    Just finished watching it, I thought it was pretty interesting. Love everything about it so far. This will keep me occupied until Young Justice returns hopefully. Can't wait for the next episode!

    its really different it looked like it takes places like 1000 years into the future of the original Thundercats. It also reminded me of Troy.

    It was ill I loved that they played up the tension between Tygra & Lion-O; Grune's role was expected but not this early & I'm  glad they're saving Panthro for later Tygra was awesome & Cheetara was sexy but deadly; I loved Lion-O's voice & look Claudus was cool too  & I loved Slythe he looked more muscular than in the original instead of a chubby lizard mutant with a huge upperbody. But Mummra looked the same just better coloring & sound more sinister

    I checked my on cable guide no replays but they should do it. They did it with Young Justice & a few other new shows. But Adult Swim got a extra hr so that could be why their not doing replays

    @ragdollpurps: doubt it....with Young Justice there was a gap between the premiere and the start of the season but Thundercats has a new episode next friday....Cartoon Network usually doesn't replay shows in different time slots...only reruns when there isn't a new episode to air

    my thoughts also. i guess it was pretty good for a children cartoon, but it is so different from what i remember from the original toon that i am unsure how i feel about it. will watch the new episodes until i can make a better conclusion.  so far i thought the character design and voices where hit and miss. hope Panthro cani come back and play an important role, because he was my favorite character as a kid.  idk, i guess i just need to see more. 
     
    please do this for Silverhawks as well :)

    That's something that has always bothered me, they never replay any of the episodes...its a wonder why a lot of these shows get canceled, they get played once and its suppose to take off with just one airring lol They play the same schedule all the time and set out this small little block on Fridays for shows like Batman, Young Justice, etc and thats it.
     
    If you haven't seen it, it's probably made its way online by now, on youtube or the official CN site.

    I saw it and I liked it.  I am so happy that snarf cant talk, Tygra and Lion-O being brothers is kind of an interesting twist.  Mumm-ra is really evil, and I like it, in the original version he was kind of wimpy.

    I couldn't agree more. I really loved it. And speaking as a fan of the old series, I find this one to be just as good. I'm glad they've made it so that snarf doesn't talk, he sure did piss me off throughout the entire run of the older series. And I absolutely love Cheetara, she was great. I can't wait for more.

    Lion-O was a wimp,he let Tygra knock the shyt outta him! lol he fell  to his doom and Tygra rung the bell like he said he would XD....tisk tisk poor little bother. 
     
    I like how they made Lion-O and Tygra brothers,they were always close like best friends i the original.Though he's adopted older bother of Lion-O...lol Tigers and Lions cant be related..can they??.. nope unless unnatural cross breeding! =P 
     
    Cheetarah is my homie,she put it down for all the ladies(me) out there.she whooped ass!! Oh and Wily Kit and Wily kat are adorable, forgot they were twins.
    ...It was sad how Jaga sacrificed himself :(

    I never watched Thundercats until about 3 or 4 hours ago when I decided to try the new series out so far it's great but reminds me a bit of the Avatar series.

    the new series is worth giving a chance, but whats with all the Snarf hate he was the best comic relief on the show. I remember two of my favorite episodes were when snarf saved the day. Ido wonder how they are going to work in Wily Kit and Kat.

    I have not been able to watch because of the Gym but man I have been wanting to watch.  
      
    I want to watch because well when I was young I watched Voltron and Thundercats and even then I saw the potential. While both had awesome stuff in there the repeat animation and very predictable plot lines make these almost unbearable to watch. Considering that now cartoons are taken seriously and companies actually give them decent budgets (think of Avatar, Ben 10 and Generator Rex) the potential for these shows may be realized.

    You know, I really, truly liked this. I think this new take is great and sets up the story to engage kids as well as late teen/adult viewers. This very much so reminds me of the approach WB took with JL/JLU. It isn't shy about lifting influence from other shows/films, but it has enough originality to set it apart.

    @Aqua11500:  
    Lynx-Oh was in this episode he's the one that told dude to ring the alarm. I don't know if he made it out of Thundara though...looks like the reptiles weren't too interested in taking prisoners. 1,000s of years of oppression tends to raise the blood lust up a bit :P Lynx-Oh was my fav of the new characters they introduced in the original and I hope he pops back up later on.  
     
    I loved that Snarf couldn't talk as well, that one change alone made it better than the original, love.  
     
    The sibling rivalry between Tigra/Lion-O really adds an interesting dynamic to the show. Wily Kit/Kat were great, I loved them as streetwise orphans. Cheetara was firmly responsible for irresistible attraction to female track and field participants and in this show she's everything she needed to be and more. Her being a cleric was dope. I liked the clerics in general. They were a nice nod to Ninja Scroll. I thought I'd be watching this and repeatedly face palming, but I must say they've done a damn fine job and the changes they've made have improved this show greatly. A while back and went and tried to watch a few of the old Thundercat episodes and just found that it truly has lost it's luster for me. Crazy how things change when you whip off the nostalgia goggles and get objective.
