Has anyone seen this yet? it appeared on toonami I think twice. It has dolls or puppets in it. I noticed that one of the puppets has the engilsh voice of Goku from DBZ.

I caught a ep. It was too cheesey for me. Is it a orginal Japanese show or American?

It's neither Japanese nor American. It's a live action puppet series from Taiwan. Specifically, it's part of the "Thunder..." series of "PiLi Puppet Theater" shows (produced by PiLi Multimedia). The one we saw as Wulin (no dash) Warriors, was the most recent one produced. Unfortunately, it assumes that you are familiar with the franchise. I don't know about anyone else, but since I am not, and since there is almost zero information (in English) about it, I am unable to put the show in it's proper context, making it (from my perspective) virtually unwatchable. Indeed, it (in the U.S.) got cancelled after only two showings (which I figured was going to happen).

Hoever, since this isn't an anime, and since it isn't from Japan, this needs to go in the "Off-Topic Discussion" forum.

(I would say something about how this is more of TOON's stupidity and unprofessionalism, and how this was just another random occurence, but I don't want to get flamed, so I'll just keep quiet about it.)

I have only seen clips of it (in its original language), but It looked pretty neat to me. Then again I'm a sucker for wuxia fiction anyway.
