#CHEETARA THUNDERCATS ROAR SERIES#

Every step we take towards comedy, we take two more towards really cool action scenes and explosions and lasers and actions effects.” said Courtright. So with the new show, we’re not walking away from the action in any bit.

It’s very much something that we want to lean on. But at the same time, it wouldn’t be ThunderCats if it didn’t have super cool action elements because that’s what people came back to. “I think the world that they built lends itself really well to comedy because of how silly and crazy and outlandish those ideas are and some of those settings are.

Producer Victor Courtright previously explained that the series will lean into the comedy of the world despite staying true to the original’s premise. But that was the entire point of the new series. It’s ridiculous, catastrophic and a shame to the original series. What was once an action-packed show about fearsome cat-like humanoid aliens is now a rainbow kawaii slapstick mess. The show seems to be dumbed down by a couple of notches. Mumm-ra – a character that used to scare the pants off children, appears less-scarily and dare we even say, even a little cute. But the Lion-O in series appears softer, tubbier and a whole lot more kiddie. He had muscles popping up at places where there shouldn’t be. Lion-O, as we know him, was hyper-masculine, manly and strong. Starting with how the ThunderCats looked. Whilst it’s true that the premise and characters are kept the same, everything else about the show has changed.

A bizarre host of creatures and villains stand in their way, including the evil Mumm-Ra, Third Earth’s wicked ruler who will let nothing, including the ThunderCats, stop his tyrannical reign over the planet.”

Lion-O, the newly appointed Lord of the ThunderCats, attempts to lead the team as they make this planet their new home. The official summary of the series is: “Staying true to the premise of the original series, Lion-O and the ThunderCats - Tygra, Panthro, Cheetara, Wilykat, and Wilykit - barely escape the sudden destruction of their homeworld, Thundera, only to crash land on the mysterious and exotic planet of Third Earth. ThunderCats Roar will follow the same premise and will keep the same characters in the original series. We went to take a look and we were not prepared for what we were about to see.
