So, I started watching this today. Saw the first two episodes and I'm not really impressed by either the monsters or anything else. HOWEVER, I like the fact he's working for the Overlords (watching the dub) and is doing so not in some Science Patrol like organization. The villain's backstory is interesting enough, but even if it weren't I'd probably stick with it just to watch it.

I assume since you guys are talking about dubs these are available over here? I saw a DVD collection once, but it looked bootleg-ish, and it was really expensive.

I buy old VHS if I manage to see one of something like Godzilla or equally obscure, but it's more or less just to have.

I just saw the episode with a stop motion monster. Kind of bizarre, but interesting to watch. Also, Karis is hilarious. I love when he just wears human clothing when he's out doing Gori's bidding.

There are no more good TV Shows, only ones that haven't disappointed me yet.
