This is the best animated Justice League (superfriends *SIC*) of all time! Back to the iron they go, delivering a red hot program. Cartoon Network (Part of the AOL/Time/Warner conglomerate. They also own DC Comics.) has all the DC universe, at their disposal. In just the two episodes (so far. 11/19/01) I saw notable DC universe regulars throughout the episodes. (Totally schway!) Many regular green lanterns, Snapper Carr (Original Comic book JLA mascot) and Kanjar-ro appear. You can look forward to Solomon Grundy, Aquaman, Mongul as well as the Demon.(Killer!) Of the returning characters only Batman/Kevin Conroy, Joker/Mark Hamill, and Lex Luthor/Clancy Brown make a Return. Superman (was Tim Dally of "Wings") and the Flash are new voices. There are other notables that will be making appearances *see list. This is one of the best comic based cartoons that I have seen since "Batman the Animated Series". It consists of largely the same team. (They also worked on Superman and Batman Beyond) I have had high expectations since I heard that this was green lighted at the "San Diego comic con" this year. Needless to say, I do not feel disappointed. I hope that this cartoon goes on for some time. It is off to an excellent beginning.

The Hurculoids was one of the most unique creations to come from Hanna-Barbara in the 60's. The Ghost Master Alex Toth brought life to this creation as well. The show was going to be known a Zartan but, CBS legal dept found problems with reworking Tarzan so obviously. Still it remains one of the most original and innovative cartoons to this day. I loved watching when I was a kid. I loved the strange creatures that where good and loyal. I loved the villains they were so strange and interesting. It's a shame that these cartoons don't see much air play any more. Maybe someone will see this and change that?

The Grinch is one of my all time favorites. I love watching it every year.(my only complaint is the ending, I wanted to see him dump it, badly! Just once!) The cast and people who worked on it are just stellar! It has stood the test of time to be a true classic, to which many other shows have had to try to surpass. I love Boris Karloff as the Grinch and the narrator. What can you say about the talent that is Chuck Jones that hasn't already been said? To my surprise, what should I see but June Forray's name attached to this classic. They made no mention of this on TNT's special edition. Dr.Suess is beloved to this day as it well should be. Thul Ravenscroft (singing voice and Tony the tiger) Makes me just want to sing along with him to the great little songs. This is just one of those shows about Christmas you just can't help but love. (especially with all that other stuff crammed down your maw.) This will survive the test of Generations to come. I will never see this show as old.
