    ... and maybe they're just waiting for the right time to start showing more re-runs and marathons.

    Again, just a theory.

    Here is a simple solution to ur problem,

    un like most of u, i'm actually waiting for the eps to air on nick so i can watch them there because i have some patience. I waited long enuff for avatar to air, i think i can wait one week for an episode. It wont kill u to watch it again on tv if u un-patient americans already saw it on the internet, if ya dont wanna do that, jus put on ur tv when avatar air, and it will look like all of america in watchin it! uh duuuuuuuh! problem solved V.V

    You're still missing the point.

    I have no problem waiting for the new episodes to air, but Friday night when they air the new ep is the ONLY time Avatar is getting any airtime during the week, unlike every other halfway show that airs its episodes every day and night during the week.

    think of it this way, there will be more air time for avatar if they noticed they are more viewers. however, there aren't more viewers because they are all watching it on the internet!

    When I look into your eyes
    I can see a love restrained
    But darlin' when I hold you
    Don't you know I feel the same

    'Cause nothin' lasts forever
    And we both know hearts can change
    And it's hard to hold a candle
    In the cold November rain

    We've been through this auch a long long time
    Just tryin' to kill the pain

    But lovers always come and lovers always go
    An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
    Walking away

    If we could take the time
    to lay it on the line
    I could rest my head
    Just knowin' that you were mine
    All mine
    So if you want to love me
    then darlin' don't refrain
    Or I'll just end up walkin'
    In the cold November rain

    Do you need some time...on your own
    Do you need some time...all alone
    Everybody needs some time...
    on their own
    Don't you know you need some time...all alone

    I know it's hard to keep an open heart
    When even friends seem out to harm you
    But if you could heal a broken heart
    Wouldn't time be out to charm you

    Sometimes I need some time...on my
    own
    Sometimes I need some time...all alone
    Everybody needs some time...
    on their own
    Don't you know you need some time...all alone

    And when your fears subside
    And shadows still remain
    I know that you can love me
    When there's no one left to blame
    So never mind the darkness
    We still can find a way
    'Cause nothin' lasts forever
    Even cold November rain

    Don't ya think that you need somebody
    Don't ya think that you need someone
    Everybody needs somebody
    You're not the only one
    You're not the only one

    The only reason people are watching it on the internet is because Nickelodeon refuses to air any re-runs of the new episodes fans might have missed.

    You don't see people watching Spongebob or Drake & Josh on the internet as much, do you?

    no, they dont, and i understand what ur saying, but, im jus saying, as far as i k, Nick only cares about views, not the "viewers".

    I guess that I can`t argue with that

    I understand and agree, but it still wouldn't make since. The math shows Avatar had TONS of viewers in the past and some of Nick's best ratings and award nominations before. So where on the web does it say Avatar has been getting bad ratings THIS season?

    the reason i fell the ratings r going down is because of the 9 month break. with all the ADD kids around, they now have moved on to other shows and avatar is forgotten, or they lost interests.however us loyal fans are like a cult following. The other eason is because there is lke no advertising and than the show is only on once a week. its entirely nick's fault
    yep its all nicks fault. If i was the creators id want 2 move 2 a different channel.

    Yeah, true, but I like The Rugrats episode where they all imagine themselves older, the one that started it.

    Nah, they think that Spongebob's the best show on NICK but it's not. I admit I'm a Spongebob fan but they give it way too much credit. Avatar's probably the underrated shows on NICK.

    I think Avatar is possibly the second highest rated show o Nick, second to Spongebob because of how they keep promoting it.

    It's not like it's had amazing ratings its whole run...Season 3 is pretty much starting out like season 1 and season 2..except season 3 didn't start off with a definite viewer number.. I wouldn't be worried. If Avatar has been renewed with the same things that are happening currently, I wouldn't be too scared.

    excuse me! uhh just jorddan it the ...2nd illest show on nick. correct ya self.
    I agree, Just Jordan is a tight show. And I'll admit I didn't like Zoey 101 at first until I actually watched it. I sort of like Barnyard and Tak. It was about time Tak moved from games to television in my opinion, simply because he belongs to Nick. However, I will never in my LIFE like Unfabulous.


    The REAL question here is do you like any of those shows MORE than you like Avatar?

    Doctor Who

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer

    Angel

    Heroes

    The Office

    Reaper

    The Boondocks

    None of these are on Nick of course.

    Finally another fellow the Boondocks fan? Do you think you could read this post (#19) and not get offended? It's a short skit I made up about what would hapen if Avatar was crossed over with The Boondocks. You may or may not want to read it if you have not already seen Nightmares and Daydreams, but if you do it won't spoil too much of the show.
