Even though I don't like Ben 10 that much, I'd think a plumbers show would be cool. It'd be about Ben's Dad becoming a plumber and would have the original battles against Bill Gaks among other things.
What do you think?

That does sound interesting but CN's already is doing a Ben 10 spin-off about Ben and Gwen as teenagers mentoring kids with super powers.

I think some would argue that it's a rip-off of the M.I.B. cartoon or M.I.B. in general. It would be nice to get more backstory into The Plumbers though.

That idea thought did pop into my mind, but I really just want to see more of the Plumbers. Maybe they could feature an entire episode of that Grampa guy just retelling his days as a Plumber.

:confused: When was Ben's dad ever featured on the show? Admittedly I don't watch Ben 10 all that much, but I thought it was his grandfather Max who used to be an alien buster. Was his dad in the movie or something?

His parents will be featured in the Live-Action Movie
Maybe Making aMovie With Ben working with the Plumbers might work better..
They already have two plumbers shows: Super Mario World, and the Super Mario Bros Super Show.

Yes, A Plumbers Show would do great as an origins show to fill in all of the gaps left by Ben 10.

Really?! I haven't heard. Will it be running alongside Ben 10 or replacing it? Either way, that idea sounds awesome.

It'll be replacing it, as the original Ben 10 series only has nine episodes left.

I'd rather have it where it shows Grandpa Max in his younger days as a Plumber with his friends. I get the feeling the parents don't know much about Grandpa Max's wild past, though that might be changed if Ben doesn't have to keep the Omnitrix secret from them.

No, we are talking in the context of Ben 10 (as in Grampa Max)

Can't... hold it... inside any longer... :lol:
A show about the Plumbers would only be a Men In Black rip-off to some people and would only serve as a prequel to Ben 10, which is either good or bad depending on how you feel about it.

I was thinking along those lines myself.

Actually only three episodes left. See Ben 10 has 4 seasons with 49 regular episodes, and the movie "Secret Of The Omnitrix" which Cartoon Network considers to be three episodes (sort of like how the Foster's Pilot movie was the first three episodes of it's series). So there's only one more left with "Ken 10" having aired: The one where Ben goes back to school and the two part series finale called "Ben 10 Vs the Negative 10".

Sure this is a joke question, but Mario. Max dosen't have the overall physical strength or agility Mario has (hey he may be somewhat chubby but with how much he's been stomping on Goombas and popping question blocks and... inprobably running as fast as Sonic in the Olympic Game coming out) and if you want to bust out weapons, Max' alien gadgets wouldn't stand a chance against the Super Final Smash Fire Blast of death.
Eh, I don't think there would ever be a Plumbers Series. If for only one reason: CN may love to market Ben 10 to death, but mainly with the KID characters, not the adult ones. I mean really what's the last CN (not AS) series that starred actual grown ups and not kids? I'm pretty sure it was Justice League Unlimited and obviously CN thinks kids prefer kid heroes and not adult ones (why do you think they make those annoying "fall is something grown ups invented" ads). Meh, best chance for a Plumbers series is an episode of the actual Ben 10 spinoff coming next year. Maybe the history of the plumbers will have something to do with the new kids heroes adventure or something.

Right, I don't care if it is an M.I.B. Ripoff, As long as it fills in plot holes, I'm fine with it.

...You do realize that post was made back during the summer, right?
Because it's honestly stupid to correct an old post like that, considering six episodes have aired since I said that.
