What the bell have you done to Ben 10 this version of the cartoon is complete garbage . My kids used to love watching Ben 10 but now can’t stand it and want to get rid of all their Ben 10 toys. I don’t know if your are trying to be PC or trying to keep the woke brigade happy but I wish you we just stop and go back to the original Ben 10 and bin this new garbage you are calling Ben 10.
