Alienators: Evolution Continues (a.k.a. Evolution: The Animated Series for British audiences) was an animated series that ran from 2001 to 2002 on Fox Kids, based on the 2001 movie Evolution.

Lucy Mai and a Team Pet named Gassie, as well as SCOPES, leader of an army of Starfish Aliens called the Genus. | |

| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_1049848f | comment |
Aliens Speaking English: In the second episode Ira listened to a recording of SCOPES' roars and deduced that SCOPES was in fact speaking in binary. He then translated it into English to reveal some generic megalomaniacal threats. The next time SCOPES appeared he'd become fluent in English. | |

Adaptational Villainy: It was inferred in the film that the aliens were merely wild and freaked out beasts reacting to their new, strange environment. In the series it's made explicit (via SCOPES, once he becomes intelligible) that they're malevolent invaders. | |

Captain Ersatz | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: The Genus are essentially very similar to the Zerg, with a purple wormlike "larval" form that can mutate into a wide array of different forms, function with a Hive Mind and Genetic Memory, and are spawned from "pods" which function similarly to a Zerg Hatchery. They are also able to absorb genetic material from other organisms and mutate instantly. | |

Defrosting Ice Queen: If you thought Allison Reed was a little chilly in the film, Mai takes it even further. Despite this, Ira still seems to be all over her. General Woodman is a potential male example, being a Jerkass Obstructive Bureaucrat who slowly turns into a Jerk with a Heart of Gold. | |

Genetic Memory: The Genus has this as part of a Hive Mind basis with SCOPES acting as a sort of Hive Queen. SCOPES himself is destroyed at the end of every episode he appears in, but strangely new Genus eventually evolve back into him, with the same personality but occasionally different forms (notably, a wasp queen form in "The Swarm", a centaur-like form in "Roman Holiday" and a yeti-like form in the finale trilogy, "Reaper". | |

Horde of Alien Locusts | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_35d4beb4 | comment |
Horde of Alien Locusts: The Genus are sapient, but have no apparent culture or society, with their existence seemingly revolving entirely around propagating, consuming, and destroying (which means that the humans are as fine with wiping the Genus out as the Genus are with wiping them out). They're practically Always Chaotic Evil, with the only exception being Gassie, and that's only because Gassie was grown in a lab and modified on a genetic level to prevent him from being like a true Genus. | |

Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Scopes is constantly going on about how the Genus are a perfectly harmonious super organism, and at one point makes a beeline for Ira's parents while yelling, "You have wiped out my family, now I shall wipe out yours!" after a batch of fellow Genus are taken out in "Ira Knows Best." Considering Scopes is kind of the Hive Queen, this is also a potentially literal case of A Father to His Men. It also counts as Not So Above It All, considering that same episode had Scopes earlier mock humans and their "weak family units." | |

Herbivores Are Friendly: Subverted in "Fire And Ice", where a bunch of fir-tree eating, beaver-like Genus are dismissed by Wayne as being harmless "vegetarian monsters". They still do, however, cause mass destruction, and later regurgitate yeti-like offspring that do attempt to prey on humans. | |

Knight of Cerebus: The drama and stakes were definitely upped with the introduction of General Granger. The Genus relied largely on Zerg Rushes, with a slightly more sophisticated plan here and there, but now they had a human ally whose cunning and resources turned an invasion that a Five-Man Band could reliably fend off into a genuine global threat. | |

Multiple Head Case | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_8f842f45 | comment |
Multiple Head Case: Wayne's mutation allows him to occasionally sprout a second head, which subverts this trope as he gets along perfectly fine with himself. Several of the Genus sprout multiple heads, notably a two-headed dragon creature in "Year of the Genus" and a pack of eight-headed dog-like Genus in "Junkyard Dogs". They don't seem to have any distinct personalities, however. | |

