April Fools Day/ Nickelodeon's birthday

April Fools Day, everyone! Did you also know that Nick was launched on the same day twenty-six years ago? Yep, it was that that spring in 1979. Last year (June 2004), they actually celebrated by doing this thing in U-Pick live called "The Old-School Pick." It was great while it lasted. It lasted for only 2 weeks. I could of sworn that they were gonna do it all June. But on the 2nd week, we just got a whole week of "Danny Phantom." And it went on for the rest of the month. I like DP ,but I rather see the old shows. I especially like to watch this "old-school Nick" show called "You Can't Do that on Television." Like I said, I'm into Canadian stuff. That's probably why I liked it. There was a sign that they were going to stop showing the old shows because one time, "YCDTOTV" won and guess what we got on the 2nd half after they went to a commercial break. THEY PLAYED A 15 MINUTE EP OF (ew!) "FAIRLY ODDPARENTS! (the ep was called "Spaced Out" which came out in 2001.) Even after that FOP, they said it was the "old-school pick." FOP's not old-school! It's 2001. That time "U-Pick" was probably pre-recorded. And for "YCDTOTV," that's like 1979 or 1980 (depending when it aired). Now that's old school! I miss it so. They did something last year because Nick was turning 25. You'd see things or famous people celebrate like their 20th, 25th, or 30th aniversary or birthday. It would feel pretty awkward to celebrate the 21st, 24th, or 26th. I doubt Nick's gonna do something special this year. Although, I liked what happened last year.

So, everyone, have a happy April Fools Day. Play pranks on people and don't fall for their jokes. And be sure to wish Nickelodeon a happy birthday, also. I will put more reviews up when I see something cool. VMM, signing off!

Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, GO!

On Friday, my team and I accepted this new Cartoon Network show called "Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi." To me, it was very good. It's about these 2 girls named Ami and Yumi and they play in a rock band together. This series was created by this guy named Sam Register. I do not know who he is. If you actually have a clue to who he is, you know the score (e-mail me)! Today at school, we had our Thanksgiving party. During it, this boy started this conversation about this very show above. They were talking about the one called "Dis- 'I'm your biggest fan!' Harmony" (for fans, you know what I'm talking about). And this other one called "Ole!" It's about bull fighting. And thats all I can think about. I think there were more, but I cannot remember. I know it's been a while since i've posted a review (hence the site's name "Vic's Review"), but I will try to eventually. And for you new fans out there, l...

"Foster's" on Kids' WB?

I believe so. According to the Toonzone forums, It will start July 9. I'm not sure wether i'm gonna watch it or not. I guess the old saying is true, "be careful what you wish for, it might come true." I was wondering when the day would come. It's not even gonna last a year. Probably because K.W.B. signed the contract to where it last less than a year. Same with PowerPuff Girls (sister), Kids Next Door, and even Samuri Jack didn't last long either. I hope it doesn't cause the show to jump the shark. Like I said, i've been watching the show since the beginning. It started perfect, it better end perfect, or else. Kids' WB is more oriented for anime. Really and seriously, "Foster's" is not anime (no action, not from Japan). Cartoon Network and WB are both owned by Time Warner. Time Warner must be on crack. Ah, well, let's just hope that the show gets good raitings there and enjoy it while it last. Remember: Never stop being fans of ...

Goodbye to Bloo - Reviewed

Originally Written 25 December 2016 Goodbye to Bloo Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends Cartoon Network 3 May 2009 As I said in an earlier post , I didn't get to see this ep when it premiered. I found out about it the next day. Not even 2 years later I finally got to see the episode. Yeah, the week of 3 May 2009 wasn't the best week for me (for personal reasons). To this day I have seen "Goodbye to Bloo" several times and here's what I think of it. They tried to make it where Mac would no longer be coming to Foster's when it was something else entirely. This was how they ended the series. Even if I had absolutely no idea this was the actual last episode, I can tell it's the final episode just by seeing how the story proceeds and ends. Toward the very end, upon closing the episode, the ending made my mind flash backwards through the entire series, remembering the great and not-so-great moments that made "Foster's" "Foster...
