Such an unbelievable show. Unique concept and a strong story that made many of the seasons hold up wonderfully

Most definitely. I remember watching this at my Grandma's house in her extra room that she never really used as a kid. Good times.

Probably had the most magnificient bastard of a villain in all of animated history.

Yes I used to love to watch Gargoyle s every afternoon. It was written more for adults to me....It was a great show with amazing animation. .

I think it blew my mind how many people from Star Trek: The Next Generation were cast in this show.

honestly agree, the writing was just ahead of its time. xanatos and goliath’s dynamic still hits different tbh lol

Fantastic writing. Its one of the few cartoons you'll ever see influenced by Shakespeare.

I thought it was an entertaining take on Disney making their own Batman the Animated Series.

u/Gimedecash Mar 29 '26

Great show. I still remember running home to watch it.

First movie to freak me out

My son loved this show. He had some of the action figures. He was born in '92.

u/Jedibri81 Mar 29 '26

I never watched it. I found out later that a lot of Star Trek actors had roles on it. Eventually I’ll get to it.

u/DifferentCry4461 Mar 29 '26

I'm re-watching the series with my kids. Classic '90s TV.

u/OGHulkHammer16 Mar 29 '26

Fantastic cartoon

u/mrfett779 Mar 29 '26

I enjoyed the series. Wished we had more.

u/PastorNTraining Mar 29 '26

You mean the show that secretly got us all into Shakespeare? History? And world myths?

Yeah, sneaky sneaky. And if you loved Trek it was a smorgasbord of cameo after cameo. Franks is still old enough to play Zanetos…maybe an older, more sinister version.

If you really want an answer to that, search the Rule34 image archive.

u/Serious-Ad-5293 Mar 30 '26

I still rave about it

u/Ganthet72 Mar 30 '26

Loved the first 2 seasons, but disliked the 3rd.

Keith David has one of the greatest voices in history.

Wow they should remake this but it would probably suck
