Trivia
During the show's heyday, children who met Larisa Oleynik (and were too young to understand special effects) would sometimes ask her to "morph" for them. Rather than try to explain things, she would quickly glance around, then tell them "Not here - everybody would see!".

There was some minor controversy about a scene in the pilot of the series, in which after Alex's transformation into liquid, she reforms into human form nude (behind some boxes, no actual nudity shown.) While somewhat controversial, this scene was featured in every season 1 intro sequence.

The show was a major part of Nickelodeon's Saturday night programming block, SNICK, intended as something of a replacement for Clarissa Explains it All, which had just ended its run around that time.

Q
How does it end?
A
The final episode was a 2-parterPart 1:GC-161 has finally been approved for sale to the public due to faulty test results that Danielle Atron and Lars provided to the FDA. George Mack expresses his concerns to Danielle about the dangers of the chemical but she fires him for asking too many questions and fearing that he is a danger. In the meantime Alex decides to morph in the park but she is caught by Louis Driscol forcing Alex and Ray to let him in on their secret. Later that day Louis talks to Ray about Alex's powers over a cell phone which the plant has been monitoring. Lars kidnaps Louis and threatens to torture him if he dosen't reveal Alex. In a panic Louis tells the plant that Alex is the kid from the accident. Hunter later tries to convince Alex to tell her parents about the accident due to the recent events such as the approval of GC-161 and George being fired. Alex decides that she will tell her parents although immediately afterwards plant security arrives at her front door. Alex and Hunter try to escape however after Alex morphs and a security guy sucks her up in a vaccum. When George and Barbarra get back the security people grab them to take back to the plant as well. Alex arrives at the plant as is placed in a glass cage when is totally immune to GC-161, basically her powers are useless in it. She reforms inside to have Danielle Atron starring her in the face.Part 2:Part 2 picks up right where Part 1 left off. Danielle Atron taunts Alex over the fact that if she had just come forward after the accident then she would have been arrested and Alex would have been safe. Alex immediately regrets not telling her parents but realizes that it's too late. In the meantime Dave(the truck driver who hit Alex with the chemical) sneaks back to the plant and takes pictures of George and Barbarra being brought in. Wanting to save Alex and her family he takes the pictures to the police. Ray and Hunter also decide to sneak into the plant in an attempt to free Alex. George and Barbarra are then brought into the room where Alex is being held prisoner. Alex is then forced to tell them about the accident. Both George and Barbarra are very mad that Alex waited 4 years to tell them, and that even though she may have had fun with her powers that they were in a very bad position with little hope of escape. Danielle and Lars plan to blow up the plant with all the evidence inside, including Alex and her parents. Lars sets explosives and shortly afterwards Ray breaks into the room and smashes the glass that Alex is behind. Alex morphs down her parents and escapes however Ray is captured and handcuffed down to a desk. Alex decides to go back in to get Ray because he would never leave her. Alex morphs down Ray in the nick of time and make their way out of the plant. Hunter tackles Danielle to the ground when she attempted to escape in a helicopter and the police arrest her and Lars. Alex then sees Dave and he reveals that he knew the entire time that Alex was the kid from the accident but didn't say anything because he knew what Danielle would have done. The next day George gives Alex and antidote that will take away her powers and the series ends with Alex starring off into the sunset and it is left up to the viewers imagination as to whether she took the antidote, or kept her powers.
