* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: As a kids' show, it is a very brutal series that could be even compared to WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars except this show is 9 years older, however since this show is aimed at a younger audience it is signifcantly tamer than the film based in the same novel.
** This even led to Germany rating it 16 due to ValuesDissonance.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process
Changed line(s) 6,7 (click to see context) from:
* UncannyValley: While the show has some pretty damn impressive and detailed CGI for its time, especially for a animated series on a TV-show budget in the late-1990s, it still had typical aspects of 90s-CG that haven't held up, such as stiff moments, weird facial animations, and plastic-looking skin and surfaces that look like they were drenched in baby-oil.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Before its self-sacrifice to save the Roughnecks, C.H.A.S. reminds Higgins that he "[[JustAMachine was never alive.]]" Was this really C.H.A.S.'s evaluation of its own status as a living being, [[ObiWanMoment or just something it told its only friend in the squad to reassure him in its last moments?]]

Deleted line(s) 2 (click to see context) :
* FridgeBrilliance: In the episode featuring it, the Cybernetic Humanoid Assault System is a OneManArmy, massacring bugs by the score until its HeroicSacrifice. In later episodes, [=C.H.A.S=] units [[TheWorfEffect are effortlessly taken down by a handful of regular bug troopers]]. This seems ridiculous, until you remember something: at the end of the episode [=C.H.A.S=], Higgins explains via voice-over that the [=C.H.A.S=] project was scrapped; apparently, it's cheaper to train, feed, maintain and equip a human soldier than it is to build and program a single [=C.H.A.S=]. This means that the subsequent appearances of [=C.H.A.S=] units are actually cheaper knock-offs, built with less expensive parts and inferior tech -- naturally they're less powerful than the first one; they're using substandard versions, making the original practically a SuperPrototype.
