From the other I will say the following (a great show worth watching and yes contains problems but all the shows have problems so don't worry about the problems and focused on great things like the characters and the convincing voice acting of all the crew, especially Wally Kurth, J.K. Simmons, Troy Baker, Darryl Sabbara, Gray, John Demago and even Fred Savage, etc., the show is perfect despite its flaws and its plot, but that's not what I'd like to talk about right now).
What I want to talk about is how much this show was shown at the wrong time, and if this year's show would have been one of the best shows ever, I demand man of action to make the fourth season taking advantage of the current circumstances because it would be a successful hit for the series.
The series does a wonderful equality for both sexes in terms of action and the status of women and you have strong female characters and not made up like Dr. Holliday or Black Knight and even Claire and anni are Great examples.
WITHOUT ANY DOUBT AND ONE OF THE BEST ANIMATED SERIES OF ALL TIME, HAVING A FANTASTIC STORYLINE RICH IN DETAILS AND IMPECCABLE, WRAPPING NARATIVE.
GENERATOR REX HAS A GREAT TIMELINE WITH MOST SAGAS,AND THE ANIMATION STYLE INSPIRED IN ANIMES IS ALSO VERY BEAUTIFUL AND STYLISH.
AND THROUGHOUT THE CAST SHOWS A GLORIOUS PERFORMANCE, Daryl Sabara, THE GREAT John DiMaggio AND OSCAR WINNER JK SIMMONS
This series was pretty awesome, I'll admit. The dangerous and unstable world built from these microscopic robots named nanites that causes people to kind of mutate into monsters were immersive and made some creative designs of those monsters.
As the main character we have the teenage boy Rex who works for this police force called Providence, because he is the only one able to cure the nanites and bring these mutated people back to their normal self after the big event causing everyone and everything on the planet to be infected by them. At the same time Rex does not know about his past, who he was before becoming a soldier of Providence, and therefore he'll keep you interested throughout the show.
But he is not the only well rounded character in this show, because there are many cool characters in here with enough back story to them to make them interesting and engaging in there actions. The wisecracking monkey Bobo may be the least interesting of them and serves more like a comic relief character, but Agent Six, White Knight, Dr. Holiday and Circe are worth paying attention to.
There are more to see in this series, because aside from the main villain Van Kleiss, we get different kinds of recurring villains of which some are seen more often than others. Nonetheless, they are well acted and can be intimidating in their designs, but no graphic violence is in here so don't be scared to let ten-year-olds or so watch it.

Though it is often overshadowed by other Cartoon Network series of the time such as Adventure Time, Regular Show, and Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, Generator Rex is one of best action cartoons in Cartoon Network's history, and was an outstanding hidden gem of early 2010s animation. From the creators of Ben 10, the series features a high quality of storytelling, comedy, and action acting in concert to produce what can only be described as an underappreciated children's TV masterpiece.
The story takes place five years after an apocalyptic event spreads incomplete microscopic nanites across the globe, infecting every living thing. These nanites activate at random and cause rampant mutations in their hosts, transforming them into creatures known as EVOs. Providence is an international organization tasked with containing or eliminating the EVO threat and studying nanites. The main protagonist of the story is Rex, an amnesiac EVO who has the ability to control nanites to a degree, which among other things allows him to construct biotechnological weaponry from his body. Alongside his caregivers at Providence, Rex fights to keep the world safe from dangerous EVOs all while seeking out the truth about his past and the origins of the Nanite Event.
In terms of storytelling, Generator Rex exhibits a quality not often seen in children's shows, especially in the modern day. In a day and age when good story has been increasingly forfeited to low-brow comedy and memes (i.e. the Ben 10 reboot), Generator Rex is a reminder of the fact that kids can handle complex, emotional, and quality storytelling. For all three seasons, Generator Rex develops a consistent and overarching plot filled with mystery, discovery, and character development that leads to a fully satisfying conclusion. It's the very best of what action cartoons can be.
Generator Rex's pacing is good, and each episode is satisfying and exciting, and most of them contribute to the overall plot. However, even "filler" episodes were filled with charm thanks to the series' humor, fantastic characters, and quality animation and action sequences. Man of Action, known for creating Ben 10 and Big Hero 6, truly let their skill shine in this series. It's worthwhile to watch through the entire show to discover all of its secrets and experience the emotional journey of its characters, especially Rex. Even if you're not looking for plot, expect good laughs, excitement, atmosphere, and music abounding in this wonderful show. I consider it to be one of the best animated action series of this decade, and though this is merely my opinion, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who didn't think of Generator Rex as a solid, interesting, and fun cartoon all the way through.
