CARTOON NETWORK PROGRAMMING NOTES: GENERATOR REX (TV-PG)
Fridays at 8 p.m. (ET, PT)
Rex is 15, and like most 15-year-old boys, he likes cars, girls, music and sports. But unlike most 15-year-old boys, he can make his fists the size of boulders, sprout a jet pack out of his back and turn his legs into a lightning-fast motorcycle. These talents are extremely useful to Providence, a global organization chartered to fight mutant creatures known as E.V.O.s (Exponentially Variegated Organism). Rex is under their care and is their ultimate weapon. Generator Rex takes place in the aftermath of a global accident, where microscopic machines known as nanites have merged with every living thing. For a select few, the nanites mutate their hosts into monstrous creatures called E.V.O.s. Rex is one such E.V.O., but unlike the monsters he and Providence battle, Rex has control over his nanites. He alone has the ability to not only control these nanites—allowing him to create amazing mechanical limbs and gadgets that aid him in battle—but also heal E.V.O.s of their mutation. Rex is joined by a team of characters including his sidekick, a highly intelligent monkey named Bobo Haha, his mentor Agent Six, the brilliant Dr. Holiday and Noah, a regular kid and Rex’s friend. Tune in Fridays at 8 p.m. (ET, PT) to see Rex face his evil foe, an evil E.V.O. named Van Kleiss, while trying to be a normal teenager.
UPCOMING EPISODES:
- Friday, Feb. 11: “Waste Land” – Rex and Six go deep sea diving and discover an entire civilization of evo fish—and they aren’t happy!
- Friday, Feb. 18: “Lost Weekend” – Rex and newly-graduated cadet Kenwyn are forced to work together.
