    RIP Invader Zim

    Like This Thread!
    Oh maaaaaaan. . .

    Just in from the rec.arts.animation Usenet Newsgroup

    Invader Zim just had its production shut down. Several unfinished episodes, including the long awaited Christmas special will never be completed, much less shown. The staff, who were desperately trying to get as much finished as they coud, were given 24 hours to vacate the studio. . .






    Aaaaaaauuugh!!

    That sucks. Nickelodeon and Disney are supposed to be two of the top companies when it comes to kids, yet they keep tossing their best stuff down the crapper. (Nick by canceling great shows like ZIM and Disney by sh*ting on their movies with inferior sequels)

    Ugh...Nick has hit and altime low.

    I mean, forcing everyone in the ZIM studio to leave and cutting the Christmas Special that they promised (?) to air?! They are so doomed.

    PS, Tobias, you make the best of points.
    I think Scooby-Doo is knida over-rated and all of the HB Dogs should be praised.
    Wouldn't it be great if their could be more Peanuts specials on DVD?

    Or what?! Were they going to get invaded by the Nickelodeon Gestapo? Christ, this sounds like something you'd hear in Cold War Eastern Europe or something.

    Anyways, this sucks beyond words.

    Jeez, was Nickelodeon in that BIG of a rush to turn the Invader ZIM studio space into another Klasky Csupo closet space...

    Rest in Peace Invader ZIM, you were truly one of the great ones...

    As I said once before, at one point, they were implying that it was referencing terrorism, so that may have something to do with the cancellation of the show...

    Words alone couldn't express my outrage right now. But I'll try anyway.

    To the head execs at Nickelodeon-

    Follow this 4 step process real quick:
    1. Go to Hell.
    2. Burn in Hell.
    3. Rot in Hell.
    4. Get reincarnated, and repeat.

    Thank you.

    EDIT:

    I knew it was cancelled, but I was under the impression that the crew would finish the remaining episodes, and have them all air. Was this not the case?

    I never thought it was possible but I hate Nick even more now.
    I guess this means that we'll be seeing Jimmy's ugly CGI face pop
    into all the different Nick shows like he's the all-important god of the
    network. God, I hate Nick.

    We all know The use of caps to express emotion is a childish no-no, but on this occasion, the heck with it!


    FIRST REN AND STIMPY,

    THEN THE ANGRY BEAVERS,

    THEN IT WAS HEY ARNOLD!

    NOW INVADER ZIM GETS THE CHOP,

    AND TALENTLESS WASTES LIKE RUGRATS, AND SPONGEBOB GET MORE SEASONS AND SPIN-OFFS?

    THAT IS IMPUDENCE!


    I can't BELIEVE this! Way to go, Nick - you just lost any and all of my respect for you. You guys suck is three very specific ways: so hard, so bad, and wicked bad! if there was a World Series of sucking, Nick would have, like, a hundred rings!


    WHY? WHY!???

    forced to vacate the premises?!?!?!
    for what to make room for more rugrats cartoons
    i admit, having a show teetering on the edge of extinction doesn't give nick the right to push them out completely
