Blaze and the Monster Machines is an Edutainment CGI animated series by Nickelodeon created for its Nick Jr. section, with a focus on teaching the concepts of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). The show focuses on Blaze, an orange/red monster truck, and his young but smart driver, AJ. They live in a world that involves many living monster trucks, including their truck friends Starla, Stripes, Zeg, Darington and Watts. Another friend of theirs is a girl named Gabby, who is a mechanic who can fix anything. Each episode also features Crusher, a sneaky blue truck who cheats in races. Crusher is almost always accompanied by a nice green car named Pickle; the two frequently star in their own seperate subplots as of Season 2. Crusher slowly evolves into a nicer character as the series goes, cheating less and less.The series was created in 2014, being exhibited by Nick since their first season, going two seasons of 20 episodes per season and a third aired in 2017 and later on a fourth in 2018. Also, since 2016, the complete season one is available on Netflix. The official website is here, as well has its own article in The Other Wiki. Also this show has its own wiki. It also got its own YouTube channel in January 2020.

comment
Morphic Resonance: Whenever Blaze undergoes his Once per Episode Transformation Sequence, he usually builds parts to the featured vehicle on top of his current form, or if his whole body transforms, he keeps his original face. The same goes for his friends whenever they transform with him. In the "Robot Riders" episodes, whenever the Monster Machines become robots, they retain their original framework and color schemes, with their tires placed on their wrists and ankles. The symbols they’re associated with also appear either as patterns on their chest and limbs or as pictures on their belt buckles.

Tempting Fate: Usually whenever Crusher initiates a cheat, he bets Blaze will never get past. He does get past indeed. Right when Blaze claims, "Nothing Can Stop Us Now!", an obstacle or cheat from Crusher stops him minutes later.

comment
Artistic License – Biology: The b-plot of "Spark Bug" has Crusher trying to outsmart a caterpillar, who is very strong and can lift anything much bigger than him, even Crusher himself. While caterpillars are indeed strong, they cannot lift heavy things like Crusher in real life. One episode has Blaze and Pickle get chased by electric-zapping electric eels. Electric eels like the ones they encounter do not shoot electricity from their tails like they do on the show; they give electric shock stings when making physical contact with them.

Never Trust a Trailer: The promos for "Blazing Amazing Stories" make it seem like a Superhero Episode since it plays up the superhero scenes in honor of Nick Jr's "Mighty Heroes Month" for April 2020. It was only the last third of the episode, and it's really a Storybook Episode instead. The trailer for "The Treat Thief" avoids any mention of it being an "Officer Blaze" episode.

Forgotten Phlebotinum: In "Light Riders", the Monster Machines sans Crusher and Pickle were given speed lights so they can see in the dark, but after that episode, they never used them again (aside from two very brief uses in "Catch That Cake!" and "The Bouncing Bull Racetrack"). In "Raceday Rescue", Watts is shown to use her electric tires to bring electricity to various objects to make them power up. In later episodes though, she's never used such again.

Unknown Rival: In some episodes, Blaze discovers the obstacle Crusher sent out, but never realizes it was Crusher's fault. Exaggerated in "Race to Eagle Rock" when Crusher turns the sign the other way, and the Monster Machines immediately follow it unaware they're going in the wrong direction.

comment
No Flow in CGI: AJ's hair is short and poofy, and is always constantly covered up by his helmet, while Gabby constantly wears her hair in a small ponytail and never takes it out. Their hair almost never moves naturally and sometimes stretches out in one piece, though after the Art Evolution their hair seems to flow more freely, especially with Gabby's hair whose ends are now sharp instead of rounded and bounce with her head when it moves.

Vocal Evolution: Blaze's voice sounded a bit old and slightly scratchy in Season 1 (especially the early episodes), but in Season 2, it became more smooth sounding with no scratch at all. It's even more noticeable after the Art Evolution. Pickle's voice in the early episodes of Season 1 is a bit deeper than how he sounds now. AJ's voice got deeper by the end of Season 1 as his voice actor aged. It became higher and more African sounding in Season 2, which deepened as well at the end of the third season. Come the fourth, it's higher pitched again and slightly more African. Angelina Wahler's voice for Gabby become more squeaky and higher pitched as the series progressed.

