History WesternAnimation / BikerMiceFromMars

* RealityEnsues: In "Below the Horizon" the mice jump off a gang away and land on their bikes...which proves to be very painful.

* AliensAndMonsters: Limburger hires them only every other episode.
** The native fauna of Mars can be pretty monstrous, as well.

* TenMinuteRetirement: "Modo Hangs It Up" has Modo not feel like continuing the fight because he's been deceived into thinking that an innocent kid got hurt while he was fighting Limburger's goons. [[spoiler:The kid in question was actually Limburger's nephew Marshall and he wasn't harmed at all.]]

''Biker Mice from Mars'' first aired in 1993 and ran for three seasons; thanks to having [[Creator/DepatieFrelengEnterprises the same producer/distributor, New World/Marvel]], it was also paired up with ''WesternAnimation/IronMan'' and ''WesternAnimation/FantasticFour'' as part of the ''Marvel Action Universe'' block. (Creator/MarvelComics also published the ComicBookAdaptation.) The show received a {{Revival}} in 2006; in this SequelSeries, the evil aliens are [[CatsAreMean a felinoid race]], the Catatonians. Both series were created by Creator/RickUngar, with the 2006 series sporting character designs (and redesigns) by comic book artist Bernie Wrightson.

** In "The Motor City Maniac", Vinnie comments that he finds Napoleon Brie familiar for some reason, with Brie responding by suggesting that they may have gone to high school together. This is a reference to the fact that their voice actors Ian Ziering and Creator/LukePerry both played characters on the teen drama ''Series/BeverlyHills90210''.
** In the third part of "Once Upon a Time on Mars", the Biker Mice get into an argument on what kind of maneuver to use to destroy the Plutarkian Tug Transformer, all of their suggestions being allusions to their voice actors. Vinnie (voiced by Ian Ziering) suggests the Zip-Zapping Ziering Zero, Modo (voiced by Creator/DorianHarewood) suggests the Harewood Crooked 10, and Throttle (voiced by Creator/RobPaulsen) insists on using the Rob-bobbin' Paulsen Doggle 2.
** In "Pwetty Wady" Brie tries out some new masks: one looks like Luke Perry, his voice actor.

* AliensStealCable: Martian mice steal Earth radio (supposedly where they learned English), and Limburger tries to emulate old Earth gangsters.

** Presumably the reason why the Pit Boss left Chicago and moved to UsefulNotes/KansaCity, due to one too many defeats by the Biker Mice and Four-By.

** The 1993 series had a one-shot villain named Cat Scan, who was an alien cat with psychic powers.

** Four-By, the ally of the Biker Mice who fights to bring an end to the Pit Boss' reign of terror, is oddly not present in "It's the Pits", the one episode of the 2006 series featuring the Pit Boss. [[spoiler: Most likely because Pit Boss had relocated to Kansas City and Four-By stayed in Chicago]]

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Presumably the reason why the Pit Boss left Chicago and moved to Kansas City, due to one too many defeats by the Biker Mice and Four-By.

* StayInTheKitchen: On occasion, the Mice have this attitude towards Charlie. She's never seen as pleased with this, and she's at least as competent as the mice are--partially because they've got egos the size of Mars, and hers is much more realistic. In their defense, it's mainly because they don't want her to get hurt because they desperately need her mechanical skills.

** "Once upon a time on Mars" shows that Modo lost both eyes, one of which was replaced with cybernetic implant synched to his new right arm. And Throttle's eyes were damaged in a way that made them hypersensitive to light at very least, forcing him to make new shades which would serve as a filter and, probably, aiming support system.

* {{Trumplica}}: In the 2006 revivial new characters Ronaldo Rump joins forces with the Catatonians. He's a mash-up of UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump and [[Series/ILoveLucy Ricky Ricardo]], who used to be a used car salesman and has a giant butt.

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: The "ice asteroids" from "Back To Mars" are patently weird, but nobody pays it any mind. They are a minor plot point later on. [[spoiler: They bring water back to Mars. Which isn't exactly the problem with the planet, but anyway...]]

A cartoon about [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Martian mice who ride motorbikes]]. Wandering out in space after fleeing from their near-dead planet, Throttle, Modo and Vinnie are shot up by Plutarkians and crash-land in a UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}} scoreboard in the middle of a game.

!!Biker Mice from Mars contains examples of:

* ActionGirl: Charley. Most of the time. On the other hand, Carbine is ''always'' an ActionGirl.
** Carbine has two DamselInDistress moments. Granted only two.

While attempting to find a mechanic to fix Throttle's bike, they find Charley's Last Chance Garage and stop in. They find that she's being bullied by a henchman of the show's BigBad, an alien who calls himself Mr. Limburger, to sign over the property. Mice step in, ass gets kicked, and they all get embroiled to save the planet from the ravening maw of the Plutarkian Empire (which apparently has a practice of strip-mining and carting off everything of value on and in a planet).

* Trumplica: In the 2006 revivial new characters Ronaldo Rump joins forces with the Catatonians. He's a mash-up of Donald Trump and Ricky Ricardo, who used to be a used car salesman and has a giant butt.

* SeriesContinuityError: While the 2006 series is meant to be a follow-up to the original 1993 cartoon, Vinnie is depicted eating pizza in some episodes even though the original show established that the Biker Mice hated cheese and Modo's bike is named "Hardcase" instead of "Lil' Hoss".

** The 1993 episode " Last Stand at The Last Chance" enstablish that Vinnie is allergic to cats, including aliens felines like Catscan. You'd think it would came up when fighting a whole race of them in the 2006 series…

* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: The mice know that Limburger isn't the only Plutarkian on Earth yet they only concern themselves with Chicago.

* GoGoEnslavement: Attempted with Charley, in "Back to Mars", but it doesn't go so well. Charley is so infuriated by Slobber the Mutt's attempt at making her wear a revealing outfit that she beats him up and tosses him into a mud pit.

* CityOfWeirdos: Happens on occasion. In one instance while the titular Mice are fighting a villain in the street, we see a civilian calmly check his watch and wander off as though nothing odd is happening.

** In another aversion, the episode "So Lifelike" features Limburger summoning the [[ShowWithinAShow cartoon villain]] Deathmaster.
