Ok, Edward15, time to let it go. This is the 4th or 5th time you've felt the need to say that on this board. Zak Saturday struggled mightily with his Kur-ness as it developed and grew this season. Like I said, he will struggle with the choices he made as Kur for the rest of his life, and he...

Some of these questions have been answered by other posters fairly accurately, so I'll focus on the others... That's Tsul's powers, not Zak's. Tsul's powers glowed white when he was in Zak's head. An attempt to siphon or 'exorcise' the Kur powers from a host results in death, regardless of...

Wonderful! Thank you all for sticking around for the finale, and for the kind words of support for the Secret Saturdays! I'm glad we were able to save a few surprises right up until the end. I wish the same thing. We originally pitched it as such, but, alas, have no final say on how many...

This is exactly right. Argost wasn't 100% sure his master plan would work. A back-up Kur was required. To answer (very generally) some Argost-related questions... Yes, we planned for Argost to be the Yeti quite a while back. The Yeti is, indeed, one of my favourite cryptids, and Ivan T...

Glad you liked it, folks. I was hoping we'd still be able to shock you a little with the Argost reveal! To answer some questions... Argost had a TV in his lair, and it was from this that he learned to speak. It's also where he got the idea that having a TV show of his own would reach (and...

Zak is imbued with the essence of Kur. Kur is a cryptid, Zak is human, so it makes him some sort of unique cryptid host. Exactly. We have one of those rare shows where characters actually grow older and change. If the series got picked up it might even be time to do a sort of 'Alien Force'...

Yes. Not the best of friends just yet, but certainly allies. Yes. Drew and Doyles' parents were killed in a Himalayan mishap many years ago. Beeman is kind of rude with everybody! And he doesn't like kids much. Apparently yes. As I've tried to point out before, the 'Monday' dimension isn't...

The first three Secret Saturdays comic stories (in CN Action Pack) were released before the series began airing, and are official prequels. In the first one, Zak uses his powers for the very first time. You're watching it! Zak is going through a lot in the TV series that will either destroy him...

I am not, and never have been, the least bit involved in programming or scheduling of the Secret Saturdays. I can't pretend to know why they make the programming decisions they do. Sorry they are making you wait. Not yet. Plan to later in the week. Did you guys like it? I'm not sure how you...

Happy 2010, folks. I'm finally back at the laptop, so I'll quickly answer a couple of recent questions... No. Not aliens. That would be awesome. There is nothing else I can do to 'make' CN order more episodes. It is entirely in the hands of the fans, now. Write letters, buy the comics...

I know I reviewed the Field Guide before publication, and I'm fairly certain it's all accurate. So, yes, it can be considered canon. As I've said several times before, we purposely stayed away from cryptids like Bigfoot or Nessie that have appeared in every other cartoon from Scooby Doo to the...

Nope. Not trying to "keep you guessing". I meant exactly what I said. Epsilon isn't working either "for" or "with" the Secret Scientists. And that shouldn't be at all surprising considering his past appearances on the show. As you say, even when he has associated himself with the Scientists...

Who said he's working for the Secret Scientists? He was working on his own/ for his 'people' when we last saw him in 'Swarm at the Edge Of Space'... Exactly. The sword is a mystical object, not the least bit scientific. It doesn't literally 'recharge' or 'power up' from sunlight so much as it...

Argost is all about the melodrama. He wants to rule the world. Very old school. As for Fiskerton, he was worried about his brother Zak getting hurt in the Garuda ceremony more than anything. As the last Kur guardian, I'm sure he would be thrilled to see the essence of Kur removed and banished...

Staying close to Zak is the best way to protect the world from Kur, no? And Fisk is pretty torn... Zak is both his beloved 'brother' and his sworn enemy. The mask is made of a unique, flexible, rubber-like material that allows full mouth movement and expressions. It is reinforced (tougher) in...
