    A show to be remembered

    I give you Gargoyles

    One of the best animated shows my eyes have ever graced. Not only was it entertaining, the story was superb as well as unique. It still saddens me that the animated shows on T.V lately are so piss poor with execution. Their all about mindless acts of stupidity. Gargoyles was a show that stood above all of that.

    It was also my real taste of something "Shakespeare" like. I love the fact that even though the series was set in the present time, it had all these references to a lot of Shakespeare.

    The series moved to Disney after its first couple of seasons, which many didn't know. But its greatness still continued. Just like how Disney took "Doug." I still have fond memories of Gargoyles and hold it up high as one of the best animated series conceived.

    Plus anything with Kieth David is a win

      Yes! I remember Gargoyles. another favorite of mine around that time was SWATKATS or however you spelled it.. oh yea you remember them. they built jet fighters out of landfill waste and saved the world everyday. and everyone on the show was a cat.

      not to mention the awesome japanese rock soundtrack they had
      "The Radical Squadron" lol priceless

              Doug was garbage after Disney bought it. End of story.

                  My favorite would have to be Voltron. Lion force or Vehichle force it dont matter. I hear there is a live action movie in the works I hope so.

                      The thing with Gargoyles is that, it was more sophisciated then it needed to be which at the time was epic. The show did alot of thing almost aimed at a more mature audience then the 8 year olds watching the show.

                      And yea, I loved Swat Kats as well, another great show.
