Harvey Birdman To End?

Michael Ouweleen, creator of Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law , said the popular Adult Swim show would run to 39 episodes total, leaving nine episodes yet to be shown. At the end of that run, the staff may continue to work with Birdman or move on to a new show, Ouweleen said.

If this is true, only Aqua Teen will remain, as Perfect Hair Forever also faces the end. Too bad, this series was by leaps and bounds the true succesor to Space Ghost, and it's premature death because the writers got bored causes a lot of distress.

Then again, maybe the concept of defending obscure HB characters and mutliating them soon depleted itself when they ran out of reference footage and shows, and really did'nt want to go into the Dick Dastardly stuff, the writers made a genuine attempt to go after characters only animation historians would soley care about, and get a laugh that way because those characters belonged to "less than tremendous" efforts. They had the occasional guest star every so often, but not as much.

One thig I could not get enough of was watching an episode of ""Peter Potamus and His Magic Flying Balloon" a few nights ago, I could'nt finish it, not because of the quality, but just because I could'nt see him doing anything else than ask "did you get that thing I sent ya?"

Harvey Birdman is great.. It's so weird.... Man I wish they made more episodes. Alot of good television programming is getting cancelled these days which makes me angry..

We are being replaced with dumb programming like American Idol, Dancing with the stars, skating with the stars and all the other crap.

They got rid of The BRak show too...and Sealab stopped being funny a long time ago*No clue if they even show it anymore*. I never like Aqua Teen. I stopped watching Adult Swim a long time ago.

Sea Lab was cancelled awhile back. CN seems to cancel all their good shows whenever they get bored. This is why I hate CN.

This is also why I stopped watching CN.

Don'f forget:
Duets (Prof. Singers sing with American Idol rejects...from the mind of Simon Cowell! )
American Inventors (People who think they have good ideas will be judged on their idea and whoever wins gets their idea patented and stuff....Did I mention Simon Cowell thought this one up? Well...he did...)

But anyways...I've only seen a couple eps of Harvey Birdman....seems like an amusing show.

Yeah, same here. I always think that when I see him.

I always wondered how good Harvey Birdman is to someone who didn't grow up watching Hannah Barbara toons. Alot of what was funny was all the obscure references to the old H/B shows.

Dude, you got banned for a reason. Don't give Kittie that kind of attitude. Especially if you're not sure she was the one who banned you.

I thought it already stopped new eps.
they need to do some silliness with ol Space Case...er Ghost...I miss hearing George's hero voice, he cracks me up!

It's not that CNW makes the eps of these crazy show, it's Williams Street. Yes, that building is real. I've seen it. It's ON Williams Street....in Atlanta.
There's only so much you can do with the idea such as Sealab or Havey...I like them to but they wanna go make some new stuff with other characters.

He was making some cameos on Perfect Hair..but according to sources, THATS' getting pulled also.

Lowe is the definitive Space Ghost for me, every time I read the serious comic, his lines are in HIS voice...

Dude, you made the same typo twice in the same post. How does that happen?

Oh, and you gotta chill out, homeboy. Kittie doesn't deserve that treatment.
