    Thundercats Ho! 1985 Vs 2011 - YouTube

    I love the way the homage the original (in a good way) by shot for shot recreating the original Lion-O's way of activating the Sword of Omens.

    Also, the young man doing new Lion-O is brilliant, and for some reason I can see him swinging a prop sword around in the recording booth.

    This week's episode sounds interesting:

    Season 1, Episode 5 - "Old Friends"
    Episode Synopsis: The team search for Thundrilium and learn more about Panthro and Grune's past.

    I also just noticed on my Comcast program listing that it has an "S" rating, which means "some sexual situations". I assume that's simply because of Cheetara. :lol

    Damn i knew that voice sounded familiar. Especially considering I just wrapped up watching Batman Beyond the series again not too long ago.

    The series is hitting all the marks with the last episode being very touching for a one shot story. I hope they can continue the momentum.

    Nice comparison of the old and new Lion-O rallying calls. I agree it's cool to see that they replicated Lion-O's sword activation sequence for the new series, tho' Lion-O's "Thunder, Thunder, Thunder" lines are drawn out a bit longer.

    Yup. Lion-O = Terry McGinnis/Batman! Will Friedle also voices Ron Stoppable from "Kim Possible" and Blue Beetle from "Batman: The Brave and The Bold".

    The young man playing the new Lion-O was once also known as Eric Mathews in Boy Meets World. :) 

    I like how they hinted at a possible relationship developing between Cheetara and Lion-O in the last episode. And for the record, I find this Cheetara to be way more seductive than the original Cheetara. (Who I could never figure out why people made a big deal about her. In the original I just thought she was some tom-boy fighting to help her friends.)

    Holy Farts on a Buffalo Wing, I watched Friday's episode last night. I swear my fiance and I were almost in tears, if not so. I love how each episode is a little mini adventure movie in itself. I'm not even a fan of the kitties, but this show has been sweet!
