You guys got too much to worry Let me asked you how would you fell, if Disney pro,mote season 4 now? And they tell you the first scrrening is 14 Feburary? Of course you will scream like mad but the waiting will kill you that is for sure. Disney had been trying to keep Kp survive for a very long time. The prove is they make Kp mechandise and even some awesome Kp games. If they really want to shut down Kp, they would do so long ago. See what happend to Buzz lightyear, it have only one game and only one movie. Kp have up to 3 different types of soundtrack but how much does Buzz light year have? They are well aware of this. Therefore, we should not blame them for not advertising Kp. They just want to suprise Kp fan which do not know much about what is going on in Disney. Imagine this, you do not know anything about Kp and one day, you saw a Kp coomercal that she will be returning tomoorrow. How would that feel? Well, first of all no one is suggesting Disney is intentionally trying to kill the show--that would be absurd. However, some of us are (or at least I am) questioning Disney's marketing strategy. I'd view cries of "waiting is torture" as being a good thing...but those kinds of complaints would come from the die-hards, and the die-hards are already quite aware when season 4 is about to start, and so ads won't affect them. Next, none of this should be viewed as "all or nothing." I would never suggest starting a 24/7 media blitz running from this moment until February 14 until everyone's just sick of it. But I don't see what would be wrong with dropping some subtle hints across the media. Or maybe setting up an interview about the new season with Christie Carlson Romano. Or a mention--even just once--of the new season in the Disney Adventures magazine.

Have faith, since some(most) of you are severely lacking there. And I have no faith. I just have this bad feeling that Season 4 is going to be a failure... Oh well not like it'd be the end of the world anyway! Moving on and keeping happy is my motto in life. *OH GOD WHY!!!* Anyway looking forward to the first promo as I'm sure it'll be the thread that spams on and on till we all forget what it was original meant for and Surforst stumbles in and acts all confused. Till then I'm not going to watch Disney anyway. Don't like most of their shows...

That was a great rant, Shadigo. I love the conversation between the Disney peoples.
We're all still hating on Eisner anyway. He's got a permanent spot on my hate list.
I just hope to see KP promotions. I look forward to screaming like crazy and being like, "OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! KP PROMO! AAAAAA!"
I think D.C.'s problem is they don't have like a Disney news show. I mean, Disney 365 and Mike's Super Short Show don't count. I mean, a live show aired everyday.
P.S. That's usually my exact reaction.

(I'm already about to throw up with all the videos they keep playing from that Corbin "I really need a haircut" Blue movie) But... but... his fro... that's what makes him so cute! ;D Anyways, going back on topic... I want promos! Hopefully they'll start on New Year's, and drive it into the ground like they do with any other "New" something or other... February 14th can't come soon enough.

There's no need to fear, KP IS coming, guys. I'm making calls and seeing what's going on at the studio and with the 'suits'.
Everybody is gone for the Holiday, naturally, and who can blame them?
After the holidays I'm going to resume trying to get as much info as I can to let you guys know what's going on with the powers that be.
I consider myself really lucky that these calls are local for me. LOL!
I'll keep everybody up to date with as much info as I can legally post.

This is really the only board left that is "thriving," meaning an average of 100 posts or more per day. You forgot ARA. Oh, and there is no "65-episode policy."

What do you call more than ten shows ending at 65 episodes? A coincidence?

What do you call more than ten shows ending at 65 episodes? A coincidence? My thoughts exactly. It seems like only three people in all of KP fandom believe in the 65-episode policy (or, should I say, the "cartoons-get-65-episodes" policy) anymore. Call me naive, but...

They'll advertise a year in advance for movies like High School Musical and Cheetah Girls, but their real good shows, Emperor's New School and Kim Possible, they just let die even if they renew them, they'll change them into typical American Teenager stories. How many different DVD and CD versons of High School Musical have they released, even though I haven't seen it, I could tell from the trailer that it was stupid, and yet they've released 20 different vesions campared to So the Drama and Sitch in Time getting one verson and one verson alone.

Hey, hey, hey, woah. Disney advertises its big hits, which HSM/The Cheetahs are. (Understatement of the year.) Fandom =/= generic big hits. If KP were an international superhit worthy of many news articles, StD would have multiple versions. (By the way, HSM has two versions, thank you very much. Do research next time.) Please don't get mean with the rest of the Disney Channel because one show is being kicked around. It makes me feel alone in the fact I'm the only one who doesn't mind the rest of the DC.

Well, I don't mind the rest of D.C. In fact, I'm a fan of ADJL, Hannah, and The Suite Life. And I'll watch all the other shows.
In fact, I rather fancy Life With Derek.

I just hate how Disney puts so much money on crap like <i>The Replacements,</i> <i>Brandy and Mr. Whiskers,</i> <i>That's So Raven,</i> Spin Offs, and crappy movies to crappy tv shows!!!!
Kim Possible is much better then all that crap!!!!

Today, Middleton High Auditorium and Drakken's Crib are still alive, but barely active. And for good reason: most of the members at those two forums blatantly flame the "real" KP fans (especially K/R shippers) for no reason. What do they have against us anyway?! I have no idea. But, I'm not gonna talk bad about other forums.