Evolving Credits: Late into Season 3, the title sequence was updated; the jungle that Blaze watches Stripes hop through is bigger and realistic, the canyon he jumps through Starla's lasso at is moved to the badlands, he and Darington race in a forest instead of a desert, and trees appear behind he and Zeg as they smash through the stacks of tires. Finally, Watts races alongside him in the Monster Dome, with Gabby driving her.

Hammerspace: Happens quite often. Crusher’s chassis bag seems to be bottomless and holds an infinite number of parts to make his cheating gadgets. Other characters can also produce stuff from out of nowhere, such as the wedge Blaze uses throughout "Zeg and the Egg", a jar of pickles used by Pickle to turn off Auto-Vac in "Pickle Power", and Starla getting out her lasso when she uses such.

He's the Asshole Victim of every bad thing can happen in the series, which usually are his own invents or treats against Blaze and his friends, and different from his minion Pickle, he doesn't regret of his actions nor try to help his rival when something bigger occurs that affect both.

Strictly Formula: Every episode follows this format — Blaze and AJ do something which sets up the plot. They get a mission and set out on their adventure, where they have three major problems to solve before the mission is complete. The adventure also has special songs and elements scattered throughout; see Once per Episode above for detail.

Ambiguous Gender
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_4510b368
comment
Ambiguous Gender: The three baby t-rexes in "T-Rex Trouble" had rather ambiguous-looking faces. None of them were referred to with gender-related pronouns, which led to confusion over what their genders are. The only exception is Chompy, the red t-rex, who was called female by Blaze. While the monkey and elephant that help AJ in "AJ to the Rescue" were male, the firefly was never referred to with gender-related pronouns, and even had ambiguous-sounding vocal effects. Out of all the animals in the Great Forest in "The Flying Lion", only the panda was referred to with gender-related pronouns as male.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: Season 1 didn't have a six-episode miniseries like later seasons do. Also in that season, Blaze's viewer greetings were mostly "Hey, I'm Blaze and this is AJ" or variations thereof. Season 1 is also the only season where Blaze used Blazing Speed exclusively alone. Later seasons have him sometimes share said power with his friends so they can use the speed with him. Blaze's transformations in Season 1 were mostly variations of the prompt "To make the [name of part], say [name of part]." By the time Season 2 came, he spoke this way almost exclusively. Also, two early episodes featured four parts instead of the usual three or sometimes two, and one had a transformation where two parts were installed one after the other. Season 1 features a handful of episodes where Blaze activates his Once per Episode Blazing Speed near the beginning of his mission, and its earliest occurrence to date was in "The Driving Force" when he uses such to beat Crusher. In the early episodes, Blaze usually describes the STEM concept; as the series progressed, this mostly gets carried over to AJ. Crusher's subplot only showed up twice in the first season, whereas it became more common since the second. The animation in Season 1 is much more exaggerated and dulled than in later seasons, as it was the only season produced by Nerd Corps Entertainment before it was bought by DHX Media. When the show began, AJ would draw digital pictures in mid-air to either describe the STEM concept or present whatever machine Blaze is going to turn into for the episode. As the show progressed, he mostly relies on projecting a digital diagram with his watch or Blaze's panel screen for such (especially the former), leaving his skywriting to become forgotten all together. It's especially noticeable after the Art Evolution. Blaze no longer told the viewer to say "Let's Blaze!" with him in after early Season 1, instead immediately saying it (with the viewer) upon activating.

Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat: Crusher, almost all the time. Whenever there's a race, Crusher cheats, regardless of whether he needs to or not. Taken to extremes in "Knight Riders", when Crusher is beating Blaze in a straight race and stops within sight of the finish line to try and slow Blaze down - Blaze being further away from Crusher than Crusher was from the finish line!

Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs: At the end of "Rocket Ski Rescue", as Grammy takes Blaze and Crusher out to get ice cream as a celebration for saving Crusher from the rocket skis, three of the flavors Crusher thinks of getting are chocolate, cherry, and chocolate cherry. In "Toucan Do It!", when Crusher encounters a zebra selling types of grass, Pickle points out they’re selling green grass, brown grass, and greenish-brown grass. In "The Pickle Family Campout" when Blaze and Pickle had to save Pickle’s grandpa, the rocks they had to swing to were the biggest rock, the rock with no cracks, and the biggest rock with no cracks.

