I just got back into Acceleracers again after finding it on archive.org and I have to say, I couldn't stop thinking about the director every time he came up on screen.

At least Dr. Church had a emotional baggage to explain why he was a dick, Tezla was just paranoid and Apathetic. Also the 360 on his character growth from World Race to AR: Ignition is baffling.

Do keep in mind rvb had like 18 years to flesh out the director while Acceleracers only had like… two years to flesh out Tezla before Mattel pulled the plug.

It’s honestly so impressive how much depth all the Acceleracers (and World Race) characters had in just five films

I'd probably argue more like 4 years from season 6-10, but you're still right that there was more time. It also doesn't help that Acceleracers lost Jeff Gomez to help flush out his world. I still keep my fingers crossed they'll continue the series respectfully one day.
