The show revolves around four 10 year olds (well technically 3-10 year olds and a 700 year old alien who is actually 10 years old in our time apparently) and their adventures protecting their town (aptly named single town) from some evil aliens, along with helping out some good ones as well. They all have the ability to transform into a tech battle suit that utilizes various alien tech from ray guns, capture guns, and even spaceships that can take them to locations all over the city in an instant. I think Marathon has put out another show that blends action and comedy with very likable characters.
Cathy- Came with her grandfather (Mr.Smith) to Earth to create a secret society aimed at protecting the Earth from the threat of menacing aliens. She is a very active girl who is thrilled with learning about Earth's customs, although she has a tendancy to go a little overboard with some of the things. She has the ability to stretch and contort, use an old Rhapsodian energy trick like unto telekinesis and on occasion use other "deus ex machina" powers (although as the season progresses they mainly stick to her elasticity)
Danny- Is one of the cool popular kids at the school where they all attend. He seems to be aloof without a real care in the world, but when the situation is serious he is always ready to lock and load. He often chases after with no avail his crush Wendy.
Samantha (Sam)- In most cases she seems to be the de facto team leader, she is always organized and serious about completing any task that she dedicates herself to. She may come of as a little controlling but she actually has the best intentions at heart , also she is the balance to Cathy's randomness and at times has to be the guiding light of the team so that everyone can focus. She also has an addiction to video games, if you can sit her down.
Chris- The go to gadget dude. He may seem like an average kid who wants to be a superhero, but all things aside this kid is the Tony Stark of the team. He can not only figure out how alien technology works he can also reverse engeneer stuff to really help out the team, for instance he took a pair of miniture sound blocking earphones and created a giant sound canceling device (albeit they looked like a giant set of rolling headphones)Episodes are mainly self contained and there is no real overlying story (as of yet), so it is really easy just pick up from any episode and enjoy.
