Apparently, new episodes are currently being aired in Ireland:
Thundercats are Go!!!! NEW SERIES ANNOUNCED - Page 65 - TFW2005 - The 2005 Boards
Credit: Airspeed
WARNING!!!!! SPOILERS BELOW:
I woke up at 08:45 and my tv was on with Thundercats, I think I only missed the first 5 minutes.
I definitely have never seen any of this stuff before.
[Spoiler] Lion-O was using the new Spirit Stone, and Mum Ra got himself two new generals: "Kaynar and Atticus" (spelling who are a monkey and jackalman respectively) because the Lizards started to desert him.
Panthro got his robot arms from the Berbils
Big fight at the end and the cats only escape when new arms Panthro joins the battle after the generals had the others beaten [/Spoiler]
Is this new ?
Cheetara thanked Tygra for watching her back in the fight just before Tygra says somthing along the lines of "It is a nice back to watch" and the kids did not want to hear that.
Then later Lion-O confronts Cheetara over all the times previously where she appeared to be getting closer to him and she reveals that Jaga asked her to look out for and help Lion-O, but that she does care about Lion-O, just as a close friend. Lion-O storms off to fight some lizards alone after this.
Which is where the big fight with the new generals happens, first Tygra and cheetara arrive, telling Lion-O they can't let him do it alone.
So overall he is not over it by any means.
And A funny moment in the episode was that at first the Berbils gave Panthro tiny Berbils, Furry arms, which he was not happy with. [/Spoiler]
No mention of Grune, though it might have been mentioned at the start of the episode which I missed, I assume the Lizards leaving and new generals are in response to what happened to Grune.
I'm hesitant to believe that. The storyline sounds very plausible, but why would it air in Ireland before it airs here? And they said Kaynar and Atticus is a monkey and jackal respectively, but Kaynar should be the jackal's name, not the monkey's.
Ok I retract my last statement. Seems like these guys are completely legit.
WhyTF did Cartoon Network have to get this show? Why couldn't it have been another channel? Besides, we don't get CN in HD on FIOS anyway. >
I want to know why new Thundercats episodes are being aired over in Ireland while here in America we still have to wait?????
Is there an explanation for this?
I tried posting a question about this over on the CN forums but they won't let me post it. Obviously they are not letting me to keep their fans from getting mad I guess...
I am very disappointed with CN thus far. They have not handled Thundercats well at all. I enjoy shows like Star Wars the Clone Wars and I really like some of the Adult Swim shows.
So when will the new ones come out? I seen posts say Jan. but that month has come and gone. Now we are 1/2 way through Feb. I check CN's up coming shows and there are NO Thundercats listed. I seen posts saying March. I doubt it by the way things have been going. My guess is they will start airing new ones in May or June at the earliest. Or at least until their new show "Level Up" is done with it's season.
I hope I am wrong...
Yep, I was reading Airspeed's posts on TFW and wondered the same thing...seems they aired in Ireland without much fanfare at all...have been checking here and CN to see if they are posting a new episode airdate list..but no luck so far.
When do those DVD's hit the market??? JUNE?? Dang.. Maybe we can see these latest 3 eps then.

