Date: Thu, 2 Oct 1997 01:38:01 -0400 (EDT) From: Dana Uehara To: kats@maxie.com According to the FAQ, and to the best of my knowledge: Hanna-Barbera personnel were told: the series was axed because it wasn't moving any merchandise. (Never mind that there was hardly any SK merchandise to begin with at the time!) Some additional info I heard: the toys were under development, and were slated to come out not long after the series' first season. It had good ratings, and would likely have had marketable merchandise. However, because of problems with the merchandising (the action figures, for example, weren't satisfactory, from what I heard) and poor marketing, the merchandise tie-ins failed miserably -- which took the series down with them. Ironically, SK stuff is now a hot commodity among katfans! Rumored: Ted Turner cancelled the series because he "suddenly realized how violent it was." I'll let you draw your own conclusions from that one. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Why the Kats were grounded.

I'll let you draw your own conclusions from that one. I heard from CBS News in Spanish that a lot of TV programs must have a code for parental-guide selection. Also I heard that some shows that The Simpsons had a bad code (ie. Simpsons are not good for childrens and have "crude slang"). Maybe Ted Turner saw how "violent" are the Swat-Kat shows and for avoid a code of "violence" -which would avoid to childern to see the show and of course to sell SK-merchandise to them too-, just ground the show and let on the air dump shows who do not have this trouble (ie. any Scooby doo show). This maybe be another reason IMHO. See'ya. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Why the Kats were grounded.

Yes, but sometimes "official" isn't necessarily the "truth". Consider: why did the series have such poor ratings? I'd say a *big* factor (at least in U.S. syndication) was the timeslot -- 7:35 am on Sundays isn't exactly "prime time", especially if that time is East Coast time. That puts it at 4:35 am here on the West Coast, and as early as 2:35 am in Hawaii. Sure, the series had some prime-time (6 pm Eastern) syndication, but not on a regular basis. The prime time airings that happened (at least once in '94) were only a week long at best. Also, don't forget that what the H-B staff were told (series cancelled due to lack of merchandise) could also be counted as "official". I wonder if someone could play Paul Harvey and tell us "the rest of the story"... ----------------------------------- Dana Uehara (razor@maxie.com) http://rat.org/razor ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Why the Kats were grounded.

I'll let you draw your own conclusions from that one. It is interesting to see that the rumor is that Ted cancelled the show because of its "violence". Strangly enough, the New Johnny Quest came out shortly after the Kats got cancelled. It seems to me that there is just as much violence in the new JQ as there was in SK. >> Here is a repost from a Jonny Quest Message Board on America Online - This is from Lance Falk, one of JQ'd and SWAT Kats's writers. The first bit is about JQ. "This is from a different message board (The JQ action board near the top of the list, to be exact,) but I thought it was relevant here. It's not often you hear from the show's creators. This is from Lance Falk, one of SWAT Kats's writers. The first bit is a question someone asked him. "<< Then we move on to the merchandise. No offense to anyone, but from the little amount of merchandise I've seen, I wouldn't want it! The action figures look like something out of a Schwarzenegger movie. I don't understand why toy companies cannot make the figures look realistic! If Kenner had made the JQ toys look like they do in the show, maybe they would have sold better!>> Again, I agree. What I wouldn't give for actual Jonny Quest stuff that reflected the show itself (A Dragonfly toy or model kit is my most wanted cartoon product). If those weird Questworld "inspired" items did well, it WOULD help the show's profitability. Still, I wish they were done "regular" first, THEN with the goofy variations (like the Batman line). I'm a toy collector and JQ fan but really wasn't interested in that weird stuff. It wasn't "Jonny Quest" to me. Both things mentioned (ratings and merchandise) MUST show profit to make a show worth investing in for the company footing the bill. It's basic business and perfectly understandable. I always felt if SWAT Kats were in the right time slot and had a decent and ACCURATE line of merchandise to go with it, that show would have kicked some turtle butt and HB would have been given the green light to make A LOT more.

