Ben 10: Omniverse
2012
Bow down and prepare for DOOM!
Zim dreams of greatness. Unfortunately, though, he's hopelessly inept as a space invader. Desperate to be rid of the annoying Zim, his planet's leaders send him on a mission to infiltrate Earth, providing him with leftover, cobbled-together equipment. To their consternation, Zim succeeds in setting up a base on Earth and infiltrating human culture, posing as a human child as he plots the planet's downfall. Only Zim's archnemesis, Dib, recognizes that Zim is an alien, and of course, nobody believes Dib's claims.
The Nightmare BeginsMar 30, 2001 · 24m · ★ 7.8Dedicated Irken soldier Zim is sent on a secret mission to Earth, where he disguises himself as an elementary-school student and gathers information about human beings. His plan is moving smoothly until an extraterrestrial-obsessed classmate named Dib takes notice of Zim's green skin and missing ears.
Parent-Teacher NightApr 6, 2001 · 11m · ★ 7.0After another day at the Earth skool, Ms. Bitters reminds the children that it’s Parent Teacher Night and that all the parents must come to the skool at the end of the day. Zim becomes worried because his robotic parents aren’t programmed for such a task yet and he cannot permit them to blow his cover, so he attempts to help them become the parents they should be, but Gir’s carefree nature soon puts his plans in jeopardy.
Walk of DoomApr 6, 2001 · 11m · ★ 6.0Zim goes on an outing to the downtown area in order to test a new guidance chip he installed in GIR, but when GIR removes the chip before leaving in order to store a cupcake, Zim and GIR are left lost and have to resort to public transport to find their way back. Their journey home is complicated further by Zim temporarily losing his vision by looking at the sun, his disguise being mistaken for that of a bank robber, and his escape from the police being wrecked by GIR replacing his extra rocket fuel with tuna fish.
Bestest FriendApr 13, 2001 · 11m · ★ 7.0When Zim makes a huge scene over his inability to eat lunch food, he overhears one of the girls at school talking about how inhuman he seems to be and how he has no friends. In an attempt to appear more normal, Zim decides to spend time with a student named Keef, though Zim soon finishes his plan and he considers himself normal, so he tries to get Keef to leave him alone. Much to Zim’s chagrin, however, Keef continues to follow Zim around, so Zim decides to take unorthodox measures to ensure Keef leaves him alone.
NanoZimApr 13, 2001 · 11m · ★ 7.0When Dib finally manages to get a picture of Zim without him in his disguise, Zim formulates a plan to shrink himself down into a microscopic size to get into Dib’s body and perform a brain wipe to prevent him from remembering where he located the picture. Fortunately for Dib, his father has been working on some technology that may just help Dib stop Zim before it’s too late, though he’ll been to be careful because he’s extremely vulnerable due to the fact that Zim is inside of him.
GermsApr 20, 2001 · 11m · ★ 7.0After Zim watches an old movie where some invading aliens are defeated by some bacteria, he begins to study germs more. However, when he discovers that such germs truthfully are everywhere, he begins a crusade to kill every germ in his headquarters so that he can be safe, which is helped by the fact that Gir had some cleaning spray handy in the house; though when the cleaning bottle runes dry, Zim must attempt to go to the store and get some more, despite the fact that he knows just how many germs are out there.

*SPOILER REVIEW* This could've honestly only been a three-day watch if I actually put dedication into watching it, but it just took me over a month because I wasn't *that* interested in it. Overall my thoughts on the show are pretty good, but I feel like a lot of it's praise is a bit overblown because it has a way more dark tone compared to other Nickelodeon shows and has been looked as a black sheep in the studio's catalog and raided Hot Topic ever since. I will admit seeing pretty dark and graphic in a show that was targeted to families is pretty cool, but after a dozen or so episodes, the show stops having these really dark moments, probably because Nick didn't like *how* dark it could get. Like in the second episode, A kid gets his eyes popped out and of course the infamous "Dark Harvest" episode which has sense been linked to a real world crime, but I'm just say this, if you say something "inspired" you do a crime, you were gonna do it anyway, you would just be pointing the finger to the creators who had nothing to do with it. So yeah, it's main appeal of being graphicly dark wears off in the first dozen or so episodes, so what else does the have? Well, I guess I could talk about the characters. Zim was pretty good as the titular main character. I like seeing this enjoyably over-the-top, yet incompetent little alien constantly attempting to take over the earth only fail miserably, and I even like the fact that he's hated by the Irken Empire because ruins everything. I'm kinda mixed on Dib, because he can be really unlikable and acts really selfishly, but he can be really entertaining also in good episodes. Gaz is also enjoyable, but unfortunately the shows doesn't give her a lot of time to shine. Same can be said about Professor Membrane, but barely gets any time to shine, but the moments he had were hilarious. and of course, GIR. GIR, best character in the whole show and I totally understand the hype around him. I mean it's GIR!!! He's so precious, I loved watching that little ball of cuteness just be GIR and I would totally buy a plushie of him. I've noticed that most of my favorite episodes involve that actual Irken Empire, which made me realize that the show barely ever tries to flesh out this race of aliens and their world which made me pretty disappointed, but maybe the comics dive into it more, so who knows. The Taller duo could be pretty fun sometimes and it's cute that it's just because of their height gives them power. After that, I don't have too much to add. Good show, enjoyable characters, cool art direction, rad dark moments, but with some comedy that doesn't really work for me. Best episode (in my opinion): Backseat Drivers from Beyond the Stars Weakest episode: Bolognius Maximus 3/2/23 Edit: I watch the pilot, it was okay. I mean it got the style right in all, but the story was incredibly basic and the voices for Zim and GIR in the pilot just don’t fit those characters at all, also the teeth for Dib was just gross
