What happens

Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog is an American animated television series. It is based on the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series by Sega, produced by Sega of America, DIC Animation City, Bohbot Entertainment and the Italian studio Reteitalia S.p.A. in association with Spanish network Telecinco. The series aired a total of sixty-five episodes from September 6 to December 3 in 1993. It was syndicated by Bohbot Entertainment in the United States. The series features Jaleel White as the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog, a fast and wisecracking blue hedgehog, and his companion Tails (voiced by Christopher Stephen Welch), a young two-tailed fox. Set in the franchise's main world of Mobius, the series mainly follows the duo's comedic adventures against antagonist Doctor Ivo Robotnik (voiced by Long John Baldry) and his minions Scratch and Grounder. A spin-off video game, Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, was developed, featuring several original characters from the series. Additionally, on November 24, 1996, USA Network aired Sonic Christmas Blast, a Christmas special which was produced to promote Sonic 3D Blast (originally meant for the ultimately cancelled Sonic X-treme). The series has been met with mixed critical reception both contemporarily and retroactively: more favorable reviews praised the series' fast pace and positive tone, while less favorable reviews derided the humor and animation styles. In 2007, the series produced the Internet meme "pingas", based on an abbreviation of a line spoken by Robotnik in the episode "Boogey-Mania". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
