ThunderCats
“Lion-O , what are you doing? Snarf, snarf.”
“Oh, hey uh... you wanna go get wasted?”
“For the last f*cking time, my name is NOT Lionel.”
Thundercats was a fictional television show first mentioned in L. Ron Hubbard's first letter to the Corinthians. Anybody who tells you they remember this show are deceived by Tom Cruise's lies, and should be eliminated. A group of furry misfits who were previously employed by Noel Coward and then ∩, holds the world title for most phrases out of context. Some claim these too number even more so than of Oscar Wilde. Their primary concern is nothing but the resurrection of Mumm-Ra - The Ever LIVINNNG! . On another note all thunderians suffer from a disease called lackofnipplosis where their nipples drop off after birth (shown in the very first episode).
The cartoon ThunderCats is a sequel to the low-budget movie smash-hit musical, Cats.
The ThunderCats[edit | edit source]
Hailing from the doomed planet of Krypton, (thundera Wasn't it?? -EFX) these malicious warriors came upon Third Earth, intent of sapping it of its resources and making it their domain, thus clashing with Mumm-Ra. Though appearing at first to be friendly and good natured, their sinister purpose was soon revealed. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Lion-O[edit | edit source]
The Lord and Generalissimo, he wields the Sword of Omens, a mystical, rock hard, rigid, powerful sword of great strength, capable of growing three times its size. It has been revered for centuries by the Thunderians. Lion-O swears he isn't making up for anything.
Panthro[edit | edit source]
His mechanical wizardry and engineering expertise knows no bounds, and neither does his masochist addiction to Tygra's whip. His tanks are specially designed to grow many times their original size and subjugate the populace. Brave men have been known to tremble before him. The gaudy, yet foreboding, castle he made allows them to be revered by the same peoples they terrorize. He better not catch you standing up peeing. Recently, it has been revealed that Panthro is a mutant offspring of black people, especially Bill Cosby... Zip zop, bobbedity bop!
Tygra[edit | edit source]
The bondage queen of the ThunderCats, his bolo whip, which grow many times its original size, allows him to beat the meat of any of the puny Third Earth natives, such as the Berbils, who in turn sided with the ThunderCats out of fear for their very safety. He's also a sadist who often refuses to grant Panthro's desires for his bolo whip.
Cheetara[edit | edit source]
One of the two women of the team, being that they're apparently in short supply on Krypton(thundera dammit!), she is the intelligence expert of the ThunderCats. Her specialty weapon is the staff, also capable of growing many times its size. She claims she isn't hiding anything, yet none of the male ThunderCats seem interested in dating her.
Wily-Kat[edit | edit source]
The twin brother of Wily-Kit, he don't do shit.
Wily-Kit[edit | edit source]
The twin sister of Wily-Kat, she don't do shit either. It's well known within the ranks that despite her age she has slept with every member, EVERY MEMBER.
Lynx-O[edit | edit source]
Old, blind bastard. Serves virtually no purpose other than hanging out headquarters and boring the others with anecdotes and smelling like urine and Ben-Gay. His weapon is no longer capable of growing many times it's original size.
Testicular[edit | edit source]
The ThunderCat nobody really talks about...
Pumyra[edit | edit source]
The only confirmed ThunderBroad. Routinely sold and traded amongst the male ThunderCats for cigarettes, being fresh meat, and all. Definitely female, she has no need to prove her masculinity with a weapon, yet is known to help the other Cat's weapons grow many times their original size.
Bengali[edit | edit source]
A blacksmith, he serves as Panthro's right hand, and sometimes his left on those lonely nights, but it's really more of a power based, prison-like relationship. It's his constant supply of viagra bought off the internet that allows the ThunderCats weapons to grow many times their original size.
Jaga[edit | edit source]
Obi-Wan Kenobi. Seriously.
Snarf[edit | edit source]
Servant to Lion-O, he's an extremely annoying, yellow-bellied pussy. Kept around because his meek cowardice amuses Lion-O. Snarf is a distant relative of Snaf. Also has stiff competition with Pikachu, because we said so!
Snarfer[edit | edit source]
ALSO KNOWN AS TALON MICHAEL JAMES.
Snaf[edit | edit source]
Snarfs evil-twin pillow
Smurfette[edit | edit source]
TALONS BAD SIDE!!!
Oscar Wildcat-O[edit | edit source]
Oscar Wilde was a member of the ThunderCats for a brief time, joining them when he discovered a note from his father, Obi-Wan Kenobi, asking to take part in their quest for Mumm-Ra, but unfortunately, he was about to start his popular musical career. Speculation on his and Cheetara's mysterious relationship is talked about even to this day. Some say that his title track on the Big Bottm'd Boys' Once Twice, Three Times a Leopard Cat Woman is a reference to the relationship.
