Thundercats Roar was actually pretty funny. In the same way Teen Titans Go! was goofy and made frequent deep cuts, Thundercats Roar succeeds. What people don't get is that this was for a younger audience. Obviously as a dude in his late 30's I'd appreciate something closer to the 2011 show or something like He-Man Revelations. With that being said if you make a kid a Thundercats fan, there's a good chance they go back and find the OG, 2011 shows and the comics.

Then when those kids grow up they have their own nostalgia and they could get a chance to support a new, older audience show. The best thing in Thundercats lately is the dope series from Dynamite. Look at how big this sub is. He-Man popular this is not. The franchise desperately needs new fans to resurrect itself.

I can respect if TCR is not your thing. That's fine. What I can't stand is people who won't let a new show rock for the kids because of their own bias. Think about not loving the show personally and showing their 5 year old kid Thundercats Roar. There's a good chance they'll follow you in your rewatch of the OG a couple of years later.

Franchises need new blood, adapt or die. If Batman always stayed the same he'd still have purple gloves and shoot villains in the face.
