The Adventures of T-Rex	comment	The Adventures of T-Rex was a 1992 animated series set in Rep City, which looked a whole lot like 1940's Los Angeles, but populated by anthropomorphic dinosaurs.By day, the Brothers are an entertainment troupe playing to the crowds at the Dragon Company night club. When crime strikes, they become a quintet of armor-clad heroes collectively named T-Rex. Bruno, Bernie, Bubba, Buck and Bugsy fight crime with body-part-specific powers (Super-Strength in the arms, legs, tail, and jaws, respectively, while Bugsy had a telekinetic gaze).Their opposition usually comes from Boss Graves, who ran a rival club called the Plantation, but secretly also the head of an organized crime group called the Corporation.It ran for 52 episodes, but has never seen a modern release.

The Adventures of T-Rex / int_1206dd74	comment	Victory Is Boring: Episode "Crime Takes a Holiday" has Myrna and Flo teaming up to secretly bring down the Corporation. After all its members are in jail, the brothers just spend all their time sitting around their apartment eating chips, not knowing what to do with themselves without crime to fight.

The Adventures of T-Rex / int_34f590c9	comment	Off on a Technicality: Episode "Crime Takes a Holiday" had every member of the Corporation thrown in jail because Flo was secretly feeding information to Myrna. By the end of the episode it's said by the mayor they were all released on a technicality. It's said with relief, because everybody from the mayor to the chief of police to the show's main radio commentator were on the verge of losing their jobs with a crime-free city.