Bagpuss-O[edit | edit source]
Granted the moniker "The Mighty Stripey Beast" upon vanquishing the oppressive Estonian Bat-peoples when they threatened to hurl guava and pebbles at Splinter, the mentor and plumber of the Thundercats. Bagpuss-O was never allowed to have a weapon as he was the bitch and had to share with the other Thundercats.
Hello Kitty[edit | edit source]
Hello Kitty joined the Thundercats on a dare after a binge heroin experience with Wily-Kit. Though Wily-Kit chose to be sexed in to the gang, Hello Kitty earned the extra respect of being jumped in.
Garfield[edit | edit source]
Lasgna eating Obese Orange Cat, often confused with Snarf. Was Huffed by Mummra who was fucked up good. (see Kitten Huffing) because the Orange Ones Fuck you Up Good!
Ren & Stimpy - O?[edit | edit source]
Introduced in the last episodes of the last ever series as an incredible way of using malevolent animated violence, rape and abuse to bring the end of the Thundercats universe. Was never aired due to the increasing suspicion that Ren was just a nazi mosquito and Stimpy a gimp.
Peter Criss[edit | edit source]
Shortly after their arrival on 3rd Earth, Peter Criss left the group due to creative differences.
Nostalgia Critic[edit | edit source]
This short-tempered bastard is the main reason the Thundercats existed in the first place... And because we like him! Despite the fact that people say he isn't as useful as WilyKit and WilyKat, the Nostalgia Critic wouldn't give a shit or two about it, whilst making long-winded rants about Total Drama Island and how horrible the show is, in terms of writing and animation. He hates to be called Doug and has a deep, dark and overly retard-esque nature with The Angry Video Game Nerd. NC is infamously known for the following catchphrase: "GIMME A FACE, YA FUCKIN' BUNGHOLES!!!!!!!!"
Opponents[edit | edit source]
It wasn't all posturing on the castle wall and tight, oh so tight, spandex thongs for the Thundercats, not only where they busy oppressing the idiot monkey-people of the Third Earth, there were a group of vailant resistance fighters who sook seekeed tried to foil their plans.
Muff-Ra[edit | edit source]
Muff-Ra, or The Ancient One, or The Ever LIVIIIINNNG was one of Third Earth's native inhabitants, along with other such luminaries as the Berbils. This when the nefarious Thundercats arrived, claiming to be benevolent beings.
They immediately clashed, coming to blows over the lands of Third Earth when Muff-Ra objected to their presence. Thus, the ThunderCats unleashed their fury, quickly gaining many allies in the process, mainly out of fear of the ThunderCats.
He got laid by talon michael james on national AIDS day.
Ma-Mutt[edit | edit source]
Though many Ma-Mutts have existed, a number of them having been killed by the ThunderCats' oppressive Thunder Tanks, they have proven to be a lifelong natural adversary of the ThunderCats. One past Ma-Mutt is thought to have been comprised of Stedman Graham and a dead bulldog. Stedman had refused to marry Oprah time and time again, due to her objection to letting a playa play. Finally, he was imprisoned, but escaped from New York in spectacular fashion.
Eventually, fearing for his life due to a curse on his soul and a bounty on his head, as published in the propaganda magazine O, he came across Mumm-Ra. The Ancient One then took him in and agreed to put him in hiding as one of the Ma-Mutts.
However, he was eventually captured and killed, and a new Ma-Mutt took his place, thought to a mix of a captured Snarfer and a dachshund found in an alley.
The Mutants[edit | edit source]
Of great concern for the ThunderCats are The Mutants, a band of crafty, in no way stupid, bungling warriors who have hounded the ThunderCats ever since they escaped from their home planet. Routinely in the employ of Mumm-Ra, they typically consist of Slythe, Monkian, Spiderman, Jackalman, Vultureman, Batman, The Blob, Toad, and Avalanche, and all those other mutants who weren't cool enough to be X-men.
The Berserkers[edit | edit source]
A shady band of greedy missionaries (and no, we did not mean mercenaries) who in their early years gave up their children and their genitals to Muff-Ra in exchange for mechanical arms, legs, pelvises, etc. With these metal anatomical weapons, they rove the seas virtually unchallenged, searching for people to castrate. To remain consistent with their career title, they leave Gideon Bibles in their victim's ball-free underwear, all the while chanting "Jesus loves you anywaaaay". The gang is led by the infamous Captain Hammerhand.
Captain Hammerhand[edit | edit source]
The leader of the Berserkers, this crafty charlatan, in addition to owning a metal arm, is eqipped with some GIGANTIC metal man-junk (often referred to by his crew as "Real Pirate Junk" or "The Vaj-Shatter"). With this impressive mechanical combo, the Captain never ceases to amaze his men with the fourth-of-July-esk shower of sparks that result from his attempt to compensate for his lack of sexual action on the open seas. Being a pirate is tough, matey.