Name correction btw guys. I've been informed Monkian's name is Addicus, not Atticus.
It's a minor difference, but that kinda sucks...Ruins any sort of reference to the philosopher Atticus (which created irony due to Monkian's OS personality). Best I can find for Addicus is a book store and an iPhone adding game...
I seriously need to see these new episodes. I love this show as does my wife. F U CN.
I'm looking forward to a Kaynar figure myself. He looks pretty badass and crazy.
Separated these out into their own discussion.
So somebody has to put these new episodes up on the web right? Any news or thoughts on where we can see them?
Unbelievable that new episode have aired Ireland instead of here in US. I'm glad that Lion-O confronted Cheetara about their relationship and that he isn't over it. I hope Lion-O does take on the Generals alone or else it wouldn't be his trials alone.
As expected, Panthro got new arms by the Berbils. I have this feeling that if Panthro retires, he may reside in the Berbil village.
Like I said, Lion-O got the crown while Tygra got the girl.
I'm hopeful that the episodes airing in Ireland means that it won't be too much longer till we start getting new one's here in the US too. As for the story, I'm trying not to think too much about it till I can actually watch the new episodes. Reading about something and watching it are two completely different experiences, and since we still haven't heard anything about episode 14's story, some of 15's could be interpreted out of context.
I've just searched for Thundercats on the iOS Sky planner app, and they currently have two separate sets listings: "Thundercats" and "New Thundercats." Unfortunately, neither have individual plot synopses, just a generic description of the show, which is the same for both, and both have an image of the 2011 series.
Anyways, "New Thundercats" airs at 10 am on Friday for an hour on Cartoon Network (ch. 601 on Sky), so I'm hoping that means they're the new episodes! I've set the Sky+ just incase!
When are the new episodes gonig to arrive in US! I CANT WAIT!!
What the actual fuck, CN!?
To the bay of the pirates I go...
Nobody does scheduling like you CN.
Love the American fan rage over this. It's similar to what happened on TFW2005 when we in the UK got "Prime" toys a couple of weeks before the US.
Give us a break! You in America get all the stuff first 99% of the time... I say, good for Ireland! Trouble is, at 8.45am, I doubt anyone was watching!
Here's hoping new Thundercats episode begin here in the UK v.v.v.soon!
Well, this sucks. But these better be coming soon. And yeah, Monkian, soory Addicus, looks good.

Most of us have no idea when it's coming back. And it's disheartening and frustrating to find out that it's been released somewhere we can't see it after having waited so long with absolutely no news.

This reminds me of when Batman: The Brave and the Bold was absent on CN for months with it finishing airing in the UK and Australia before the US. Cartoon Network does this kind of thing and it doesn't surprise me anymore. I DO wish we'd get an airdate, though.
If this is anything like Brave and the Bold though, you might get the episodes posted on itunes before they air on TV.
Yep we'll have heard what's going to happen in all the coming episodes before CN even airs them.

Sadly though, yeah, I have not found episdoe 14 yet. I'll let you guys know when I do.
man it seems like ive been waiting forever for these episodes....Curse you CN for making us wait so long.....i guess ill just wait for the dvd....[sigh]

I think the episodes are being shown over there because its currently half term/ school holday time in the uk and ireland. similar to them running the entire season one on channel five (uk) everyday during the xmas break.while on SKy/CN its expected to air new episodes weekly. was it being shown in ireland at that time? i dont think it was so its catch up time for them for at least a couple more episodes before schools back. Then with all international broadcasting commitments having been met the real season 2 should begin for the rest of us. hopefully.
If this is anything like Brave and the Bold though, you might get the episodes posted on itunes before they air on TV.
"I have a bad feeling about this."
I am thinking my rant about episode 14 not being released in America until June might not be far off. I ran a search in iTunes for E14 and nothing. I am guessing it will show up around when the dvd shows up...
Again I must express how I am very disappointed with Cartoon Network...
It's definitely coming back WAYYYY before June. Hold on for some news late tonight or early tomorrow
EDIT: Well...looks like my hands have been tied. Sorry guys...but I really wanted to hype the return. Guess We'll just have to keep waiting because I don't want to get anyone in trouble. Soon though folks, soon!
Was just over reading some of the CN forums and fans there are saying that we get a new episode here March 2nd??? Anybody else finding any truth to that statement??? Or is some fan wish???
That date is wrong.
Toonzone.net are reporting that the next two episodes (New Alliances/Trials of Lion-O, Pt. 1) will air in the US on Saturday 24th & Saturday 31st March, respectively.
Saw the other thread for the announcement!! Hallelujah!!
Come on, irish fans... don't tell me no-one recorded the episodes?
When TF Animated aired all the season 3 episodes in advance in Australia, they were up for download in 2 days...
