This show makes me not want to be racist, that why I'm voting for Obama 2012 election! I always hated that white guy who shoots fire, racist basterd! I'm glade Static "Whoop his ass!" like how the African American would have said it.
this show was the bomb. I wish I had a DVDs collection of all my childhood shows, I wouldn't need cartoons anymore; cause all they show on there now is crap. I'd still watch TV but as far as cartoons I just watch em on my DVDs
@firesoal6 I hear you man, I couldn't believe it when my brother actually said he liked that half naked animals show, kids of this generation don't know good cartoons
This show taught me some decent morals as a kid. Even though Static would be what most of society considers today as "one of those kids who will turn out bad", he used his powers to help others who were in danger and need. That, and the fact that it was gutsy enough to touch upon the topic of race, which most shows don't in fear of being banned.
haha i used to rub my feet on the carpet and shock my brother and say "I put a shock to yo system!!" He would get pissed!! lmao good days....#teamvirgil
@bmprelude : Same, but I think a live action re-boot much in the same way as Smallville would definitely work best. Especially if it was on BET. They need a great drama for their network.
back when cartoons where good,i remember an episode of stitic shock about racism,now i was watching gumball on cartoon network.WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED!
if my memory serves me right, that big silhouette goopy guy was the reason why static had his powers right? he was a bully or something that made static do some things in a chemical plant.. something like that right?
@Deathrashertv fox kids on saturday and back when fox kids still played during the week, and CN for a short time and Disney but apparently it wasn't as good as the proud family idk about BET though maybe
@Deathrashertv This show appeared on Jetix.It would also appear Disney XD at night. This show was about the life of the DC comic book hero Virgil Hawkins aka Static Shock.
this is probably the biggest surprise for me cartoon wise. I thought this show was stupid and lame the first time I saw it, but I gave it a chance. It was actually not bad and I was glad I gave it a chance. Probably one of the more underrated cartoons of its generation.
static shock was the most real cartoon out there. it talked about the issues of gang life and racism and people out on the streets. i cant believe they got rid of this show cause they played the race car -_-
I will NEVER forget the time he talked to Batman and Static was like 'where's Robin?' and Bats said 'he went off to join the teen titans...' i squealed like a fan-girl.
LOL u know you loved this show if you ever pretended to be flying away in the air and using static powers. Oh, and also being scared of / saying LOOK OUT to static when that purple/black guy ever appeared XD
when i was little i had no idea that richie's dad was racists and what gangs and death meant. Ever notice pretty much every black guy in the radius was in the gang fight that gave them powers
I love that when this show came out i was young enough not to even understand that Virgil was a different color, i just knew he was awesome. 90's forever!
@Urhoboman5 Sorry I mean static shock. The show is so amazing that whatever werdos who are still racist should of seen this show would be like "wow black people are just as good as white people"
@Urhoboman5 It's similar but i think its an improvement in music and visuals (plus Gear is part of it) it won't let me link the video but search static shock opening and watch the one eyeofraw18 uploaded
@Urhoboman5 I always stand up for my opinions. Just the intro says quite a lot. Fire superpowers, Elastic superpowers, these 2 powers are pretty much clichés at this point and uninventive. A guy trying to hide his true super hero identity while still going to school *cough* spiderman *cough*. Also, Static Shock ridicules all his enemies during the intro, which tells you that the serie is more oriented toward making him look "cool" rather than have an actual developped storyline.
Yet, it was an African American superhero (who wasn't a nerd, if I remember correctly, like Spiderman was), and his sidekick came later in the series, who was his best friend (Richie, I think), who was the super-smart one.
Yes, there's unoriginality, but at the same time, you can't make a superhero show without having SOME form of it being unoriginal. There's only so much you can do before it's 'unoriginal.'
static shock was probably the most blackest show i have ever seen that is part DC....not bieng racist

1) Cole gets around using parkour & climbing. Static just flies on a disc using electromagnetism.
2) Water is dangerous to Cole. It only shorts out Static.
3) Cole's not into masks. Static has a secret identity.
4) They have electricity powers, & friends who know about it.
5) Both their series have a level of realism.
