 * 4) Good usage of CGI animation.
 * 5) The futuristic creatures from the original documentary are great to see.
 * 6) The futuristic gadgets and the Time Flyer (a time machine from 12,000 A.D.  that C.G. and the gang used to travel through the three different eras in the future) are really cool and awesome to see.
 * 7) Interesting premise.
 * 8) Good story and characters.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The show only lasted for one season with 26 episodes.
