Invader Zim. *sniff*
Oh, I know it's back, I was just talking about shows that "were" cancelled. I've see two of the four movies so far, and enjoyed them quite a bit. I've heard that an Arrested Development movie is in production, but not sure if that's true.

Oh, the live-action version of The Tick was another great one that went before it's time.

Inv. Zim was on Cartoon Network I believe. It was a cartoon by the same guy who wrote the "Johny the Homicidal Maniac" Comics. IT was canceled after a much debated "pigs world" episode which depicted a reverse meat factory in which pigs ruled and humans were killed.

Ditto on Firefly.

It was a Nickelodeon cartoon about an Alien trying to take over the world, and it was on of the greatest cartoons ever.

I just wiki'd it, and it was on Nickelodeon, and first aired in March of 2001, which explains why I knew nothing about it (17 at the time).

Firefly, American Gothic (some poor plot choices in the later half, but I think another season would have gotten it back on track), Veronica Mars (the third season wasn't great, but they could have at least finished the storyline).

"Bleh! That's the slatiest thing I've ever eaten! And I once ate a whole bowl of salt!"


Futurama was great.

No worries bro, I just wiki'd it cuz someone suggested that I should, and I was curious. I would have thought that it was on CN as well...

Ever read Johnny the Homicidal Maniac? The guy, Jhonen Vasquez, got his start in a Goth mag I used to read called Carpe Noctem. Johnny was his original comic. He also had comics called "Sqee" and "I Feel Sick". I you like Invader Zim you should check out all of Vaspuez's stuff.
