Now, Cartoon Network, make things like this amazing show instead of ripping off Japanese game shows, and your Nielsons will go through and then devour the roof.

Won't happen. CN is led by morons currently who are not understanding the failure of live-action and continue to pull it out. Anyone who thinks 6-11 year old boys will want to watch an hour-long drama series about school is obviously using illegal drugs. I suggest the Atlanta Police Department do a little searching.
They're doomed to 3rd Place, and come next Sunday, they might end up getting #4.
Anyway, didn't manage to catch the latest episode, but I heard it got a longer intro.

Okay look, hate to break it to you, but Cartoon Network isn't looked at as just a "Cartoon" channel anymore. A&E airs sh*t outside of Arts and Entertainment. Sci-Fi changed it's name to SyFy trying to change the company image. The name is a throwback to the old cable days where channels where labeled by what they showed. It's a different beast today.
Cartoon Network has to compete with juggernauts like Disney and Viacom and obviously are only being given a low amount of money to do so. What do Disney and Viacom offer tweens? LIVE ACTION!
I do agree CN should stop trying to compete in the Live Action market cause they can't do it (Hide the negatives, exploit the positives) and stick to animation. They have made a few interesting shows (Destroy, Build, Destory. Dude, What Would Happen?).
BTW Rho, I take it you weren't alive during the early days of Nick? Mystery Files of Shelby Woo? Alex Mack? Frankly I'm pro any series aimed at kids that shows bad guys carrying guns. Plus atleast they're trying to be orignal instead of ripping off Fame like other Networks (LOOKING AT YOU, FOX! F*CK GLEE!)

I was sort of feeling that, but come on, we're only three episodes in. I'd consider a series pretty dull if it only took three episodes to get into what it was all about. I think, if this series does withstand everyone's expectations, the wait will be worth it. And yeah, it might be abusing the whole friendship-thing, but at least it did it in a clever and charming way, it was recycled like most series. : o
Durr, why the heck I'm I defending this series? The heck, that was the biggest heap of pointlessness ever.
I could've sworn that was going somewhere, but whatever.
In terms of the latest episode, I don't have any real opinion, it just was—it wasn't good, it wasn't bad, it just was.

Spreading about the unenthusiasm is making me feel queasy. Please stop.
You certainly do have the right to express your own opinions, but I cannot resist expressing my opinions as well, in that I thought it still was great and your little rainclouds of indifference are making puddles on my floor. Gah, I sound so arrogant saying that, and I only mean to sound honest about my opinions of the show. I am going to retreat into a corner and await the berating by the admins I will receive for being an insufferable mini-mod.
