The following content may or may not contain floof, you have been warned! So I've just caught up on the series latest three episodes (4-6) and there's a thing I can't avoid noticing.
The tails, or rather lack thereof =P
Lion-O, Cheetara, Tygra and Panthro all miss their tails. But at the same time both Kit and Kat has theirs.
This made me question if they somehow dropped their tails at some point in their growth. This theory was shattered in a glimpse back to Panthro's time in the army though. In all the clips of his young adult phase he had a tail and in a clip of Lion-O and Tygra as kids they did not. Is this something the creators overlooked I wonder. Or perhaps theres some strange logic to it =)
So far my opinion is that the series is ok, not great, but ok. I don't really like series where every episode has to have a conclusion. My diligent anime watching the last 15+ years has made me relate such episode to fillers, and I hate fillers xD I much prefer a story that starts in the first episode and end in the last rather than each episode having it's own story that somehow just leads the main story on in the background. I hope I'm making sense =P
Edit: Forgot to mention how much I loved that they brought back the Samophlange =D
Oh well, just thought I'd share my thoughts before I go sleep =)

But anyways, I never noticed that some characters don't have tails and some don't. Maybe that's a whole bunch of animated bloopers that the animators missed out on that little thing. Who knows. Maybe it'll be explained in the long run. I like the new ThunderCats series. It's more serious and less cheesy than the original. Even though I like the original, but in terms of what I see. I think the newer one is better.
I'll probably keep watching this one though =)
I only noticed the tails thing as I feel no anthropomorphic animal is complete without the tail... I simply love tails xD
I wouldn't have thought so much about the adults not having tails if it weren't for that flashback of Panthro though...
sadly i haven't seen any of the episodes yet >>
