The rumors I'd heard about this episode suggested that it wasn't censored, is there a different version or something?

Internet rumors can... exaggerate.

For anyone who has not seen Mystery Inc, you have no excuse now. Go forth and watch.

I finally got to see the last 13ish episodes and oh my god what.

Best adaptation of EarthBound ever.

I'm about 10 episodes into Mystery Inc. Ummm... This is okay I guess? Why's this been touted so much? If I wasn't a fan of Scooby Doo growing up I'd have quit like 3 episodes in.

You're less than 1/5th of the way through. Pay attention to the myth clues and brace yourself.

Not to mention that Cartoon Network doesn't WANT to air DC shows - the CN leadership seems to hate and resent DC on the whole, if the fate DC Nation suffered is any indication.

Fine, it's one of the best shows on CN that's aired in the past 5 years.

Happy?! :mad:

If it makes you feel better, it ended - it wasn't just "cancelled", it ran its story out as planned.

That's still better than the word "dweeb" and all the sexual tension between Gwen and her cousin.Thankfully this tension was subverted by marrying Gwen off to bad boy Kevin when the series got its first revamp.

Oh my god, any sexual tension between Ben and Gwen is entirely the product the imaginations of weird hosed-up fans on TVTropes and other gross bits of the internet and gently caress you for even bringing it up.

The only ones still alive that I can remember are Katara and Toph (maybe a barely mentioned Zuko, but him and Aang were bffs) and they are basically the same characters just way older and not really important.

The shows problem isn't unlikable characters at all. It's tragically poor writing and story planning. Nothing makes sense and the plot veers off in the dumbest possible ways that aren't set up at all at the end of each season arc.

Aang turned out to have been a pretty crummy dad. Not abusive or anything but he played hella favorites with his kids.

Toph wasn't the best mom for her kids either.

Zuko actually shows up later and is great.

It's amazing that Greg Weisman's been doing TV action cartoons for over 20 years now, yet he still has NO loving IDEA how television production works. His reach far, FAR exceeds his grasp CONSTANTLY, in terms of longevity and spinoffs and poo poo, and it's infuriating for everyone who has to deal with the aborted plot threads and broken promises.

Well she did just find out she wasn't even considered to (re)play one of her career-defining/most popular roles over social media. I'd say she's got just cause.



In the end though it's not that big of a deal, it's not like she's hurting for work.

She's trying to back a petition to get the original cast back, which is kinda scummy considering the new casting's already been determined.

Nothing ever actually happens in Bee and PuppyCat. It's all malingering and none of the characters involved have any interest in anything other than lounging around and watching television.
