''Ace Lightning'' is a 2002 British children's television show that was created by Jim Corston and Rick Siggelkow. It primarily features a mix of live actors and CGI characters, which was a first for weekly television shows.


The series was a huge success that lasted for two seasons, with only the first airing in the United States. In fact, the BBC even went as far as to plan a third season that was never produced. Things are unclear as to whether the BBC will ever revive the series and produce this third season.
