What's the world coming to?
I don't want to have to tell my grandchildren, "When I was your age, all of my pets were actual living things! Not these convoluted robots."

I don't count battery cells and a modified servo motor as convoluted.

I thought they were already marketed for boys even in their original fourm?

Because I thought I saw some boys in the Zhu Zhu Pets commercials.

What boy would buy a product that is a cute hamster that runs around in circles. Sounds like a product made for 6 year old girls to me.


But I guess the boys in the commercial were a prior marketting technique to go to boys. Similar to how in Cabbage Patch kids commercials they put boys hugging them in an attempt to make them look like they are for boys too.

rehashing the rights of already existing stuff, is cheaper then paying for new.

True. But the show doesn't suck so I don't care :).

According to Wikipedia, it didn't air until 2002 - You don't think it went downhill before then?

Well. A lot of the truly funny TV shows like Cat Dog and stuff were canceled prior to that date... but it only got really bad around the time of 05 or 04.

Holy crap. Major business tactics going on here. The makers of, "Zhu zhu pets" The handicapped tiny cloth covered robots that run around in circles have thought of a brilliant idea.

"Oh my god, our product only markets to girls. Let's give these little pieces of crap some weapons and armor and market them to boys"

And the Kung Zhu pets were born.


As hilarious this idea is... Pretty good idea though. Funny how people look at marketting like this.




Gives me the idea, someone should dress up a carebear with nunchucks and samurai armor and you get an easy 5 million dollars.


Discuss your own interesting market ideas.

Okay, stop quoting older posts so the title can be fixed.

Anyway, I'm very excited now to have one of my favorite shows back.

The producers got drunk when their spouses left them, canceled every good show and replaced them with movie spinoffs, crappy CGI acid trips, and the occasional video game spinoff.
The same thing happened with Cartoon Network.

Bingo.

Anyway, it looks like the hilarious German kid Doppy is coming with Sheen.

Holy stuff, now I have something new to watch instead of Spongebob whenever I watch nick. But even that is getting sort of old.

The adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy genius was canceled 4 years ago, but it seems like in november there is going to be a spinoff with Sheen, who was personally my favorite character.


forget yeah. Maybe Nickelodeon is going to ressurect good television. I mean, there were things wrong with the show, but it was pretty funny and was back when Nick didn't suck.

Nick Started to die in 2004. CN died a horrible death the day Tunami was canceled.

Whoops. Meant Toonami*.

Also, I hate how stuffty music is now more popular then good music. I haven't been this pissed off since I was searching on youtube for the Black Sabbath song Paranoid, and the first video was Jonas Brothers. What was even worse was that the Jonas Brother's song sucks.
