The show it self is good. Just mediocre special effects

Lab Rats is a pretty great show, especially coming from the live action department of Disney. It's my third favorite Disney XD show, preceded by Gravity Falls and Phineas and Ferb.

The characters, for the most part are well written. Finally: the stereotypical "strong, tall guy" isn't the bully. And while Adam is fairly unintelligent, he has his moments (ex. in Leo vs Evil he comes up a simple solution when everyone else was trying to over-complicate things). The stereotypical "small, nerdy kid" actually has self esteem, and is able to fight. And Bree, the only girl of the main cast, IS NOT A LOVE INTEREST! Sure, she has crushes, but what girl doesn't, and they are such a small part of the show. Even Tasha, part of the supporting cast, is more of a mother figure than a love interest for Donald. Plus she has a career and is able to manage probably the four most destructive kids in the planet. And Janelle, the love interest whose smart, doesn't put up with crap, and isn't even all that romantic, is a breath of fresh air. You go, girls! I will admit that there are some still very poorly written characters. Trent, for example, is your typical football jock bully. Principal Perry is that typical mean authority figure that everyone hates yet has to put up with (although I do like her in the episode Chip Switch). And Mr. Davenport himself is way too self absorbed (although I still like how he is a legitimate authority figure for the kids).

The plot of Lab Rats, which really starts to pick up in Season 2, is great. And I love how some of the first supporting characters you see in season one are seen all the way up into season four (ex Janelle and Principle Perry). (That is one thing that really bothers me about Disney's Kickin' It: Eddie is a main character for the first two seasons, but then he disappears without explanation and everyone else acts like he never even existed.) This show has its fair share of problems, but, all in all, is a pretty great show. If I were showing this to my kids, I would explain why some things shouldn't be tried in real life, and make sure they understand that its portrayal of school is not accurate at all, and then let them enjoy!

Don't let the name fool you. The name makes the show sounds very weird, which it isn't at all. The actors are very good, and the characters are very entertaining. The plots are also very entertaining, and not as predictable as the other Disney shows, which is wonderful. I was pleasantly surprised that Disney made a good show. They've been making some very bad shows lately, but this one was a home run! I'm in love with the characters. Bree is so cute, Adam is such an idiot and everything he says is so unbelievably stupid and funny, and Chase is such a know it all. He reminds me of Justin from Wizards of Waverly Place. Overall, this show was a pleasant surprise, and very different than the rest of the typical Disney shows. I love Lab Rats! Give it a chance! It's so funny!

Lab Rats is not that Good at being a comedy show it is better at doing action science fiction acts the first season was pretty good. But then at the second season it gets more sci fi then comedy witch I don't mind, it's just that that's not what lab rats is about. The fourth season is defenetly the worst, I did not like this bionic academy it is not what lab rats is about. Tyrel Jackson Williams is okay in this, so is hal sparks but the rest of the cast is just annoying. This show is very bad at showcasing girl power in seasons 2-4, the girls just become an annoying joke. I guess sconce it's an XD Tv show it's fairly better than most Nickelodeon shows.

"LAB RATS," in my opinion, is an excellent Disney XD show. I watch it with my 9-year-old nephew from time to time. I always smile and laugh whenever a mishap occurs. One of the funniest mishaps I've ever seen occur on the show is when Leo (Tyrel Jackson Williams) gets shrunk. Another thing that makes this show funny is Donald's (Hal Sparks) comic relief. If you ask me, he always know just what to say and do to make the audience laugh. The writing is always strong, the performances are always good, and everything else about the show is good.Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that if you don't have basic digital cable channels, you should get them. Now, in conclusion, I hope this will be on Disney XD for many years yet.

This show is pure garbage and while every immature 5 year old may love it, the show is full of bad acting, immature jokes and the jerk that is principle perry. the show hardly qualifies as a show. Its predictable and repetitive with Adam playing stupid the whole time and all of the jokes about chase being short or Adam being too dumb to understand the jokes chase makes. Chase is a complete jerk, Donald Davenport and Adam are the definitions of overplayed characters with Donald being a complete man child and Adam being a clueless moron, the show also has some offensive anti-feminist jokes aimed at Bree. Kelli Berglund is the only semi-acceptable actor in the main cast. Principle Perry isn't nice on any level between the writers thinking their funny by making perry make offensive and stupid jokes aimed at the student body, such as calling her students meat bags and wastes of oxygen.

Its very entertaining show.I watched the whole episodes and love it. The characters are awesome :).Bree is cute,Adam is look like dumb but he is funny, chase is nerd but he is good also and Leo half bionic person.Eddy was annoying and hilarious.

AND BOB WAS AWESOMEEE.

Lab Rats is hands-down the most entertaining Disney XD show out there in my opinion. Lab Rats has a great combination of comedy, adventure and superpowers. The name may not do the series justice and might give you know idea on what the series is about. But Lab Rats has an awesome plot.

