Honest Trailers latest TV show target is the 90s X-Men: The Animated Series. The show doesn't get their usual skewering, though, in fact, it's pretty complimentary to the series that sparked a lot of fans' love for comicbooks and superheroes.

That doesn't mean X-Men: TAS gets a total pass, though, as the awesomely cheesy dialogue gets its fair share of love/hate, and that weird final season gets pointed out significantly as well. All in all, though, the Honest Trailers take on this series will make 90s fans do one thing more than all others: desperately want to re-watch the series.

Man, there's a lot of great memories there, with the ridiculous stereotypes, the classic storylines, and yes, Jean and Scott yelling each others' names on repeat. "Prepare for a series that's about so much more than fighting villains, it's also about fighting prejudice," and yes, it truly was.

Luckily, X-Men: The Animated Series is available in full - all 76 episodes on Hulu, so you can start your marathon as soon as you've watched the trailer and finished reading this. That includes episodes by comics legends like Len Wein, J.M. DeMatteis, and Elliot S. Maggin, and story arcs like Days of Future Past, the Phoenix Saga and Dark Phoenix Saga, and hearing Cable called "The Wild Man of Borneo" repeatedly for some reason.
