I see that they are releasing the complete 1997 season of The Red Green Show. Hopefully they'll release more complete seasons.

They're WHAT! *goes and looks it up*

Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!

XD Super Happy fun mode time!! That's season 7. It has some really hilarious episodes on it (The Swiss episode, the Marti Gras episode). I wonder if there'll be any special features.

I know. Isn't great? It would be nice to have special features but I'd be prefectly happy with just the episodes and more complete seasons. This show is hilarious. A Red Green quote is now gracing my sig.

Duck Tales (I have the theme song in German, along with the full version.)
Rescue Rangers (I have the full version of its theme song too.)
Tale Spin
Darkwing Duck
Invader Zim (Nick sucks for canceling this show.)
The Tick
Dinosaurs
The original Ghostbusters

I see that they are releasing the complete 1997 season of The Red Green Show. Hopefully they'll release more complete seasons. I'd like to see The Angry Beavers out on DVD. Watching that show was like watching my brothers. I want Daggit's calender: 365 Ways and Days to Completely Annoy Your Brother. The Yak in the Sak episode was a classic. ADV released the third and fourth season of Reboot but not the first and second season and the third season is out of print. But most of I would LOVE to see Eek the Cat out on DVD.

Invader Zim is already out on DVD. I have the first two volumes.

It wasn't Nick's fault that Zim was cancelled. Jhonen Vasquez didn't want to do it anymore. Nickelodeon had nothing to do with it.

Oh GOD. I want the angry Beavers to come out on DVD so bad. That is my favorite of all nicktoons.

I'm SO glad I'm not the only one who thinks this!! xD You and I should start an alliance for that, or something. True, it's been YEARS since I've actually seen an episode of TAB, but still. I remember laughing so hard while watching it.

I know. As I said in my post that list includes shows that I'm happy that are out on DVD. Duck Tales, Rescue Rangers. Dinosaurs and Ghostbusters have DVD releases too.

My bad. I misinterprated what you wrote.

Is The TIck on DVD? If not, then I would love to see it. It was one of my favorites. Another would have to be the Sam and Max cartoon. Oh man, I miss that show. I remeber the episode whre they were talking about the pancreas and stuff in the body. I wish I could find the games, they look as funny as the cartoons.

On the official Voltron site, www.voltron.com, there's a mysterious countdown and some indications that there may in fact be a North American DVD released shortly.

Nick had everything to do with it. Jhonen Vasquez left over "creative differences." In other words, Nick wouldn't allow him to do what he wanted to do. If granted creative freedom he might pick up Zim again. It was Steve Ressel, a key crew member, who said that he wouldn't do Zim anymore. From Zim's wiki article:

Creative differences with Nickelodeon drove Jhonen Vasquez from the show. Even if the show is ever picked up again, a key staff member, Steve Ressel, has stated that he no longer wishes to work on it. In an IGN interview, Vasquez has claimed that were he to get creative freedom on Zim, he may possibly continue it. Since the cancellation, Mr. Vasquez and the other crew have moved on to other projects.

An attempt to recreate Zim is being done by fans at the Invader ZIM Fan Animated Series. Fans have also raised an online petition for the relaunch of Invader Zim.

Vasquez has also mentioned that after Zim was finished he was approached by several animation production companies (some big names, he claimed) wishing for him to do a Zim like program. He's refused them all, not wanting to live life as a children's show producer, and wanted to go on to something else. What, exactly, is unclear at this point in time.

I can't help but wonder why Nick would pick up Invader Zim as it's darker then thier other shows, especially coming from the creator of Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.

I'm suprised no one mentioned this yet, but before the weekend, it was announced that Media Blasters picked up Voltron and will be releasing it in September.

Since you guys seem to be big Beavers fans... I'd just like to point out that I was the proud webmistress of THE FIRST ANGRY BEAVERS WEBSITE ON THE INTERWEB when I was about 12. =D

Ever heard of "The Red Frog's Unofficial Angry Beavers Page"? Yea.... well... that was my first screen name XD

My personal fave Nicktoon will always be Real Monsters though. I was obsessed with it like nothing else for YEARS. But early TAB is definitely a close second. I stopped watching it after they switched writers >_>

If either of those come to DVD I will be one happy froggie.

AAAAHHHH, -squeak- REAL monsters!

His name was Ickis, right? -tilts head- It's been so many years...

First website?! OOH. o.o Sylph rocks!

::shrugs:: I've always read that Jhonen Vasquez simply didn't want to do it any more.

He knew Nick was a children's TV station. He should have known that he can only be so dark. Anything more than what was present and they wouldn't allow it to be aired. He didn't want to do it any more because he couldn't do what he wanted. When people are asked to do something they are given a set of conditions, especially for a kid's based network. He signed the contract and took the money. Then, after Zim became popular, he wanted more "creative freedom". After all is said and done he quit.
Given the level of darkness on that show, and it was the darkest show on Nick, he had pleanty of creative control. I'm actually surprised they let "Dark Harvest", as well as a few other episodes, on the air.

For all we know he used "creative differences" as a way to get out of doing the show all together. He stated himself that, "... not wanting to live life as a children's show producer". The only people who know for sure are the people involved.

Dinosaucers!? I havn't thought about that cartoon in AGES! o_____o Oh my god. I used to loved that show on USA's Cartoon Express. I'd love for that to come out on DVD just see it again.

One I wouldn't mind seeing: The Animated Adventures of Grimm's Fairytales, that came on Classic Nick. ;__; I loved that cartoon. That and David the Gnome. xD

Yep, Ickis. =D You can't help but love him (and Charlie Adler, so talented), but Oblina will always be my favorite. She was totally my hero growing up, lol. I could even do her accent perfectly, not any more :/ Christine Cavanaugh was my absolute favorite VA too, I must have watched Babe about 30,000 times when I was younger. I nearly cried when she retired ;_;

I still catch reruns of it sometimes on the Nicktoons channel but sadly its only on at like 5 in the morning

Musashi · Post by **Musashi** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 10:35 pm

Oblina! What an awesome candy cane/snake monster thing.
What was that line? I'm so mad I could /spit./
That always cracked me up. xD

Ickiiis~! Too... cute. xD

Babe! Babe's adorable too. <3

"The Adventures of Superman" Season One
"The Adventures of Superman" Season Two Saw them on "Nick at Nite".

Ahhhhhhhh, the memories. (I'm old, but I'm not THAT old.)

The ones I wish Nick at Nite would bring back are "Star Trek" and "The Green Hornet".

OMG. I loved She-ra, but I didn't think it was as popular as He-man so I thought it would never be released to dvd. Sweet deal.
