Agents J and K return to protect the citizens of Earth from the "scum of the universe" in this animated adaptation of the alien-fighting hit movie "Men in Black," which itself is an adaptation of the comic book series "The Men in Black." Many characters from the film are represented in the series with a number of new characters also introduced along the way.

Mark Harrison Den of Geek 05/30/2019
The characters from the film are mostly present and correct here, but with a couple of key changes. Perhaps anticipating the choices made in the sequel, the series disregards the ending of Men In Black. Go to Full Review Will Wade Common Sense Media 05/30/2019
The contrast between the wacky conflicts, the oblivious bystanders, and the straight-laced agents is comic genius. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Chris M @RT21954632 09/16/2022 I haven't seen the show in 15 years prior to writing this review and I remember every episode. That's how impressive it is. It did something "Men In Black 2" should have done, instead of writing out L just to bring K back, she should be in the lab. The MIB CSI was never seen in the movies. But forensic science is important to any law enforcement team. Now I never read the comics but this feels more like the movies than the comic. Which isn't a bad thing. The Aeon Flux style animation I'm not a huge fan of, but overall... I still love it. See more Read all reviews