Later-Installment Weirdness
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_7b21ef92
comment
Later-Installment Weirdness: Since mid-Season 3's Art Evolution, Blaze and AJ don't greet the viewer at the start as much as they did in earlier seasons. Also, AJ almost never uses his skywriting technique to make diagrams of the problem, instead relying on either his watch or Blaze's communicator screen. AJ has also become the usual describer of the STEM concept when Blaze was in earlier seasons, and usages of his Visor View have become rarer, instead simply showing where they need to find something with no technology needed. The recurring "traveling" songs have also become less and less, instead replacing them with a unique number exclusive to the episode. Season 5 also began introducing STEM concepts that were already taught earlier in the series, sometimes remixing their songs.

Animation Bump
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_7ea2a915
comment
Animation Bump: Animation has improved over the course of the show, and seems to get better with each new season. Notice in Season 2 Blaze's mouth is smaller, less stretched and curvy, like how it looks in an anime show, and his paintwork is a more luminous red rather than its original dull red-orange. His transformations also improve in detail over each season. Come the mid-season 3 Art Evolution, the show's art style has become more realistic, specifically the jungles and forests have improved foliage, the streets have visible asphalt, and buildings are no longer a 2D image in distant shots. The trucks now have visible wear and tear on their tires and are animated with ray tracing so they reflect their environments. And now that Season 4 has come, the show has started using splitscreens and rather trippy backdrops in music segments. Season 5 takes this even further by having the water realistically push up against Blaze when he becomes an icebreaker ship and splash much more fluidly, and having a more realistic atmosphere for the first time in "Abra-Ka-Pickle!" by giving a purplish hue on the sky for a late afternoon and the trees becoming multicolored to show it's Fall. Even the fire that ignites from Blaze's boosters before he activates his Blazing Speed has gotten a whole lot more realistic; compare it in Season 1 when it was just a simple ring to the Art Evolution where it now extends outward like a real fire torch and even pulses. Blaze's transformations are much more detailed by having the camera actually zoom to the part that is going to be constructed, something the early animation had no courage to animate.

Didn't Think This Through
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_8d0785d5
comment
Didn't Think This Through: Usually whenever Crusher sends out obstacles and inventions to stop Blaze from following him, he forgets there are flaws in his plans: either Blaze will use the STEM concept of the episode to get around it, or he will transform into a different machine or tool to get past. For example, when he blocked the track with pipes in "Axle City Grand Prix", he didn't know one of the pipes in each pile were large enough for Blaze to drive through them. The Power Tires, indeed. No matter what obstacle Crusher sets up, Blaze uses the tires' various settings to get right around them. Especially when he breaks a bridge to Lava Island and Crusher uses Lava Power to drive right through the lava. In "Race to the Golden Gift", Crusher blocks a tunnel with rocks to prevent Blaze and Watts from coming through; however, he forgot there was another tunnel nearby, which Gabby notices. In "The Great Pizza Race", Crusher breaks down the ladder to the monkeys' treehouse, but didn't realize there was a pulley nearby which Blaze and AJ used in its place.

Foreshadowing: Though not storywise, there is a way to tell if the third scene of Crusher's subplot will be the final scene of the episode. Usually a scene appears after the "Setting Off" Song or after a major problem has been solved. If the first or either the first two is skipped over, than there's no doubt the subplot will serve as the closing scene.

Leitmotif: Each Monster Machine has a different type of background music associated with them. Blaze has several rock themes, with a special one in particular that plays whenever he uses his Blazing Speed. Stripes has a jungle safari theme. Starla has a country/western theme. Darington has a heavy metal theme with wailing guitars. Zeg has a prehistoric theme. Crusher has a mischievous antagonistic theme in a minor key. Pickle has a theme similar to Crusher’s, but in a more peppy major key.

Magic Countdown: Sometimes, Blaze will warn the viewer he has only a certain amount of time to do something. However, the time between when he says that and when the time runs out is longer than said time limit in real time. Also, he doesn't count down by actual real-time seconds.