Adolf Hitler[edit | edit source]
The Chancellor of Germany, who wanted to exterminate the Thundercats for being Jewish. On April 30, 1945, Hitler and Lion-o battle each other hand-to-hand in Berlin. The winner of the battle was left up to the audience......They chose Hitler
The 1990's[edit | edit source]
Lawlessnes, over-indulgence and ego-trippin' from the previous decade, the 90's prove to be down fall of all the Thundercats (and everyone one 3rd earth). Never to be scene again until years later with cameo appearances on Robot Chicken.
Kaptainskye[edit | edit source]
Sick and tired of his usual business of sending catgirls to his many death camps across the universe, Kaptainskye one day decided that he wanted to go for some bigger game- bigger game with incredibly large muscles and huge-ass swords. One of the most terrifying villains the Thundercats have faced thus far, he was finally vanquished when he got bored and left.
The Angry Video Game Nerd[edit | edit source]
Muff-Ra once kidnapped a gay little kid, who at the time received his first Super Nintendo, because the former realized that this magical device would be capable of killing off the Thundercats. With his shit pie, Muff-Ra turned this little boy into The Angry Video Game Nerd, who has a tendency to rather have a buffalo take a diarrhea dump in his ear than anything else. In secret, AVGN has a very small penis that is as powerful as Barack Obama's constant usage of bitching... In other words, IT'S OVER 9,000!!!!!!!!!
Third Earth[edit | edit source]
Third Earth is filled with stuff. Like... think of a thing. Not that. Make it something fantasy or sci-fi esque. There you go - either that thing exists somewhere on Third Earth or (alternatively) it exists on board a space ship that is going to crash land on Third Earth. Unless you were actually thinking of a space ship, in which case, it's going to crash land on Third Earth.
This genius 'Everything' world-design makes writing Thundercats a total cinch - no need for characterisation or plot, just have the cats stumble over some ill-thought out bizzaro shit each episode. They can then spend the first half of the episode working out what the hell they're dealing with, and the second half either beating it up or befriending it. Often both. Easy. Next!

The Battle for Third Earth[edit | edit source]
As The GI Joe-Transformers War raged on, another war was brewing, that of the Thunderians and rogue Third Earthians versus Mumm-Ra and his allies. Attempts at diplomacy were a failure, thus war was brought. Though discussions of an alliance with the parties in The GI Joe-Transformers War was bandied about on all sides, no one really wanted to be associated with furries.
Thundercats: Sci-Fi or Fantasy?[edit | edit source]
Over the many years that Thundercats has been aired across our television screens, a war has raged between two factions of its greatest fans- those who declare the series fantasy, and those who object to previously stated and call it a science fiction story. The war has been going on ever since the first episode was released, and has not stopped since. Both sides of this great battle have a backing to their claim, leaving the two sides locked in a hopeless stalemate.
It's Sci-Fi![edit | edit source]
Third Earth, the planet on which the story takes place, has many strange technologies, some of which are more powerful than what we've got here on First Earth. For one, they seem to have Arwings, huge tanks, and laser cannons; not to mention robotic bears. They've also got floating cities and the like.
It's Fantasy![edit | edit source]
But yet, even with all these technologies, the Thundercats run into battle with armor and swords. Why? You'd think that Lion-O should be using a lightsaber, or at least a decent laser gun. But no. It is also notable that these cat people also build their houses in the style of the Middle Ages, when they should be well on their way to building this, or perhaps even this. All their power is drawn from "mystic stones", and they talk about a good bow and arrow like it's the latest technological advancement. All this while they've got frickin' Arwings.
Could it perhaps be... both?[edit | edit source]
The truth is, in fact, that Thundercats is actually a well-blended mix of sci-fi and fantasy, similar to SuperSkye (which also involved a planet called Third Earth). Were the warring parties to simply acknowledge this, there would be no war. But, unfortunately, they will not. They will never acknowledge this.
Is it anime?[edit | edit source]
Yet another war between Thundercats-oriented opinions is the question as to whether Thundercats is a true anime. However, no one really cares about this. People only have this kind of a discussion about Avatar: The Last Airbender, because it's American.
Samoflange[edit | edit source]
No one knows what the fuck it is yet. Some think it to be a secret doomsday weapon created by the ThunderCats utilizing Kryptonian (ok, let's do this once more: Thu-N-dera, come on, everyone say it with me!) techonology in an attempt to turn the war, while skeptics think it to be complete bull. A new theory is that it is a device that will open a portal to the World of Warcraft, hence every inhabitant of Azeroth seeks to disable the Samoflange to keep the ThunderCats from allying with The Burning Crusade and enslaving them all.
What is known is that you should keep your feet off of it.
