Yeah I think generally speaking, when ever a show moves like that it tends to lose a bit of it's viewership.

Wolverine and the X-Men? This is news to me.

Please share info.

Is it focused on Wolverine and if so why?

Where can I see some footage of this show?

I'm to the point now, I don't care about the animation, so long as the show stays on the air.

This season has been very good so far (all three episodes,) and it feels so much like seasons 1-5, that I am very happy with it.

Unfortunately, it's another one of those series that is made in the US, but aired in many other places almost a year before we get it.

Marvel continue to be real incompetants with how they schedule these shows. I gurantee you that, thanks to this, ratings in the States wont fair much because the download level of the episodes premiered elsewhere will be high.

The Wikipedia article also spoils the s*it out of the series, so tread carefully...though if you're interested, it's a very loose version of Grant Morrison and Joss Whedon's runs on the title.

So is it supposed to be like that new spiderman show on the CW or something? Meh hopefully it catches the interest of the 90s Xmen cartoon fans. It doesn't really look like it'll be marketed towards those who've only seen Xmen evolution.

And let's not forget there's no where really to put it. It's like there's been a freeze on picking up animated programs, and a sharp swing to live action programing (due mostly to Disney's success). And it's not even just that show... Biker Mice from mars, the new Garfield cartoons... I'm sure there's a bunch of others too.

Speaking of which... I wish Sony would take a good long look at how well the reruns of Spider-Man are doing on the CW... maybe they won't decapitate the show in the second season.

No. 4kids' license with Fox expires after this year so 4kidsTV is dead by next summer.

I have to say I have only watched the firt 2 episodes online today. I had NO interest in watching FF so this new show looks not bad, I do like the eye balls and fun animation.

I guess the question is do we want the show to run to long and run out of good ideas and end on a bad note rather than let it go while we still had a good time?

"Back to the Sewer" is pretty good so far and the closest thing we'll get to 2k3,I really like that the turtles have eye balls now too...gives them a classic feel.

I don't really like the Splinter stuck in Cyberspace thing, its too similar to Fast Forward with all the future style tech and neon settings. For a minute there I thought every episode would take place in Cyberspace with a new Cyber-villan for the turtles to fight every week. Thank goodness its not and that Shredder will eventually make it into the real world.

Ya know I never even finished watching "Fast Forward",it was so boring I just stopped watching afterwhile...which has never happend to me before. When I love something as much as TMNT I usually follow it through if only to see how it turns out. But thats how bad "FF" was,I didnt even wanna finish it.

The second half of FF had much better episodes than the first. "Enter the Jammerhead" was lame, but I liked the rest of the eps

Okay, if this IS true, then what's going to happen to the SECOND season of BMFM 2K8, and the rest? (INCLUDING FF?) Will they just move to the CW4Kids, or what?

(IF they don't, or if FOX itself doesn't pick them up, I'M going to be one MAJORLY p*ssed of l'il Mouse! ESPECIALLY after WAITING for the new Biker Mice series for so danged long!)

Hopefully they will up UNTIL 4Kids' liscence with 'em runs out. After that, I dunno. Hopefully, CW4Kids will pick them up. Hopefully.

You all know the entire show was supposed to be like that, right? And they were supposed to have little kiddy versions of themselves running around as well. Having a couple episodes of Cyberchase added into the series was a big compromise. Especially since the toy company wanted to add that type of thing in... dispite the fact they toys seem like a contractual obligation, and they're only making them to say they made them, and they have nothing to do with the actual Cyberstuff on the show... but they wanted a Cyberscramble for Splinter in there somehow.

I think what's sucking the ratings for BTTS is that they should have put Chaotic 2 on the CW, and kept Dinosaur King back on Fox. Having it air after BTTS would have given that show a good lead in. Kids would have stayed and watched for the following show. Which explains why 8th time reruns of "Future Shell Shock" are doing so well.

Wait, am I reading this right? Back to the Sewer actually did BETTER than the new Chaotic last weekend, the first weekend in which they went head-to-head?

SCORE!

Ninja Turtles are whooping ASS in the ratings. Hard for me to believe 4Kids is seriously thinking of ending their strongest show. I mean look at the past two weeks' ratings; the new episodes are completely dominating Chaotic. It's easily 4Kids biggest breadwinner right now.

And I'm pretty sure that statistics also show that people like bread. Ergo, keep those loaves on the table, 4Kids!

Awesome news seems people have finally started to move over to CW and have fully accepted it as 4Kids prime block. Good to see almost all the Turtles shows doing good. As for Chaotic starting to slip I'm not shocked that show was always on borrowed time.

Now heres my qestion to 4Kids since Turtles and Spider-Man are pretty much there only shows that get the best raitings WHY IN THE HELL ARE THEY GETTING RID OF THEM!!!!!?????
