Invader Zim

[Spitfire]

I saw the box set for the whole series at my work for 24 bucks the other day so I picked it up. I ended up getting it for 14 with my discount.

Anyways I had seen the show a few times when it first aired and I always remembered it being weird and funny. I just finished watching the whole thing and I have to say I enjoyed it quite a bit. The humor is way out there but that's what makes it unique. I love how it spoofs how utterly stupid modern society is.

I remember hearing rumors the show as canceled because "Johnny The Homicidal Manic" made an appearance in the show but I see those rumors were nothing but lies. I actually read why the show was canceled, it had really poor ratings.

But I guess the cult following spoke up and they aired the 6 lost season 2 episodes last year. They had a planned series finale and made for TV movie as well. To bad Nick didn't keep making it, they asked for a more adult series, they got exactly what they asked for. I guess it's doomed to be re-run over and over again. Atleast it saw a DVD release, unlike some of their series.

Watching this reminded me of how I used to like "Angry Beavers" cause the voice actor for Zim did Dagget on that show. Course that's not on DVD yet.

Anyways did anyone else like this series?
