Teen Titans. That series had a great run, but it has so much more potential.

Hmmm... I guess that's it for me. I guess I don't really care for T.V. as much as I used to.

I totally agree, I got the firefly series on dvd for free (yes, a real copy for free) and I was hooked, watched 7 episodes in one day. Love it to death, and reboot just the same. The creator is coming to Toronto, Im so gonna meet him.

Another show I want back is Drive, they just didnt do that show any justice, at all.

And I dont think I need to say futurama.

I will never forgive nickelodeon for what they did there.

I can understand cancelling zim due to it being slightly too much for younger viewers, but they wont sell the rights. Both adult swim and comedy central have offered, but nickelodeon most likely just cringes at the thought of seeing another company make monies, or maybe they just like the merchandising income.

Either way, I propose firebombing.

Hmm..

Well, Futurama's coming back, so I don't need to say that. Zim should have been on a different channel entirely. Old Nick and Toon Disney (or whatever channel they were on) shows (Darkwing, Ducktales, the duck stuff) shouldn't have been canceled. But then again, if RML was around now, they would have taken the fun out of it long ago. Oh, Fresh Prince.

Stuff that should be canceled? Okay, Disney Channel. Wry. Wry indeed. What..what the Rule 6 are they thinking? Okay, I'll start with the more obvious:

That's So Raven. Any humor in this show can be found in stuff you make up yourself based on the show's premise. Which is your typical tween comedy. Normal girl has special gift and gets into some CRAAZY antics. Oh, god. Raven herself has worn out the character, and..Okay, really, I don't know what to say about this show. It's just..bad.

Suite Life. Okay, you've got the two teenage boys who get into some CRAAZY antics. The delivery on this show is complete and utter crap. The terrible acting, the junky plots..This show is like Raven in that I don't know what to say except that it is just BAD.

Corey in the House. I don't know much about this show, except that it's a spinoff starring the annoying-Rule 6 kid from Raven, Corey. They play him out to be a new-age hipster, when, in reality, he's really annoying.

Disney Channel shows are all the same. Just implement a different set of characters and setting. That's what you need to make a good DC show.

Now, something I'm surprised that people haven't complained about is The N. Which, I dunno if all you guys get this channel. They show FP a lot, maybe you'll recognize that.

This is the channel with Degrassi and all that stuff. Which are all the same shows as well. Teenage kids get into a lot of drama-filled things that are so gut-wrenchingly boring that you will want to smash your TV in with a brick afterwards. I don't get this channel, because you could just go to your local California high school and be annoyed in the same exact way!

Yeah, there's a lot of crap on TV.

YES.
That's why none of them last more than 2-3 years (BTW, I belive That's So Raven was cancelled, now it just has that spinoff). Then they start new shows with the same crappy ideas. In fact, I'm convinced that the Disney Channel has written about 10 or 15 ridiculously cliched, frustratingly worn-out, and obviously predictable episodes, and each show makes its own version of them. You didn't even mention the worse ones yet like Life with Derek. And, of course, the same thing pretty much applies to those Teen Nick things too. And of course, at the end of every series, everyone ends up famous and/or going out with the hottest people in school. It's like all the TV stars over there are totally ignorant that there are normal people living actual lives. Don't even get me started on those shows... :D
Luckily, they still show Even Stevens reruns every now and then, and those are still all right.

Also, bring back Seinfeld, it's only been what, 9 years? They're outta jail now!

True. But, most likely, it would be using crappy plots. Still, though, it's a very funny show.

And don't get me started on Disney Channel. The only good thing I can get out of Disney nowadays is its Jetix branch, and even then it's only a rare show that gets me interested.

In short, kill Disney, and the tarded tumor Nick grew over the years.

I think it is a general consensus of the majority of the internet that nickelodeon was the best in the 90s.

Very few shows had fail in them.
By the way, there are some rumors that nick is releasing a channel devoted to the 80s and 90s, called nick rewind. It might replace nick GAS in 2008.

I so hope it does. For a while, Nicktoons network has been my only refuge.

I'd like to see more of Clone High. That cartoon was awesome, and it ended on a cliffhanger.

I still think I'm the only one here who doesn't want Futurama to come back. It really wasn't that good.

Courage is now airing on CN at 10:00 PM, which is awesome because I forgot how much I missed it.

I loved the Young Ones, but it didn't end due to a cancellation. They wanted to end it before they ran out of good ideas and while the show was popular. Kind of like Seinfeld.

It wasn't. It was decent, I'll give it that. But way overrated, not worthy of being revived from the dead. More worthy of it than Family Guy, I'll also give it that, but still.

I know, I loved that show! The spelling bee episodes were probably the best. Good ol' Rebecca Sealfont.

-Courage the Cowardly Dog-Yes, it was awesome x3
-The Wild Thornberrys-Am I the only one who absolutely loves this? D:
-Case Closed-I know it's not 'cancelled', as new episodes are being made and stuff, but I wish it hadn't been taken off adult swim. Now I have to buy the DVDs. It's like...Addictive like...like coffee *_* And ...Interwebs....*twitch*...I'mnotcrazy...>.>

-Frasier-It was like...The only sitcom I've ever really liked....*nerd*

Futurama-I didn't know it was canceled! It's no much better than the Simpsons. Not as...worn out. -.-


I wish they'd cancel Family Guy. It's everywhere. It's TAKING OVER THE WORLD! D:
And it just needs to die. So does South Park. *shudder*

South Park needs to stay. It's probably the best at what it does.

Disney channel shows are all the same nowa-days. Shows about kids with too many or too few dads.

Death to the DC!

That's so true, but what's more than that, is that the majority of people who watch Hanna Montana are 30-year old perverts

Blagh Grim and Mandy is getting canceled.
I miss Seinfeld a load.

And Ace I agree with you on your Futurama sentiment. They already played out that idea way to much. Anything more with that and it would just be crap. I'd rather Fox channel that extra energy into reviving the "When Animals Attack" show.

EDIT: and with bringing back Zim...we don't want that to happen unless Vasquez is involved. If Nickelodeon sold the rights the show would just turn into mindless gross-out humor. And besides, after season 2 the show went downhill.

Clone High! Oh my gahd, that was a quality cartoon. I was distraught when it was cancelled, and it didn't even make it past the first season! The studio producers must have been oblivious to the show's quality, because it definitely ranks among my favorites. It had good humour, an interesting premise, solid characters, a continuing storyline, and a very unique way of conducting each episode. Pun Dawg, with his opening and closing remarks, Ghandi and his off-the-wall A.D.D.-driven antics, the random dolphin appearance in each episode, it was all GOLD! Why, oh why did it have to leave us?!

*Sigh*... oh well... Atleast they're playing episodes on Teletoon again... and I'm glad they released the first and only season on DVD. So regardless of Clone High's unescapable absence, I'll stay loyal. Even when the 13 episodes get old and repetative, I'll stay loyal...

Oh Fox, you just can't come out with good shows anymore. You'd better keep House on the air for a long time.

I loved The Winner. The star of that show was Rob whatsit from the Daily Show. I just thought it was really funny.
