BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
user-18182 I really like the Swat Kats like heck because its related to the air force's F-14 tomcat which Im going to be when I'm older(fighter pilot) also I wonder what would happen if the Master Chief from halo joined the Swat Kats(still human).Then that would be cool also I would be him and also have the F-22a raptor which would blow the swat Kat's minds away!Then it would air again and I would be Yehaaw! Also he would have all the weapons from halo 1 2 and 3 also I would help the swat Kat's a lot! Anyways call me at this # (661)-298-0711 if you really swear to god like the Swat Kats call me around 2:30 to 5:30 if you like my idea and love the swat Kat's. so consider now!
rexshard93 I loved Hanna Barbera cartoons. Swat Kats was one of the excellent shows of Hanna Barbera Productions. Hanna Barbera studio didn't get a chance to finish those unfinished episodes, because of the sudden cancellation. Rough Drawings and other props of Unfinished episodes are still in the Hanna Barbera studio (now at Warner Bros). What I loved about this show was the limitations of the characters. The limitations of the characters gave the show a realistic feel although it takes place in an anthropomorphic world. With Batman in Batman Animated Series, Batman (with or without the support of others) will be able to solve the problem in 22 minutes. That is not the case with SWAT Kats. T-Bone is a great pilot and he knows every detail about flying a plane and he is also an expert in driving cars. But he is not a sureshot like Razor and he doesn't have the experience like Razor does in technologies. Razor knows how to fly the plane. But he is not as good as T-Bone and he doesn't have the experiences like T-Bone has in terms of flying a plane. This is the same thing that can be applied to Callie Briggs. With Callie, she goes out of her way to strongly support SWAT Kats and also save SWAT Kats from danger (Night of the Dark Kat) despite her limitations in fighting. In order to save SWAT Kats, Callie goes to the point where she is willing to marry the villain The Pastmaster (Episode "The Deadly Pyramid"). She also has strong emotional attachment towards SWAT Kats (Katastrophe) which makes her even more specialThrough The Dark Side of the SWAT Kats, we learn that the existence of SWAT Kats also completely depends on Callie. If there are good SWAT Kats, then there will be a Good Callie. And when there are Dark SWAT Kats, then there will also be Dark Callie. This makes her character as important as T-Bone and Razor are.With Commander Feral, He does have the efficient quality of being a commander. But he doesn't use it properly. His corrupt nature drives him to fire a brilliant pilot like Chance and a brilliant sure shot like Jake and he lets a corrupt Lieutenant like Steele be in charge when he is not around. This drives Megakat city to extreme level of danger. With his niece Felina Feral, She is a great fighter. She also helps SWAT Kats in their investigations. But I feel that Callie is stronger and more interesting than Felina. Felina is like Ann Gora of Kats Eye News. Ann Gora is truly dedicated to her job - an honest reporter at Kats Eye News. That is the same case with Felina who is also truly dedicated to her job - honest, brave, and hard working lieutenant. But not more than that. With Callie, She can also stand and strongly oppose against Feral for his opposition against SWAT Kats (Episode "Metal Urgency"). But with Felina, she can only persuade her Uncle Feral that SWAT Kats are good (Episode "Razor's Edge"). Despite the limited appearances, Dr. Aby Sinian (played by Linda Gary) is a strong supporting character. Despite his laziness, Mayor Manx allows Callie Briggs to run the city properly. This provides Callie Briggs the opportunity to support and save SWAT Kats. The villains in this show are extremely destructive. This makes the show very interesting. Strong villains usually make the stories more interesting. Glenn Leopold's fast paced writing style and Lance Falk's plot twists made the show very interesting to watch. On the top of that, the show has a wonderful animation with Studio Mook animating most of the episodes and some by Han Ho Heung Up and this show also has wonderful music.My personal favourite Swat Kats episode is "A Bright and Shiny Future".Despite its abrupt cancellation, the show is still memorable among many fans and I hope the show will continue to remember among fans as one of the greatest works of art.
SiBiLaNt What an INCREDIBLE show!Too bad only 2 seasons of episodes were made and it was taken off the air for unknown reasons. I guess some people thought it was a little too mature for the audience of cartoon network.I remember when I was 15 or so I used to watch the Swat Kats TWICE a day, EVERY day (that's as often as the episodes were shown). I loved it and I was addicted to it! My heart was broken when I found out they're taking it off.The animation, music, character voices were done incredibly well. The plot was ever - entertaining and written very carefully. It was always solid, never tedious or silly or annoying.Simply put, it was just a pleasure to watch the Swat Kats - from the beginning scene - the awesome episode opener with the incredible background music - to the very end of every episode with the swat kats kicking tail and saving megakat city.I loved everything in it - the cool gadgets, the turbokat (swat kats' airplane), the characters...Well this is getting a bit too long.Just go and see it if you can find it somewhere!
Agent_Smith_v2 This has got to be my favourite cartoon of all time. I had to watch reruns on power zone's midnight run recently, but it was worth staying up for the swat kats.It has great music, cool characters, witty dialogue, lots of action and is just a really slick show overall. The artwork on was very good - right from razor and t-bone to the jet to the whole look of mega-kat city. Mega Kat City was disaster prone, but swat kats managed to be cartoonish and suitable for kids without degenerating into the silliness or stupidity. It never failed to be funny and stylish.I wish I could find it somewhere on DVD to buy.
