A Letter to Cartoon Network

Friday, June 30, 2010; 1:26:34 PM


Dear Cartoon Network Studios,

I must admit that Cartoon Network is the best cartoon animation studios ever. Ranging from all different styles and ideas of animation, you have a great variety of cartoons. Nickelodeon has recently been doing less animated shows and more live-action comedies. I do not mean any offense, but their few animated shows, like SpongeBob, and Fanboy and ChumChum have loosed their hilarious luster. And their other corporation, Nicktoons Network has nothing on but reruns of old shows. To sum it up, if you want quality cartoons, look up Cartoon Network.

Now, a few years ago, back in early 2002, Invader Zim, a favorite of mine, was discontinued, or canceled due to disagreements between Jhonen Vasquez and the Nickelodeon Company. Leaving one season and half a season finished, the show still had many episodes left unfinished. I think the show had the great potential to be a great television show. When it was cancelled, the characters were still growing, and it was winding itself into an exciting plot. The show should have not been canceled. It was a thrilling ride, a comedy hit, and an exciting hit for viewers. Despite such a short run, if you browse on the internet, you’ll see that it had attracted so many fans, yet also negative criticisms. Many loved Invader Zim. On youtube, many have even created their own fan interpretations of the show. Still, some said the show had a sort of a dark setting. But the plot would soon change that; according to a wiki article, there was going to be a massive war between all species. And to come to think of it, it has a similar concept to Avatar: the last air bender and Ben 10: Alien Force and no one dislikes those shows. I believe that if the show continued on, people could see the same.

I know you can probably guess where all this is going. And I doubt I am neither the first nor the last to ask this favor: Can to please, PLEASE consider making some sort of deal with Nickelodeon to allow that you may continue the show? I know this is complicated, seeing you and Nickelodeon are rival animators, but PLEASE consider. Or at least split the profits? You could always assemble the old animators and creators of the show. If you look at it this way, you can see this comes with benefits for you too. By restarting Invader Zim again, you can also gain more long-lost viewers that have been hoping ever since that the show would return. (Some have even continued farther by assembling their own rebellions, fan sites, and pledges of support for the show could return.) By restoring the show, you can also get some profits of sales. You can see that the DVD release has renewed interest and re-evaluation of the show, receiving high scores and sales. And also, by renewing the series, you also draw other Nickelodeon viewers to watching the station too.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE and PLEASE reconsider airing Invader Zim on your station. Create a deal, or discuss any other legal matters to return the series on Cartoon Network. If Possible. Please.

Thank You,

TheKeeperhaven
