The newest{{when}} installment in Hasbro's on-going ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' franchise, ''G.I. Joe: Renegades'' is an [[Animated Series]] airing on [[The Hub]]. The show lasted for 26 episodes, running from November 2010 to July, 2011.
''Renegades'' changes things up by having the team being wanted fugitives for destroying a Cobra Industries pharmaceutical plant. The truth of the matter is that counter-intel agent Shana "Scarlett" O'Hara recruited a small team of soldiers, Conrad "Duke" Hauser, Nicky "Tunnel Rat" Lee, Marvin "Roadblock" Hinton and Wallace "Ripcord" Weems ([[My Friends and Zoidberg|and Snake Eyes]] as backup) to infiltrate the plant. They found bio-weapon research going on, but were discovered by Cobra agents. The ensuing conflict resulted in the destruction of the plant and the evidence O'Hara was looking for.
Line 14:
New episode production has been put on hiatus at the end of the first season as they don't want to cause brand confusion with the [[G.I. Joe: Retaliation|sequel to the live-action movie.]] Word out there is that Season 2 won't be produced, leaving the show with an unresolved ending.

Line 149:
** In "Shipwrecked", we meet this show's version of...you guessed it, Shipwreck. He named his vessel Courtney, after the woman on a poster taped outside the cabin. Duke remarks that it's model Courtney Krieger, which is the real name of Cover Girl from the original series (apparently, she's blonde as opposed to the original auburn).
* [[Never Say "Die"]]: Averted hard {{spoiler|with Ripcord's [[Never Found the Body|APPARENT]] death in the first episode, as well as the traitorous major}}...although they still haven't ''said'' "die" yet.
** They're also allowing for at least discussion of some rather visceral ideas, such as {{spoiler|battlefield tracheotomies, though that was averted by Tunnel Rat's natural 20 on a Survival check to find a plant to treat Scarlett's allergic reaction. [[The Lord of the Rings|Aragorn]] would be proud.}}
* [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]]: Mecha-Vipers and Shadow-Vipers
** Jinx returns in ''Cutting Edge'' {{spoiler|sporting a spiffy robot suit filled to the brim with, well... [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|cutting edge]] technology.}}
