Bad news for "Thornberry", "RP", and "Hey Arnold" fans.

I was shocked to wake up this morning to find out that at 5:00 am (central time), the Klasky-Csupo created show The Wild Thornberrys (1998) and Rocket Power (1999) have been taken off the Nickelodeon schedual. Not to mention one of my other cancelled favorite shows Hey Arnold (1996). I'm not much of a Thornberrys fan, but Thornberrys has been replaced with a even worser show (I'm not even gonna say it right now, it's sooo horrible). Arnold, at 5:30 am, has been replaced by Teenage Robot. OK, I absolutly love Teenage Robot, but not that early in the morning. I'm not sure what Rocket Power was replaced with, but my biggest concern is with Hey Arnold.

I am so disapointed with Nickelodeon that they threw out a gem of my middle school girl years. The ep. that was supposed to be on was from probably somewhere in the 1st season. The begining of this series (1996-1997), just by watching them this time of my life, takes me back to the late '90s where nearly everything was just a field of dasies for me. In later episodes, it was the first time I hear the word "crap" in a Nickelodeon series. For those who are reading this and have "Nicktoons", they'll probably still play "HA" on there like what they do to the other old and outta production Nicktoons (another one, "KABLAM! Very good series. Another flashback show. Do they still play it on "Nicktoons"?) Sadly, I don't have "Nicktoons" so I have to live with my video tapes---yeah, especially since they have fair quality and I bought them in 1997 and 1998. I hope they keep well for a while during the next few years. I hardly play them. Like I said, It's a too darn shame that Nick kicked out one of my favorite Nicktoon gems out the window. RIP.

For thoes fans of the other shows, even thought I don't like them (although, I liked them at one point), I have sympathy for you folks. You all had your moments with the shows at lease once or twice or more, It's time to let go and go on for the rest of your lives. Find something new to watch. You'll might forget all about it. Who knows, Maybe the eps.'ll go out on DVD someday. I feel your pains, fans. But, hey, life goes on!

Ellerbee on TV

Guess what. During "U-pick Live," my Aunt Gertrude called my Uncle Joe because Candise was on (she's one of the hosts' of the show). Then, when he made it to the TV, none other than LINDA ELLERBEE, I mean THE LINDA ELLERBEE on TV. She was talking about that "kids pick the president" thing I keep hearing about. Then he's all like "Ahhhhhhhh! Run away!" I felt like I had to say something about that because it was all funny and stuff. Kind of sounds like A.G. was joking him with some woman he dosen't like. I forget why he hates her, but he just does. He likes Candise better than that... Like I said, kind of sounds like a joke, eh? Well that's pretty much all I have to say about that funny little thing. And thats the end of that! Or is it? Butch: Vicky! Myself: Okay! I'll say it. VMM signing off!

News about 4kids tv

Read this: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/25/business/media/25kidstv.html?_r=1 and maybe this might help as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4Kids_TV I was never a big fan of 4Kids and I never watched it but the problem is, like I've been saying for a while here, I don't watch too much TV. There's nothing worth talking about. Hmm. Since about September 2007, on Saturday mornings, I would watch the programing on Spanish network Univision. I figure it would strengthen my Spanish speaking ability to help me with my job. About everything else on TV on SatAM is nothing but garbage. There are many reasons why certain networks stop showing cartoons where they were in the past. I'm just rambling on and on about nothing is on any more 'cause I need to put something on this blog. This is just news for people who liked 4Kids TV and need to hear news about it. See you later.

Top 10 Things I Learned from Making Vic's Review

Hello again! I hope all is well. I have been coming up with some great ideas for reviews in the past years and I feel I have the energy and talent to write them. However, they will NOT be on this blog. As I may have mentioned in an earlier post, I will be continuing this blog on a different platform. I feel the content on this old blog will be no fit for the topics and writing style of my current days. It's time to move on. More information will be coming shortly. Before my farewells, here are 10 things I have learned from writing this blog on and off for the past nearly 14 years. NOTE: click the linked content at your own risk. 10. Proofread and learn to spell! I've been reading many of my earlier post and have been thinking "Aw, man, what was I thinking? That 'your' is supposed to be 'you're'" and other errors such as misspelling character names. This may have been a time before spell check was standard in browsers. Now granted, when doin...
