The Fireballs of Plunn-Darr
That is absolutely correct, Mcaseres! Your turn, sir. 
“Why have you summoned us this time Mumm-Ra?” I wish to teach you a lesson, look!
“The Mountain”?
No, not the mountain.
“The Mumm-Ra Berbil”? That was actually my first guess, but I changed my mind initially!
yes, you are correct. It is The Mumm-Ra Berbil!
OK, which episode starts off with the main catchphrase: “Thunder - thunder - thunder - Thundercats - HO!”
This is driving me crazy. I feel like I’ve seen this recently, but I have no idea which episode it is, and perusing a list has been no help! [emoji852]

Same here! I’ve been wracking my brain trying to figure out which episode it was. Somehow I feel that perhaps it’s one of those 5-parters but I can’t quite put my finger on it.
It’s not a 5-parter.
You guys are so good!
What episode did Slithe and Jackalman perish in according to the animation glitch, but the very next episode they were alive?
:panthro
Your enthusiasm is admirable, and your participation welcome, but you should be aware of two things here:
- You have to someone else’s question correctly before you can pose one of your own
- This thread is specifically asking about first lines from episodes, the general trivia thread is elsewhere
I’m going to go with “Mechanical Plague”*
No, it’s not that episode.
Is it “Excalibur”?

We have a winner!
Yes, it was in Mumm-Ra’s cauldron, he was observing clips of the Sword Of Omens, and the first clip was of the catchphrase - it was evidently the only way they could crowbar it into that episode. There’s some dodgy instances of the catchphrase throughout the series, and some downright gratuitous, but this just takes the biscuit!
Anyway, your turn Wilycub!
Thanks, Liam! Actually the first line spoken in that episode are by Mumm-Ra when he says: “The Eye of Thundera. The Sword of Omens. Lion-O and his wretched sword!”. Then comes the image of Lion-O in the cauldron and the catchphrase. That is why I had such a hard time locating the episode. :00
Anyways, here’s mine:
“Panthro, did you see that? Sure, did. We better try to follow it”.
Ah, sorry, my mistake! Been a while since I last watched season 1.
The answer to your poser though, is “The Crystal Queen”.
No wonder why I got the answers wrong smh lol!
