The 1999 Cybersix animated television series is the second and last adaption of the popular 1992 comic book series of the same name. The animated series was well-received internationally, however in the US the series was heavily censored and criticized for being too mature for its young audience.[1]

Plot

The plot of the series is taken from the comic book series, rather than omitting the more mature aspects of the comics, the animated series leaves certain things unexplained and instead makes reference to them. The story follows the protagonist of Cybersix, who has recently moved to the city of Meridiana and lives as a male high school literature teacher during the day and as the leather-clad super-heroine during the night. Cybersix is soon discovered to be living within the city, so her creator and his clone-son frequently sends out their creations in an attempt to destroy her.

History

The animated series was first released uncut in Canada and Argentina on 6 September 1999, and was later released in the US on 19 August 2000 on the now-defunct television channel, Fox Kids. Fox Kids had heavily censored the series to make it more appropriate for its young audience, as well cutting down on the run-time to make more time for commercials. The series was later pulled off the air three months later on 4 November 2000, having omitted one episode and left the last two episodes unaired. Some episodes may have been recorded at the time of its airing, however, it is unknown if the entirety of the censored version has been recorded or archived. The Fox Kids cut of the opening theme song has been found and uploaded onto the RetroJunk website.[2]
