Heh.  Too bad it was cancelled.

GADS! When did THIS happen? Tell me! Tell me now! (by private e-mail please,
I'm already a habitual spammer, help me to break the cycle!)

Whelp...


Can't say anything about Canada, but ABC in the US has canceled the show from what I 
hear.  Apparently the demographics were too slim (only attracts people like us...)

I'll try to keep this short cause it's spaaammmmm!!    ^_^

Reboot was cancelled by ABC because Disney bought out the network and
replaced _ALL_ saturday morning cartoon shows with their own shows. Reboot
wasn't the only loss. Bumb In The Night, another great one was also
cancelled (plus a lot of drek too).

But Reboot isn't dead. They're still making episodes. The third season
starts here in Canada (where it's made) in just a few weeks. On YTV, a
kids network in Canada, they show Reboot three times a week, during the
evening when its prime demographic group can watch it. And it *HUGELY*
popular. Perhaps the single most popular program they run.

As for the USA, the distributors are supposed to be announcing something
soon about the show airing in the states on another network. But I haven't
heard anything yet.  I suggest a defection to Canada. ^_^

For more information check out the reboot newsgroup: alt.tv.reboot


And finally, to drag to discussion back to marginally on topic, Sailor
Moon suffered a similar fate not to long ago. In Canada, on YTV, it was
shown in a proper timeslot (twice a day, at noon and at 5pm) and it was
wildly popular. But in the states they did stupid things and it ended up
being cancelled. And from what I understand, it isn't coming back. 

*sigh*
