"Street Sharks" is an animated series about teenage mutants fighting evil forces. Jeb, Striks, Ripster, and Slamm are four brothers who are searching for their missing father. However, their search leads them to the laboratory of Dr. Luther Paradigm, who is conducting genetic experiments on humans at the time. He is testing a new gene-transforming device invented by his colleague, Robert Bolton, and the boys accidentally find themselves in the path of the rays. They transform into half-human, half-shark beings.