The show is flipping hilarious for a Disney show. The funniest characters to me are Leo(Williams), Dr.Davenport(Sparka) and Eddy(forgot who plays him.). It tells jokes that for once not only little Disney kids can laugh at. Funny moments that are actually clever, not dry and overused.

The overall plot is jokes and a seemingly normal sitcom show. The story is based on 13/14 year old Leo Dooley who with his Mom, moves into his new super-rich new Dad's house. He discovers 3 bionic super-human teenagers with bionic superpowers and abilities in his basement. Leo learns to get used to life with his cool bionic friends, his billionaire step-dad and they go on crazy adventures in school, home and when the team goes on missions to save the world.

Leo and the Trio get into plenty of silly adventures and try not to get in trouble or reveal their bionic secrets. Adam has super strength, Bree has super speed and Chase has super smarts, the 3 S' of Superpowers! They can also do other things.

Leo is young and has no abilities. He's mischievous, clumsy and reckless and useless if not the cause of the problems the gang has many times at first. Nonetheless, Leo is the star of the show and although there are very very few scenarios in which he provides anything useful in combat, he's the one that holds the story in place and matures over the story until he becomes part of the group and eventually the guardian of Adam, Bree and Chase when his step-dad Dr.Davenport is absent. He teaches the "Lab Rats" to have normal lives as regular teenagers and have fun, but tries to keep the out of trouble at times. They save one another's lives at different points in the show.

The plot in most of season 1 is funny and entertaining, but season 2 is when it gets much more serious. They make enemies and meet foes who seem nice but aren't who they appear to be. The Lab Rats discover more about their past and about their abilities in hope to master them. They struggle between normal life and saving the world.

So overall this show has a great plot, decent comedy and plenty of superpowers and action! It's a show that signals much-needed change in Disney shows. It's not perfect, but there are bound to be a few bad jokes here and there, they can't all be winners. Unfortunately, the show is in some ways, low-budget which is demonstrated mostly in scenes with special effects. Overall, it comes down to judging this show with all things considered. And all things considered, it is a Disney XD show. Any issues that might be considered major defects in the score are issues every single last one Disney Sitcom has, being why I grant this show a 10/10!

Lab Rats is one of those rare Disney shows where everybody on the cast has "It". The kids, the parents , the supporting, they're all perfectly cast. Even the house security bot is hilarious, "he" has some of the best one liners on the show. Luckily, all of the actors are great in their roles instead of just one funny kid surrounded by duds (like on a lot of Disney sets). The writing is consistent and funny, and it carries the show instead of just gimmicks. And the characters are actually written for which allows the actors to show some range. It's great the show actually has a continuing sub-plot with the Evil Davenport brother that should carry it through seasons. I hope this is one Disney series that goes on for years, and none of the kids decides they want to be the next Britney or Justin and gets the show canceled after a couple of seasons.

See those 10star reviews? It's a sign that the human race is doomed.

This show is utter garbage. It's so bad it's not worth the effort of reviewing further.

All I'll say is if you enjoy this you must possess the kind of mentally that would laugh at a spoon.

I mean, who uses canned laughter these days? And don't get me started on the "acting" or cheap sets. This is dumber than TBBT, and that's saying something.

"Lab Rats" is a Disney XD sitcom that aired from 2012 to 2016. The show follows the adventures of a group of bionic teenagers who live in a secret laboratory with their inventor stepfather. While the concept may sound interesting, the execution leaves much to be desired.

One of the biggest problems with "Lab Rats" is the negative messages it sends to its young audience. The show often glorifies violence and aggression, with the characters using their bionic powers to fight and defeat their enemies. There is little emphasis on peaceful conflict resolution or the consequences of resorting to violence. This sends a dangerous message to impressionable young viewers.

Furthermore, the acting in "Lab Rats" can be quite silly and over-the-top at times. The characters often deliver their lines with exaggerated expressions and gestures, which can be grating to watch. The show also relies heavily on slapstick humor and predictable jokes, which can feel repetitive and unoriginal.

For example, in one episode, the characters accidentally shrink themselves and end up getting stuck in a blender. The scene is played for laughs, but it's hard to find humor in the characters' perilous situation. It's also worth noting that the special effects and CGI in "Lab Rats" are not particularly impressive, which detracts from the overall viewing experience.

In conclusion, "Lab Rats" is a show that may appeal to young audiences who enjoy action and adventure, but it's not without its flaws. The negative messages it sends about violence and the simplistic humor and acting make it a weak choice for more discerning viewers.

Good for all age groups and has the potential to be an adult superhero show.

Most of the People who are hating on this show are clearly adults who don't understand it's not even for their entertainment and it's not even bad. As a kid I loved this show and my siblings did too because it was literally built to entertain us the writing and the humor were not meant for adults it was at most meant for kids and preteens. That being said if the adults could look past that they could see that the writing isn't even bad it has a good plot though alot of episodes sometimes don't follow a plot and are for humor overall the show has a storyline it follows. Plus Principal perry is literally played by Maile Flanagan who plays Naruto.
