Yeah, I'm blogging about Phantom Planet. I tried not to have high expectations so I wouldn't be disappointed,  and I guess that worked because I really liked the episode. It was pretty sweet finale. Valerie didn't have much closure and Tucker somehow managed to become mayor of Amity Park, but considering the fact that Butch and his team had to fit a decent finale into a double-episode, it went really well. Kudos, Butch! Even though DP didn't have a long run, it was still a good one. I'm glad the series ended on a good note. (Now I just need to see Torrent of Terror, Claw of the Wild, Boxed Up Fury, and Living Large. :P I never got around to seeing those, and the finale was too tempting so I skipped them.)

Unlike a lot of people, though, I'm not depressed. Sure, I'm sad that we won't be getting anymore new episodes, but the ones we had were good. What if it was like Spongebob, where it's still going but the quality dropped? If you look at the other side of the situation, DP has a different kind of luck. It didn't have a long run, but it had a good run. It was great while it lasted, and the series will live on in reruns, fanfiction, fanart, and the fans who love it. It's out of production, not cancelled. Nick has made several bad decisions with stopping the production of past shows and we've all moved on. I know it's saddening, but there is always some optimism when things look rough. We survived before DP began, right? We'll find new things to do, and we can still go on the forum to chat about DP. I know I'm not leaving this site. I have friends here.

...Anywho, that's the end of my rambling on DP's finale. And speaking of finales, I finally finished watching Fruits Basket. If you like romantic comedies or tearjerkers (or bishonen :P), it's a good anime.  Next up is Wolf's Rain, since I still can't find more episodes of FMA. *sigh* Or maybe I'll take a break from anime and catch up on Avatar. I've been meaning to watch that, but I haven't been kept up with it for a while and I've gotten real behind. Of course, that can only mean one thing: weekend marathon. ^^
