Time Squad

[batboy2001]

Cartoon Network has made a new cartoon called Time Squad and it is supposed to air on the 8th along with captain somebody, I forgot his name. Does anyone have anymore info on these shows?

I may try...to see if it is any good.

However if it is on at the same time as the fairly odd parents or Invader Zim I just don't know.

I saw it. Ew. wasn't too impressed. It was better than Sheep. But it's taking up time that IM Weasel could be occupying. Captain Sturdy was interesting. I liked it, but I dunno if it support a whole series. I said the same thing about Johnny Bravo and boy was I wrong!

Same opinion here. The ads are a lot funnier than the actual show.

[as Red] Ah, a fellow Weasel fan--now I can die happy! [chuckles] I agree that TS was better than Sheep, but during the first half I was all, "Okay, what's the point of building a flesh-eating robot in the first place? It seems the words 'flesh' and 'eating' would send up a flare saying 'bad idea, Slick' ". They'd do better resurrecting Freakazoid with new eps. ;D Still, I'll give it another viewing because in a couple of weeks they're doing an ep with Freud, and I have a psychological bent. BTW, is it my imagination or did the big guy in Time Squad sound like Frank Gorshin's version of Yosemite Sam in "From Hare to Eternity"?

Captain Sturdy was interesting. I liked it, but I dunno if it support a whole series.

My fav bit was Political Correctness Man teaching some beefy gorilla of a superhero nonviolent tactics...or the way the superheroes sat and squabbled for hours over how to defeat the villian. An old superhero coming out of retirement was interesting...but the fat guy still dressed up in kiddie tights was just too g.d. scary. It ended too fast, though, and sort of felt rushed and unfinished.

Well, I guess I'm a majority of one on this, but I thought it has potential. Sure, the characters have been overused (especially the 'more muscle than brain' character) but it may work.
Granted, I've only seen the first episode and, as you all know, it don't mean squat until you've seen more.
My main hang-up tho: It DOES run opposite of 'Invader Zim', as well as 'Lone Gunmen', 'Farscape', and starting this fall, 'Dark Angel'. (man, gotta buy me a few more VCR's )
