Thundercats 2011

Yay!! Pumyra!!!

Yesterday I saw some screen shots from this ep and as soon as I saw the image of the Raccoon my only thought is. "He's gonna be a thief..." and yep! Typical thieving raccoon. *lol*

Today's episode was so hilarious, I felt I had to bump this just to share it.

Spoiler:

-Puffy-faced Pumyra
-Love-happy Tygra
-It's revealed that Lion-O has a crush on Pumyra and the ways he tries to show his affections leads to the above points.

It will air again tomorrow at the same time.

Wow. That episode was stupid. I just love it when competent characters become buffoonish caricatures of themselves for an entire episode.

Cartoon Network is coming to Canada!! so i might finally get to see this!

Forgot to comment last week that the Soul Sever ep was way better than the previous week's. It was kinda like 9, that CGI movie. It just freaked me out for a second, when I thought the writers might leave Tygra as a mech indefinitely. I hate when writers pick a character to incessantly bully. So glad that wasn't the case. Whew...

This week's ep was more what I'd call 'funny' than that one two weeks ago. Jokes didn't drag on for minutes. They were brief and spread out well. When I read my DVR's description that they were going to a city of birds, I was expecting the one Atticus the Monkian was terrorizing during his first appearance. I was surprised to see

Spoiler:

Vultaire the Vultureman instead. I guess I should have figured though since they were going after the tech stone, and Vultureman was the inventor of the mutants in the original series.

So, all the main villains from the original series' first season are accounted for. I guess we just need to wait fo Bengali to show up and Lynx-o to return to the group. I was kinda hoping for an ep with Hachiman, Mandora or Willa. But, I'm starting to think there aren't going to be any humans at all in this season.

Planning to order the new series Season 1 sets with my next paycheck. Currently doing a marathon run of the original series now that I finally have all four volumes, halfway through Season 1 Vol 1 disc 2. "The Garden Of Delights", Tygra's apparently on an acid trip after an encounter with a strange talking plant in the Garden. 80s shows rule. I REALLY wish the new show had the theme song/intro from the original.

[TheCanadiandrome]

I can't wait to Cartoon Network launches here, then I'll get to see season 2 of this show. I also plan, like Leo, to order all the Season 1 sets

Tomorrow's the season finale. However... I thought Lion-O had already been chosen as the next king of Thundera.

On a side note, I suppose it's about time I start collecting the DVDs.

Wasn't last week the season finale? It was part 2 of "What Lies Above." That aired last week, and the schedule for Cartoon Network says that Ninjago is taking over that Time Slot on Saturdays.

Only Books 1 and 2 are out right now. Book 3 of Season 1 won't be available until October.

Oh, you're right. I just saw my DVR, which I thought was programmed to record only first-runs, is scheduled to record "The Sword Of Omens" tomorrow. I guess I changed that setting to "record all episodes" so I could save the Snarf short for posterity's sake, if it ever comes on again. I know it wasn't included on the "Book 1" set.

Drat. I was looking forward to some Thundercats reruns. The Ninjago show is already on CN too much for my taste, and all its talk about "true potential" and "Green ninjas" just starts to annoy me.

Is it just me or does it seem like CN never shows reruns of superhero shows anymore?

With the way the season ended, I'm not going to be buying any of the DVDs if the show is getting canceled like so many people are speculating. I'll just let you see the ending for yourself.

My local listings still say that Thundercats is still going to be showing at that time, albeit in repeats. Same for next weekend.

I guess the schedule is different for different areas. And mine has to get the one with the Ninjago crud.

Actually, I got Ninjago after all, and the listings were soon changed to reflect that. Though when I did a search on Zap2It, it says that Thundercats is going to be shown again on July 7th.

I hope so. I want to watch it as much as I can to give it more support.

I also bought Books 1 and 2, pre-ordered Book 3. So I am hoping we get a 2nd season.

[LioConvoy]

I don't want to try to bug anyone here. But the new ThunderCats is facing cancellation due to bad movies in WB and CN corporate, even after a Cliff-Hanger Season Finale! If you would, please take a moment to sign this petition:

http://www.change.org/petitions/warn...another-season

Also, please e-mail Cartoon Network about wanting the series renewed like this:

http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/feedback/

Select "Programming", then "Thundercats". Tell them how you feel! Just watching the show and posting on forums ISN'T ENOUGH! We have to be proactive!


Thank you all so much! This series means a lot to me.

And is it just me or so far are all the character origins just down right depressing??

The entire cast seems to be made up of orphans:

Spoiler:

The twins: father killed by tornado, mother and younger siblings possibly starved to death, Tygra: biological parents died of some disease, Lion-O: Mother died giving birth to him, father killed by Mumm'ra. Cheetara: Who knows what happened to her family. But she was left without a clan at a young age. They haven't even delved into Panthro's early years really...

By the say, Wily-Mom and kids are fine, living in the out-skirts of Thundera. Confirmed by the Thunder-Crew!

Sadly once CN decides to cancel something it pretty much stays dead.
