So, who's watching the new series of ThunderCats on Cartoon Network? The two-part opening episode just aired yesterday. The actor who voiced the original Lion-O is voicing Lion-O's dad in this series :)

Is it any good?

[Dasquian Belargic]

It was fun! A little... darker (not emo) than the original and although the familiar characters are there, they have been given a new twist.

The animation style reminds me of Avatar The Last Airbender.

[Eluna Thals]

well, after watching the trailer, I'm hooked :)

[Tear]

Thundercats! Thundercats! THUNDER CATS!

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Dasquian Belargic]

Yep. There's even some of that ^ :lol and you can download a ringtone of new Lion-O saying it from the CN website

[Zem Vymes]

are they gonna have full episodes on there?

[Dasquian Belargic]

It looks like it but you had to type in some information about your cable provider or something... so I just went and found it elsewhere

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Boo it isn't On Demand. We looked for it today. :(

[Tom Harriman]

Doesn't come out in the UK until the end of September.

Seriously? Two months later? In this day and age? It's like they're asking for people to go out and pirate it. :grumble

[Peter McCoy]

This starts tomorrow (well, in 8 and a half hoursd time as I type this)

I'm definitely gonna be checking this out!

[Kassandra Distorith]

Oh I LOVE it...totally brings me back to being a little kid. Different than the one I remember, but still...really good. I DVR it and have watched each episode multiple times :)

[Inyos Aamoran]

This starts tomorrow (well, in 8 and a half hoursd time as I type this)

I'm definitely gonna be checking this out!

Which channel, Peter? Was it Cartoon Network?

My weekly V+ recordings are getting a little sparse this month, so I might as well flesh it out with some awesomeness.

[Peter McCoy]

Yeah, it was mate.

I managed to catch the opening episode (actually a 2-parter) yesterday. I like it. :)

(bizarrely I somehow missed Thundercats as a kid, yet somehow managed to get hooked on it's siblings Silverhawks and Tigersharks o_O).
