Some people may ask, "Why Invader Zim first?" I say SCREW IT, ILL DO WHAT I WANT! In any case, the show is one of my favorites. It represents a better time for Nick. Better shows, better actors, better Nick. Altough this is a time since past, Nicktoons has made the GENIUS(sp?) decision to bring it back.
If you look at the definition of Invader Zim on Wikipedia(again, sp?), it says that IZ employs a comedy style called "black comedy". Basically, this means that IZ uses dark methods of humor, such as the gluttonus "Bloaty the Pizza Hog", or perhaps just the dark scenery in IZ (it gives a very dark feel). For this reason, it attracted many teen and young adults, but because Nick was so strongheaded and stupid, IZ never recieved the correct time period, and veiwings suffered.
IZ is one of those shows that no one will truly understand. Perhaps even Johnen Vasquez does not understand it (which is highly likely). Its main base plot is based upon this chaos and confusion, as GIR's chaotic personality and the overall pandamonium of the show make it memorable.
Overall, the show, with proper veiwing time and fanbase, would make an explosion of ratings and provide Nick with thousands more fans and millions more dollars.
I give it a 4 out of a possible 5
