**** yeah. One of the best Man of Action series produced and (un)fortunately the last great shows they ever created.
 
Yeah, I adored this show when it first appeared, loved the overall set up, the characters, the 6 month change up, Six losing his memory, the way they gave characters a progression... But MOA did not handle it as well as they could. They had far too many farcical episodes, and as usual the MOA approach is "let's start off with a protagonist that is an idiot and a *****e and show how he never grows and changes all that much." There was some easing on that conceit in the series as a whole, but it's something that they can't seem to help. That last batch of shows also has a cramped feel to them. Still I think I would rather see a Rex adaptation in about any medium over a Ben 10 one any day of the week. Just to see a bad ass but fun Six in live action would be worth it.
