Notes

Title is correctly spelled with Æ but has been rendered as Ae for ease of searching.

Preceded by a series of shorts broadcast as part of the MTV anthology series Liquid Television. The main series itself ran for 10 half-hour episodes. Some online sources such as Wikipedia split the shorts into two seasons, and identify the standalone half-hour episodes as being the third season. The date used in this listing refers to when it aired as a standalone only.

Remade in 2005 as a live-action film with Charlize Theron in the title role.

 The Specialists, was Great to. And a Brilliant 60's type theme. With there Untested Sonic Propulsion Unit. To escape the Mad Vigilante "Krimeclause". H.

 You're spot on 23skidoo - Joan Severance - statuesque, athletic, steely looks... total spitting image of Æon. You should have been that Casting Agent! I remember her in the Richard Pryor/Gene Wilder See No Evil comedy. Mmm...yes.

Although Carrie Ann Moss I think would not have been stylish enough. She's pretty hard-faced and too tough-looking.

 @BiggieTembo. The perfect actress for the role would have been a woman named Joan Severance who in the 1990s was best known for being the first to play Black Scorpion in a series of B-movies put out by Roger Corman. While not as insectoid-looking as Aeon in the animated series she had the right look for the part and in fact I recall she talked like the character too. Carrie Moss from the Matrix would have been a good choice too.

 Saw this in the UK when they showed it as the Liquid Television strand - a pot-pourri of experimental shorts (read: mostly irritating tosh - Dogboy for one was teeth-gratingly irksome); BBC2 I think it was. But Æon Flux blew me away - totally nihilistic bizarre futuristic auto-destructive minimalistic (at least the first episodes) meaningless chain-reaction-action style!

There's a great DVD box set which comprises all three seasons, and loads of chatting and whatnots for the die-hards.

But the first series made the most impression - almost totally devoid of any dialogue or explanation (just as we Europeans like it). The Charlize Theron vehicle was kinda doomed from the start - imagine trying to make a live-action film out of that! But it gave a good stab at the format and is quite enjoyable. Charlize Theron did a good turn at the character, though.
