Though there hasn’t been any official word, it looks like the new ThunderCats animated series has been cancelled.
A reboot of the 1980s ThunderCats TV show, the new series debuted on Cartoon Network last July with the first of 26 installments. The season was broken up into two parts and the finale aired this past Saturday. There’s been no word of plans for a second season.
What’s more, Cartoon Network announced their plans for the 2012-13 season and ThunderCats was noticeably absent from their list of returning series.
Matthew Mercer is the voice actor for Tygra. His girlfriend is actress Mirisha Ray and she believes that the show has been cancelled so she’s started a website to rally support.
While ThunderCats hasn’t been officially cancelled yet, the signs certainly don’t look positive. When/if we hear something definitive, we’ll be sure to let you know.
What do you think? Has ThunderCats been cancelled or will the show return for a second season? If it has ended, will you miss the series?
bring the thundercats back, i ve watched the original seies when i was a kid. this version is fresh and the changes are cool and upbeat. my kid loved this series. so bring it back.
I love the story line and how it was going its sad to hear they going to cancel the show I started to watch cartoon again hope they don’t cancel the show
Great show. Keep it on the air.
Like another user said, I never watched the 80s version of the Thundercats because I wasn’t born but I have seen lots of screencaps and pictures and for it’s time, I think it was pretty cool. But I will say I did like the 2011 remake. I think that the storyline was simple but nice at the same time. And I agree, it was full of character development like Lion-O learning from the Drifter or how he had to recover from the rejection of Cheetara as she chose Tygra over him. Also for Tygra, I loved how they shed light… Read more »
That really suck I liked the new story line
How sad is this? Crap shows like ”Regular Show” and ”Adventure Time” get more episodes and better time slots and even more advertisement than Thundercats. What’s worse is that those stupid shows I mentioned aren’t even FULL episodes! Just a stupid 12 minute segment that involves some stupid reference to some hipsters dull and un fulfilling life!
After going to Comic Con, I saw what kind of idiots like Adventure Time and Regular Show and they all looked like mindless zombies with little to no common sense.
I Love Thundercat
I Like To Watch New Episodes
Plzz On Air More Episodes
I love this new series of thundercats I hope they don’t cancelled I would be very upset
Never watched the original series back in the 80’s because I wasn’t even born yet. I did watch a few episodes back when it aired on Toonami though. In all honesty, those few episodes i watched from the 80’s were light years ahead of the new series as far as character development, writing quality, and overall story quality. It just seems that the men and women who worked on the original series had a better idea what the series was and where it would go, had a better idea about the characters and villians…it just seems like the guys in… Read more »
The new show is amazing. Character development? What about Lion-O actually LEARING through the show. What about what happened to Panthro. There was all kinds of character development. The original show, while still fun, was simply kid’s stuff, and nothing more.
Totally agree. The original series was like all others, great back then, but with no depth. Basically 7 Thundercats living alone, minding their own business in a “castle” and bad guys in another castle trying to destroy them and take over the world.
The new series had great storytelling, political elements and real character development, along some great almost stand alone episodes like The Drifter and the Duelist. So sad to see it cancelled.
I like this new series of Thundercats. It has a simple but yet good storyline and the animations are great.I strongly disagree the cancellation of this series : ( . I surely will miss it if they do cancel it. T_T
Despite the atroucious way the series was marketed and handled, let’s admit, that split right when stuff was getting good was a bad idea, and a few missed episodes that barely contributed to the bigger picture, the show is good. Sure, die-hard fans of the original will hate it no matter what. I loved the original and i loved this new take. Were not in the 80’s anymore, where any plot, no matter how stupid, is enough to entertain. Though it missed in a couple points overall this was getting good. So i do hope it gets back. If not,… Read more »
They shouldn’t cancel it. This is the only show i watch on Cartoon Network. Nothing else is good enough to watch..
They shouldn’t end it the way they did, I would like to see more episodes.
That would really suck if they cancel thundercats I liked it my family liked it. What’s wrong with tv today. You can keep a retarded show like sponge bob but not thundercats.
I agree I love thundercats I loved the new story line why would it be canceled it was a classic the should make a season 2
I want the old story line