Evolutionary Levels: Played straight with the Genus, which Ira describes as having "Precambrian" invertebrate levels, "Mesozoic" reptilian levels and "Cenozoic" mammalian levels. Best demonstrated in "Junkyard Dogs" where the purple flatworms first mutate into slug-like forms, then into two-headed lizard-like forms, then into four-headed rat-like forms and finally into eight-headed dog-like forms. | |

Weaksauce Weakness: In a homage to The War of the Worlds, the genus are finally destroyed once and for all via a modified strain of the common cold. The irony is that this is because the cold virus beats the aliens at their own game and mutates so quickly that not even 'they' can become immune to it before it destroys them. Selenium from shampoo from the original film, though the aliens develop a resistance to it as time goes on. | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: In "Year of the Genus", Lt.'s uncle in Hong Kong tells of a prophecy of a dragon arising to destroy the city on the coming of the new year. True enough, a Genus monster mutates on the strike of midnight when it's activated by the firecrackers: and it flies, breathes fire, and for all intents and purposes IS a dragon, though Ira refuses to call it as such. In the end, it's revealed that the supersitious-sounding uncle is actually a biochemistry professor at Hong Kong University, further blurring this trope. | |

Family-Friendly Firearms: While missiles and similar munitions looked and acted normal and an attack helicopter was at one point shown firing what appeared to be mundane machine guns, in the last few episodes the military was shown using Frickin' Laser Beams that are As Lethal As They Need To Be. The heroes themselves are instead armed with Abnormal Ammo in the form of selenium mixes — Harry uses a rifle called a "Devolver" (which fires a mix of selenium, fire extinguisher gas and a green "stasis ray", the same ray device used to create Gassy, to "reverse" the Genus' creatures evolution), Ira tends to throw grenades or even petri dishes with the mix, and Wayne can use the water cannon on the firetruck. Lucy instead carries a quarterstaff (intended by Wayne to be a nunchuck-style attachment for his fireaxe) and a discus-like device that can expand into a shield that sprays CO2, while Wayne's aforementioned fireaxe later gains the ability to turn into other various weapons. | |

Flanderization | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: Wayne isn't just a fireman in-training now - for some reason he's an engineering genius who soups up their fire engine on a daily basis, even though by his own admission in the film his knowledge of science extended to doing some chemistry in high school. He's also portrayed as being far more like a child in the series, despite being 17. Harry Block wasn't really interested in sports - he was interested in women's sports because... it was funny. In a Fox Kids show that's completely unthinkable, so he's just a sports nut. He was a funny guy but he was still a qualified teacher, something that the series only brings up twice. Ira seems to be much younger and has become so stupidly into science to the exclusion of almost everything else that it's not even funny. Woodman didn't hate Ira before; he was just an arrogant Jerkass who looked down on him because he had been fired, and for a good reason. Now he hates Ira for being an irresponsible loose cannon who nonetheless managed to receive a medal directly from the President. He gradually stops being an obnoxious hardass, however, something most apparent in "Itching for the Genus." | |

Exact Words | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_e9e35e8f | comment |
Exact Words: In one episode Harry and Ira are in a military jail with Lucy as the guard. General Woodman orders her to not let "those clowns" out. Since Harry and Ira are not "clowns", as in literal circus clowns with funny shoes and red noses, she lets them out after trolling them for a minute. | |

Never Say "Die" | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_f51c5f3c | comment |
Never Say "Die": Genus aren't so much killed as they are "devolved", with defeated Genus shrinking back into starfish-like "Genus Cells" instead of dying outright. | |

Mix-and-Match Critters | |
| Alienators: Evolution Continues / int_f5eda11 | comment |
Mix-and-Match Critters: The Genus are known to create hybridized forms from the DNA of Earth animals, such as in "Roman Holiday" where the Genus absorb DNA from zoo animals, producing forms like a gorilla-elephant hybrid and a leopard-goat hybrid, or in "Ira Knows Best" where they absorb DNA from farm animals and become monstrous hybrids of cow, horse and poultry. | |
