I know the Thundercats cartoon is being shown on Cartoon Network but for those that don't have the channel it's now being shown on terrestrial tv.

Channel 5 will be showing the first 2 episodes (part 1 & part 2) at 10.05am

According to the tv guide for the next 2 weeks, they will be showing an episode a day right up to Christmas Eve & then from Boxing Day to Friday 30th December

Sunday 18th December 10.05am
Monday 19th December - Friday 23rd December (10am slot)
Saturday 24th December 10.20am
Monday 26th December - Friday 30th December (10am slot)

    Damn it! I keep missing it. I didn't realise it had started on Cartoon Network (they don't put a decent description or episode title so I don't know if they have repeated the first episode.) and now I have missed it on Channel 5.

    It's not on my EPG. Might need a retune.

    I've caught bits and pieces of this in the morning, and it is fun decent enough for that time of day. Though the female does have rather large boobs for a children's show.

    Yeah, but do kids actually care about her boobs? Er, no, cause they're kids! Do I, a 29-year-old man who loved the original series, care about Cheetarah's boobs?? Yes, resoundedly so!

    As far as kids go Cheetarah is a brilliant, intelligent, kick-ass heroine and a good role model. :cool:

    Why??

    It was rubbish by comparision to this new re-imagined version.

    I think you might have your childhood rose tinted specs on.

    Is that only on Sundays or will it be on Saturday next week too in place of Batman?

    Looking next week it looks like both Saturday and Sunday - but the episode today is the one after Between Brothers which was the last episode my Sky Planner recorded last Christmas.
