Facts. ThunderCats had a lot of good ideas but it was poorly executed and not very well acted. Everything’s just a bit too extra.
Snarf is fine. Snarfer was annoying AF. Snarfer was the younger snarf on the second crew, with Lynx-O and Bengali and the others. No kids on that crew, I think it was just the old blind man, the alt-palette Tygra, and a woman I can only vaguely remember. And Snarfer. No one liked him. Or Mumm-Ra’s dog, for that matter… “Ma-Mutt”? Though Mumm-Ra himself was awesome, in either form.
The show has aged like milk, though the 2011 series fixed some of the cringe. It added some of its own, but didn’t add up to what the 1985 series reached.
I still think Grune the Destroyer, Tower of Traps, the Trials (where Lion-O had to best each of the other adults, and then beat Mumm-Ra unarmed), the time machine episode, and Book of Omens were mostly good. Maybe a couple others.
I remember the trials as being a step up and it was nice the way it showcased the young siblings ability. It reminded me a bit of the legion of superheroes where the wonder twins go off to defend their planet and actually show themselves pretty powerful and competent.
The twins (or whatever they were) were always top tier for child characters. The voice acting wasn’t the greatest with them sounding a bit whiny, but they were solid.
You gotta figure, Lion-O was “one of them” before the trip… assuming they’re siblings (not sure if they said), Lion-O could have been a potential mate for Kit, if they were all allowed to grow up together. So with him being aged up all of a sudden, it’s like he’s still their bro/friend/playmate/peer/whatever but now he’s kind of like their king (“Lord of the ThunderCats”) they wanna help him get better. And of course their thing is underhanded/sneaky tactics and devices (kinda like Q in James Bond), they always have a trick up their sleeves.
