It was canceled. I believe it was because of ratings and not very good fan perception, but I may be wrong.
There's a method to my madness, I just haven't figured it out yet.

I can't imagine why they could possibly have had reason to cancel such a terrible show.  ::)

Actually this one is my fault:
See, after sitting through the first season I gathered my things and when on a mission. Once I got to my destination I destroyed the shows' effects machines, freed the animals and warned the people in charge that if this afront to Animorphs was not stopped, well, bad things would happen.





To this day I'm hard pressed to say I ever met a fan of the show in real life. Shows without fans get dropped. And in this case, I don't complain
Something, something, oh crap I pissed everyone off again....

Was it hard destroying an old apple lisa, some old halloween masks, and incorrect animal species?

I mean come on the show was just horrible. I loved it when I was younger, but even then I saw problems. The controls for a Yeerk Blade ship were comprised of a mixing board.

There was honestly no way they were going to get that far. The fans of the books who became the fans of the show were really obviously disappointed. they show didn't have very good ratings, which caused it to be pulled off the air.

Yeah. And I also read somewhere that they thought the plot was a little too dark, lol. Yeah, but the show sucked. I kind of wish they would make a movie. A really good movie, with really good actors and special effects and a director who actually bothered to read the books.
If you are not in my avatar, and would like to be, or if you changed your name and avatar and would like me to update it, PM me. I cannot add or change anyone at the moment as I lost the file I use for this, but if people still want in, I'll work on it.

the thing is...how many movies would it take?

Yeah, the darkness of the plot was most likely a factor. For some reason, Nick and Disney Channel decided to pull everything good off the air just cuz they weren't kiddie enough.

I still liked it for a while but I encountered it before the series. Now watching it is like watching Plan 9 from Outer Space. Watching the mistakes is great. Just someone please tell me where on earth they got some of these plot lines from. Where the hell is the disk from? I get its Elfangor's Hirac Delest but why make that up? There was so much junk they put in there. The worst sometimes was the puppets. If you really go through the show bit by bit there are so many mistakes that can be found. Not just story, but technical mistakes. One of my favorites is that when Jake acquires a tiger his hand reaches from the right but the camera shows the hand on the tiger coming from the left. The Hawk that is Tobias not only has the hawking straps on its feet, but is the wrong species of Hawk altogether. K.A. even says she only watched about 2 episodes. She hoped it would have been animated.

Which is completely stupid, because now they have TV shows with young teens making out. For kids.

I would see the Animorphs movie. I mean, they could do just one for The Invasion. Then there's a problem, though. All of the people who liked it would be saying, "Hey, when's the next one coming out?"

Yeah. I loved all those cool shows on Disney and the classic offensive Nice shows were great. 

There's no way they could do just one for the Invasion without having to continue. They could probably do like two books per movie. But that'd still include a lot of movies.
