A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

It's DH's bday, and the Boy watches Cartoon Network, so we have had it on the calendar for 2 weeks.

The animation was good, the storyline was true to my childhood memories. I'd say a pretty good reboot.

But it's definitely written for kids -- not a lot of sly grown-up references like you get in a LOT of today's cartoons, which can really be appreciated by adults and kids.

But they hooked DH and me on nostalgia factor, and it was fun. The child liked it a lot.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

but he's obsessed with tigers, lynxes and robots

After watching Archer, Emmett is now convinced he needs an ocelot. Presumably to go with the finger-monkey he's always wanted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Wow, Lion-O has ridiculous hair.

Yes, you may well be getting a Thundercats watch-n-post.

The guy playing the kind is the voice of the original Lion-O.

Okay, I suppose I have to whitefont this:

What is this shit about killing off Panthro? It's gotta be a fakeout, since the guy who seems to have survived is played by Clancy Brown, and he's always a bad guy.

Not since Jon B. went to Theremin Camp has there been such an unabashed display of pure, unapologetic geekery.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

And Noodle has reappeared. The power of the laser dot. No way we are getting the collar back on her, but at least she let us give her the anti-biotics. Neither cat seems to be interested in getting too close to any of the humans.

Dana, did you see the Panthro cabaret performance on Jimmy Fallon's show?

And now Tygra is Lion-O's brother? I am skeptical.

The sword is substantially less phallic than it used to be, so far.
