Even looking past the fact that Cartoon Network shouldn't have had CN Real in the first place, the shows themselves were HORRENDOUS. Dude, What Would Happen seemed like it wanted to be Mythbusters but failed, and instead featured a ton of teenagers wondering "What would happen if we played dodgeball in the dark?" or "What would happen if we popped the biggest zit?" and all of that trash. Destroy Build Destroy, aside from being live action, had a concept that would get old really fast. Phineas and Ferb in my opinion can get away with this with the cartoonish things of it all. But that's the thing, these aren't CARTOONS so it instead ends up like we're watching a documentary it gets so boring. Same thing with Hole in the Wall, and I saw Bobb'e Says once, and was waiting for it to be over. Later on they got stuff like Level Up, and the live action shows had bad acting as well. Rest in purgatory, CN Real.

Exactly, a lot of these channels think they can subject us to bad programming and expect us to do it all of the time, and we're supposed to like it! This is why I hate Sanjay and Craig and Breadwinners, they pander to horrific levels and ends up either causing migraines (Breadwinners) or make me want to bang my head against a wall (Sanjay and Craig). Sometimes even both. Also, these shows seem like they want to use the same style of surreal humor that CN has, which started with Adventure Time, a show that Nick conviently turned down. Bet they're kicking themselves for that one. Then again, they treat Spongebob like he's a miracle from the heavens to give them life forever, so maybe not. All I can say is that it's just really sad to see them get this way, since Nick was probably my favorite cartoon channel growing up. I don't hate the network now, but I want to give it the criticism it needs to be as good as it once was.

Right, I worried the Cartoon Network will go the Nickelodeon route and rely too heavily on one show (or humor). I can't see it falling as hard as Nickelodeon did as their shows are almost completely hated, but CN's shows tend to have large fanbases. It kinda depends if it will get old after a while.

Thanks, if only I did run Nick, then it could be really good like it used to be. It's pretty telling when a viewer of Nickelodeon has better quality and money ideas than the people actually there. And about Nickelodeon movies, it's also really telling that they don't have a cartoon good enough yet to get it's own movie since Spongebob (The Last Airbender doesn't count). Honestly I can't blame them. Can you imagine "The Sanjay and Craig Movie" or "Breadwinners: The Movie"? Box office bombs.

The Modifyers was an awesome cartoon pilot Nick rejected. Mr. Enter featured it in his final video for Nickelodeon Month, his Admirable Animation #22: 3 Stories of What Could Have Been video. The Modifyers is the second story featured in the video, after Pigeon Man.

Oh, I see. Yeah, Total Drama loves torturing their characters and leaving cliffhangers for some reason. Hopefully the series finale ends up with one big comeuppance for Chris, it is very well deserved. His Top 10 list would deserve twice the amount of anger than Patrick's did.

When did Tom and Jenn say that they regret Sundae Muddy Sundae and pretty much the season? Also, did Ed get fired because of the episode?

Speaking of Admirables, do you think Mr. Enter will review more Avatar episodes? There's a ton crying out to be an Admirable, like The Storm, The Puppetmaster, Zuko Alone, Sozin's Comet, The Deserter, etc.
