'''''Cyberchase''''' is an [[Edutainment Show]] that began airing in 2002 on [[PBS]]. As of the end of 2019, it was in its 12th season.
 
The series revolves around a trio of kids, Jackie, Inez, and Matt, and their robotic bird friend (known as a "cyboid") Digit, who go [[Inside the Internet]]. They have been called upon by Motherboard to help defend and repair Cyberspace from the evil schemes of The Hacker, who is not a [[Playful Hacker|playful one]], or even human, but an evil cyborg whose goal is to conquer all of Cyberspace and spread chaos. The Hacker used to be Motherboard's assistant; however, he tried to destroy her by downloading a virus into her. Luckily, her firewall was able to stop the damage from being too severe, but still left her in a weakened state, thus forcing her to recruit Jackie, Matt, and Inez from Earth to help defend Cyberspace.

----
=== Includes examples of: ===
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot]]
* [[Alphabet Soup Cans]]
* [[Exclusively Evil]]: A bit of a [[Broken Aesop]] in that no character is ever seen going from 'evil' to 'good' for real. [[Justified Trope|Justified]] in that that would complicate the plot and not make it a show about math and science.
Line 50 ⟶ 49:
* [[Elevator Floor Announcement]]
* [[Elvis Impersonator]]: Hacker in one episode, when he became [[Punny Name|the King]] of Happily-Ever-After.
* [[Endangered SouffleSoufflé]]
* [[Enemy Mine]]: The final episode {{spoiler|due to the series no longer in production at least according to PBS Kids Go! despite getting a relaunch on their website}} has the Cybersquad teaming up with Hacker to defeat Ledge.
* [[Evil Redhead]]: Wicked
Line 88 ⟶ 87:
* [[Lantern Jaw of Justice]]: Inverted with the Hacker. Just ''look'' at that thing.
* [[Large Ham]]: Hacker. Jackie also has a habit of announcing that they're "DOOMED!" very loudly.

'''Matt''': [[Lampshade Hanging|And the award for best dramatic outburst of the day goes to... Jackie!]] }}
* [[Leitmotif]]: Listen for a soft techno beat when the kids go into educational mode. Familiar to those with dial-up Internet.
