One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness, it was a world of fear, it was the age of Gargoyles. Stone by day, warriors by night. We were betrayed by the humans we were sworn to protect. Frozen in stone by a magic spell for 1000 years. Now here in Manhattan, the spell is broken and we live again! We are defenders of the night, we are GARGOYLES!

@UbinTimor2 жыл бұрын
I rewatched the series a few months ago due to having down time and wanting to look through the series to see if it held up (was going through a nostalgia phase or something watching JLU, Static Shock- all the shows I grew up watching). I would always stay up late as a kid (I'm a night owl) so when my mom finally was able to afford installing cable I would always catch the episodes that the Disney channel played late at night and was memorized by the show. It's kind of amazing how much that show helped shape my morals (not giving bigots the satisfaction of being the monster they think you are, fighting hate with love, giving people second chances, but also knowing when to let go of those who are toxic, understanding generational trauma and learning to forgive but not forget ect ect). Watching the show as an adult really made me appreciate how much effort everyone went through to make it and how people like me who grew up with shows like this kind of took it all for granted. The representation was spot on too- like, it wasn't in your face but it was there, it was one of the things I liked about the show because I was a mixed race kid living in a predominantly Caucasian area so I could identify with both Goliath and the other Gargoyles (being alienated by others) and Elisa (the obvious being that she's mixed race just like I am). Whenever I have children I hope I'll be able to show them this series to hopefully inspire them too.

I use to watch Gargoyles when it aired when I was like toddler-young and later child-young. My mom would sit with me and watch it too but she used to say it was kind of weird. It didn't scare me since my mom and I also watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer at that time. I have memories of the other gargoyles getting frozen in stone in the early flashback and how devastated Goliath was. I use to remember it incorrectly that it happened in New York because they didn't make it home and were smashed to death but it was in-fact the flashback. I also remembered how they had to get home before morning to be safe there. I also loved Elisa and thought she was so cute. A few years ago my mom and I re-watched it and it was incredible, even better than I remembered. Great story, voice-acting, loved the villain, the Shakespeare, I loved the gun episode, the racism metaphors, Goliath and Elisa's relationship, it was incredible. It was supposed to be even edgier I believe but they had to cut it back for more nick-at-night. I agree that the last season doesn't count, it's pretty garbage. I would not like more Gargoyles, I like how it ended, if you don't count the last non-canon season. Sidenote: I call Bronx a Guardgoyle

You could honestly have college level discussions about some of the character dynamics. Gargoyles is proof that you don’t need profanity, crudeness, or over the top edginess to be a show that masterfully handles dark contact, you just have to have a compelling story.

Considering I’m a huge Keith David fan, Trekkie, and fantasy fan, this show was huge for me growing. I was a trek fan and fantasty nerd as a kid but when I heard more of Mr David’s work growing up it hits me ‘this dudes Goliath!’ Blown away.

I completely avoided the show as a kid, but it was the first series I watched on Disney+ when I got it, seeking to rectify such a blunder.

I will never forget in 1995. A co worker of my mom working at office depot made my 12 year old self sit down and watch it. Been a fan ever since.

Same. Made me really respect this show. they didn't shy away from that issue, an issue that was at an all time high in the early 90s in big cities here in the states.

Surprising to see a long form video about this show that goes into the characters that doesn't say anything about Xanatos other than him being "Lex Luthor-esque". His attitude of seeing the positive in his own losses and the richness of his own side adventures made him quite unique at the time IMO.

Gargoyles is literally my favorite Disney franchise! My older brother initiated me into the series in the early 2000's and I've never looked back. I'm unashamed to say that I've collected all the trading cards and I would watch a second revival in a heartbeat!!!

Just realized it when you were talking about their character traits, They're literally the Ninja Turtles. Goliath = Leonardo (leader); Brooklyn = Raphael (2nd in command, temper mental); Broadway = Michelangelo (goofy/comedic relief); Lexington = Donatello (tech nerd); Hudson = Splinter (group mentor); Detective Maza = April

He even admits afterward that it was stupid. Elisa never fully blames him either. She takes responsibility for leaving it lying around and is later seen locking up her gun. It's a good episode.

I would really like to see a continuation of the initial two seasons. Especially knowing about Time Dancer and Gargoyles 2198 planned spin-offs. Alas, after seeing how many old franchises revived or rebooted today just to be run into the ground by the new generation of "creators", I'm very skeptical about that.

It was continued in the 2006 comic from SLG, and will be revived again in a new series from Dynamite. Both series are fully canon.
