Broadcast and distribution Initial run The Saturday morning series differs from the weekly Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, which premiered the same month. While Adventures is lighthearted and comical, Sonic the Hedgehog featured a comparatively complex plot and dramatic atmosphere. It explored unusual story concepts for animation, including losing loved ones to war. At ABC 's request, the second season included episodes devoted to humor, while darker elements were reduced. Other changes include Princess Sally donning a jacket for season two, and Rotor receiving a new design. Syndication After the program 's initial run, it appeared on the USA Network 's Action Extreme Team from June 1997 to January 1998. The series aired in Canada on the CTV Network, with a bonus summer run between June 10 and September 2, 1995. ABC did not replicate this, replacing Sonic with reruns of Free Willy. Sonic the Hedgehog has not been rerun on broadcast or cable television in Canada since its cancellation on CTV, but was present on the Shomi video - on - demand platform until its November 30, 2016 closure. From 1994 to 1996, it had a complete run on the UK television channel Channel MCD. In December 1994, the first season was broadcast in the Republic of Ireland on RTÉ Two. On September 2, 2016, reruns of the series began airing on Starz.

In other media Comics Main article : Sonic the Hedgehog ( comics ) Archie 's Sonic the Hedgehog comic book was initially based on the Saturday morning cartoon. From its earliest issues, the book shared the characters and story premise established within it. However, the comic differed in that it featured humorous plots modeled after the weekday show. After writer Ken Penders had the opportunity to view the Saturday morning program, the comic gradually became adventure driven. The comic series shifted focus again after ABC cancelled Sonic the Hedgehog, developing into a relationship - based superhero story, and following a reboot, Archie 's Sonic was primarily inspired by the video game series. Nevertheless, the characters and locales from the Saturday morning cartoon remained prominent until the comic 's cancellation in July 2017. Video games Several video games were intended to use elements from the TV series, although only one was completed. This was Sonic Spinball, released in 1993 for the Sega Genesis. It contained characters from the show, including Princess Sally, Bunnie Rabbot, Rotor and Muttski. The characters were also planned for use in another game, tentatively titled Sonic - 16. A prototype was created by the Sega Technical Institute. Yuji Naka disliked the project, and it was cancelled without further development. Directly afterwards, the same team worked on Sonic Mars. Prior to cancellation, this would have featured Princess Sally and Bunnie Rabbot as playable characters. Reception Sonic the Hedgehog initially ranked # 9 in its time slot with a 5.2 rating, an estimated 4.8 million viewers. Mark Bozon of IGN criticized the show as dated, considering it `` so bad, it 's good. '' Writing for DVD Talk, Todd Douglass Jr. remarked that Sonic did n't stand the test of time. Overall, he considered it to be of low quality, although he found the stories `` Ultra Sonic '' and `` Blast to the Past '' to be `` the crème of the crop. '' Luke Owen of Flickering Myth felt Sonic aged better than is often supposed, praising its well - executed characterizations and treatment of war, although he considered Antoine to be `` one of the worst characters committed to a cartoon series. '' GamesRadar listed the show as one of `` the worst things to happen to Sonic. '' It criticized its plot and characters as `` unwanted ''. Former Escapist journalist Bob Chipman credited the series with providing a viably menacing take on Doctor Robotnik, and an engaging narrative. Bob Mackey of USgamer wrote that the cartoon 's writing did n't live up to its intriguing premise. In particular, he argued that the Antoine character perpetrated negative French stereotypes. Meanwhile, Doug Walker of Channel Awesome considered the series `` a great show, '' and better than he remembered. He praised it for `` literally taking nothing and turning it into something, '' with a strong story and good character development, as well as a subtle environmental message.

In fact, it was perhaps the first time in animation history that two separate shows were simultaneously produced featuring the same character. `` The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog '' took a freewheeling slapstick approach to the characters and was seen across the nation in daily syndication. Meanwhile, the ABC - TV network checked in with a Saturday morning version simply called `` Sonic the Hedgehog. '' This series was filled with pure, slam - bang adventure and intrigue -- and thoughtful characterization. In the beginning, Sega instructed our editorial team to reflect the art and story styles of the syndicated series, but it soon became apparent from fan reaction that the Saturday morning series was the one striking a nerve. The comic soon followed suit with a mix of the two styles, but a heavier emphasis on the dramatic. '' - Paul Castiglia, former editor of Archie 's Sonic the Hedgehog comic Jump up ^ `` I became enamored of the storylines in the series but was told we could n't tie - in directly to the stories in the series as DiC - just like SEGA - refused to cooperate with us in allowing us access to their material for the purpose of tying together the continuity of the book with the show, something I was very much interested in, as was Scott. It was only during the time when it was uncertain whether or not ABC would even renew the series for a third season that DiC provided us with scripts and other materials, probably out of hope that maybe the book would help attract more viewers if it were tied in more closely with the show. Mike and I were even invited to submit outlines with the idea we would be contributing to the third season as scriptwriters.... It was only when we learned the show was cancelled that I changed my mind about embracing the show as it was and instead decided to proceed as if the book were the third season and continuing beyond that. There were many reasons for this but the most important one boiled down to simply this : the book 's very survival. We never, ever felt the book had much of a shelf life beyond the existence of the games and animated series if we did n't develop it into its own unique series.
