I saw the second show, with Doom. Honestly I thought it was crap, and Johnny was more than a little annoying. The way hey depict Sue and Johnny (facially) is very weird...they look like elves from middle earth.
But I'll give time cause I like the story potentials.
I saw the first 5 minutes or so of 'Doomed' on youtube (Us brits haven't got it yet) it looks awesome , the Animation is smooth and consistent , the VA's are a little off and Johnny is indeed an annoying bastard but aside from that it looks pretty good.
i think its shaping up, the Doom episode was a little lacking but it was alright..you see the reason they are stuffing so much in the episodes is beucase they dont have the luxury of a full season they were only green lit for like six episodes...and then its after that then CN will decide to renew...but i think we've seen that any Toon that doesnt survive on CN will end up on kids WB(krypto the superdog). for example CN was supposed to unveil the "legion of superheros" , but they canned in and WB picked it up(prem. next Sat. BTW)...so i think that FF will find life elsewhere, at least in syndication on fox kids or fox family
I just saw the FF toon...and I'm not impressed. The computer animation part is nice, but the show seems to lack the depth and wit which characterized JL and JLU. I'll check out when they have the Galactus and SS episode (assuming they do that one), but I don't think I am long for this show.
And I agree with tru-marvell: I don't like how they draw Sue and Johnny. For that matter, I'm not crazy about how they draw Reed either. That boyish hairstyle with gray sideburns? Gimme a break. Unless this is the Ultimate FF, Reed should look more mature all around.
One thing I will give them though: when they talk, their chins actually move accordingly, as opposed to so many shows where--whether the mouth is closed or wide open--the chins are immobile as stone.

ep. 3 was kinda wack to me...Doom is seeming more lame and desperate THAN usual...i mean, planting a story in the media to make reed look bad.. pffttt. they even mentioned him in the news cast that he may have diplomatic immunity but, he has evidence... geez for a guy who is monarch of one of the most technologically advanced financially stable nations in the world he sure do has some lame villain tactics..
as of episode 3. for me this series is a complete write off..the funny thing is whenever CN comes out with a new series i usually set my VCR, the same way i recorded all but 2 episodes of JLU, bu this just isnt doing it for me
I actually liked it. The storylines have been pretty good, with a few exceptions and some of the characterization has been lacking but overall it has a fun feel and I'm hoping it sticks around. I need my fix of Marvel cartoons lol
