Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Originally a segment on Nickelodeon's live-action TV series All That and then on its Animated Anthology KaBlam!, Action League NOW! centered on the crudely stop-motion-animated adventures of four superhero toys, who were forever going off on missions that were either ill-defined or just plain weird, and nearly always involved trying to stop the corrupt "The Mayor" in some zany scheme of his. What made it distinct was that the toys were all shown in their "natural state" of being 6 inches tall in a human world, seldom even moving on their own (unless being thrown or the like, which is why the show was sometimes described as being filmed in "Chuck-imation"; traditional stop-motion was used when the characters were required to do something complex).Our heroes were The Flesh (a Conan the Adventurer doll modified to replace his hips/loincloth with a Ken type bulge who was described as "super-strong and super-naked"), Thunder Girl (a superheroine with a [Sindy] doll head who just flew around and complained about how stupid her teammates were, even though she could be just as clueless as the others), Stinky Diver (a loose cannon with a thick British accent and perpetual body odor, made from a G.I. Joe Shipwreck action figure) and Melt-Man (a not-too-bright melted G.I. Joe-like figurine "with the power to... melt!"). They tended to suffer horrible injuries. They were accompanied by The Chief, who would often shout "BLAST IT!" and berate the team for their screw-ups; Justice the Dog, and Bill the Lab Guy, who spoke in monotone, and often made strange inventions and devices to help the League, though these would often be stolen or otherwise used to harm the League.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })As an anthology segment, the series lasted from 1996 to 2000. Their spin-off show consisted of combinations of their old shorts into longer episodes. | |

Acquired Situational Narcissism | |
| Action League NOW! / int_4c961994 | comment |
Acquired Situational Narcissism: Thundergirl in "A Star is Torn". Just the offer of starring in a movie makes her don shades, bark orders and spend half of her time looking at herself in the mirror. Stinky and the Flesh are all too happy to ride on her coattails and act as yes-men. | |

Animation Bump: Rock-a-Big Baby (the theatrical short that played in front of Good Burger) had considerably more stop-motion animated scenes than the rest of the series.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Added Alliterative Appeal: A part of the Lemony Narrator's speech. The Chief also likes to incorporate these into his similes. | |
