      Gargoyles was one of those major elements of my childhood. I was born in December 1993, so the show was basically just reruns on Toon Disney in the early 2000s, but I loved most if not every single episode. Season 3 wasn't that great, but I'm going to try and get my hands on the whole series anyway. If this show isn't on Disney+ I'm starting a petition.

    21:39 I disagree, I thought Thailog was a pretty interesting villain. His main goal wasn't just "to get rich," but to prove his superiority to his three 'fathers.' The reason he was so obsessed with wealth, wasn't simply due to generic moustache-twirling greed, but because he wanted to surpass Xanatos in monetary power (in the same vein as how he tried to surpass Sevarius by creating the clone clan in 'The Reckoning,' and how he tried to best Goliath by hooking up with his former mate Demona...and then creating an implied sex slave by cloning the G man's two major love interests...nasty stuff!).
    The dude is pretty much a walking Oedepus Complex, thanks mostly to the mistreatment he received from his 'fathers' (Xanatos and Sevarius pretty much treated him like shit from day one, and Goliath dismissed him as "an abomination" upon seeing him for the first time...true he regretted it almost immediately afterwards, but like nearly every other villain on the show, Thailog isn't one to forgive or forget). So yeah, Thailog is plenty of things, but never dull.

      @@BullSession Thanks! Although to be honest, all that maniacal laughter just further endeared me to the character XD
      My only real problem with Thailog was that he only had three episodes to establish his character, two of which he wasn't even the main focus of. Which is perhaps one of the biggest reasons why it sucks that season three turned out the way it did; the original plan was for Thailog to take Xanatos' place as the main antagonist, and the season would have further built upon his character and goals. Kind of like how season two built upon Demona from what little we got of her backstory in season one. But alas, we got stuck with The Goliath Chronicles, which killed Thailog and the other clones off in one episode like it was nothing...I fucking hate studio meddling...

      I totally agree. I watched Gargoyles as a kid in the early 2000s as reruns. Had no idea that Season 2 was 52 episodes. We basically got 4 seasons in 1.
      I think Thailog and Demona are tied for best gargoyle villain while Xanatos and Macbeth are best human villains. Jackal and Hyena are just over the top, it's so good to be bad villains.

    The "Gargoyles" retrospective lay dormant by the human they were sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for several months. Now we are in August, the spell is broken, the retrospective lives again!
    Now with that cheap joke out of the way, Season 2 was awesome. I think my favorite episodes of the World Tour arc were the ones with other gargoyles, and the post-Avalon set with the dystopian future and Goliath's crew finally returning to Manhattan. Plus, it's amazing how they incorporated many Shakespearian stories and mythologies into this show and managed to make them work in this show's universe.
    Now I can't wait to see what you have to say about Season 3, which yeah, I didn't care for either.

    Fun fact: I am a literal jalapeño.
    See, those chiles are called after my home city, which is the capital of the Mexican state of Veracruz: Xalapa.
    "X" is pronounced as "J" due to the indigenous náhuatl language, tho, which was spoke by the then all migthy aztec empire, which covered almost half of México at its peak.
    Funnily enough the other bigger empire of mesoamericans were the mayans, who were part of the World Tour Arc, so it kinda is a Yin Yang circle in my eyes.

It's astonishing how much is there, really.
    I'd say City of Stone is my favorite, though, but it's impossible to single out any of those episodes; they all need each other to work. That multi-parter is some of the best-written content I've ever experienced, and something about it all just being one cog in a plot by the Weird Sisters to get soldiers for the Archmage has always been stupefying to me in its sheer scale.

Lex was coersed into betraying the clan).

    It was briefly on the the WB network (not sure if it was part of the "Kids WB" lineup) and basically a western made to look like a Spaghetti Western with a female hero as the star. It was really a mixed bag in my opinion but still noteworthy for being an original work and having it's own unique style.

    I always found Demona's anger at Puck turning the humans into gargoyles to be a major sign of how much she's been blinded by the desire for vengeance and by her own hatred? Because, if you think about it, she was basically getting what she wanted and more - not only would the humans be gone, like she wanted, but she would literally be able to live in a world full of gargoyles again, possibly more than she'd ever known before then. But she was so focused on wanting to make the descendents of those who she felt wronged her pay that she didn't want the humans "replaced", she just wanted them all dead.

