There is a new show on Cartoon Network called Ben Ten that looks interesting. The story involves a 10 yr. old boy by the name of Ben Tennyesen who, while on a summer camping trip with his grandfather and cousin, finds an amazing "watch" that gives Ben the amazing ability to turn into 10 individual and unique alien super heroes that helps him fight all kinds of evil both from our world and others. The show premiered today(Saturday) and was previewed awhile back.

The show seems promising and with CN's record of good adventure shows, such as Teen Titans, JLU, and the second season of Big O, this seems like it will be another gem in CN's crown. The website has info on the main characters including the 10 alien heroes, plays the show's awesome(IMHO) theme song, and even has the first 10 minutes of the first episode.

If you missed the premiere ep, the CN block known as Miguzi will be reairing the 1st three episodes of Ben 10 on this Monday afternoon from 4:30 to 6:00 P.M. EST following an all new ep of the Teen Titans at 4. Be sure to check it out; I've watched the 1st ep and it seems to be good.

O.O WOW! That definitely has potential (saw the website)!
(The only thing that irked me a bit was the alien's voice, but that's probably just a temporary thing.)

...too bad I don't get that channel...
Solution: call home and ask for it to be recorded!^^

Okay that looks like it could be really cool. Hope the don't screw it up.

Not that I can actually watch it, but hey *shrugs*

The art looks really good, it seems. But I'm wary of the idea, sounds to me like another Monster of the Week affair with Ben needing to change into the right form to save the day.

If it reaches the UK I may give it an obligatory once over but I doubt it's my kind of thing.

Man, I was hoping this was going be an interesting maths related topic or something. Turns out it's about cartoons. :(

Yeah I know, me too. Buggered me out. I was hoping for a nice math debate whether or not the square root of 10 divided by X and y composite from eachother can equal an imaginary number of norklofome. o.o

Yeah, I dunno. :crazy

no. Its obvious that tens gcf would have to be undivisble by n. though it does equal an imaginary number made by fexus.

After seeing the preview of Ben 10 on CN's site, all I can say is...meh. The premise seems interesting but the *****+ and characterizations seems generic and cliched and that ruins it. The art reminds me of Teen Titans Lite.

EDIT: +Why the heck the word s-c-r-i-p-t being censored? 0_o

Eh, I liked the preview and thought it looked cool. (Maybe I'm just easy to please) I also liked the other two episodes I taped today, but maybe you should watch at least a full episode to get a real feel for it. (if you didn't today that is)

Thats what the show should be about. Just flying across the universe. If the universe is infinately looping how fra back would we have to go to see our planet twice.

Meh, this looks like it really could be fleshed out into a good show, if CN doesn't throw in excessive unfunny jokes, generic cliches, and lots of the "Villian of the Week!" things that are all too common in shows. I dunno, maybe I'll end up watching it, maybe I won't. This show especially seems like it could easily fall into that trap, because of the need to examine each of the 10 forms in depth or whatever.
