I promised Elvisjj a while back that I'd post a message to all you FFF guys still doing this and I think I'm ready to say it now. Of course, I'm really glad to see this is till going. I'm sorry I gave up on you all, but in reality I lost faith in Disney all together. In my eyes Lucasfilms, or rather, Lucas Animation, took up the mantle of quality animation that I've always wanted to see on television and delivered the excellent storytelling to go with it... With The Clone Wars now finishing up its first season I'm convinced with the long life it still has (another four seasons yet to come) it is a fantastic series- better than KP in my opinion. With the subjects it touches and its unique approach... this was what I wanted all along when I started this. And I'm happier that it didn't come out of Disney with its snobby and greedy attitude. Hopefully more companies will take up Lucas Animation's example and produce more shows like Clone Wars and Avatar and less shows like that island survivor thing. So, in that sense, for me- the fight is over. I wish you all the best of luck if you do carry on and I don't intend on discouraging anyone. And if it is any help, I'm more than ready to appoint an admin for the Fight For Five facebook group, there are still members there and I'm sure it'll pick up if it's administered well and updated regularly. Send me a PM or post on here and I'll respond to you.

For me, it's a fight against all the companies that makes Great Shows like Kim Possible and Clone Wars, then somewhere down the path, they are drawn to the Dark Side. After aquiring a base of fans, they start making shows of substandard quality, hiring cheap writers, cheaper animation, hoping that no one will notice and will just stay and keep watching. And, yes we can only hope that other companies will take up Lucas Animation's example and produce more shows like Clone Wars and Avatar, but alas it usually turn out to be the other way around where they want something New and Cheap over something that is Old but Still Great. I am not against something New as long as the quality of the show is kept up and not down. I think that Batman The Brave and the Bold is Awesome! They took something Old and made it New and Fresh again. Clone Wars is Awesome, as well. But IMO, companies will continue this trend of making Bad shows after Good ones, unless Fans take a stand. If not Kim Possible, then when and which show? Avatar, Clone Wars, Batman Brave and the Bold, or some other Future Great Show. If there is a Fan Base for a Show, it should stay in production until the majority of Fans loose interest. And not when the companies see that they got a Good Enough Fan Base, so now they can start cutting costs by producing substandard shows to replace them with. And I don't have any problems with people that just want to move on to other things. That's Life. I wish you all the Best. And Thank You for all that you have done for the KPFFF. Please and Thank You, Tony M. Victorino

We're sorry to lose you, DC. You were a great member of the FFF and had a way of keeping us together. Don't worry, we intend to complete what you started. Hopefully it won't be long before Disney decides to bring KP back, and maybe in the process of restoring KP to television, we'll restore your faith in Disney.

Thanks guys for all your kind words. I'm gonna miss working with you all- it's been a fun and a unique experience. Without you this function wouldn't have gone on for more than a few weeks and each of you gave a unique contribution to this campaign, which nearly two years on I'm stunned is still going! But I have to pass on a special thanks to Killerbebe. He gave us a symbol and the merchandise that was very encouraging. And he gave me some things to remember you all by as well. Eddybob, I hope you're right but just because I'm no longer in on this doesn't mean I won't still be catching up on how things are going with you guys. I also remembered this website: fightforkp.com/I'll inform Phil as soon as any of you tell me you're ready to administer the facebook group and the website. You'll need them, you know.

Well Darth good to finally hear from you. As I told you personally you will be missed brow.
You started all this with Chin, I just jumped aboard for the ride. The Fight For Five is still so much on, and will be heading to bolder new frontiers as we're going to focus more on public support and the media. As Disney doesn't seem to get our point otherwise.
Your work will never be forgotten. I regret you leaving but you must do what you feel is best for you and the Fight For Five must respect that as much as I do.
All the best Darth and if you ever decide to join us again, we'd welcome you back with open arms. As the Fight For Five isn't just about Kim Possible...IT'S ABOUT STANDING UP FOR THE FANS and making both networks and studios listen to the fans and not just make them out to be puppets like we're considered right now too be.

It's good to hear from you again, Elvisjj. Your efforts are much appreciated and I've always enjoyed exchanging all the wonderful ideas we shared for this great campaign. As I said earlier, the website and facebook group are ready for new management, just let me know when anyone is ready to take them up and I'll make the necessary arrangements.

We all hate to loose you man, and as a fellow Star Wars fan I can understand but I'm willing to continue the fight. I hope someday you can comeback and help us, but for now enjoy other things, yet us continue the mission and we're try to do the job right. Maybe Disney and others will look on this fight that they should listen to the fans, and generations can look back at this a inspiration of strong will and determination to fight for something you love.

Well count me in as a Star Wars fan too, especially of the old episodes Star Wars, Star Wars the Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars the Return of the Jedi. You will be greatly missed darth, as patwinter brought this website to my attention. It actually has you in it, as well as me and others from the Fight For Five. I'll be looking to update it soon with new information and it's too bad you won't be part of it, as it says...you and Chin started all this I just came along for the ride. The link to this website is below Darth and for all other Fight For Five fans to check out. As we will update it as well. The link is below. www.fanhistory.com/wiki/The_Fight_for_FiveAnd darth, I talked to killerbebe and he'd be interested in taking over the official Save Kim Possible site so I'll let him know to contact you or contact him.

Well, I have to say I haven't done much for the FFF in months. I guess I just move onto other things. Working, chatting with some old friends and the works. Plus, I, move onto promoting the Spider-Girl comic. New favoite animated series is "the Spectacular Spider-Man", has two seasons under it's belt, which trumps all animated shows currently on air. Been enjoying The Clone Wars, and Batman: The Brave and the Bold aswell. I guess I'll part ways with the FFF, with same words of encouragement that was pass down from Darth Comrade. I also have the Fight for KP MySpace page which I haven't updated in ages and is willing to turn that over to anyone that is interested.

Well danman007 we haven't heard from you in a long while, get to hear your spiderman fan as I am too, but I'm still a big Kim Possible fan and I believe it's a show so worth fighting for and saving and bringing back.
Hope you still stick around danman007, but as I mentioned to Darth you all must make your own choices.
