The show'll turn 15 in a couple of hours, so let's have a thread about it
I'll even post an episode, since apparently most of them are legally available on YouTube:

>FoP started airing 15 years ago
Kill me
>>81232698
They haven't mentioned anything for the occasion as far as I know, so probably not.
As the other characters... nobody knows.
>>81233007
There's three that we know about, two of which make up a half-hour episode.
Not as bad as last season, where he showed up in nearly every single one.
This show should've died years ago
>>81233007
Crocker was funny in the last episode that aired. If you stopped watching in Season 5 then dont talk about Seasons that come after it
>>81232864
Butch's counting down Fairly Odd Facts on his Tumblr
The last time there was a countdown for the 7th anniversary, the number 1 fact was Poof coming to the show and a new movie.
I'm honestly expecting a special. Not a new character though, obviously.
>>81235075
Dusty being Poof's original name and him being the hardest character to design in the show are my personal favourite facts.
They also made me realise Vicky and Tootie have no last names
>>81235499
The simple characters are often the hardest. Plus they probably had a hard time directly addressing how fairy babies look or something.
>FoP and Zim both aired at the same time
>Invader Zim gets cancelled
>This is still going despite it's shit quality
There is no justice in this world. Invader Zim would have ended years ago since it had an ending planned out and everything. Following both shows since it aired it really pains me to see how shit FoP has gotten.
>>81235623
>implying if IZ lasted long enough to still be on the air when it suddenly started making millions of dollars in merchandise sales it would have ever ended
Would an actual ending really have been that satisfying? Dib's Wonderful Life of Doom made for a good representation of that, and you know the show wouldn't have lasted much longer before inevitably going to shit. The crew was already getting burned out and the problems were becoming apparent.
>>81235858
Didn't they have a season or two planned out before Invader Dib?
Either way compare to FoP, Zim did run Nickelodeon's budget with being an expensive show to animate. Plus it wasn't popularized a year after it was cancelled.
>>81235948
That was the point I was making with the greentext, if the show was still around when it actually became profitable they wouldn't have ever let it go and we'd be on season twelve or some such.
All those ship battles were expensive as fuck to make though, production crew issues and Jhonen being edgy aside.
>>81235623
You again?
It was Spongebob that killed your favorite show.
Why blame us?
>>81236091
Not him, but I'd still celebrate Zim's anniversary then FOP.
>>81235611
>Plus they probably had a hard time directly addressing how fairy babies look or something
didn't we see Cosmo as a baby in an earlier episode though?
>>81236164
Because this show lived long enough to become the villain itself.
>>81236316
well I meant specifically one episode where we see a clip of Cosmo when he was actually a baby
>>81232640
Does it really count as 15 years when it was cancelled and ended at multiple times?
>>81236481
According to Butch Hartman, yes.
>>81236266
>>81235623
FoP's nostalgiafag fanbase isnt the show's fault
>>81236231
>>81236438
Yeah, but they probably figured it was time to revise the design since they wanted to expand on fairy baby lore
>>81236481
It was cancelled once, for probably just a year
If you don't think that seasons 2 and 3 weren't genuinely well written episodes, then you should just an hero
>>81236266
>quoting capeshit
>>81236766
Nobody in the thread thinks that?
The best seasons for me are 2, 3 and 6.
>>81236863
Terribly sorry you don't notice the nosedive in this shows quality. I'm pretty sure everyone is in agreement that Channel Chasers is the series true end.
>>81236023
Except Gravity Falls was a huge success, ended on it's own terms and Hirsch is getting a show on fox you idiot.
Normalfag who stopped watching just before the baby was added? How did they fuck it up since then?
And what's this about the entire supporting cast being jettisoned?
>>81240088
I don't even understand what you're trying to suggest here. Where did this come from.
>>81240177
The quality of potential Alex's new show isn't even a part of this discussion. The poster I originally responded to insinuated that Alex couldn't handle running a show and quit because of it. The fact that he accepted another show at all makes that poster an idiot.
>Nick's two longest-surviving shows have both been shit for longer than they've been good
>>81240398
>there are whisperings of backstage drama
Read: unsubstantiated rumor bullshit
>>81240471
>most people who come to these threads
So people desperate enough to watch the show past its prime? The last good season was nearly 10 years ago
>>81240566
Not the guy you responded to, but I don't see how some dude pulling a knife on Hirsch is indicative of HIRSCH being unable to handle showrunning. And to reiterate, he took another show he did not quit shows like Jhonen.
How many episode did season 10 show already? I need to find them
Bumping with an episode

Well damn, that's unfortunate, it's working over here from London.
Are you from the US?
>>81238827
>"everyone is in agreement"
>weekly threads about the show still exists
fuck off Mr Enter
>>81240355
It was only shit for Seasons 5 and 9. Nostalgiafags who stopped watching for longer than it's been on dont get to comment on what they havent seen
>>81240566
>my art being used as a reaction image
>pic related
>>81246179
It was still nice to see someone like my drawing enough to save it
>>81241678
the dude was actually a disgruntled storyboard artist
>>81241678
Hirch is just the popular to hate "hack" of Disney, sort of like Butch Hartman and Rebecca Sugar for Nick and CN
>>81248618
>Butch is a manlet
That explains Timmy's height
>click verify once they are none left
No other captcha makes me rage harder
I wonder if the big reveal on the 30th will be that Poof and Foop are getting full bodies now.
>>81249889
Yeah, there's probably no real upsides to them staying this way now that they both talk. But man I cant fathom what human shaped Poof would look like, especially hair-wise.
Though I did imagine this eventually happening all the way back in Season 6 when he just came out. But I stopped thinking it would happen eventually. Until now
This is the facebook page's profile pic
I'm fairly certain Poof is still in the show.
Also Happy 15th.
Had a rocky time but each Season is still filled with memorable moments.
>>81253540
Yeah, but he's still drawn with the main cast is what I mean.
I also wish they'd upload the whole thing, but I'm pretty fine with just this as well desu. Surprisingly big picture
bump
Was working on a picture to celebrate.
Just need to color it and fix some challenging parts, going to sleep now though.
>>81255792
we'll try to keep the party going till you get back good sir
>>81255772
Neat
>>81255792
When is her episode?
I think her nae is Cheri Oteri or something
>>81248618
If he's a manlet then why is he so tall right here? >>81258476
Bum0
What's the dumbest complaint against the show you see by people?
>>81259991
That the show wasn't dead after channel chaser.
The dumbest thing I ever heard was that the Hartman thinking ppl wanted more Crocker and the Dad. Just fucking awful.
>>81259991
>People actually think it's okay to plaster themselves like this on social media
>Even fucking teenagers, who are likely to have peers that will bully them mercilessly once they find out they're devoted to a children's cartoon
>>81255792
I think I'm going to post this on cripplechan instead.
The mod is being a massive faggot in this thread as usual.
bumpin
Just wanted to stop by to tell you all that I don't like thing
