Street Sharks (1994-1997) was an animated series about four teenage boys whose father is kidnapped by a rival scientist named Dr. Paradigm and transformed into a monster. When they attempt to rescue him, Dr. Paradigm transforms them into anthropomorphic sharks. In their first battle, Dr. Paradigm is injected with the same chemical mixture intended for the sharks' kooky-but-genius sidekick, giving him the ability to transform into a piranha monster when angry. It causes severe drama, because the sharks are then painted as the villains and the villain made the city hero, whose dream it is to mutate everyone into fish people.Think Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles minus the actual ninjas and the turtles replaced by sharks.Discotek Media (yup, the same one that licences retro anime) has licensed this show for an SD Blu-Ray release, which came out in April 2022. So jawsome.The Street Sharks are: Ripster (former name John): The Leader; a great white shark. Streex (former name Bobby): the second in command; a tiger shark. Jab (former name Clint): the mechanics expert; a hammerhead shark. Slammu (former name Coop): The strongest and youngest of the sharks; a whale shark.Their allies: Lena and Bends: their friends from college. Moby Lick (former name Jets Taylor): a friend from high school who was turned into an orca whale. Rox (former name Melvin Kresnik): a rock musician who was turned into a mako shark after eating popcorn spiked with mutagen. Mantaman (former name Dr. Terrence Morton): a scientist and astronaut who was turned into a manta ray (with some alien DNA thrown in as well). El Swordo: A circus performer who was fused with his pet marlin Spike.

Artistic License – Biology: There's a reason why they are called whale sharks. Whale Sharks are shrimp-eating, filter-feeding, peaceful creatures that do not have giant sharp teeth and are not dangerous to anything larger than a tiny fish. Although the show at least remembered that they're gentle giants. The stereotype that sharks can eat anything is taken to its logical extreme, with the Street Sharks being capable of chowing down on just about anything. "Fresh Water Sharks" has an incident where the Sharks are confronted by tear gas and are unaffected, with Ripster claiming it was "nothing our shark gills won't filter out". Gills don't work that way — they filter oxygen from water and are just as vulnerable to toxins and irritants as our lungs are. The sharks ought to have been screaming in pain as their gills were burned out by the gas.

Unreliable Illustrator: A Dic Entertainment series, so it's to be expected. More evident after the first three episodes thanks to the use of multiple animation studios working on the show. "Shark Source" being a huge offender with it's innumerable moments of choppy or even unfinished animation and layering issues.

Disappeared Dad
 Street Sharks / int_28cd01ca
comment
Disappeared Dad: After showing up once in the pilot and being turned into a monster offscreen, the Sharks never meet their dad in person again. His absence is the main concern of the heroes and finding him is usually their first priority. He sometimes appears in shadows, or as a 'just missed' character, making him a major plot element nevertheless. The season 1 finale "Shark Source" sees him confronting and speaking to Dr. Piranoid, tearing apart Piranoid's armor and sending a piece of it to his sons as a trophy afterward, but they don't get to see him in person.

Power-Upgrading Deformation: The gene splicing everyone goes through turns them into grotesque anthropomorphic animals. Subverted with Maximillian Greco and his dogs Zeus and Apollo though, the former of whom regains his youth and all three of whom are considerably bulked up by the gene-slamming process, but could be otherwise be mistaken for normal beings, unlike everyone else who was gene-slammed.

Hero with Bad Publicity: Paradigm could blame the Sharks for anything and the citizens of Fission City would accept without question. It's taken to such extremes that one of their friends has to explicitly tell the police that, if they really were guilty of one of the crimes they were accused of, they'd have to be in two places at once.

Poorly-Disguised Pilot: The last EIGHT episodes are taken up by a long one, introducing the heroic Dino Vengers and the evil Raptors, dinosaur-like aliens from outer space. The opening sequence was actually changed to call the show Dino Vengers Featuring Street Sharks. One year later, the "Dino Vengers", having been heavily re-tooled to cut all continuity with this cartoon, got their own show in the form of Extreme Dinosaurs.

