## Synopsis

Sonic Boom (2014-2017) is an American animated action comedy series created for Cartoon Network and Boomerang, based on the Sega video game franchise. Its speedy blue hedgehog Sonic (voiced by Roger Craig Smith) teams up with his sidekick Tails (Colleen O'Shaughnessey), the tough echidna Knuckles (Travis Willingham), Amy Rose (Cindy Robinson) and Sticks (Nika Futterman) to stop the scheming Dr. Eggman (Mike Pollock). The engine of the show is simple: Eggman wants to take over the world, and his plans keep running into the heroes' speed, teamwork and quick wit. Each short episode is built around a fresh robotic threat, from giant mechanical monsters to the bungling efforts of his loyal robots Orbot and Cubot and a rotating crew of evil interns. The series runs two seasons and 104 episodes of roughly eleven minutes each, and it is a family-friendly, easygoing piece of television with bright colors, brisk pacing and a light, cheerful tone. Viewers who enjoy fast-moving kids' cartoons in the vein of Sonic Underground and Teen Titans Go! will find a similar playful energy here, with a constant stream of gags and chase sequences that keep the mood buoyant from start to finish.
