I just wish to applaud them for the great job they've done.That's true Joey, but it's sad, in fact now that the fans realize the show is over it makes you really wonder (as I never Take Now anything Verbatim anymore at TV tome) how sincere some of these folks really are..(Maybe 90% of them are sad that the show is over, but then you have 10 % who are saying "Thank got that Piece of Garbage Animation is Over.." (yes Joey you realize what I am saying here..there will be dissenters who will hate this show, yet it's funny cause they could have done a lot more with this.. but because of Rules and regulations that are now in place, well this will be yet another Victim in the ever ending series of Shows that I feel will be left Unresolved and explored.

ah well after the Final ep, there's no need for me to hang around on TZ.net.. Sadly the whole board has become too dull and boring.. and besides who knows? maybe someday she will return, but until then. We might as well put her in Cryogenic Sleep.

c'est La vie.. that's life..

oh and Blood Majin Maybe a Memorial service would be in order.. after all It seems that we're not burying just a Naked Mole Rat here.. but a Legend...


RIP* Rufus* 2002-2005

A cute pink hairless rodent who shows.. Rodents still are kings of the Planet.

After all it was started with a Mouse.. and Ended with a Naked Mole Rat.

Kim Possible is over? This is sad news. The Gargoyles fandom feels your pain; we went through the same thing eight years ago. I'm sure other fans of other Disney shows who've had their favorite shows canceled share your grief.

But never give up hope! The Gargoyles fans have not and we've gotten Disney's attention. If you keep trying, then who knows? Only time will tell.

At least you have a few more episodes and a movie to look forward to, huh?

(and in fact a lot of us haven't really given up..(in fact some of us are really working hard to get Kim Back into Action and on the road to more missions. After all she's no Slouch when it comes to Saving the world.

I wish this show didn't have to end. I mean it could've reached 120 episodes or more. But it was a great show it had a nice run.

I'm not upset about this, neither am I particularly glad.

It's a consequence of the 65-episode rule, which by extension, is a result of assinine exectuive decisions.

Honestly I'm not quite sure what I think about it. There's the possibility that I'll see the last few episodes and really want more, and there's the possiblity that I'll get to the end of season 3 and say that I'm content. I suppouse as an anime fan I'm just used to shows actually ending. Kim has had a long ride, more good than bad. The 65 episode policy is a really stupid idea, but 65 episodes is still alot of episodes. I mean most originally created anime shows (not based on manga) only go for 26 episodes, and even the epic Gundam series end at somewhere between 45 and 50 episodes. Even in this country Cartoon Network (who most of us like) end most of their shows at 52 episodes (more than 13 episodes before Disney does). So anyway I have to say that Kim's life has been a long one for a modern cartoon series.

And I hope you don't leave after this year Tusconcoyote. After all we still have lots of great cartoons on the air right now. Even Disney Channel has a promising new comedy/action show with Jake Long. It may never replace Kim Possible in your mind but I think it has alot of merit on its own.

It's a shame that this is happening (though not a surprise to me). At the very least, I hope the show's ending will satisfy KP fans (even that might not be good enough).

tc, I really hope that you stay on Toon Zone. I really would hate for you to leave this community. You've been one of the great members on TZ. However, if you want to leave, I won't stop you. At least, think about reconsidering.

I'm sure other fans of other Disney shows who've had their favorite shows canceled share your grief.I share your grief as well. I was just discovering EVEN STEVENS about a month or so before it ended, and had to catch up with everything through reruns. By the time I got back to the point where I first tuned in, I was wanting more episodes and to see it continue, but knew it wasn't. At least things were sort of resolved and wrapped up at the end thanks to the movie. But I share your grief. :) At these with this (admittedly asinine) 65-episode rule, the producers know the ending is coming and can thus craft an appropriate end, as opposed to a show cancelled at the last minute and having no ending as a result.

When are they airing the final episodes? I wanna seem them. I only seen KP a couple of times, is not bad

When are they airing the final episodes? I wanna seem them. I only seen KP a couple of times, is not badThe Final Episode (So The Drama), will be run on April 8th..(However the good news is that due to the Disney Channel runninng the Show out of order, we'll probably have about 6 episodes airing AFTER the April 8th 2005, movie (which odds are will be most likely at 8PM E/P..

but what's left you are wondering? Well here's what we got as far as we know..

#51 Showdown at the Crooked D March 25, 2005
#63 So the Drama Part 1 April 8, 2005*
#64 So The Drama Part 2 April 8, 2005*
#65 So The Drama Part 3 April 8, 2005*
#54 Team Impossible *To Be Announced*
#55 Rappin' Drakken *To Be Announced*
#59 Dimension Twist *To Be Announced*
#60 And The Molerat Will Be CGI *To Be Announced*
#61 Gorilla Fist *To Be Announced*
#62aOverdue (11 Minutes) *To Be Announced*
#62bRoachie (11 Minutes) *To Be Announced*


The Final Episode that the completed as of the 22nd of February was Team Impossible, and in fact odds are if you are looking at the production Order the Episode that will most likely air last will be The Two 11 Minute Episodes (Roachie and Overdue) And from our guesses we're looking at sometiime This Summer probably June or July..(Then of course into repeats, plus the move over to Toon Disney as of April 11th, 2005,..(but we shall see..)

Edited Note: So the Drama is actually going to be a full movie like A Stich in Time was but will be counted as the final Three Episodes..(It's kind of Ironic that The last time this happened, It was in Bob Schooley's and Mark McCorkle's Other Hit series.. Buzz Lightyear of Star Command (however they counted the DTV "The Adventure Begins" as the first 3 Episodes of the series.. (then followed it up with 62 Syndicated episodes.go figure.

It's a shame, it really is. I didn't watch KP as much as some other members here but I do think it was a top notch show and I am positive it could have gone on much longer. It is an outright shame that production on something that is still so well liked is being butchered only because of the ignorance of a few people in high places, places that they don't belong in at all.

I will admit that 65 episodes is a good run for a modern cartoon. But then again, does that not say something about the way the networks are being run these days? It is completley unnaceptable IMO.

At least CN will allow shows to go on if the demand is there, they do not have an episode limit, 52 is just what they sort of "shoot for".

So long KP, you will be remembered. :(

It sad to see this great show to end. Good thing I recored every episode that aired so I can watch, and have great memories anytime I want. I real say this after the final episode air we all will miss Dr. D. because he always make us laugh in some ways.

Since you guys seem to have forgotten the 65 episode limit discussion ban so soon, this thread is closed and I invite you to read the updated rule again (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=133886).

Bring it up again, and official warnings go out.
