Skeleton Warriors apparently made the same mistake with the toys. Not enough good guys in the first wave.
WB has been very supportive of the show, they're the one who talked Cartoon Network into moving the show to Saturday Mornings when it was clear that it just wasn't working as a prime-time show. They even managed to land it a sweet spot as the lead-in to DC Nation (Which is a respectably popular programming block and will be growing next year). They successfully lobbied to get a second season ordered and it's hard (but not impossible) to cancel a show you signed for (especially when the studio producing your show owns part or all of your network). Cartoon Network doesn't own Thundercats (unlike Sym-Bionic Titan, Megas XLR and other original programming) they just air it. If support is high even if CN decides they don't want it WB can shop it around to other networks, so keep watching (legally, if at all possible), buy the DVDs and toys if/when you can, and keep bugging the hell out of the producers with questions.
