I guess the definitions of "great," "original" and "outstanding" have changed over time. Good shows are not respected anymore.....

Exactly. This was my reaction when I found out:
But really, Avatar should be nominated for much more. It is such a great show in writing, animation and everything else. I guess people haven't realized that Avatar is such a??good show??this year......

Maybe Nickelodeon disregards any comments except from critics who are 5 years of age or younger... >_>
Honestly, do people not realize that Avatar is a gold mine just waiting to be exploited? I can probably guarantee that at least 1/2 of the people who watch it can say without a doubt that it is (as of yet) overall the most extraordinary and magnificent of any??animated show ever.
People don't appreciate brilliant storylines anymore. And Fairly Oddparents doesn't even HAVE a storyline. It's just a bunch of stupid and extremely childish episodes featuring bad jokes and horrible animation.
Thats Crap!
When millions of dollars are given??to a show that the creators have poured there hearts into, and FOP and the X's get more nominations.
Another reason life isn't??fair. ??

Hear hear!
Avatar is a gem that Nick just doesn't want to appreciate. Remember when they replaced the Avatar time slot with *throws up* Mr. Meaty? This is one of the few animated shows that actually has a storyline or plot to it. Sorry, but a sponge running around laughing at himself and flipping patties doesn't do it for me. Its a shame that its so under appreciated. Nick needs to realize that Avatar is the only thing saving their butts. And yes, I agree, "at least 1/2 of the people who watch it can say without a doubt that it is (as of yet) overall the most extraordinary and magnificent of any??animated show ever." It really is a shame...
Seriously Teens are watching this show! How many teens still watch FOP, the X's and even Spongebob anymore.
I have?? friends, my roughly my age, that really get into this show and several others that starting to get into it. Heck even at the gorcery store I work at I see alot of kids with there moms bring the Avatar Airheads and Fruitsnacks through the checkout line. I kid you not.
It had better be on the kids choice awards next time
