Say your goodbyes to Totally Spies

[Burgundy Ranger]

According to ABC Family's September schedule, Totally Spies will have its last airing on Friday, Sept. 13.

A new mid-morning lineup premieres on Sept. 3. New alignment of the same shows and a removal of both airings of "It's Itsy Bitsy Time."

A new afternoon lineup debuts on Sept. 16. Braceface is the only animated show left. State of Grace and two airing of 7th Heaven are added.

I thought there was a bit of a following for TS and it sure did get its share of promos, even during the morning kids block.

Whoa, hold on. Before anybody decides we should write the obituary for this series, wouldn't it be a good idea to contact ABC Family and Marathon to see what the status of the series actually is? I mean, last year, the series didn't premiere until after the annual "13 Days of Halloween" event. A similar situation may be occuring now. Besides, running the same 26 episodes over and over again at the start of the fall season gives the impression there won't be any new episodes at all IMO.

And it does have a following. Ever check out Time Warner San Diego's webpage, where they list the top TV shows on each cable net for the quarter? Check out this webpage:

In the 2nd quarter, outside of the Spider-man special Memorial Day marathon, Totally Spies was the highest rated animated series, and those numbers definitely sound like national numbers. I have serious doubts that it's "totally gone" from ABC Family.

I'll retract from the "it's all over" part of my post. But the ABCFam info says it's off the schedule "until further notice."

I don't doubt the following. Just surprised to see it on a temporary hiatus.

As far as I know, there are 26 episodes left, including the conclusion to the cliffhanger "A Spy is Born."

I'm betting ABC Family just does not know where to put it on Saturday morning. Should it be included in the action block, or be kept in the current (although lame) "it's all about you..." campaign? Airing the new episodes during the week will get old in a hurry.

We'll see. It has a large fanbase, I don't think it has completely disappeared.

Later.

I certainly hope it comes back this fall--hopefully in November. My favorite actress is former Black Cat herself, Jennifer Hale.

I still like Clover. Even if she gets a little ditzy sometimes.
