really do anything interesting with its concept and it fell flat for some parts of the show
I've recently rewatched Lab Rats for beginning to end & I am here to tell you that not only is Lab Rats one of my favorite TV Shows from my childhood, not only is Lab Rats one of my favorite TV Shows of All Time, but Lab Rats is easily the best Sitcom that I've seen since Boy Meets World, & is easily the best TV Show to air on either Disney Channel & Disney XD since Gargoyles.
Lab Rats' first 2 season were great to decent, but Season 3 was phenomenal & Season 4 is easily the best season of any Disney Sitcom of All Time!
The 2 best & standout characters from Lab Rats are easily Adam & Bree Davenport.
1. Adam Davenport is one of the most hilarious characters that I've ever seen in a TV Show & it helps that he was perfected casted. Spencer Boldman was on fire with both his line delivery & comedic timing. It's to the point that I'm surprised that he hasn't gone on to become a great comedic actor in his career.
2. Bree Davenport is easily my favorite character of any Disney Sitcom. Also, this show would eventually lead one of the greatest love stories of all time, me & Kelli Berglund😍🥰💖, a love story that didn't begin until I saw her as Crystal Tyler in Heels.
yo I loved that show, if I remember correctly Davenport kidnapped his niece and nephews from his brother, who was not a good person, but to be fair trapping the children in your basement and experimenting on them is not a very good person thing to do either
