Overall, the series is basically leftovers from 'Teen Titans' (another series which produces a vast field of suckiness, but that's for another entry), using what looks like old monster designs by Murakami that never made the air(oddly enough, Bruce Timm has stated if not for Murakami's talent for drawing 'strange alien creatures', he'd never have been hired many years ago).
Besides the 'leftover serving' feeling that 'Ben 10' has, there's something else that bothers me. The premise of the series is a young boy finds an alien device that turns him into different superheroes every time he uses it. Hmm, now where have I heard of this premise before?
Ahh, that's right. Overall, that sums up my feelings. 'Ben 10' is about using the premise of 'Dial H for Hero' by using the leftover scrapings from 'Teen Titans' without having to pay the owner any money whatsoever.
I've never subjected myself to more than one full episode of the series, but what I've seen isn't promising. The main character, Ben, is a rather mean spirited, unintelligent child. A strange part of me cannot watch a television program when there is a lack of someone to 'root' for, so to speak. But here we are, with bargain basement superhero toons, made up from leftovers from another series and using an idea without having to pay for it.
Naturally I wrote all of this myself and didn't just copy paste it from the first thing that came up from a google search of 'ben 10 sucks'. Yup.
