RoboRoach

RoboRoach is a Canadian animated television series that aired on Teletoon in Canada, Animania HD in the United States, and Fox Kids internationally. It follows the story of a cockroach named Ruben and his brother Reginald. While scavenging for food, as seen in the opening, Ruben is caught and experimented on. His brother saves him, but when they jump into an electrical outlet, Ruben is transformed into a robot and cockroach cyborg called a roboroach. After that, he swears to use his powers only for the good of everyone and never for personal use, which is unfortunate for Reginald.

With Teletoon original airdates in parentheses:

The series is based on true stories about Japanese scientists who implanted cameras and mini-computers in cockroaches and sent them into disaster zones to look for life signs.

A 26-episode third season of the show was announced in early 2003. Disney Media Distribution owns the show's international rights.

The show Extermination! in the episode "Battling for Uberbucks / Death of a Salesbug" is a play on the reality show Survivor. The episode "Revenge of the Fleabrain" parodies Superman. The episode "Ghost Bunglers" is based on the Ghostbusters film series.

The episode "The Fly Who Loved Me" is based on the 1977 film The Spy Who Loved Me.
