Hi, wondering if anyone else here likes (Or used to like) SWAT Kats. Razor/Jake Clawson was always my favorite of the two, he was the one who invented the gadgets and launched the missiles. Then there was T-Bone/Chance Furlong who piloted the TurboKat jet. Then there were bad guys like Dark Kat, The Pastmaster, the Metallikats and my personal fave baddie on the show, Doctor Viper. T-Bone and Razor protected the city, Callie Briggs and Mayor Manx from these bad guys and then of course, there were those lame enforcers. Commander Feral was such a jerk and hardly had anything nice to say about the SWAT Kats. Who else remembers this show?

Hahahaha.. I remember that show. Didn't they cruise around in like a gigantic zord or something? Or was it just some kind of airship?

It was a jet called the TurboKat. Man, did it have some cool missles. I really liked the scrambler, slicer and match-head missiles the thing fired.

Wasn't it two cats? Man, I'm trying really hard to remember more details. I used to watch that show all the time. Razor was the thin one, right? I remember one episode where they were down in the sewers to find some kid with magic powers or something.

When I think of that show, it reminds me of a show I think they had on right before it at one point called like the new adventures of Godzilla. "Godzilla! Godzilla! And Gadzoooookeeeeee...."

Actually, it was probably the Pastmaster they were looking for. The Pastmaster is a midget villain who can manipulate time but he probably looked like a kid to you. Usually when sewers are involved, it's the work of Dr.Viper (Viper's specialty is mutant plants/animals/polluted swampland). If you need a memory refresher, look it up on YouTube. You won't be dissappointed, trust me on that!

Dr. Viper and Dark Kat were my faves.

Nope. It wasn't yet but there are bootleg DVDs occasionally popping up here and there.

I remember that show. Haven't seen it in ages and don't really want to see it again, honestly, but I liked it then.

I've seen a lot of cartoons in my lifetime and I probaby watched SWAT Kats too, because it seems like the kind of thing I would've watched.