Horrifying Hero: Granted, the Street Sharks are actually pretty nice, but they still look like oversized, very threatening sharks on legs who can eat steel and concrete, are superhumanly strong, and have some anger issues, so they tend to scare everyone in sight. Really, it's not that surprising Paradigm has so little trouble convincing people they are a threat.

Obviously Evil: Dr. Paradigm. True, giant shark-men aren't exactly going to inspire confidence, but does that really mean that you should trust a man who has an eyepatch and an indeterminately European accent who goes around town in a giant, heavily armed diving suit? Of course he'd still set off villain alarms in civilian garb. Paradigm tries to subvert it by claiming that the suit's main purpose is a life-support system, after a run-in with the Street Sharks.

Cut Lex Luthor a Check: It's subtly shown that, if it weren't for his obsession with using it to reshape humanity into his genetically-altered slave race, Paradigm's genetic tinkering technology could change the world. Most obviously, in season 3's "The Sharkfather", an aged crimeboss named Maximillian Greco spots Piranoid's Seaviates and follows them to Paradigm's lab, blackmailing him into using his technology to "fix" the withered, aging-crippled former gangster. Paradigm splices him with a subtle mix of desert tortoise and rhino genes, causing Greco to become a physical powerhouse who looks half his former age and without turning him into an obvious mutant.

comment
Destructive Saviour: It's not uncommon for the Street Sharks to cause some severe property damage whenever they save the day, such as destroying the eponymous streets by swimming through the solid concrete. On the other hand, when they level buildings and such, it's usually in an effort to prevent worse disasters, like sinking a parking garage to avoid flooding the city with nuclear fallout.

Evil vs. Evil: In "Card Sharks", Paradigm seeks revenge on Maximillian Greco, trying to ruin his casino in retaliation for Greco basically blackmailing him into gene-slamming Greco and his dogs.

Trademark Favorite Food: Hot dogs and hamburgers for the Street Sharks, though they're capable of eating almost anything. In a reference to the Ninja Turtles, though, they all hate pizza.

Take That!
 Street Sharks / int_b53077b3
comment
Take That!: Quite blatant one to the Jurassic Park toys, on the back of the "Big Hand Puppet" toy box. There was a small picture of one of said puppets, smacking one of the T-Rex toys from said rival toyline. Surprisingly, no lawsuit was filed. Also a blatant shot at the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles when, during an early episode, the four were disgusted at the idea of eating pizza. This also might count as Biting-the-Hand Humor, as Surge Licensing, the company that licensed the Street Sharks property, was also behind the licensing of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Shout-Out: Several of the titles are puns on various other works. When Slammu is mind-controlled by Doctor Paradigm in "Shark Quest", his screams are mixed with the shark roar from Jaws: The Revenge.

And Your Reward Is Edible
 Street Sharks / int_d4db580f
comment
And Your Reward Is Edible: In the episode "First Shark", the Sharks save President David Horne from being gene-washed by Dr. Paradigm. Due to a combination of factors (including Paradigm having previously gene-washed the vice-president and another member of the White House staff, and making it look like the Sharks were the ones to try and gene-wash President Horne), he can't publicly show them any sympathy or give them the reward he really wants without getting kicked out of office (and apologizes for not being able to do so). So instead, he brings them a briefcase full of Humongo-Burgers, which they very much appreciate.

They Would Cut You Up: Justified, since the pilot has a part where all four are re-captured, and Slammu is very narrowly forced to undergo "exploratory surgery". He's saved, and the others are tempted to try the same surgery on the doctor.

Exact Words: Paradigm's "Genesis Satellite" was intended to turn the entire population of Earth into gene-slammed mutants. He told the public that it would "usher in a whole new era for mankind" and that the human race would never suffer from disease, or "any other human frailties."