      Physically being gargoyles didn't change that they were, at their core, still humans. They were raised with human values, ideas, beliefs, structures of society, religion, government, politics, etc. They were no more gargoyle than Elisa was when she turned. Didn't even know how to fly. It's the whole 'putting pearls on a pig' thing. Doesn't change what they were, even if in this case, they technically didn't remember physically being human before...in their heads, they always would've been.

    in the end everything that happened to Demona was her fault, jumping to conclusions without talking things out, the destruction of her clan not once but twice. I understand why she hates us but thats her fault not ours but she hates Elisa cause she's Goliath love interest now and a better woman then she is or ever was.
    I really liked Puck he was my fav character from the fairy realm being a trickster just like the MCU's Loki only not out to destroy the world

    11:30 wait is it actually said to be Belle’s dress because that expands your King Arthur theory considerably. In Kingdom Hearts Merlin a recurring supporting character and Belle makes a few appernces in the series. The fact this girl has the dress of someone from another world. Given that she didn’t get back to New York with a corridor of darkness we can rule that possibility out. However this means she’s possibly met a keyblade wielder if she isn’t one herself

    At first he isn't confident in his ability but slowly grows into and accepts the burden of leadership and like how Rodimus was as Hot Rod, Brooklyn also has the high spirited attitude but isn't as reckless.

      According to Greg Weisman, Demona has grown somewhat suicidal over the centuries, and knowing that her plague might kill MacBeth and thus take her with him if it does, the video could have also been a suicide note.

    Apparently Snidely Whiplash was a real person in the Gargoyles universe, given how Derek referred to him. After all, people don't usually talk about reincarnation in regards to fictitious characters. Hmm. That'd mean that Dudley Do Right was also real. Considering Weisman planned to use everything/everyone brought up in this show, now matter how trivial (Space Spawn), for future stories I'm left wondering if much like Nought (background character in The Gathering) he now intends to do something with Derek's throwaway line. Hmm. That'd be an interesting crossover. Goliath:"Why is that man sitting backwards on that horse?" :P

    I'm interested to see your review on Season 3. I loved Gargoyles growing up but it wasn't till I got all the episodes from a flatmate and uni did I watch the whole series.
    I was so disappointed with Gargoyles; The Goliath Chronicles that I deleted that season and kept the others.
    Only things I remember was how I expected Xanatos to come up with a great scheme or use the Iron Clan robots to distract the anti-gargoyle group, but he was very inactive for most of the season. There was also that anti-climatic ending. :(

    Great video, re-watching the series and introducing it to my gf. We're currently on the first few episodes of the world tour.
    Xanatos is my all time favourite antagonist but I always feel the world tour episode where he mentions cliched villainy feels like writers hanging a lantern for Xanatos being under or poorly written in that episode. The scheme seems beneath him but they had to sort of justify it.
    My least favourite moment with the character.

    Even though I love this show. I have a few problems with it now re watching it again. One thing I noticed is that they always made Demona weak around Elisa. I get that Elisa is a detective and a trained cop for years. But also Demona is a warrior for a thousand of years who have been in many battles. She should easily manhandle Elisa. Even in human form.But I thought it was smart for the creators to make the human ally a Cop. So we can at least believe that Maza can handle her own against Demona more then if she was a regular human with a regular job. Still.

      @@BullSession I feel that, if Mattel ever do decide to resurrect Street Sharks, they should take it in a darker, grittier direction. After all, what happened to the Bolton brothers (painful, unnatural transformations into monstrous looking creatures followed by their father's corrupt ex-partner framing them thus turning most of their hometown against them) certainly lends itself to more mature storytelling (old show ATTEMPTED it, but things got too narmtacular). Also, really lean hard into the body horror aspect inherent to the characters. Get Cronenberg up in this joint.

    I have to admit, I kind of hate how the show written Demona. Granted, if a reboot was ever done, I still want Demona to be the tragic antagonist, but not so much a villain. While overboard, she still had a point and drove home that Gargoyles purpose didn’t have to mean to serve humans, especially humans who treated them less than second class citizens. Just replace Gargoyles with any marginalized group of people. If a reboot is ever done, I would love to see her points made clear and have Goliath’s own beliefs about what makes a Gargoyle and that they’re purpose does not have to be serving or protecting humans, if at all. Demona can still be the “bad guy” and still be single minded over her hate of humans, but it could be because she can’t get over the oppression she had to suffer under them.
