I'm sure most of you will agree with me on this one.
What is n5d25d90 ranting about this time? The two things that everyone wishes were human beings so they can punch these two in the face.
So now it's about time we punch Tweedle-Dumb and Tweedle-Dumber.
Let's start with Tweedle-Dumb: Nickelodeon. Now, I really had a hard time figuring out which one was the "Dumber" of the two, so I just went with the order I listed them earlier.
Here's the deal: Our favorite little cat-based Mexican superhero (I had to say Mexican 'cause otherwise Catman would fit that category too) has been cancelled, or at least that's what I read on the internet, so the truth in it is still kinda sketchy, but knowing Nickelodeon... it probably was.
What the heck is up with Nickelodeon cancelling all the good shows? Did they just look at the ratings and say "Oh, everyone else likes this show, but 6 year olds don't and that's who we want to target in our quest for world domination. Therefore, we'll keep playing the same old crap we've been playing since 1999 (that includes you SpongeBob -- you're dried up. Jump back in the lake), but all the good stuff that everyone loves will be flushed down the toilet. Now, who wants a mudpie?" That last part is to show that these guys have no frickin' clue how to run a business as they are pretty much idiots.
I believe I once said something along the lines of the following: If El Tigre, whom I believe to be Viacom's last hope, were to follow the footsteps of MLaaTR, Angry Beavers, and Invader ZIM, I'd stop watching Nickelodeon altogether. Well, it's starting to get to that point.
Nickelodeon, you fail at life.
Now for Tweedle-Dumber: DeviantART.
You ever notice that things seemed to go downhill since Jark left? Hmm? Hint hint...
The name of the site is DEVIANTART!!! And yet anything that shows cartoon characters who are CLEARLY over 18 in the picture (despite being younger in the shows) -- it doesn't even have to be "mature" at all, all that matters if she has boobs -- gets taken off. Ironically, any REAL picture of some girl getting raped, tortured, tied down, bonded up, etc. IT'S OKAY!! THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT! IT'S JUST THE PERSON "EXPRESSING" THEMSELVES!!!
What kind of moron do you take us for, DeviantART?
And if someone simly reports another person for stealing art when they didn't (ie: Kris Wilson) because they didn't think it was really that person... wow. A little research might help prevent the controversal could-have-been-solved-in-many-other-ways event that occured afterwards.
The only reason why I even go back there is to see how my cyber pals are doing.
DeviantART, you fail at life too.
*punches Nickelodeon and DeviantART in the face*
Someone had to do it.

Would Any of You Like Some Clam Chowder? ...Yes, Corny Joke...
Unlike most people, the shows I watch can sometimes be influenced by a person who is on it.
Let me explain.
The reason I started watching Danny Phantom was because Butch Hartman made it, and I liked FOP.
The reason I started watching The Buzz on Maggie (though I don't see it much often anymore) is because David Kaufman was in it, and he played Danny on DP.
So, I figured that a show created by a guy who worked on SpongeBob and Billy and Mandy would be another one to add to my list of shows to watch.
And I was right.
C.H. Greenblatt's Chowder (for some odd reason, that doesn't sound right...) just aired last night, and I liked it. ^^ Being used to randomness in just about every form imaginable, you can only imagine how interested I was when I watched it. It could very well be the next Billy and Mandy for me (and what I mean by that is: watch reruns all the time and it won't seem to get old to me).
It was the kind of randomness that only very few people could cause. This would explain why Dana Snyder is on the cast (it surprised me, too).
I see another pairing that may or may not become part of my already extensive list. If you have to guess, you obviously didn't see the show.
That's a catchy song, though. "I'm not your boyfriend...I'm not your boyfriend...I'm not your boyfriend..."
...
Still, the thought of Dana Snyder being on the cast of a show like this gives me the creeps...

