[[wysiwyg_imageupload:780:]]Season Two of the Thundercats will return to Cartoon Network in an all new time at 9:30 am on Saturday March 24th.

And judging by the episode description for “New Alliances,” the Thundercats are let loose on the Lizard army!

We also get a spoiler of sorts in regards to Panthro, but nothing we didn’t all see coming. Last we saw of Panthro, he lost his arms battling Grune!

Speaking of last time, it will have been four months since the last episode. November 25th saw episode 13, “Between Brothers,” which was a great one!

The first season of Thundercats aired on Fridays at 8:30pm, with the switch to Saturday mornings it seems as if Cartoon Network may be going for a younger audience. At times, some of the first season episodes were a bit dark and adult, I hope that continues. Actually, I would have preferred more of that.

The second episode description is also revealed, which is spoiler filled as well.

 

THUNDERCATS
Saturdays at 9:30 a.m. (ET, PT)
An epic, all new reimagining of the classic 1980s animated series, ThunderCats tells the story of a hero’s journey to fulfill his ultimate destiny. On Third Earth, the kingdom of Thundera is being threatened by the evil sorcerer Mumm-Ra, and Lion-O, the young heir to the throne, embarks on a great quest to take his rightful place as king. The unlikely champion must work with his faithful comrades Tygra, Cheetara, Panthro, WilyKit, WilyKat, and his loyal pet, Snarf — who join him on his journey — to save their world from darkness. 
 
”¢ Saturday, March 24: “New Alliances” – The Thundercats go on the offensive taking down Mumm-Ra’s lizard army piece by piece. Lion-O appeals to the soldiers to turn against their overlord, but Mumm-Ra won’t see his army crushed so easily. He tasks Slithe with recruiting two new and vicious Generals — Addicus and Kaynar — to retaliate against the cats. Meanwhile, the Robear Berbils make Panthro a new set of robotic arms and soop up the Thundertank.
 
”¢ Saturday, March 31: “The Trials of Lion-O Pt. 1” – Mumm-Ra’s generals ambush and, while the other cats are captured, Lion-O falls to his death. Thanks to the Spirit Stone, he encounters Jaga in the Astral Plane and is given a second chance at life. If he is able to pass a series of trials that pit him against each of his teammates, he can win back his life and save the other cats. First up are Kit and Kat, followed by Cheetara. But the clock is ticking because Mumm-Ra has the Sword of Omens!
