I will never get that part of nerd culture were adults get mad at kids shows for being a kid show, it's like they get mad at the fact that they're no longer the target audience.

Like imagine if kids got mad at let say GOT for not being a child friendly show, most of these types simply refuse to grow up.

At a certain point that audience has to understand that these properties will probably never grow up with them. At best, they'll be rebooted every few years for the next generation of kids.

That's when you move on and 'graduate' to anime, manga, comic books, or novels. I'll probably never watch that new Ninja Turtles cartoon that's out, but I love the IDW comics. And that's OK. The cartoon isn't for me; the comic books are.

what i dont get is who is this supposed to be for? you use the thundercats name, but most of kids today dont know who the thundercats are. so you could have called the series anything. theres no movie attached to it, so theres no broad appeal reach with that. it almost feels like its done with a mocking tone

I'm not talking about tone, it's always been a kid's show. I'm 40 I watched the original growing up. My point is the lazy drawing and even writing. If I never heard of thundercats it wouldn't been a problem.

i dont disagree with you. i just dont understand why you would use thundercats unless you were trying to appeal to an older audience who watched thundercats. its not like batman whos always been around, or like mentioned the new turtles series that came on the tail end of the previous one, but outside of a failed reboot years ago, thundercats has been dormant as hell. it would be like doing the same with tigersharks or silverhawks. or something long dead like cowboys of moo mesa.
