Actually, I don't want every show cancelled on Nick. I just don't get the point of Rabbids Invasion because it's just not my cup of tea and has no plot for it.

I don't really want Rabbid cancelled either. Nor do I want it to go on. I'm pretty much neutral on it as far as that goes. I've never played the original games they were in, so my experience with them is purely through TMNT.

And seeing as how their connection to TMNT is being in a video game where they absolutely did not belong, when there were so many other characters that would have been great to have there...yeah, I think you can see why I don't care for the little buggers.

It seriously doesn't. I saw the first four eps. I actually like the video game, but then I watched it and........... It has absolutely no point.

Not really. Let's take a look at their other shows, shall we?

SpongeBob - Must I say anything? It's been exaggerated to the point it just isn't funny. The characters have become so unlikable! The stories and comedy are absolutely retarded, heck, the only good thing about THIS is the animation.

Fairly OddParents - Pretty good. They never order new episodes for it though -.-

Rabbids - I've said it already. It's a bunch of dry physical comedy filled with jokes that have been used a million times.

Sanjay and Craig - An attempt at Ren and Stimpy. A bad attempt at Ren and Stimpy. It's mostly a gross-out show with most jokes very cringe-able (if that's even a word...). And like almost every show we've talked about (except for FOP), it's dry, dry, dry humor.

Penguins of Madagascar - Eh. It's kinda the same formula over and over. It just gets very stale fast. Literally, it's like the TV equivalent of "Planes", it's just the most average thing I've ever seen.

Kung Fu Panda - Yay. Great action scenes. Honestly, this one's a big letdown over its movie series. First off, I gotta say, the replacement voice actors they found for these characters are pretty believable. Other than that, the action scenes are pretty cool, but most stories aren't that great and the comedy normally falls flat on its face, but when it's good, it's GOOD. So, it's okay.

Legend of Korra - Must I say anything? Epicness. The only GREAT series I've talked about so far. Moving on.

Monsters vs Aliens - Like Penguins of Madagascar, it's VERY average. However, it's leading more towards the bad side. The comedy is facepalm worthy most of the time. The story is just... stupid. The action is very meh. Moving on.

I don't want to talk about their Live-Action shows. Let me just say it this way: they all SUCK. (I know there's T.U.F.F Puppy (awesome) and Robot and Monster (horrible) but they only make new episodes on Nicktoons).

Okay, do you now get my riff here? Nickelodeon only has two awesome shows: TMNT and Korra. It's not like we want all competition eliminated, we just want more of Nick's shows to be more appealing, because we know that Nickelodeon can do MUCH better.

Uh, you left out Winx Club which is probably the only other show other than Korra and TMNT that I watch on Nick.

Sponge Bob- Needs to end.

Fairly Odd Parents- Needs to end.

Sanjay and Greg- Horrible show, needs to end now.

Monsters vs Aliens- not bad but wish it was at least half as good as the movie.

Rabbids- Horrible show, needs to end now.

The Legend of Korra- Awesome show.

Ku-Fu Panda- Very repetitive and not nearly as good as the movies.

Penguins of Madagascar- not bad.

lol Sorry 'bout that. I thought it ended, but I guess it didn't. I never really watched it, but I'll take your word for it.

No, it hasn't officially ended, though they did start a new season and haven't aired many new episodes yet. Maybe they will once Halloween ends since Nick has been focusing on that.

Sanjay and Craig? Can't stand that show. I have to listen to all that screaming for about 6 or so mins up until TMNT comes on. That's mostly what modern day cartoons consist of. Kids running around screaming about nothing and random Family Guyish humor. SpongeBob was funny back when I was in Highschool but not anymore. I'm not saying every toon has to be dark and gritty. I really really enjoy Phineas and Furb. I actually laugh at the jokes in that show. That's about the only funny toon I can sit and watch these days. Rather pathetic, I know. Wondering if my parents thought the same about Ren and Stimpy/Rocko's Modern Life when I was a kid. I think I could even watch those two shows these days. Not sure as I haven't seen those two in years.

Of those shows listed, I've only really seen a few.

Spongebob - Never really cared for it, at all. I like quite a few of the voice actors in it, oddly enough though.
Fairly Oddparents - Great show, though I think it may be jumping the shark...not too sure about the fairy dog.
Sanjay and Craig - Not interested.
Monsters V.S. Aliens - Not really interested here either.
Rabbids - Bleeeehhhh.
Korra - Great so far, not quite what I wanted from it, but still loving every bit of it.
Kung-Fu Panda - Pretty good, not one I go out of my way to watch, but it's okay.
Penguins - Pretty good IMO. But then again, they were the stars of the movies for me anyway.

In regards to Monsters VS Aliens. Yeah its not as good as the movie. S for SpongeBob, it needs to go. I do agree with the one poster about the characters not being likable. Patrick really gets on my nerves. Sometimes I want to punch him. I don't think we have anything to worry about with TMNT. The cartoon is very popular.

Wanting a show canceled is just super selfish. You aren't watching the show, so it doesn't affect you at all.

I'm confused about the Rabbids though. Were the games really THAT popular that it warranted it having its own series? That's like making a series about Ratchet and Crank.

Can't get the Youtube embed to work right for some reason, but yeah. A Ratchet and Clank movie is coming out soon-ish.

Can't believe people still act like Spongebob is 'holding back' other shows.

Believe me, Nick WISHES that every show they had was as big as Spongebob was and continues to be. They aren't concerned about a show "overshadowing the sponge".

Are you kidding? It's not selfish. In fact, I swear that some of these shows are making kids DUMBER. I'm serious. I'm convinced of that.

Now, mostly, it does affect me. I've seen the uprisings and downfalls of SpongeBob, FOP, and Penguins. Believe me, it's been painful. It's always painful to watch a show go from so good to so bad. If a TMNT show ever turned mind-numbing, horrible, or whatever, I'd want it off the air, too. It's called helping the generation, not being hypocritical.

Now, as for the other shows.... well, I've already described why they need to be gone. But, I'm reasonable. If Nick can build up enough good shows and find the right team, they would have a reason to wipe out S&C, Rabbids, and other mind-numbing shows.

I will say this, however. I think it would be a good business decision to keep SpongeBob on as long as it has great ratings.

The 90's and early 2000's were the best time for cartoons. Most stuff from 2008 onward, with few exceptions, have been crap.

Even most DC and Marvel cartoons have been going to hell lately, and they used to pump out actual quality iterations.
