In promotion of their new tv show Disney XD has posted the entire half hour long first episode on YouTube. To be honest I'm kind of surprised it doesn't have more views; Tron Legacy did great in theaters and this animated series features some big names such as Elijah Wood and Mandy Moore. Their definitely playing to a younger audience, but this first episode was pretty damn good.

Beck is a young mechanic living in Argon City, a growing metropolis in a far off corner of the grid that has just been occupied by General Tesler, a henchman of the notorious Clu. After his best friend Bodhi is ruthlessly derezzed by Clu's army, Beck seeks justice for his lost friend and launches a crusade against the regime. His rebellion captures the attention of Tron, the greatest warrior The Grid has ever known, who sees the potential in Beck and trains him to be his successor. Labeled with the moniker of The Renegade, Beck sparks a revolution to fight for the freedom of The Grid.
