As further proof that Kung Fu-fighting animals are in vogue these days, Cartoon Network has picked up Skunk Fu! from Cake Distribution and plans to begin airing the animated series in the U.S. on Tuesday, May 27 at 10 a.m. (ET/PT). The show should benefit a bit from all the hype surrounding DreamWorks Animation’s feature film Kung Fu Panda, which hits theaters on June 6.
Created by Aidan Harte, Skunk Fu! is a series of 52 13-minute episodes that revolve around a young western skunk learning Kung Fu from a wise old Panda in China so that he can help the resistance fight against the evil Dragon and his army of Ninja Monkeys. The show features madcap humor and adventure themes aimed at kids aged 6-11
“The Cartoon Network broadcast will provide a fertile basis for the further roll out of Skunk Fu! in the United States,” coments Ed Galton, managing director of Cake Distribution. “We already knew from our first outing on the Kids’ WB! that our little Skunk has legs and this is the dream opportunity to see the series blossom further through much improved exposure to its target audience.”
Skunk Fu! is a Cartoon Saloon, Cake Ent. and Telegael co-production for TG4 in Ireland and Super RTL in Germany. The series is currently airing on the BBC, France 5 and Super RTL, among other international broadcasters. All audiovisual exploitation rights are controlled by Cake Distribution and all licensing and merchandising rights are controlled by Galleon Plc.

I have a feeling this show will have disastrous results on Cartoon Network.
I\'ve seen it several times on Kids\' WB, and have noticed several major flaws in it.
For one - it\'s not that funny. It has the kind of jokes that make you feel stupid just for hearing.
And it also has terrible pacing. It seems like it just cuts to one scene after another, not giving you a chance to react to the last one. You\'ll be wondering what in the world is happening after a while.
The plots are boring and generic as well... even for a kids show.

I disagree my children like this show. I\'ve seen it with my children before it quite frankly its pretty much the only cartoon I\'ve seen them watch that looks like it has real moral lessons. I found the animation to be Grade A+ And I work as a Graphic Artist, the Detail put into the perfect frame rated animation is astounding. The Animation is just a real Attention Graber. I really do hope they keep this show on Cartoon Network. My kids never use to wake up this early, but do now ever since the show aired.

Here at my school they\\\'d eat you alive for watching this. (I watch it anyways because I don\\\'t give a flying #### on what ones opinions are about me. I used to come home every day from school and turn on the T.V. to watch it. Now I\\\'m only lucky if I see it once or twice A MONTH! I just wish they\\\'d change the schedule to something more fitting to people in the U.S. because most kids don\\\'t get out at 12:00-1:00 P.M. (I get out at 2:30 and arrive home at 3:00) Even though I am 13, nearing my 14th birthday as it draws ever so close, I find this show highly addicting, insanely cute, and a great animation for all to enjoy. I am a loyal \\\"Skunk Fu!\\\" fan and I dare anyone to question me on that.
Jon: I 100% agree with you, there should be more seasons. But as we all know more episodes = more money which I hope they can get from Cartoon Network, KidsWb, or even BBC. I like the way you think Jon. If you could, please add me on MSN.