OK people, I've been listening to many of you gripe about the end of production of the SWAT Kats after three cease-fires now. Has it occured to anyone to be graitful for what we _did_ get. 26 stories _were_ produced. The show _has_ aired nearly none-stop scince it was produced (does anyone know that a show must usually have 60+ half-hour episdoes to be considered for sindication and life after production? That's it is still on is no small mirical). Someone _did_ allow it to be produced and is _still_ airing it. If you don't like that it ended, deal with it. Everything ends in the real world. If you don't want SWAT Kats to die forever, it is up to each of us. Not to harass anyone about what happened to the show -- that is done and over with -- but to nurture the passion the show produced; express it, gather it, save it, and display it for the world. Many people have already written FanFic, drawn what was in their hearts and heads, and placed it on the Web through those that are gathering the memories for all to see and remember the show that started it. If you don't think you can contribute anything to this gathering, you are wrong, but you can still help without posting anything by encuraging the people who are expresing their love. This is immortality. The memory, the love, and the passion displayed for all to see. -- ----------------- Rauhnee Ranshanka GateKat@SWATKats.Net ************************************************************************* "What enables an intelligent government and a wise military leadership to overcome others and achieve extraordinary accomplishments is foreknowledge."

Has it occured >to anyone to be graitful for what we _did_ get. Very nicely put. A lot of our resident fanboys on the list (and believe me, I can tell who the fanboys are because I screen *every* post that I sent to the list!) can't seem to get this through their thick skulls. As far as new episodes are concerned, the show is DEAD. Period. No gnashing of teeth, no wailing and whining will bring it back. Since H-B, Turner and Warner all merged together, the chances of the show returning are even less likely now than before. But the show is still being aired, and those of us who have been fortunate enough to tape it have been able to view the episodes again at our leisure. This does NOT mean, however, that the show can't still live on in the minds and hearts of katfans. DJ's fanfiction archive and this mailing list are perfect examples of the show still living. Personally, I've had about enough of people saying, "NO! WE WANT NEW EPISODES! THE KATS STILL HAVE A CHANCE! LET'S MAKE BATTLE PLANS AGAINST TED TURNER!" (I'm using all caps for a reason.) If what I just quoted sounds like you, stop and THINK! The show has been out of production for almost three years, and many of the staff who originally worked on the show have gone off to other projects. (Has anyone kept tabs on what the Tremblays are doing, by the way?) This doesn't mean I'm not going to let these types of posts go through to the list anymore. If you sincerely believe you can wage war against Ted Turner and get the show revived, then more power to you if you succeed. But I should offer you fair warning that constantly whining about it, especially on the list, won't create any new episodes. ----------------------------------- Dana Uehara (razor@maxie.com) http://rat.org/razor ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: TeD tUrNeR....

Earlier I posted that I would be going in for Enforcer training (the U.S. Air Force's Officer Training School). On September 20, I learned that I'll be entering this upcoming training class, which begins on October 27. (The next class begins January 13, 1998, which was the class start date I'd originally anticipated.) I'll be out of touch between the end of October and February 1998; and after October 27 I will no longer be available via email at this address (razor@netcom.com). As far as the fate of the list is concerned, I've been unable to find another site (to my satisfaction) to host the list. For the time being, the list will remain on maxie.com, but be warned that the site could go down at any time. The only solution I can see at this time is to keep the discussion going on this list, and move it to alt.tv.swatkats if the site should go down. DJ Clawson has agreed to manage the list from the time I enter training until maxie.com dies, or until I return and can find the list a new home, whichever comes first. If another SK discussion list springs up in the meantime, I'll assess the situation when I return, and decide then if it's worthwhile to restart this list. If you have any questions or comments, please let me know in email. I *will* be around until October 27, so there shouldn't be any break in listmail until at least then. ------------------------------------- Dana Uehara (razor@netcom.com) http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hangar/4420/ http://rat.org/razor ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: New Club Date: Sun, 12 Oct 1997 21:55:02 -0400 From: afuerle@juno.com (BluePard the Loopy) To: kats@maxie.com I know we're all kat fans here, but is anyone else a cat fan?

I did a bit of websurfing on some military information in the different countries worldwide (http://www.cfcsc.dnd.ca:80/links/milorg/index.html for anyone else curious to know what I've been looking at ;-). I found it interesting, to say the least, how many countries have conscription laws requiring military training and service -- Singapore, Ecuador, Israel and South Korea, to name a few. Here in the U.S., military service isn't required (unless the draft is called, which hasn't happened since Vietnam). Perhaps not surprisingly, smaller countries and/or those in political hot spots seem to require conscription. Given the amount of damage and threats Megakat City has taken, I'd imagine MK City having a similar conscription policy -- perhaps something like, all male kats reaching the age of eighteen (or graduating from high school, whichever came first) would undergo basic military training during the summer, then serve a total of three years full-time service (either during the week, or on weekends on a reserve basis). The total time required could be spread out, as long as the total number of hours put in equalled three years. This would ensure that MK City would have adequate Enforcer support (think of the body count in the show!) if and when it were attacked. Any thoughts? ----------------------------------- Dana Uehara (razor@maxie.com) http://rat.org/razor ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Enforcer conscription Date: Wed, 15 Oct 97 18:12:10 EDT From: Ed Rudnicki To: kats@maxie.com >Out of curiosity (and partly in preparation for *my* upcoming Enforcer >training, so to speak!)

Or like in Israel, mandatory for males and voluntary for females (which explains Felina). >This would ensure that MK City would have adequate Enforcer support (think >of the body count in the show!) if and when it were attacked. > >Any thoughts? Yeah, with that casualty rate, the male/female ratio will be seriously skewed, and male Enforcers who survive their period of service will have their pick of eligible female kats. Obviously this is not good for the latter, and is made worse with the knowledge that the best and bravest are always the first to die. This is a bit akin to the Chaco War in central South America (Bolivia, Paraguay, and parts of others), where some regions lost more than half the men 17-45 due to the war. Also, if casualties are that high, you'd expect more females in the workforce, which does not appear to be the case.

Also, if casualties are that high, you'd expect more females in the workforce, which does not appear to be the case. Actually, the Enforcer death rate isn't _that_ high, most of them manage to bail. The equipment casualties are a different story... And if the population is skewed that way, why don't Jake, Chance and at least some of the other males have mates (or at least girlfriends)? As for the work force, it wasn't shown to any real extent. Just a thought on the male/female ratio, maybe more male kats are born that female. This explains why almost all the civilians that are shown are male and that almost no females or young shown. This would also cover why none of the male kats seem to have mates or even dates (not that the show covered anything like that). More to my point, has anyone thought about how long this high level of super-criminals has been around? If it is a long-standing problem, the Enforcers and MegaKat City would have been obliterated by now as is any force that is incapable of protecting its home turf over a long period of time. If the problem is fairly new (my theory), and the Enforcers are simply at the beginning of the learning curve (as is any type of enforcement/investigation branch when it meets something it does not have experience with), it explains why; 1) The SWAT Kats are so successful (as individuals they are ahead of the group), 2) MegaKat City is still around, 3) MegaKat City isn't an armed camp under martial law (most countries and cities on Earth would have taken that step a while back), 4) The Enforcers have not had upgraded training (and a new Commander), 5) A warrior (read former Enforcer) is not mayor, 6) The standard issue Enforcer gear is obviously inferior to most of what they are up against, but their prototypes are better that what their opponents have. 7) MegaKat City has a regulare Police Force in addition to the Enforcers (both of whom answer to Feral). So the Enforcers (or the Police) are either new, or newely assigned their current tasks (who does what is pretty foggy, but they both tend to show up when something happens on the ground). (If you know Anime, it seems like the AD Police in Bubblegum Crisis in their first few years -- they were hopeless, but they learned eventualy.) -- ----------------- Rauhnee Ranshanka GateKat@SWATKats.Net ************************************************************************* "What enables an intelligent government and a wise military leadership to overcome others and achieve extraordinary accomplishments is foreknowledge."

Those super-criminals do seem to be a more recent problem, since as you say the criminals haven't smashed the city flat, or taken it over. ( Unless Manx is a successful SC who is now in power? Isn't THAT an unlikely thought! ) That brings up the question: "Why now?" In many cases it seems to be related to new tech. that empowers them. Mac & Molly, Turmoil, Viper, and Hard Drive all seem to be tied to a specific technology. Dark Kat is more of a generalist, not dependant on any specific tech. The Pastmaster and Madkat-Jester ? I wonder if if they and their fellow magic-users were done in by depletion of magical resources- i.e.:"Mana" ( see The Magic Goes Away - Larry Niven stories ), and those resources have gradually recharged during the centuries of non-use. Probably some of the other criminals are Kopy-Kats, seeing others almost succeed and thinking that they could do better. Other than new tech, are there any *hidden* forces that are in operation to spawn all these SC's? =^^= Paul Kemner pkemner@bright.net ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Enforcer conscription Date: Thu, 16 Oct 97 18:29:20 EDT From: Ed Rudnicki To: kats@maxie.com >Actually, the Enforcer death rate isn't _that_ high, most of them manage >to bail.

I dunno... cats CAN overdose on catnip. afterwards, catnip has very little effect on them, unless it's ina similarly large quantity.

Who says that kats arn't more easily addicted than cats, or that their katnip isn't addictive (or even what it's effects are, for that matter). If it's illigal, it is unlikely that it is as harmless as the catnip we know. Some things are illigal for political rather than practical reasons, but I'll make the leap that this one wasn't for the discutions' sake at least. -- ----------------- Rauhnee Ranshanka GateKat@SWATKats.Net ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: How Long has this been goin' on?

The first one was (and still is) perfectly fine- I never understood what was wrong with it to have to develop a second one. (The SK Fan Club Web Ring.) Now I see there's a third - The SWAT Kats Fan Art Web Ring. This is getting kind of silly. The first one is all-encopassing - it will accept URLs relating to the fan club, to the fan art, and to any other SK page. You should be able to reach ALL the SK sites through one good web ring. Lately, to me, it just seems that everyone wants their own pet web ring. Soon maybe we'll have the "SWAT Kats Fan Fiction Web Ring," the "SWAT Kats Links" web ring, the "SWAT Kats Sounds" web ring, the "Super SWAT Kats Web Ring" etc., etc.... And all of the SK pages will have links and pics for most of the web sites. Very repetitive. My page (and a few other people's, like The Razor's Edge,) could go on each and every one of those Web Rings - And I have no desire to have a main page full of "My site belongs to this web ring" and the pic...and the html.... or to have a different ring on all my sub-pages. They're called sub-pages because they're all consolidated into a main site, I'd rather not have them divided up by web rings. So if you're thinking of making your own web ring, please don't!!!

I've you want to make one yourself, please download a preview image of it somewhere, and we can vote wich one to use. We can also start planning, how to distribute it, since I can't make copies for everyone. So I would be greatfull to get the location of everyone who wants to have one, and everyone who can copy it. I will shurely have to chage money for it, since someone has to pay the empty CD and the shipping. The copiers may charge as much as they want. (OK it should be less than $20 plus postage) The CD will conatain the cover in a digital form (BMP) so it can be easily printed an every system.

Consider: - A strong female lead (Sarah Connor vs. Felina Feral) - Similar sounding labs, dealing in high-tech stuff (Cyberdyne vs. Pumadyne) - A very strong friendship and partnership (John Connor and the Terminator vs. T-Bone and Razor) - A brilliant scientist/developer whose research ultimately becomes his undoing (Miles Dyson vs. Dr. Greenbox) -- I think I might be grasping at straws on this one, though...) - And here's one that *really* stretches things a bit...

DJ's seemed to adapt to the golf cart very nicely, I might add, despite a few hairballs encountered while starting out. ;-) While waiting around to process into the USAF (most of it was "hurry up and wait") I had a chance to see "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" again, and interestingly enough I managed to draw a few parallels between that movie and SK. Consider: - A strong female lead (Sarah Connor vs. Felina Feral) - Similar sounding labs, dealing in high-tech stuff (Cyberdyne vs. Pumadyne) - A very strong friendship and partnership (John Connor and the Terminator vs. T-Bone and Razor) - A brilliant scientist/developer whose research ultimately becomes his undoing (Miles Dyson vs. Dr. Greenbox) -- I think I might be grasping at straws on this one, though...) - And here's one that *really* stretches things a bit... Edward Furlong (John Connor) and Chance Furlong sharing the same last name. I don't think I'll hold my breath for "SWAT Kats: Judgment Day" though. ;-) --------------------------------------------------- Dana Uehara (razor@netcom.com) http://rat.org/razor http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hangar/4420/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: SWAT-Kats CD-Rom update Date: Sun, 26 Oct 1997 16:56:49 +0000 From: Christian Berger To: GateKat@SWATKats.Net Rauhnee Ranshanka wrote: > > Christian Berger wrote: > > I currently can't grab, because my HD is FULL.

Who the Mayor is isn't mentioned, but Callie is not running the city. With all the other changes, what is Mayor Manx (or whoever has his post) like that Callie is not in charge, but not discovered until the good SWAT Kats point her out. I also noticed just how oblivious everyone was to the obvious changes. I counted 16 noticiable changes before the SWAT Kats figured it out and Dark Kat took even longer. Just goes to show how little people actually look at their enviroment even when they think something is wrong. -- ----------------- Rauhnee Ranshanka GateKat@SWATKats.Net ************************************************************************* "What enables an intelligent government and a wise military leadership to overcome others and achieve extraordinary accomplishments is foreknowledge."

You asked, so here are a couple thoughts I had. Change the background marbilization to a royle purple (my preference) or rich green. This will enable the katshead to be a richer, darker blue (about the color of the background now). Adding "The Radical Squadron" to complete the full title (as in the show intro) would be approopriate. Adding "Episodes" or "The Complete Series" before "CD-ROM". The light-ripple effect used in Alex Ribeiro's New SWAT Kats Logo is pretty cool. I would sujest centering it if you use it though.

I made this story on a word prosseser. I hope you love it. I was born on the planet Earth, but some how born with the power to transform into anything with blood and flesh with my Magic Blue Pen. I also had the power to warp to any place real or made up. When I discovered this,I began my journy to Mega Kat City. When I got there, "Transform Power Turn me into a Mega Kat Citizen!" I said hiding in an ally. When I transformed,I was wearing a shiney black out fit and a tight silver belt. I looked around a little bit,till I saw Dr.Viper run out of Mega Kat Biochemical with some kind of slime in his right hand. I followed wondering what he was going to do. "Thisss mutatgen will turn me into a monsster like it did before that meddling Felina Feral showed up.Ah ha ha ha." he said to his plantmals. When I was about to get closer to him,I tripped on a soda can and fell at his feet. "Uh hi."I said nervisly. "Well,well a ssspy and starnge looking one in fact."he said to me. **Man good thing I really love him.** I said in my head. Suddenly I felt myself being pushed toward Viper by on his plantmals. He coiled he me in his tail and stared at me with a glint in his eyes. Normaly that's a sign when a boy or a man falls in love. "What'sss your name?" he asked casualy. "I'm Amanda." I said lovingly. **So this is how it feels to get such a cute guy to notice a girl,"I said in my head.**I'm so lucky!!** When Viper herd the tone of my voice, he gentaly sets me in his arms caressing me. Suddenly I felt his lips on mine. "I love you Amanda. Pleasse say you'll be mine forever." he said lovingly and stareing deep in eyes. "Yes.I will my love."I said. At 10:30pm.... "I took a ssample of our blood to sssee if we have any deasess and we're clean."he said to me. "Why did you do that for?"I asked. "Ssso we could sssome fun."he said excitedly and ready to take his lab coat off then my stuff. "Can we bet married first?"I asked nervisly. "Anything for you my dareling."
