Codename KND Series Finale January 21st (Spoilers Included)

The series finale of KND airs on January 21st on Cartoon Network, but the episode premiered in December in the Phillapeens.

Spoiler:

At first, I thought the idea was a little too much like a throwaway season two plot, but then the twists kept coming, and I enjoyed it more on a second viewing. All of the decisions Warburton made lately with the characters all made sense here, and the live-action portion was an innovative idea.

I still prefer "Operation: T.R.E.A.T.Y" as a finale though, as it had the scale and pace of a KND episode, this seemed like an old-school story, with a final touching epilouge. It also serves as an excellent means of foreshadowing the live-action KND movie

This makes me very sad. It was a lovely series. Never seemed to get to watch as many of the episodes as I would've liked, but I'll miss it just the same.

Yeah, it did rather well, saving CN when most viewers had "given up" on it, and paving the way for stronger content than it's had in several years. KND and "Grim" really paved the way for shows with substance and sharper edge humour again

I didn't start watching KND until middle to late last year when CN would air reruns every now and then. At first, I wasn't sure if I'd keep watching it after a few episodes, but I've now grown very attached to this series. Numbuh 1 has become my favorite character, for many obvious reasons.

The finale was interesting, if not just a little cheesy with the live-action. I'll admit I was a little teary-eyed near the end. Emotional scenes can kind of get to me. :embarass:

I watched it and I have to admit, I liked it...especially the ending...but I will say this much...

Spoiler:

It was blatantly telegraphed throughout the entire series

Although I have yet to watch it. At least it sounds like a fitting ending to the series. I liked it quite a bit, to be truthful. Great stories, insane weapon designs...oh, what I would have given to work with them. Oh well...the show had a great run. :)

Man, I really wish CN warners or whomever would start releasing these on DVD. I'm still waiting for the movie they chickened out of theatrically releasing.

It is a shame that CN has slipped down to just a random little network that may still have cartoons on it by the end of the year. Fosters is alright, but the rest of what they have smacks of no effort. Especially that Gym partner is a Monkey thing. I haven't seen Squirrel Boy yet, though. I do like the series creator, Everrett Peck. But expecting Duckman style humor out of that is out of the question, considering how Camp Lazlo turned out. I like the Character designs on both shows, but character designs do not a show make.

Transformers Animated and Ben 10 are awesome.

I hear positive things about both, but I can't get into Ben at all. It just isn't for me. But I'm talking about something a little wackier. Something that's just flat out wacky comedy. They seem to have lost the formula for weird stuff like that.

Has anyone seen Chowder? That show's kinda alright.

Chowder's a decent show. And I sort of enjoyed the one episode of Transformers I saw. I can't get behind Ben 10 at all though, even though I like the theme song.

Heh, you're not alone. I had to wipe a tear away, too. :embarass:
