    The plot of this story is actually very intricate.
    (Spoiler if you haven't watched this show from 2012)
    Sometime in the middle of the show it's revealed that Donald has a younger brother, Douglas, who is actually the one who's responsible for Adam Bree and Chase. Essentially Davenport was a joint project that specialized in bionics that would allow robots to do jobs humans couldn't, but Douglas took the technology and implemented it into the genetically engineered kids and was planning to sell them. Donald in response to this took Adam Bree and Chase and decided to train them to help people, and keeps them in the basement in hopes that Douglas won't find them.
    There's also another plot where a guy named "Victor Crane" who Douglas was definitely dating at some point but it's 2012 so they're too afraid to admit it genetically engineers a thousand more bionic kids to try and enslave the world. And he comes back at the end of the series with another guy and tried to put bionics into Donalds space colonists after blowing up the world with a nuke.

      @itsanoformedawg yeah, like the whole reason they were kept secret was that they were special, and now theres like a hundred of them with the same powers? Hell i didnt mind leo getting the bionic arm cause they gave a excuse, his orginal arm was fucking destroyed and that whole thing could have lead to some really touching and dark moments, where leo had to learn to accept his new arm and the fact that he still has phantom pains and sometimes he wakes up at night screaming, it could have led to a moral of "just cause someone has something missing doesnt mean they arnt human" it really could have humanized multiple charatere, the idea of leo loosing the orginal arm could have been a touchy subject for a good portion of the season because well that just happened, instead of a well thought out family dynamics of the kids and parents having to help leo readjust to life with a new appendage and all the problems that comes with said new appendage like having to control it, figure out the weakness, get him used to it, and other stuff im not knowlagble of cause i thankfully still have all my limbs, we instead got a whole lotta charaters that make the orginal cast seem obsolete now sense they do what they but much greater numbers, we got that instead of a season which could have been all about helping leo with trauma because most other times if i remember correctly he didnt really get any actual damage done to him, the one time he did? He lost his arm, which could be to Daven Port and his brother helping the kids realize leo is in a state of pure vulnerability, and he's gonna need time to readjust, also the bully character? It would have been great to see a new bully try to bully leo about the arm and him to actually defend him and him revealing that whilst he's a bully he's a bully with standards and he dont bully people about disabilities, hell he could have become a sorta frenemy like bufford or something, a person who'll rag on leo and co but only he and his posse can do that anyone else gets a beating

      @theenderdestruction2362 it seemed so weird to make all of these people special, their identities out there, best part of the show for me was perry when she found out and everything she did prior to that, she's freaking hilarious, but now we focus on all of these new characters do8ng stuff. It worked best when things were more grounded and centered. My favorite eps by far were the future Leo stories, and those season ending episodes as well. As some point they'd raise the bar too high, and honestly i think show should've just ended entirely no spin off. Keep it ambiguous and move on.

      I really liked it. A lot of shows are like this though when you rewatch them, but that's because they're made for kids. Kids don't usually notice the weird things, and if it wasn't at least a little bit off, it might not have appealed to younger senses of humor as much. Davenport's explanation of the kids could have used some work, as well as they could have also had real rooms and stuff in the basement from the start.

      It’s funny because in middle school (mid 2010s) Lab Rats was way more popular with girls than boys lol. I’m a girl and loved the show back then. Also in elementary school I loved Disney channel but in middle school I loved Disney XD, I thought Disney Channel was for kids and Disney XD for tweens and younger teens, sorta like Disney’s version of teen Nick or something. Idk, I think most gendered things are useless and just do what I want

Yes,it can be goofy at times,but then there are some AMAZING episodes like the one where the whole crew went on against a bionic army or the one where they had to face Marcus. Really amazing show imo and i really recommend you watch the Bionic Army episode as well as the Marcus episode,just so you can see how the show progressed

They both kept said kids locked up, isolated from the rest of the world for a big part of their lives to train them. Only Donald Davenport keeps the kids in his basement instead of a big lab-building, doesn’t have as many guards and other staff, actually bothers to give them names and is (at least not that we’ve seen) as sadistic.

    Genuine thanks for making me remember Lab Rats existed (I once stumbled upon Elite Force in Netflix and watched it for a while, but it's been years since then and I never even knew that it was only a spin-off to begin with). Today I finished binge-watching all the 4 seasons, along with Mighty Med's 2 and Lab Rats: Elite Force again, and I had a BLAST! I laughed more than I thought I would and some of its emotional moments really stung (for a Disney show).
    Tbh, I think Lab Rats and Mighty Med (but especially the first one) just became some of my favorite sitcoms ever. They also made me aware of all these other Disney shows that I watched so long ago that I don't really remember them anymore, so I think I'm boutta go on a sitcom-frenzy for the next few weeks...

    I will admit, while not as perfect as kid me remembers it, this show was still hella funny and it does get better as it goes along.
    In the last two seasons, there are these two characters who become a lot more prominent (I'm not gonna name them cause spoilers) but they become some of my favourites in the entire show, they're so goddamn hilarious.
    The show also does get a bit more mature, In the final season, they're on an island and they need to learn things like responsibility and growing up. It's really cool stuff *they also do some really dumb stuff but don't worry about that right now)
    If it's any consolation to you not being a fan of the series, they get rid of the wise cracking AI bot like 2 seasons in.
