K. Alexander Smith Paste Magazine 07/24/2019
[Exosquad] proved itself to be one of the most somber fully realized animated shows aimed at kids. Go to Full Review Zaki Hasan Zaki's Corner 07/24/2019
Despite the fact that it came wrapped in the bright colors... it managed to serve up some pretty compelling serialized storylines trafficking in themes like genetic engineering, slavery, bigotry, open warfare, and even genocide. Go to Full Review Tim Webber CBR 07/23/2019
Underneath the show's tough-guy aesthetic and neon color palate, the Universal Animation Studios show had complex characters and plots that made the show a cult favorite. Go to Full Review Jef Rouner Houston Press 07/23/2019
When America tries to do anime it usually fails pretty badly, but not in the case of Universal's Exosquad. Go to Full Review Dave Trumbore Collider 07/23/2019
It dealt with its story in a much more mature manner than similar series: characters could die, detailed strategy played a big part in each episode, and the theater of war was more realistically portrayed. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Shawn W. @Weezeremo Dec 10 What a deep intricate story.. this franchise is ripe for a reboot a live action would be very cool.. incredible story that was cut short.. I love it! See more 05/27/2020 I just watched it on the new Peacock TV streaming service. It was a cartoon that was ahead of its time. While other cartoons at the time have storylines that start and finish within an episode or two, the Exo Squad created a storyline that lasted 2 seasons. The show provided cliffhangers and only a few fill-in episodes keeping you engaged in a modern binge watch adventure. The animation itself is not much to look at other than the battle scenes, but the story will keep you captivated to the end.