The Difference Between Allusions and "Thieving"
Today was one of the best days of my life.
Why?
A.) I found out that a lot of my classmates think I'm an awesome artist.
B.) One of my friends sang a song he wrote over summer.
C.) Nothing negative happened.
D.) I got to help with the Seniors' Homecoming float.
E.) I found this blog:
http://familyguysteals.blogspot.com/
This truly is the best day of my life.
Seriously, what the heck is wrong with people these days? "That is too cliche! That joke was used three years ago by some comedian, not that anyone remembers him or her saying it. That happened in such-and-such movie."
But the best one, which happens to be on this site:
Death on Family Guy looks like Death on South Park.
...
If only you could see how hard I'm laughing right now.
I mean, COME ON!!! A skeleton in a robe with a scythe......................portraying DEATH?!
Why don't you just complain to this guy? http://hurtermonkey.blogspot.com/
I swear he made a career off of "ripping off that character from South Park".
Listen and listen carefully, 'cause if you believe Family Guy really is stealing jokes instead of making allusions to them, AND they're the only ones that do this, you probably won't pick this up right away with your tiny little brain: it's called an allusion!
(Imitating the guy with the Family Guy Steals blog) Duh...Ain't an allusion what a magician does?
No! An allusion is where you make reference to something. It's common on EVERY FRICKIN' SHOW ON EARTH! Billy and Mandy does it, Danny Phantom does it, Kim Possible does it ('cause clearly a creature living in a swampy camp was highly original), SOUTH PARK does it, and so does Family Guy.
Seriously, though...you need a brain transplant if you really thought the South Park version of Death was the original. Or a life.
Now, you think I'm being an idiot? An imbecile? Am I really taking this too far? Well, prove me wrong.
Yeah. You heard me.
I CHALLANGE YOU to prove me wrong if you disagree with me! Make your own show, don't have any cliches or "stolen ideas", and let's see how long your show lasts.
It probably won't even air. After all, you probably wouldn't be able to come up with one in the first place.

Phantom Planet and Son of the Mask
To me, series finales mark a milestone in the history of a show. It doesn't necessarily mean the end (just look at KP), but it's the planned end.
What a series finale is supposed to do is to make you feel content with the possibility that the show will never continue again. It tends to lead to many fanfiction opportunities and opinions about what happens next.
Depending on the content and impact of the finale, you will feel content either much sooner, later, or maybe even not at all. Only once in a great while does a series finale actually make someone feel content right away.
Phantom Planet is one of those series finales.
I don't know if this is the true end of one of my favorite cartoon series of all time, but I do know this: if it's really done, I won't be disappointed. In fact, after Phantom Planet, I don't know how Butch would be able to top it!
Let's spoil some stuff, shall we?
Tucker Foley becoming the newest and youngest mayor of Amity Park reminded me of Jordan from OBAN Star Racers becoming Avatar. You never saw it coming, it changes your perspective on the character, and what a crap-load of responsibility for people that young!
Vlad Plasmius is possibly, probably, and presumed dead. Of course, the world (in the DP universe, at least) probably doesn't care, and must be very glad for it. I, for one, think it kind of sucks, since Vlad was one of my favorite cartoon villains. Why wouldn't he be?
1. He's from Wisconsin
2. He has a goatee
3. He's played by Martin Mull
What doesn't rock about Vlad Plasmius?
Nonetheless, the guy was rammed into by an anti-ghost asteroid that was capable of destroying the planet, so he's probably dead, and my Danny Phantom fanfictions have now officially become A/U.
Danny and Sam are now together (FINALLY!!!). It's about frickin' time.
Jack and Maddie have now seen Danny and Vlad's true colors, which we all knew was going to happen ever since Vlad said that if Danny exposes Vlad, Vlad will expose Danny.
The one thing that I really didn't like about Phantom Planet: the scientists.
No offense to the guys that played them, but can you say "completely horrible acting"?
Seriously, the world is going to be destroyed, and their voices barely matched their expressions. They sounded more monotonous and nonchalant than Mandy.
Nonetheless, this was probably the most awesome series finale ever. Definitely the most awesome I've ever seen, and it clearly was everything the Teen Titans series finale was not: good.
Now, for the Son of the Mask.
I was able to let an hour of Grey DeLisle sink into my brain. Why not Richard as well?
Yes! He's in it! He's the dog. Seriously, you couldn't tell?
Seriously, though... even though I only saw the last hour or so (I'm planning on actually watching the whole thing when it's on today), from what I saw of it... Richard was the best actor on there.
...With the possible exception of Bob Hoskins, but hey... it's Bob Hoskins.

Curse You, G4!
I was very disappointed with G4. As much as I love the channel (I am a nerd, after all), they did not do what they said they were going to do.
They always say "We talk about all the stuff you care about" and recently they said "We'll give you exclusive coverage of everything at Comic-Con".
So I watched.
And waited.
And I asked myself:
"Where in the fuzzy cupcakes of crud is the Billy and Mandy fricken panel?"
Exclusive coverage of everything at Comic-Con my a-double-s.
However, I do have to say that, though I was disappointed, I was still entertained. And I guess the fact that they had Adam de la Pena and an artist from Futurama on there was pretty cool. But I'm still very disappointed.
Shame on you, G4. Shame, shame, shame.
