Yeah, I really like 'em. I've been watching cartoons forever and there
aren't that many good ones on where the characters have actual personalities.
SWATKATS went through a lot of trouble to make sure the show respected
its audience, and didn't cheap out believing it was "just a bunch of dumb
kids watching". A lot of that has to do with the people who created the
show; they're like me, and probably a lot of us - "big kids" who don't
have a lot of use for what everyone else seems to adore, like "Melrose
Place". The problem here is that Ted Turner, who fired the people who
made the show, doesn't respect all us guys watching and lies to cover his
tracks - what an example to set for the kids who watch the show. How
many people want to grow up to be like Razor and T-Bone? How many want
to grow up to be like Ted Turner? Nuff Said.

By the way, I think the only battlefield the X-Men can trash the
SWATKATS right now is the Neilsens. (sorry, "in-joke" Matthew, e-mail me
and I'll explain it if you don't get it).
