“I guess it’s still going.”
Oof! No, this show was canceled before it even premiered because Nickelodeon felt the show was becoming too expensive. While they were in the middle of production for season 2 (and I mean an actual season 2, the season 2 listed here is really just the second half of the first season), the entire staff was laid off unless they were needed for post-production. So while it’s possible the show could be revived if the fans proved it’s popularity, it would be an uphill battle. The saddest part is the second season was supposed to have an episode that crossed over with The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, with Kevin Eastman voicing Shredder.
It really is a shame because this show is fantastic and it deserves to have run longer. It’s such a fun and clever premise that I’m surprised that it hasn’t been done before.
Hyperactive characters are usually hit or miss with me, and Miko is definitely a hit. She’s just so charming and friendly that it’s hard not to like her. It also helps that there are some episode that explore and develop her relationship with her sisters.
I’m glad you guys really enjoyed this show and that you’ll be watching the rest of it. You’ll also see that Mitch is a more complex character than he appears, which BUDS already kind of showed.
