ThunderCats Roar

ThunderCats Roar is an American animated television series produced by Warner Bros. Animation for Cartoon Network that premiered on February 22, 2020 and ended on December 5th in the same year. It is the third television series in the ThunderCats franchise after the original series and the 2011 television series. It is Jules Bass's first solo work without his partner Arthur Rankin Jr., who died on January 30, 2014. The show's premise is similar to the original series; in which the ThunderCats escape their dying homeworld Thundera, crash land on Third Earth, and face off against various villains lead by the evil overlord, Mumm-Ra. ThunderCats Roar sports a more lighthearted, comedic tone than previous incarnations.
