Survey Says: Avatar Staying on Nick?

Would you want to keep Avatar on Nick, or move it to another network?

    Well, this is my first time creating a topic, but??I think it has some importance.

    A few nights ago,??I picked up the phone, and a woman asked me if i was a parent or guardian. I said, "No, I'm a kid, but you can talk to my mom." a few minutes later, my mom said my 12-year-old brother would take an online survey about kids TV shows. I thought nothing of it until he took the survey an hour ago.

    At first, they just asked how much of each kids' network he watches. He only put that he watches Cartoon Network and Nick, just like me. Then, the questions began to center around 5 shows: Ed Ed and Eddy, My Gym Partner's a Monkey, Ben 10, Pokemon, and ... Avatar. They asked a few questions about each individual show, like "Do you think this show pertains to your age group?" and "Would you like to buy merchandise from this show?" and "Do you think this show is popular?" I found it odd that besides Avatar, all the other shows were Cartoon Network.

    I've heard things like "Avatar's too good for Nick" and "it belongs on Toonami" or something, but could such a thing really happen? They seemed to want to know what the kids liked and watched. Could it be that Cartoon Network is taking Avatar into consideration? Just something I thought might be interesting to some out here.

    If avatar were put on another channel like cartoon network, they could play it late and make it REALLY violent and less little kid oriented.

    I don't know that might ruin the premise, Avatar is great without blood and profanity(although it wouldn't hurt my view!)

    im pretty sure cartoon network has had their eyes on avatar for a while,
    but nick wouldnt let go of avatar....because avatar is nick's best show...ever

    so...i personally think it should stay on nick

    cartoon network already has a bunch of cartoon shows stuffed in 1 day...
    avatar would make it worse on cartoon network

    avatar is the only thing that makes nick stand out to me....well of course for the exception of spongebob square pants=p

    but
    avatar on nick is just better

    i actually think avatar would lose some viewes if they moved t cartoon network
    i also especially think avatar DOES NOT belong in Toonami of cartoon network...for sure

    I don't see what the big deal is of it moving networks. It probably won't change the show, cause it's still gonna be the same producers, writers, animators.

    The only reason I voted to it to switch, is because I don't get Nick, so maybe I'll get lucky n they switch to some other network that I do get

    If we all really like watching avatar on nick, and we come here to talk about how much we like it, then why would we want to change it?

    I would be happy if it moved to Toonami, but there is no way Nick will give this up. Their making alot of money of the merchandise.

    well it doesent matter anyways

    nick already bought the 3rd season of avatar
    and if im sadly correct
    that might be the last season of avatar

    so nick would start playing replays

    after avatar is over,
    i think both cartoon network and nick would be playiing replays of avatar

    but cartoon network will not get avatar before avatar ends

    I won't lie Avatar is FAR too good for Nick...but Nick would kill all the talk of Avatar leaving Nick if they'd loosen the reigns of censorship...

    They wouldn't force it to be more violent but if they wanted it to be then they would let them. Anyway, Avatar would be better on CN because it wouldn't have taken them forever to put Avatar on daily every afternoon.

    Cartoon network already has enough cartoons to play daily every afternoon...
