I simply adored this show as a kid and I still do. It's different from the other "Sonic" shows because this time, Sonic has a brother called Manic and a sister called Sonia and all three of them are in a rock band called Sonic Underground- hence the title and it's not a sequel or a spin-off of one of the other "Sonic" shows; it's a new series altogether (also, there's always an original rock song that the trio belt out in every episode).
Another change is that Sonic, Manic and Sonia's mother is a queen called Aleena who had to abandon them as babies for their safety from Robotnik but will reunite with them when it's time. We don't know when it's time but what we do know is that if Aleena does it too early, then it will seal Sonic, Manic and Sonia's fate.
The last changes are that, other than they don't have the voice actors from the other series, is that Tails isn't in this one. "Underground" introduces Knuckles ,however, in his first appearance, he's bad and Sonic ends up fighting him, but then he turns good.
But don't let the changes ruin it. It truly is an excellent and underrated show. It neatly balances action with comedy and a few thrills and it turns out to be wickedly cool.
All in all, a hell of a show with some great rock tunes. This is one show that I'll never forget.
score 10/10
