Cheetara forgets her super-speed, even when she could have used it to save Tygra. Tygra simply smirks like a fool at Lino-O; so much for all those lessons in battle strategy with Claudus. Lion-O, who previously held his own against an entire lizard battalion, seemingly finds it difficult to take on Slithe.

Or take the latest debacle that was their capture in episode 15. I understand the writers wanted to show the viewers that the Cats were taken by surprise but this was ridiculous.

Cheetara once again mysteriously forgets to use super-speed, even to go to Tygra’s help. Lion-O loses the Sword due to a single shot, then basically stands there waiting to be captured.
Mr. Fantastic... sorry… Panthro, who knocked out all three mutants in less than five seconds last time, was nowhere to be seen! The writers had no idea what to do with him; they didn’t even bother showing him during this “fight.”

Consistency does not seem to be an ability the writers possess.
I will be nice to the writers on some of the things. I think they have so much to pack in one episode that they leave out stuff that Adults would pick up, but not kids.

That shot was to the back, he was not expecting it.
