    How did this get canceled? I mean, how Nick? Why?!

    This show was amazing for me, and as well as other people.

    *The charaters are amazing, and all have unique personalities and names. We have twisted dark charaters, crazy/funny charaters, and charaters who are just simply amazing and make up the whole core of the show... in this case, GIR :).
    *The plots of the epsiodes were orginal and amazing, and all had a unique ending.
    *It's really dumb somebody would think that this show is dark, twisted, and evil. How could somebody think that?
    *One day, we'll all look back at this show and think, thanks Jhonen, for shaping the future of out television cartoons. We all love you forever :D.moreless

  • Why, Nickelodeon? Why did you cancel your most awesome and epic show? I mean it had everything you could ask for! Humor, action, good stories, and a dark twist. I'm sorry I didn't watch this when it was on.moreless

    People kept telling me this show was awesome, and at first I did not believe them. But after watching the first few episodes, I now see the appeal! This is truly Nickelodeon's best show. Why this lasted so short, I will never understand. Here are the reasons I find it so awesome.
    The characters/basic concept: Only on rare occasions have I seen a show concept as Inspired as this one. The main character Zim, a short alien (based on a royalty system based on who is the tallest) is sent by his leaders, the Almighty Tallest, Red and Purple (who despise Zim and want him to die), to go to The End of the known universe so he does not mess up Operation Impending Doom 2. That alone was enough to gain my attention. When I met Dib, his nemesis, and Dib's sister Gaz, I knew I was in for a world of hilarity. And Boy was I right. Dib's over the top ways to stop Zim, Gaz's dark attitude, and Zim's outlandish ways to take over the Earth and GIR (I had to mention him as the show's main humor)'s irreverence, I always busted my gut watching this show. It is one of the hundreds of shows where every episode is basically the same, but this show does it so beautifully.
    The animation: The animation is great, with flowing animation, perfect syncing, and interesting designs on the characters, this is some of the finest animation I have seen for Nickelodeon.
    Voices: Top Notch acting makes the over the top, irreverent, and outlandish writing believable.
    Cancellation: One word: WHY?
    I haven't watched a lot of this show, but from what I have watched, it is awesome! And it leaves me to say (or paraphrase, IDK), "All hail Lord Vasquez!"
    My Grade: A+moreless

    Though I won't see this show yet, Invader Zim still remains the best Nickelodeon show today. It may return in 2012 or the near future. There are unfinished episodes that maybe put back on air. The following inculde:
    1.Roboparents Gone Wild/Simon Sez Doom2.Invader Poonchy/Nubs of Doom3.10 Minutes to Doom/GIR's Big Day4.Return of Keef/Day of da Spookies5.Mopiness of Doom/Those!6.Top of the Line/The Trial7.It Feeds on Noodles/Pants! (aka, When Pants Ruled!)8.Squishy: Hugger of Worlds/Untitled Season Finale9.Invader Dib
    There are 9 unfinished episodes a total. This show may come back but we'll have to wait what Nickeldoeon says if it will come back or not.moreless

    It's hard to believe a show such as Invader ZIM got the ax too soon. It had everything that made up a good show, wonderful characters, great atmosphere, unending laughs from beginning to end, and excellent music. But the sad truth is that Nick canceled this because of the shows "dark humor" and parents accused this show for driving a kid to commit murder. Now that is just unfair, this show was very funny and it had nothing to do with the kid committing murder. The show should have lasted longer and at least have a TV movie to wrap up the series. Compare this show to the rest of crap shown on Nickelodeon (with the exception of Avatar) and you will see they have nothing on ZIM. Jhonen, I know you are probably told this a million times, but please bring this show back on the air, we want to see more adventures of Zim, GIR, and everyone else not this crap that is being shown on Nickelodeon. This show should be on Adult Swim and Jhonen can continue his genius. If you haven't seen this show, what are you waiting for? Look up episodes on Youtube or buy the DVDs. I know I am just one of millions of people saying but, BRING THIS BACK!moreless
