    The Avatar season 2 premiere brought in a record crowd. According to Wednesday's USA Today, as well as the USA Today website, the original Friday 8 pm airing drew over 3.7 million viewers and was the 6th-most-watched primetime program on all of Cable television last week, and 13th-most-watched program (overall, not just counting primetime) on Cable television for the entire week!

    Saying as 7 of the 12 shows ahead of Avatar were The Fairly Oddparents and Spongebob reruns on Sat. & Sun. morning, I can say its a pretty safe bet Avatar has once again solidified it as Nick's 3rd-highest-rated show, and with the cancellation of the FOP already been announced, it will soon be the 2nd best! All we have to do is take down Spongebob!!

    That is great news to hear. Although I don't see Spongebob falling anytime soon but second is a good place to be.

    I read somewhere Spongebob will end in 2008 but I forgot where. The Fairly Oddparents is ending soon as we all know. But it's nice to hear my second favorite show (yes, Avatar) and Nick's future #2 show being more and more successful. I'm just glad it's more successful than *cough*Catscratch*cough*!

    Just in case there are Nick execs strolling this forum, here's an idea to make Avatar draw more viewers: Show it on prime time without the horrible slimetime stupidity.

    WOO-HOO! Seriously, I told some of my students (they're 10 yrs old) that Avatar was my favorite show on TV. Of course, that might actually make some of them STOP watching Nick, ha!

    We WILL make it #1!!

    By the way (a little bragging) the Zuko video I posted on Putfile at the beginning of the year just went over 13,000 viewings! About 2,000 of those hits have come since Friday, I think. Seriously.

    Lil JJ is a disgrace to the Nickelodeon network and so is Slimetime. Can't we go back to the good ol' days where Avatar aired on a regular Friday night with no stupid gimmick to lessen the significance of the event?

    Yes, please. Remember episodes 14-17 (?) when Slimetime jinxed up the airtimes and we got Catscratch instead? Bad days, people. Bad days.

    Yep. I remember they started those eps like 10 minutes ahead of time, so most people missed the first few minutes of ep 14. Some still can'r get used to it.

    I just hope they keep it structured like it is now, if they must have Slimetime at all. And that is start Avatar at exactly 8pm ET.

    Yes! Slimetime MUST go down!!! I mean, seriously, who wants to be covered in some green crap, let alone, watch it! It's utter stupidity!! No...I take that back. It's not stupid, it's the DEFINITION of stupid!!!

    Oh yes, 14-17. The dark, dark days.

    As we can tell the Slimetime folks aren't too creative. Hairbending is so dumb it doesn't even deserve to be associated with Nickelodeon, and that's saying something!
