Cancellation still makes me sad...


I loved this show so much. It's better than Degrassi. It's funny, because most people only like Degrassi as a guilty pleasure because it's so over the top and issue-of-the-week. Instant Star, however, is a genuinely well-written, entertaining, passionate and funny show. Probably one of my favorite shows of all time. I'm so bummed that it was cancelled.

All the programming changes The N made (canceling wonderful shows like Instant Star, no longer showing old Nickelodeon classics like Pete & Pete, etc) made the channel suck. And now that it's Teen Nick, its downright awful. Every single one of its shows (Degrassi being the only exception I know of) also airs on Nickelodeon and its other channels. This channel is not geared to teens--it's geared to tweens.

But I digress. I really wish there was a way to bring this show back. It was brilliant. I've signed a couple petitions, but I'm willing to sign more if needed. If anyone knows what can be done to *possibly* help bring the show back, let me know!

I'm with you.

This was my first obsession as a teen. I loved this show so much.

Its soo true!! This show was full of ups and downs and I couldn't wait till nxt wk to find out what happened!! This was my show in High school, and it sucks degrassi is still on the air, when all they're doing is redoing old stuff w. new characters. This was a really good show and the-n canceled it!!! And I agree w. their show choices I rmbr watching ghost writer and old school all that!! Teen- nick is the worst concept ever! I miss Instant Star
