So there's this fairly new show, right? To quote Wikipedia:
The series is set in a fictional, futuristic Detroit, called Detroit Deluxe, which is an elevated metropolis built over the old Detroit. It is owned by evil billionaire Abraham Kane. Ruling the citizens under strict laws, and banning personal freedoms including automobile transportation, Kane now faces one last obstacle: a group of hot-rod wielding rebels who call themselves the Burners. Led by Mike Chilton, the Burners rise to stop Kane from conquering Detroit's last oasis of freedoman underground refuge dubbed Motorcity.
I'll be blunt here: YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS.
Motorcity is a fantastic show, to say the least, and it deserves so much more attention than it's getting. Unfortunately the viewer ratings haven't been doing too well for it, which is such a shame because it is so goddamned good.
Beautiful scenery, quirky and likeable style, dynamic and fluid animation, simply droolworthy vehicle designs, flawless blending of 2D animation with CG effects - I could go on for quite literally hours about how great I think it is, and that's just the visual side of the show, not to mention that the plot, storytelling, characterisation and humour are all PRETTY DAMN GREAT.
If you're still not convinced, I implore you to watch this action demo reel with clips from the show:
