Tygra does (and will) tease Lion-O, but more like as an older brother who wants to keep him on his toes.

All this talk about Tygra turning to the dark side annoys me, as it is an ancient cliche you'd expect to see in fan fiction and run-of-the-mill anime (seriously, if this was anime, Tygra would have replaced Grune on Mumm-Ra's side a season ago). It won't happen here, EVER. Reason? Well, Mumm-Ra killed his adoptive father, are you all forgetting this? And we have seen how Tygra can hold a grudge. You honestly think he'd brush this aside and join him?

Also, links to the episode would be nice. Can't believe a day passed and there are none... some fanbase this is, learn to share...

There are already cliches in this and the writers are not original.

Tygra going to the dark side brings more depth to his character. It also allows more focus on his character then being with the group.

Tygra not joining up with mummra because he killed his adoptive father is a cliche is it not.
