• The truth of Invader Zim's Cancellation

Invader Zim was critically accepted, winning two awards and nominations for the first episode . Since its cancellation, it has acquired renewed acclaim, with a 9.1/10 rating on TV.com and a 9.2/10 on IMDb. The DVD release has also renewed interest and re-evaluation of the show, receiving high scores and sales. Invader Zim did not escape criticism. When Invader Zim was launched along with The Fairly OddParents, Christian Parenting Today criticised both programs negatively, calling them "non-Christian", "immoral" and "insulting towards Christian values and beliefs". More negative criticism came when Invader Zim was cited in the murder trial of Scott Dyleski. The prosecution asserted that the defendant had a fascination with images of body parts. They drew attention to comments he had made after watching the Invader Zim episode "Dark Harvest", where Zim collects human organs in an attempt to appear more human. Witnesses for the defense said that the comments were made in jest. So it was pretty much christians who got it banned and it wasnt the bloody gir
Christians need to lay the hell off of stuff that isn't Christian. Every other religion does it, so why not Christian?
Christians ruin everything.

Ban atheism
Naw the creator got bored of it
I never really liked it that much, it was adequate at best.
[QUOTE=Lambeth;20489427]Naw the creator got bored of it[/QUOTE] if he was bored then why did he try to stop its cancellation
That's bullshit. Zim was canceled because; 1. Whenever I find a show awesome, they take it off the air to piss me off. TAB suffered the same fate. 2. Spongebob took over Nickelodeon, causing everyone to love the sponge due to mind control. 3. Ratings.
[QUOTE=Craptasket;20489422]Ban atheism[/QUOTE] Amen to that.
Actually no he hated it [quote=Jhonen Vasquez]The biggest difference that he cites is the change from working alone to working with thousands of people at Nickelodeon, calling it an "absolute misery"[/quote]
Things like this give religion a bad name.
There is a Film & Television subforum you know.

IT WAS NOT SOLELY CHRISTIANS. THERE WERE A NUMBER OF CONTRIBUTING FACTORS THAT CAUSED IT'S CANCELLATION. (boo)
[QUOTE=wilhelmutt;20489450]Things like this give religion a bad name.[/QUOTE] Yeah, it's not the hate or violence it creates, or the stupid claims it makes, it's this.

[QUOTE=wilhelmutt;20489450]Things like this give religion a bad name.[/QUOTE] Nope, I think it's a bit more then canceling TV shows that give religion a bad name.
