Oh my god, have you seen the episode where Squidward says his house is fancier than Squilliams on that TV show, so the TV show says they'll be at Sqiudward's in an hour. So Squidward decides to move all of his furniture around and make his house fancy, but Spongebob decides to get in the way. There's a scene that follows with them moving a couch, and Spongebob rips Squidward's toenail off. Oh god, I almost puked.
Nickelodeon failed the moment they took "Invader Zim" off the air. Best. Show. Ever.
This is why I have The science channel up all day. Or I just pop in a DVD.
Why was that cancelled anyways?
Despite the show's popularity and extended fanbase ranging from kids to adults, the show was axed after the 9/11 tragedy. It was beleived that a show featuring a megalomaniacal alien attempting to destroy the world was 'too sensitive a subject' to be showing after the 9/11 attacks. Unfortunately the show was cut in the height of its popularity. Most fans of the show agree that using the 9/11 tragedy as an excuse to cancel the show was a bit underhanded, as well as a bit of overreaction. Invader Zim has not been picked up again and there are currently no indications of the show returning.Note that there may be other reasons given for the show's cancellation, but supposedly the 9/11 tragedy was cited by Nickelodeon as the primary reason why the show was cut.
Nevermind, just found out. Wow, our government's stupid.
