Spongebob - DEAD? NO!

[Lonestarr]

Oh, so THAT's why. I guess it's for the best. As for those shows that were mentioned, there were a few post-John K. "Ren & Stimpy" episodes that could be called gems ("My Shiny Friend" and "An Abe Divided" to name a couple"), but the post-Partible eps of "Johnny Bravo" are unwatchable.

Also, the last part of my previous post could still be used for my feelings about taking "Angry Beavers" off the air.

What? We can't blame this one on stupid execs? (pout)

SAID BY THE MAD HATTER: What? We can't blame this one on stupid execs? (pout)

Apparently not...I'm as surprised as you are. But don't worry. KWB is still doing lots of stupid things, so all is not lost yet! Too bad I don't remember any particuraly bad ones at the moment...but then, there are too many to list.

SpongeBob is one of my favorite modern shows. However, I think everyone knows this already, but NEW episodes continue to play on Nick's Totally Twisted Telly. I heard from an insider (whose name will not be revealed) that there's about another ten new episodes left, but more episodes were planned. New eps. of SpongeBob and the gang air on Fridays at 8PM/7PM Central. I really, really, really love this show, and my heart would be broken if it was cancelled for GOOD. However, I don't think that should happen any time soon. I advise taping the SpongeBob cartoons, but I won't advise TIME-TAPING them. Here's a schedule of when SBSP is on:

Mondays-Fridays
I'd advise taping the first showing live, at about ten to 5PM (4PM Central)
8-8:30PM/7-7:30PM Central

Saturdays-Sundays
10-11AM/9-10AM Central

SBSP is occasionally played on GAS (hee-hee ), and sometimes has a second hour in the afternoon on Saturdays. Too bad it wasn't the SpongeBob Squarepants Columbus Day Marathon

Well, I doubt I'll be watching Nick ever again.

Now we can all look forward to new Rugrats specials! Rugrats Invent Peanutbutter, Rugrats VS Osama Bin Laden, and Rugrats Retire!

GAH!
That show bugs me.

 

[BourgeoisBuffoon]

Wait...MORE specials! AH-HA-HA-HA!

Rugrats' Presidents' Day!
Rugrats' Spring Break Special (or did they do this already?)
Rugrats' Christmas EVE Special
A very Rugrats Kwannza

If they don't make new Rugrats specials or marathons, they're going to make another Klasky-Csuspo show...trust me. TAB went, we got Wild Thornberrys and As Told By Ginger.

...at least SBSP has some more eppys still new to go. And yeah, it's going to be reruns for a while, but that means I'll be able to catch up on the eppys. I never seem to know what's going on in toons' plots lately...

Yeah, maybe we will see a spinoff of Rugrats, how about "Rugrats Z"! Yes we will see Tommy Chuckie, and Angelica will fight against evil world threats! HA HA HA!!!


Ok that's sounds stupid, I need sleep and I'll get up at 2:00pm

 

[meemerzwarner]

they should have done the "Rugrats FINALLY Retire" one in ... gezz... 93???? i think its time... hahaha

We also need a "baby" version, like Muppet Babies, A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, and TTA. So stay tuned for Fetusrats!

As I understand it, a spinoff where they're all ten years old is being planned. Yecch. Still should be better than Rocket Power.

 

[Joe Tully]

Well, Rugrats did that "All Growed Up" special, but there's been talk about doing that as a series. I haven't watched Nick in a long time, so I dunno if that would be a good thing or a bad thing. It sounds kind of like the reverse of the "Muppet Babies" trend that don Jaime mentioned.

 

[Nftnat]

This is all very interesting. Reminds me of something going on in Road Rovers fanhood circles. The current hot fanfic series is a spinoff of the Space Rovers series, Space Rovers Galatea. Recently a few fics have emerged which take place 20 years in the future (the Galatea's future; it itself takes place anywhere from 2002-2007 or so). If a few fans can come up with a concurrent series set in the previous series' future, why not the gang @ Klasky-Csupo? Imo Rugrats borrowed a lot from Muppet Babies, the only animated series to win the Emmy four years in a row. I really liked Muppet Babies, & I'm noticing a lot of copying. Some things are changed, like we can actually see the adults in Rugrats (hey! Maybe Cow & Chicken borrowed from Muppet Babies too!). MBs did have a bit of a rivalry with TTA, not unlike the one between Rrs & A! And,... heaven help me, I'm becoming interested in the Rugrats, particularly the later eps. Blame the fanfics over @ Fanfiction.net I need help; I'm slipping by the day. Hey Arnold, now this; what next, Rocket Power? Like I said, I need help.

>< Rugrats, Rugrats, RUGRATS! Is that the only show Nick cares about?? I agree, there are way too many Rugrats specials. What is it now, one for every holiday? I admit, I did like this show at one point, but after about a year, the "babies" plot started to get really old. And the "All Growed Up" thing. What, did they play that 10000 times? o.o; Sheesh....and you notice how Nick never sells Spongebob videos, or ZIM videos, or Hey Arnold videos? They only seem to care about the Rugrats. *sigh* And I really will miss Spongebob...I really will.

SpongeBob has a single out - the theme with "Painty the Pirate and Kids," the songs from "Texas," "F.U.N.," and some others. It was listed as a single and had seven tracks. Hang on....

Here it is!

1: Spongebob Squarepants Theme - (featuring Paintly The Pirate And Kids)

2: Loop De Loop - (featuring Ween)

3: Texas Song - (featuring Sandy Cheeks/Junior Brown)

4: Pre-Hibernation - (featuring Pantera)

5: Ripped Pants - (featuring Spongebob And The Losers)

6: F.U.N. Song - (featuring Spongebob And Plankton)

7: Spongebob Scaredy Pants - (featuring The Ghastly Ones)

Not real complete - Tiny Tim sang "Having a Wonderful Time" in the pilot and there was an '80s arena rock song called "Sweet Victory" that debuted recently. Maybe there'll be a follow-up.

All I know is, I'm writing some harsh letters to Nickelodeon!

Death to the evil Rugrats Empire!!!!!!

I predict "Rugrats in Space" is next......

 

[Nftnat]

Be of good cheer, y'all. I have employed the one means which is guaranteed to sink Rugrats, one which has been proven to work time & time again. The method? I like the show. I take you back to 1999, when I discovered A! & TTA; later that year KWB pulled the shows, as did Nick. I liked Pinky & the Brain, just after it was pulled. I discovered Road Rovers last year, & was fortunate that it ran long enough afterward for me to get all of the eps on tape. I discovered Histeria last year & we know what happened then. Similar storied can be told re. Superman, Batman, Men In Black, Batman Beyond, etc. And a couple of months ago I discovered Hey Arnold, which is about to run out of eps. Every show I like gets cancelled; now I find myself liking Rugrats. I wish this correlation did not exist, but I cannot dispute what is right in front of me. As John Adams said, facts are stubborn things. So don't worry about Rugrats running rampant; as to the other shows I apologize. I don't know what I can do about this; maybe I'm under a curse in that area. End.

Hmm... a clever plan, Nftnat... a Murphy's Law-type countermeasure... By gum, it just might work....
