An alien warlord wants the device to equip an army to conquer (it's not cliché, it's classic). But his struggle is not so easy, as the forces of the galaxy are not all so benevolent. This person (a kid in the cartoon (probably) because that is their target audience) decides to use the abilities of the watch fight for good and serve those around him. Okay, fine, the presentation is aimed at the younger audiences, but the concept is solid super-hero-hits-sci-fi awesomeness: A person finds a watch-like, alien device that is 'the key to an ancient power-struggle.' (Presented like that, I'm interested already). To those of you who have not seen the series, watch it (at least one episode, start to finish) before you criticize. I humbly submit that age has less to do with it than one might think.

Here's the thing, though: yes, my brothers like it, and they are the target age group, I like it, and I am 18 years old my dad even likes it, a little, and he's 40 and hates cartoons. Yes, I noticed that it was primarily for 8-14 year olds, but I still found it entertaining. After my first episode, I watched another, and so on. My brothers were watching it long before I saw my first complete episode, but they will watch anything that moves on the television screen, so I thought little of it. Another pointless show to displace my favorite regulars.' Rarely have I 'Ben' more wrong, and rarely have I been this glad to be wrong.

It was mainly along the lines of, 'Oh, wonderful.

I was like (almost) everyone else in my initial reaction to the torrent of advertisements that Cartoon Network ran on a new series about a boy with a watch.
