Lloyd in Space

Lloyd in Space is a very unfunny science-fiction cartoon. Although created by the same guys behind Recess, it comes off nowhere near as pleasing. And compared to such other sci-fi toons as Futurama, it has very inferior delivery.

This cartoon centers on a green alien who's just becoming a teenager, but is a little too eager to grow up. Lloyd himself isn't much of a likeable character, and the whole world seems to be against him much of the time.

The one thing about this cartoon that really bugs me is Lloyd's bratty little sister, Francine. She has teleknesis, and too often uses it at everybody's disadvantage, but none more than Lloyd's! Francine is such an annoying twit, and Lloyd's mom seems very oblivious as to how dangerous she can be at times. (Remember the babysitting episode?) And most of the time, she's just plain irritating. (How about the one where she loses her teleknesis?) Francine makes Lloyd's life a living hell, yet she feels sorry for herself when Lloyd says or does hateful things to her. Other times, Lloyd even sympathizes Francine when she gets in trouble. This is all thanks to that overly-moralistic atmosphere that infests if not all, most of the programs on the Disney Channel. Unlike most shows, this sibling rivalry is TOTALLY disturbing!

Most of the other characters, namely Lloyd's friends, are okay, otherwise mediocre. Lloyd in Space should get credit for creativity, but most of what comes from this cartoon (characters, writing, jokes, etc.) falls flat. It's primarily the sibling rivalry that ruins this cartoon. Also, this cartoon follows that same pseudo-teen formula that's being done by the likes of As Told By Ginger and Braceface.

Lloyd in Space is a definite failure. If you haven't seen it, or just don't want to, then you're doing yourself a HUGE favor!

The movie is a brilliant artwork molded together by a human who is too cool for air in outer space (spoiled humans with their "air") and a living brain who's really smart!

This series is much more than first perceived. Lloyd obviously represents Jesus and his every day struggles of a telepathic sister, green skin, and petty robot clone.

The show represents Generation X and our urge to stick it to the man (reference to the episode of the same name).

To put it simply, this revolutionary masterpiece stands for all that is American.

I don't think it was the best animated show ever, as it is occasionally clichéd and formulaic, but I still liked it for its really good and interesting concept. The animation was nice and colourful, with stunning galactic backgrounds, interesting character features and I loved how Lloyd's house was animated. The music was a nice touch as well, the main theme is still memorable for me. The story lines were occasionally formulaic I agree, but they were also original and creative, and the writing was funny and smart. The characters were somewhat clichéd, Brittany's bratty sister persona is not exactly familiar territory, but I liked the character still for her looks and personality. And Lloyd is an appealing title character, so is Eddie. Also the voice acting was dynamic and top-notch. Overall, I really liked this show. 8/10 Bethany Cox

i thought Lloyd in space was really nice show. i liked the episode love beam #9 when Douglas beams this love thing at Brittany for Lloyd and she falls in love with him. Lloyd thinks it's great at first but then Brittany gets to attached and Lloyd either chooses stuck up- Brittany or head over heals for Lloyd Brittany. Lloyd chooses stuck up Brittany any when she changes she brings Lloyd to this old tree that has words on the tree saying Brittany loves Lloyd which she put when they were very little and just met. Lloyd gets told by Brittany that she has had a crush on him for all those years. adding really apologetic music in the background it almost made me cry. this episode is my all time favorite. it was very touching. (tear tear) i think that Lloyd In Space was a very good show.. before it got canceled. now it is only just a canceled memory show that is shown on Family channel (46) if you want to watch its on at 8 15am and some times at 3pm.. so anyways for any one else that is out there and is a fan of this show and feels my joy for Lloyd in space.. your not alone(: out of all the shows i have watched(cartoons) Lloyd in space is my number one touching heart filled show. thank you for reading this paragraph my very long paragraph i give this show a 10 of 10

Lloyd in space may fall into the category of your typical run of the mill cartoon, but that is not to say that this cartoon will disappoint. It won't. It has very likable characters that may look familiar, but its lead character is one of a kind. Lloyd has a lot to learn about himself and life in general. The interesting thing for kids is, Lloyd is experiencing his turbulent teen years in a world very unfamiliar to any of us. Lloyd has many adventures in space all the while learning very important life lessons. The first episode when Lloyd turns thirteen is very touching and insightful when he discovers just what being a man means. I think this is a cartoon all kids should watch.
