Man, this is ironic! I had a few questions about this show! :D I've watched it once and actually I've seen all the episodes. I LOVE Speed Racer, the problem is that I have no clue if they're going to make more episodes! -_-' Seriously, I hope they are making more episodes! SPOILER ALERT: Speed just saw his father for the first time and now they decide to stop airing new episodes. And just when I decided to stop watching El Tigre! ^^' Oh well. ShadMaria out! Peace :D.

What Parents Need to Know
About Speed Racer: The Next Generation
Parents need to know that this cartoon glamorizes auto racing and puts a heavy emphasis on winning. Characters take plenty of risky maneuvers on the track and play quite a few dirty tricks on each other, some of which seem very dangerous. But although there are many serious car accidents, there are few injuries -- the show seems to exist in a world where drivers are always able to walk away from a wreck. Speed has a difficult back story, which adds to his character's mystique, but the show offers few insights into why a parent would abandon his son at an orphanage.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about winning and losing. Many characters seem willing to cheat in order to win, and the losers often complain loudly. Does anyone demonstrate good sportsmanship? Is cheating ever OK? Would you ever cheat to win an athletic event? How about on a test? Families can also talk about Speed and X's relationship. How would you feel if you suddenly discovered you had a sibling you never knew about? Would you welcome him or her into your family or feel resentful?

I love this show!! My little cousins got me into it. I recemend this to children at least 7 or 8 years old. It's very fun and funny to watch! And I am a huge Speed Racer fan, too.

long live speed racer!
this series continues the 1967 series. it is a continuation series similar to avatar: the lest airbender. it always leaves off in a cliff hanger that may or may not be solved in the next episode. once you watch the show, your hooked. i highly recomend this show. the best episode so far in this series, (my opinion) is "the note". this show has no bad episodes.