Rule of Three
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_a6cda066
comment
Rule of Three: This show takes the trope up to eleven, using elements of this in every single episode. In each episode, there are usually three major problems that Blaze and AJ have to solve. Some problems often require three portions to be solved, or they get three attempts to solve such; they often fail on the first two tries, but succeed on the third. Crusher and Pickle's occasional subplots show up three times in an episode, with the third usually being the episode's final scene all together. Blaze's transformations usually require three parts. In any episode that features a Fetch Quest, there are three items to collect or save, or in the case of groups, three groups of three, making nine all together.

Save the Villain: There are a few times throughout the show where Blaze had to save Crusher, like in “Runaway Rocket� when he and Pickle got stuck on the malfunctioning rocket from a carnival game, “Rocket Ski Rescue� when the rocket skis he made became uncontrollable and carried him all over town, and in “Pickle Power� when he gets stuck inside the Auto-Vac he invented which sucks up everything in its path.

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_acf33d00
comment
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Often, the obstacles and cheats Crusher sends out to stop Blaze lead to Blaze coming up with another way to get past, either using a skill based on the STEM concept of the episode, or a special ability based on what he transforms into. For example, in "The Team Truck Challenge", Crusher knocks down a rock wall to block a mine entrance; this gives Blaze the chance to teach the mass concept and Pickle uses such to knock the rocks away. In "Race to Eagle Rock", Crusher saws the track causing the Monster Machines to flow down a river until they finally stop just before a waterfall, but once there they see the racetrack at the bottom; in other words, Crusher only gave them another way to catch up. In "Ready, Set, Roar!", the cheats Crusher sends out inspire Blaze and Stripes to use a great cat ability based on the obstacle they encounter. All of the obstacles Crusher sends out in "Power Tires" are what give Blaze the chance to use one of the powers that his Power Tires have to get past them.

Expect Blaze or AJ to say something like "Whoo-hoo!" or "Yeah-heh!" when driving; also expect them to add "Right!" or "Yeah!" when they respond to the viewer's answer. Also Crusher, always talking that "the winner should be me, me, me!" as well his "yuck!" everytime he goes dirty on something. Starla's "Yee-haw!" as the cowgirl she is. And how to forget the "Daringtooooooooooon!" Watts has “Electric Charge!� Gasquatch has "IIII LOOOOVE MUUUUUD!"

I Ate WHAT?!: Happens to Crusher in "The Hundred Mile Race" as a Running Gag — Pickle is going to give him a snack but presents various everyday objects instead, then presents a snack as the third option but it turns out it has something that cannot be eaten in it. It happens to him again in "Light Riders" when the "foods" he finds in the dark turn out to be gross things, and in "The Bouncing Bull Racetrack" as he tries to steal a carrot from a chicken’s garden, only for him to switch it with something else as he is about to eat; this also happens to him during the Jungleball episode where he insists he'd never eat animal foods and when he gleefully snatches up what looks like normal food, it turns out to be made of/with whatever he was refusing, to his disgust.

Demoted to Extra: Gabby, Stripes, Starla, Darington and Zeg have gotten less and less focus over the course of the show, appearing fewer times per season. Blaze alone becomes this in "Dragon Island Duel" and "AJ to the Rescue", especially the latter, due to AJ taking his spotlight for the episodes. AJ alone becomes this in "Raceday Rescue" when he is taken away by Crusher's bubble along with Gabby. He also doesn't speak to the viewer throughout the episode, with his role going to Watts. Blaze and AJ together become this in the Season 7 premiere "Sparkle's Big Rescue" when they are taken away by Crusher's Bye-Bye Copter, with their combined roles going to Blaze's younger sister Sparkle.

Aerith and Bob: Played with: We have Starla, which is a unique name that can be commonly used. It refers to her cowgirl status. We have the main character Blaze, an uncommon boy's name. It means "a bright flame of fire" or "to shoot steadily", which fits given that he's the "fire" that "lights up" the show. We have Stripes and Pickle, which are both names for a pattern and a food respectively. We have Crusher whose name, ironically, implies that he crushes the competition. He doesn't. We have Darington, whose name is a mix of "daring" and the suffix "-ton". And then there's Zeg, the dinosaur truck. We also have Watts, which are derived from electrical circuit unit.

