RebootReboot is a high-tech action show about people living inside computers. It's one of the first tv shows to be computer-generated. The main characters vary, because most of the populace in the system where the heroes live are droids, human-like robots. The most common characters are Fong, Bob, Dot Matrix, Enzo Matrix, and their dog Frisket. The bad guys are Hexadecimal, her pet Scuzzy, Megabyte and his robot henchman's, Hack and Slash. Fong is the leader of the system, and he tells them what needs to be done, and advises Bob and Dot what to do about it. Bob is what they call a defender. He protects the system from viruses like Hexadecimal and Megabyte. In their world games come and go in the system, and if the defender loses the game, it starts tearing apart the system. The more they lose, the more the system becomes a ruin. As a guardian, Bob is required to play the games. Dot is one of the leaders of Mainframe, the system which they inhabit. She sets of the scramble alarm to their squadrons, alarming them when the viruses invade, or other disasters. Enzo is an enthusiastic boy who really wants to help Bob, and be like him. Frisket is Enzo's pet, and he does everything he can to help Enzo. He has an iron hard bite, and not much patience when it comes to viruses. Hexadecimal is an insane virus, who has a certain fondness for Bob. Her face is always hidden behind a mask, which changes by her mood. She usually has a demented smile, or a sad frown that next becomes a mask with jagged teeth and a pointed tongue flicking out. Scuzzy is a black robot that has a little screen on its head, its only form of communication. Megabyte is the sane one who hates Bob and yearns for domination. He always tries to perfect plans to destroy Mainframe. Hack and Slash are two robots that have small soft spots, and they like having Bob around so that they have something to do. Most of the episodes vary, but lately they've been doing a line of continued shows, a mini-series in the series. In the beginning of it, Megabyte teamed up with Dot and Fong to close up a tear leading to the Web. The Web creatures came through, and started attacking, and once the creatures were defeated Megabyte and Hexadecimal start to close the tear. But before they do that, they trap Bob and launch him into the Web, then close the tear and lock him out of Mainframe. A little while later a game comes, and Enzo, Frisket, and their friend Andrea. They download and become game sprites. They travel from system to system trying to find mainframe.
