Tales of Arcadia: 3Below has what I would call the typical look of most CG animated shows these days. It seems to be working for the kids, though. It's not that I don't like it, I just long for the days of 2D animation. The first glimpse video features the new alien heroes flying through space and then landing on a planet and transforming into human forms. That's about all we get - there's no plot shared or anything.
