**Ben 10,** later known as **Ben 10 Classic**, is an American animated series created by the group Man of Action and produced by Cartoon Network Studios. The pilot episode *And Then There Were 10*, aired on December 27, 2005, as part of a sneak peek of Cartoon Network's Saturday morning lineup.

This series was followed-up by three sequels called **Ben 10: Alien Force**, **Ben 10: Ultimate Alien**, and **Ben 10: Omniverse**, and was later rebooted.

## Plot

Ten-year-old Ben Tennyson, his ten-year-old paternal first-cousin Gwen, and their paternal Grandpa Max start their summer camping trip. Ben goes stomping off into the woods after another fight with Gwen, whom he is not happy to have along on the trip, and finds an alien pod on the ground. When he examines it, he finds a mysterious, watch-like device, called the Omnitrix. The device attaches permanently to his wrist and gives him the ability to transform into a numerous variety of alien life-forms, each with their own unique powers and abilities. Although Ben realizes that he has a responsibility to help and save others with these new abilities at his disposal, he is not above a little ten-year-old super-powered mischief now and then. Along with Gwen and Max, Ben embarks on an adventure to fight evil, both extraterrestrial and earthly. Ben has faced lots of villains including villains fighting together in a team or a partner once such as when Vilgax and Kevin 11 fought Ben.

## Theme Song

The theme song of **Ben 10** was sung by Moxy and written by Andy Sturmer. In the first and second seasons, Ghostfreak was the ninth alien in the theme song. Cannonbolt replaced Ghostfreak as the ninth alien in the third and fourth seasons.

### Lyrics

It started when an alien device did what it did,

And stuck itself upon his wrist with secrets that it hid,

Now he's got super powers, he's no ordinary kid,

He's Ben 10!.... (Ben 10! Ben 10!)

So if you see him, you might be in for a big surprise,

He'll turn into an alien before your very eyes,

He's slimy, creepy, fast and strong, he's every shape and size,

He's Ben 10!.... (Ben 10!)

Armed with power, he's on the case,

Fighting off evil from Earth or space,

He'll never stop till he makes them pay,

'Cause he's the baddest kid to ever save the day!

Ben 10! (Ben 10! Ben 10! Ben 10! Ben 10! Ben 10! Ben 10!)

## Trivia

 File:BenveGwen.jpg
* Recurring lines in the series are: "Oh man!", "Going hero!", and "It's hero time!".
* Ghostfreak was replaced by Cannonbolt in the theme song from season 3 onwards, due to his escape, although, Ghostfreak could be seen in the Season 3 intro at the very end, when all the aliens get sucked into the watch before the logo comes up.
* A remixed version of the theme was played in ***Ben 10: Race Against Time***.
* **Ben 10** was produced in both 16:9 (HD) and 4:3 (SD/widescreen) formats, but was only aired in 4:3 due to restrictions put in place by Cartoon Network. As of June 14, 2015, all four seasons are available in HD and widescreen format on iTunes. Amazon Instant Video and Google Play has all four seasons in widescreen format.
* In Norway, Sweden and Denmark, episodes 22 and 23, 24 and 25, and 27 and 28 switched places.
* In the latest reruns, the theme song has been shortened (except in the episodes *Ben 10 vs. the Negative 10: Part 1 and 2*). The current airings on Boomerang have now gone back to the original theme song's length.
* In Poland, episodes 50, 51, and 52 were switched in airing.
* In *Heroes United*, Rex makes his own theme song similar to the Ben 10 theme song.
* On iTunes the icons of each season include the following aliens: Season 1 - Ben (with Four Arms icon), Season 2 - Cannonbolt, Season 3 - Blitzwolfer, Season 4 - Perk Upchuck (varies to Ditto on DVD)
