You know a show I wish they'd bring back? Airwolf..

Airwolf would so totally rock, especially since we have a lot better special effects technology. I think modern SFX would make that show look a lot less cheesy. It was a great show, but the crappy effects killed it. I mean, seriously, EVERY MISSILE that thing shot looked exactly the same.

Another show I liked and I wish they'd make more of is SeaQuest DSV. That was another pretty cool show, minus that dolphin. The idea of having a trained dolphin like Darwin was cool, but, eventually, he became annoying.
Ditto with Jonathan Brandis' (RIP) character. I never liked Wesley Crusher.

OMG that show was like one of the few that I watched religiously... I even bought some episodes on VHS... umm... does that make me like a huge geek? Oh well.

I have all the episodes. :mrgreen:

Hey, I liked Darwin! And that guy that was always hangin out with the dolphin... didn't he go on to do Sliders? Or am I totally messed up in the head.

Bill Nye was indeed a very cool cat. I loved that show XD

He was on Battlebots for a while, as I recall. Now whatever happened to THAT show? Geez ...

I always prefered the BBC version of it, anyways. The CC one kinda sucked.

Yay! Bill Nye is back! I remeber when I'd used to watch that, then some game show based on "Where in the world is Carmen San Diego?" came on then the cartton version of that would come on.

But, I can live with just Bill. :)

I LOVE Bill Nye! He's so awesome...he made science fun.

Yes, Jenny, buying Bill Nye tapes IS uber-geeky. And that's a good thing, because the geeks shall inherit the earth. Because we pwn.

Billy Nye... HA!

Y'all are probably too young to remember Mr Wizard.
Bill Nye couldn't wear Mr Wizard's safety goggles!

Oh well, compared to some of the stuff kidlets have nowadays, I suppose Bill Nye would be a nice addition.

I don't like some of his statements about Global Warming, as some of them are just not true, but that's a different topic for a different thread.

Any show I watched on Nick when I was a kid. I just wish they would play reruns on basic cable, actually; I don't even need new episodes.

*Are You Afraid of the Dark?
*Kenan and Kel
*Clarissa Explains It All
*The Adventures of Pete and Pete
*The Angry Beavers
*Rocko's Modern Life
*The original All That: Lori Beth Denburg, Kenan Thompson, Kel Mitchell, Josh Server... even Amanda Bynes was great on Ask Ashley
*Space Cases
*My Brother and Me
*The original Doug (Disney ruined it. Twice.)
*The first few seasons of Hey! Arnold!
*Invader Zim, of course

Lastly, I wish That '70s Show didn't completely suck now. I really loved the first six seasons or so. Now, it is horrible. At least they're going to cancel it and end my misery.

SPACE CASES! How could I have ever forgotten? That show was my absolute favorite when I was younger! Man, I can't remember if they ever got off that ship or not. That show was so aswesome. I remember it even made me cry once or twice... I remember that space-echoes thing with the dying race or something in one episode. I missed Catalina after Suzie zapped in and replaced her, though, but Suzie was pretty cool.

Rainbow hair!

Now that I think about it, a lot of kid's shows today really bite. Go Diego Go!, Dora the Explorer, new, non-Stevish Blues Clues, Lazy Town... I could do without 'em. But I loves Miss Spider and most of the stuff on Ticke U.

Yoko! Jakamoto! Toto! (Now that's stuck in my head...) And Henry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs is also good. And the Backyardigans rule too!

Aw, I like Drawn Together. It's trés bizarre.

I also happen to love LazyTown. I went to NYC to see the live show and everything (Magnus/Sportacus is SHORT).

And I forgot all about Angry Beavers! Man, that show was awesome. Then again, the presence of Richard Horowitz makes most anything awesome.[/list]

Ah, I was going to mention that, but you beat me to it. I loved Angry Beavers. Catchy title theme as well.

But Mu is right. Richard Horvitz makes anything he's in awesome. Just look at Billy and Mandy. Rich is Billy (and his dad, and multiple other characters) and that thing has been great.

Or he could continue to lech over Raven, or maybe another animated girl.

Eh, I'm not so surprised TT was cancelled. It really REALLY dipped in quality after season two-ish. Beast Boy with his own team saywhut?

I still prefer the comics, anyway. They're top of cool. And Terra was far radder -- NO REGRETS, BABY. None of this 'I'm evil ... oh, wait, um. Guess I'm not. CRAP. *dies for the sake of you all*

Nuh-uh. Terra was hardcore until the end, baby (though she did 'undie' a few years later, I believe. Y'argh.)

Anyways.

The TT community better get their butts in gear if they wanted uncancelled. If the Kim Possible community can revive their fandom de choice, so can TT fans, I'm sure.

Ooh. My list involves quite a lot you guys have mentioned..
(I'm British though so most of you may not have heard of the shows I talk about)

Bring back:

1. MST 3000 - I spent my childhood watching and adoring that. Now I understand the more 'adult' jokes and find it even funnier! But it is never on TV these days it seems.
2. George and Martha - Basically about two hippos. It's apparantly a kids show but it made me roffle my butt off when I watched it.
3. Cardcaptors - Awful really but I watched every episode of it and then they randomly took it off air so I didn't catch it. I was so annoyed.
4. The Generation Game - If you watched this, you would remember how awesome it was.
5. Supermarket Sweep - So incredibly cheesy and 90's.

Cancel forever/never bring back:

1. Big Brother - They're on to like.. the 90th series or something and the concept of it is just too dull now.
2. Crossing Over With John Edward - Only because when it's on, my mum has made it clear that it is the LAW to watch this.
3. CSI - ARGH. Boring. Boring. boring. boring.
4. "weight loss" kinda shows. You know, they kind where they dump 4 fat people in a camp and tell them how to eat, live, etc.
5. All soap operas. The ones that are on every day, causing me never to get a chance of watching TV due to addicted mothers. *headdesk*

There's my list.

Just check out Titansgo.net.

We've sent hundreds of emails, and snailmails. It was the top five animated shows of all time.

Aw! but one of my favorite shows of all time is a soap opera! Passions! It's so ... well, bad. I love it. I've been watching since day one ^_^

Fox is hot and needs his own spin-off as of NOW. He's too cute for Passions anymore. Miguel ran off to Desperate Housewives, and Charity reemerged on Twins (which doesn't suck as much as it should. Sarah Gilbert = top of cool). FOX SPIN-OFF PLEASE. He just needs to dump Whitney and just let her be with her incest!boyfriend, Chad. Omgew >_<

...whut?
