Ulysses 31, Jason and the Wheeled Warriors, Cities of Gold etc were all of their time stylistically speaking, so it's good to see that they have freshened up the look of the old ThunderCats show. I think it will be a success for CN because the concept for the original show was fairly original and it's still quite distinctive.
Occasionally the animation looks a little clunky, 2d animation is very labour intensive and I might be wrong but I think you can spot the scenes that have had more time invested by the storyboard and layout artists and consequently these are more consistent with quality usually achieved by the 'Manga' studio look they are going for. Saying that it was also noticeable on the original, the title sequence animation was superior in quality (not specifically frame rate but actual composition, anatomy / dynamic movement and more interesting 'camera' work) than the animation during the show, I imagine quite a bit of time was spent getting that title sequence to look right as it's what effectively sells the show to the viewer.

Cheetara is in my top ten of all time female cartoon characters that I'd sleep with...
Cities of gold was superb
The Real Ghostbusters was way ahead of its time - very satirical and funny...
I'd happily see a remake of these! even at 38!
Mumra the ever living reminds me of the mother in law
