The show.
AJ is an 8-year-old techie who drives monster-truck Blaze, the top racer in Axle City. The two go on adventures that have them taking on problems involving science and math. Many predicaments they face are caused by Blaze's rival, Crusher, a tractor-trailer that will do anything to beat other vehicles to the finish line. The animated series is billed as the first TV show for preschoolers to comprehensively cover areas of science, technology, engineering and math. Each episode introduces different STEM concepts, including buoyancy and trajectory.
our take
“The STEM content is real and the show does introduce concepts like trajectory and force in accessible ways. It scores an F because the delivery is relentlessly fast-paced with racing sequences, dramatic rivalries, and flashy visual effects that make it one of the more overstimulating shows on our list.”
