Sonic Underground is the third Sonic the Hedgehog animated series, and also the last one produced by DiC; it follows a main plot separate from all other Sonic the Hedgehog media, where Sonic had two siblings, Sonia and Manic, that were collectively part of a royal family who were forced to separate from their mother, Queen Aleena, upon Robotnik's takeover of Mobius due to a prophecy told by the Oracle of Delphius.
It first aired in the United States in the syndicated children’s block BKN Kids depending on affiliates, UPN, WB or the Sci-Fi CHannel (now known as SyFy) on August 30th, 1999 and ended on October 22nd, 1999. The show ran only for one season consisting of forty episodes.
Re-runs of the series aired on Disney XD starting June 11th, 2012 and ending on December 14th, 2012. This makes it the second time a Sonic the Hedgehog cartoon airs on a Disney-themed channel with the first being Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog on Toon Disney.
But before landing on Disney XD, re-runs aired on the MGM-Owned This TV Network in a block "cleverly" called This Is For KIds TV from September 2010 to September 2011.
I found these episodes at archive.org, clumped between Wild Kratts & Heathcliff episodes. This show holds a special place in my heart as it helped be a Sonic fan again since 2011.
I don't own this series, Sonic Underground is owned by DiC/Cookie Jar/DHX Media/WildBrain whoever thery are called now...

![[Xonox] Double-Ender Cartridge Chuck Norris Superkicks/Artillery Duel (December 1983](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yx2mTMHP7Yg/mqdefault.jpg "[Xonox] Double-Ender Cartridge Chuck Norris Superkicks/Artillery Duel (December 1983
Aired during The Smurfs on KMTV, an NBC Omaha affiliate sometime around December 1983
Based in Minnesota, Xonox was the video game division K-Tel International of Veg-O-Matic fame. Xonox is well known by retro gamers for capitalizing on the novelty and perceived value of double-ender cartridges. These could be inserted into the console on one of the two ends, each end offering a different game.
They made games for the Atari 2600, ColecoVision & Commodores C64 & Vic-20 micro computers for a short time before they closed due to the effect of the infamous 1983 North American Video Game Crash. Games included in this ad are Artillery Duel & Chuck Norris Superkicks
Originally published by Bally for their short-lived Astrocade console, Artillery Duel consists of dueling cannons on either side of a hill or mountain of varying height and shape. Each player has control of the incline and force behind the shell launched, the objective being to score a direct hit on the opposing target. Where many versions gave the player a few tries on the same course, Artillery Duel switches to a new mountain after each turn. When the player does manage to hit the opposing cannon, the reward is a brief animation of comically marching soldiers at the bottom of the screen.
Chuck Norris Superkicks, is a 1983 video game produced by Xonox where the player takes control of Chuck Norris trying to reach an ancient monastery to rescue a famous leader being held hostage. Dangerous warriors lie in waiting to stop you. It was later sold as Kung Fu Superkicks when the license for the use of the name Chuck Norris expired.
