Animorphs was a hastily written book series back in the mid to late 90's, not unlike Goosebumps. It appealed to a then large group of teens and tween nerds and general sci-fi losers due to its "relevant" writing style, chances are if you were a teen or tween in the 90's you have read some of it. While most of the series is very much filler, some of it maybe considered original writing, even though every alien in the series was sounds like it was made on Spore or captured from a bad acid trip. If you really give a crap keep reading, if not just skip to the TL;DR....

It was about a group of dumb-ass teenagers who were entrusted by a dying alien trying to save the world. To do this, he gave them the power to morph into animals, because highly-intelligent alien beings with a huge fleet of planet-destroying spaceships can totally be stopped by a bunch of animals. The bad-guy aliens were cool, too, because they were slug-like things called Yeerks that could crawl into your ear and take over your body. To everyone else, you'd look and act normal, but really, it was a parasitic alien controlling you.

The best part was, since Animorphs was a series about people turning into animals, it opened the gateway for a great deal of lulzy and original jokes about furries and bestiality.

Aliens and death and shape-shifting? Hell yea!

Animorphs was awesome up until the very very end, then it's officially agreed that it sucked dong. The writer, K.A. Applegate got lazy after becoming successful, and the last 40 or so books were written by ghostwriters. Also, all the main characters die because Applegate couldn't think of any better way to end the series without the phrase "and they lived happily ever after." Rachel dies in the Yeerk mothership battle though, and she dies on the Blade ship, not on the Pool ship. The rest of them (except for the nigger Cassie) die ramming another ship into another ship (yeah no one else knew what the fuck was going on either, it isn't just you). It turned out, K.A. was masterfully trolling us all, because as it turns out, she was in the process of writing another book about how everyone in the world fucking gets killed by a meteor. I'm not making this shit up.

Animorphs was turned into a TV series on Nickelodeon, but was canceled last Thursday. The TV series was known for its high-budget special effects, such as using flashlights for laser guns. No, srsly.
