If I watched this show with absolutely no idea of it's premise, I would have thought this show is utter rubbish; I can understand how some of these reviews can be so scathing.

So if you haven't yet seen Axe Cop and are thinking of giving it a go, there's one thing you must know: The synopsis and story lines of the show were conceived by a 5 year old.

Once you know this fact, the craziness and lack of explanation for story development makes sense, and makes it so much more enjoyable. Characters will randomly develop new powers, superheroes will travel to different planets in monster trucks and on the backs of dinosaurs, and people's heads and limbs will be cut off with no clear-cut reason as to why.

But that is how the mind of a kid works; anything that they think is exciting, dangerous or cool will get a mention in the story. If they do need to justify a point to close a storyline, it is the work of magic, or secret powers, or it's from another planet. Don't expect stories to make sense, but it's not supposed to; it's the craziness of the situation that makes the show so great to watch.

It's not for everyone, but if you're a kid at heart, give it a go! You'll think this is fantastic.

Plus some great voice cameos.