Shout-Out
 Blaze and the Monster Machines / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Starla frequently says "Bust my bumpers!", which is a play on the famous "Bust my buffers!" from Thomas & Friends. In "Truck Rangers", the volume knob on Blaze’s amplifier goes up to 11, a reference to the special speakers doing the same thing in This is Spın̈al Tap. The "Robot Riders" miniseries has Blaze and his friends turning into monster truck-robot hybrids akin to the Autobots from Transformers.

Boring Return Journey: Happens quite often. After Blaze and AJ encounter several obstacles to finish their journey, they just have to drive back the way they came. Fortunately, Blaze often subverts this trope with his Blazing Speed.

Musical World Hypotheses: Usually the All In Their Head type. The majority of the songs are performed offscreen by Blaze and AJ during a montage, whenever they start their adventure or are demonstrating the topic the episode is focusing on. However, there are rare occurrences where characters sing onscreen as well; the songs "Welcome to Animal Island" and "The Pickle Family Song", for instance, are Alternate Universe, while "Sound Wave Showdown" is Diegetic.

Non-Mammalian Hair: So far, the only non-animal vehicles that have a full head of hair are Joe (one of Blaze's fan-trucks), Speedrick (a race car), and Pickle’s four sisters and grandpa. Crusher briefly gains some at the end of his subplot in "Robot Power" after eating hairy flavored ice cream. And Gasquatch has a full pelt of 'hair'.

comment
Animesque: Although the animation is CGI, it heavily borrows different anime elements: The trucks' faces (especially those of Blaze, his sister Sparkle, and their parents) feature large eyes very reminiscent in style to standard anime eyes. The trucks' mouths tend to expand rather wide when shouting or grit rather exaggeratedly when angry or straining. The "Robot Riders" miniseries takes inspiration from the Mecha genre popular in Japan. As of the show's Art Evolution introduced in the "Wild Wheels" miniseries of Season 3, and into Season 4-onward, speed lines can sometimes be used. It gets much more expressive and detailed as the series progresses.

Once per Episode: Since the show is formulaic, be sure to expect at least one of the following to be consistent: the scientific topic that becomes the episode’s main theme; Blaze and AJ encountering obstacles which usually take three attempts to solve; the various episodic songs which normally occur twice throughout the plot (one for setting off, the other for the scientific concept); Blaze turning into something relating to the topic with the viewer’s help; Crusher stopping Blaze with one of his handmade inventions; the humorous subplots involving Crusher and Pickle with their own dilemmas; and last but not least, Blaze’s Blazing Speed power which he uses to do something super fast, usually to finish the job. Starting in Season 4, every episode now features a Disney Acid Sequence during a song.

Go-Karting with Bowser: There are a few episodes in which Crusher has to team (or depends on) Blaze, like in "The Mystery Bandit" episode when Crusher asks the help of Blaze to get his metallic toy truck back. Darington also invites Crusher to his birthday party and Crusher is quite pleased with this (though admittedly this was at least partly because he would be able to eat some of the cake he had been chasing all episode).

comment
Special Edition Title: The special-themed episodes (Race Car Adventures, Wild Wheels and Robot Riders) have their own special title sequences and title cards. There are also a few occasions where someone other than Blaze would read the Episode Title Card at the beginning; in "Darington to the Moon!" and "The Chicken Circus!", Darington reads it; in "Treasure Track", Pegwheel reads it, and in "The Pickle Family Campout", Pickle and his family read it. The last of these have the letters green instead of the usual orange.

Exotic Eye Designs

comment
Exotic Eye Designs: For the first three seasons, AJ and Gabby had unusually pentagonal-shaped catchlights on their eyes. Averted as of the mid-Season 3 Art Evolution, where the catchlights became traditionally spherical.

Talking Is a Free Action: Happens a lot. Crusher is almost at the finish? Zeg is about to crash into the bakery on bouncy tires? The rocket Crusher and Pickle are on is nearing a garbage dump? No problem, Blaze and AJ take their time to ask the viewer for help and do it slowly.

Once a Season: Starting in Season 2, there's been a special six-episode themed miniseries every season. There has also been an episode airing on Memorial Day every season, with each marking the start of the season's themed miniseries (except the first).
