Only thing I actually enjoy on Nickelodeon anymore.


Quite pathetic, but this is seriously the only show I actually do like on Nick anymore. I admit, its nothing compared to the 90's cartoons on Nickelodeon. But its actually pretty fun.
But I surprisingly like this show. I actually think that its pretty damn funny. Its beyond bizarre, but I think I like how weird it is. Sometimes, the weirdest cartoon can be great. I think the characters are all funny, and I like that this is an original cartoon. Not based off some movie. I never cared for Madagascar or Barnyard, so I don't watch either of the TV shows that spawned off. I also like Fanboy and Chum Chum because its a CARTOON.
Whenever I watch Nickelodeon, I see all of these ads for all of these Nickelodeon live action shows, like iCarly and whatnot. And thats all well and good, but it seems like thats all Nick is focusing on nowadays. Same thing with Disney. I'm pretty sure Phineas and Ferb is Disney's only cartoon still running. I got kinda bored of that one, but I appreciate Disney having a cartoon still. Are kids today just not into cartoons? I'm a teenage girl, but I have never stopped loving cartoons. Which is why I love the Boomerang channel, since I can see all of my favorite cartoons. Boomerang and Funimation, the anime channel, tend to be my main picks. But I see all of these little girls that are no more than six, with all of this Hannah Montana and iCarly merchandise. Just seems like kids don't like cartoons.

So I appreciate Fanboy and Chum Chum for keeping animation alive. Doesn't anyone else want to see more cartoons on Nickelodeon? Nick's always been cartoons first, and then live-action. At least thats how I always saw it. When someone says Nickelodeon to me, I'm going to think of my favorite Nicktoons immediately, as opposed to some live action show.

Fanboy and Chum Chum is getting a lot of negativity, and I actually thought it was going to be dumb when I first saw the ad. But its actually becoming one of my favorite shows that still has new episodes.
Anyone else agree, or want more cartoons from Nick?
