I would agree if she was talking about actual, stone, decorative gargoyles but she's probably talking about the stupid cartoon Gargoyles.

kenzo, if you are going to comment on stuff you think you know about at least try to make a claim that is reasonable and not just unfounded rhetoric and hot air.

Gargoyles probably could have been alright if it wasn't a kid's show. You probably only like it because it's full of stupid Star Trek actors.

1. I liked it back in the day because I was a kid when it was on air.
2. It's pretty good for a kids show. IMO its better than the old Batman show everyone spooges about.
3. It actually took me years - well after I fell in love - to link the fact that Deanna Troi and Will Riker are in this.
4. If it weren't a kids show, it would be the worst kind of furry-bait imaginable (worse than it already is).

The most LiQuid thing ever said.

Also this show needs to list the toe tappin' tunes used in the interludes.

Soundhound and such can really be your friend there. But yeah, could we get music listings in these, Karen?

This is what I exactly came here to post. Nice job guys. Have listened and loved every episode. I more love the random, quick back stories behind the trivia.
