Thundercats cancelled?

Daniel Norton on his FB page!

If I may, I think I might have a possible explanation for the absence of Thundercats on the up front list based on what I could find elsewhere.

Basically, it’s probably not there because season 2 isn’t expected to air until 2013. All the shows listed are for 2012, so that’s why it isn’t there. Apparently, CN upfronts always omit shows that don’t have new episodes scheduled for that year. So that doesn’t mean it’s cancelled, just that there are no new episodes set to debut.

Those announcements were for shows for 2012-2013.

That new FB posting should tell you all you need to know. I knew things were bad when I spoke with Andrea Romano last month.

Wolverine and The X-Men got a second season ordered. Design work was done and scripts were written but it was never put into principal production. The second season never materialized.

This show and toyline are over.

In light of these rumors, I’ve decided to step up my game. I’m no toy collector, but this is one of the only shows that got me to by an action figure. I just ordered a few more to show my support for this franchise. I also plan on buying the full season on DVD once a box set becomes available.

I really hope that ThunderCats isn’t cancelled, and I don’t think we should jump to any conclusions just yet. But I’ll do what I can to keep this series going, and the best way to do that is by buying the merchandise. Strong DVD sales have brought other shows back from the grave, so let’s try to keep this one out of the grave. It’s up to us, the fans, to make sure ThunderCats stays alive.

If for no other reason that we have something to complain about! :thumbsup:

Is there a chance the show is not continuing on Cartoon Network because it’s moving to another station?

With all the bad scheduling, huge gaps and ridiculously precise running time limitation (they didn’t let them make a proper opening sequence), I think there’s a strong possibility that the show will continue somewhere else.

If that’s the case, I wish that the toyline also changes manufacturers but I guess I’m hoping for too much :stuck_out_tongue:

A strong fanbase is what’s going to keep ThunderCats alive for another season. :3

I dont wanna be a douche but i think you deserve a ban. You jump around in different forums, different threads and pretty much posts the same thing, that the show is “over”.

The DVDs are not even out yet. Much of the episodes has not even aired, the chance they already have decided to cancel the show without so many episodes airing and cause of the DVDs is highly unlikely.

I to will try to buy the DVDs even though i probably can’t even watch them on my DVD as i am from Europe. This show is great so far and the lore and everything can be used for so many stories and many many episodes.

THUNDERCATS, HO!

The DVD of the first 8 episodes is out. Over half of the 26 episodes they’ve made have aired.

It’s not unlikely at all actually. It’s gone this way before for other shows, one in particular called SYM-BIONIC TITAN. The process is resembling this much the same here.

I’m sorry you are upset Rizefall. But I’m not trying to take away your cereal. I’m an animation reporter and it is my business to know this.

Rizefall, NO NEW TOYS WERE AT TOY FAIR. Power Ranger Samurai had new toys. Ben 10 had new toys. Thundercats had no new toys to show for later in the year. Why is this?

Oh, I sincerely hope it does move to the CW network. That way, I’ll be able to see every new episode! :thumbsup:

Merged Post:
If you say you’re an animation reporter, do you write for any magazines or online sites so we may read your articles?

Yeah there is no way if it gets dropped by CN it will move to CW. That would never happen in a million years.

saying “over half” is kinda dumb as only ONE of the other half has been shown so far.

Yet again you claim you know stuff but can’t give any sources, that’s how good of a reporter you are.

Yet again about the toys i dont know as i’m not even intrested in them.

This again is my last post for you. I’ve never seen a fan or someone come her and try to ruin it for everybody more then you. IF you wanna post SO MUCH about how the show is dead, over etc then SHOW US YOUR PROOF. As with your discussion with the admin nothing of all of this is Official yet, until they tell us something it’s all speculation. The way you type around about it so much it almost feels like you WANT the show to be over.

His name should have been a dead giveaway for you, this guy’s a troll.

Here’s my source:

Cartoon Network 2012 Upfronts.

http://www.toplessrobot.com/2012/03/looks_like_the_thundercats_have_been_sent_back_to.php

Report from the upfronts from Topless Robot. A network is almost never going to come out and say the show is cancelled.

Of course i did not expect anything else, and i’m not denying the fact the show is in danger. The way he jumps around in EVERY thread and post the same thing “it’s over” is just annoying and he’s being disrespectful for us who like the show and want it to go on.

If i admin position he would have been out of here long ago, not forever of course. I just hope the admins text him about how he behaves.

As has been said before that’s hardly proof. Shows have been missing from Upfronts before and continued still.

and yeah he’s been spouting that stuff ever since toyfair. Nevermind the fact that new toys were released like a month just before toyfair.

And claiming that cancellations are never officially announced, which just plain isn’t true.

Yes it is. Was Sym-bionic Titan’s cancellation ever officially announced? Nope.

Oh, cause that this ONE TIME you mention is the answer to everything? Please…

I’m quite convinced that other shows has had the same fate. But just cause ONE GIRL is a douche to me, does not mean everyone will be right?
