I tried watching the pilot for the series, but it was so annoying that I did not finish it.  It reminded me of kids' cartoons from the early nineties where the characters talked like auctioneers, there were lights flashing everywhere, and everything reeked of old people trying to pander to the younger generation with ham-fisted tropes (now it's cellphones and live streaming; back then it was skateboards and video game consoles).  The killer is that I could have gotten into the universe otherwise.  The world has an interesting premise, enough that I could have even gotten beyond my distaste for 3DCG.

I can appreciate trying to cultivate new fans.  G5 needed to do that after the G4 fanbase took a nosedive off a cliff about half-way through its run.  Unfortunately, the formula they went with to do so is a painfully familiar one that was obviously developed by a marketing department.  There is no myth to it and, like the premise itself, no magic.
