Cmon guy, at least read your own thread.

I mean, I'd be willing to give you a pass if the name didn't explicitly have Mummies in the title, but as is...

I used to watch this religiously as a kid. Definitely my favorite.

Too bad only like, six of the episodes stand up nowadays, most of them are pretty terrible.

EDIT: I apologize--there are a total of eight episodes which stand up nowadays.

Oddly enough, like Swatkats, this show was canceled dispite being it's network's highest rated show.

The same number as there are Robot Masters.

Coincidence. . . or Conspiracy?

Apparently it was for budgetary reasons. Which is odd because many of the episodes had terrible animation to begin with, so it couldn't have been the animation budget...

EDIT: Good theory on Wikipedia: "The decision to end the cartoon was handed down from Capcom, most likely due to merchandising pressures from toy-partner Bandai, which cut several other popular toy lines at the time short due to not meeting sales expectations (including The Tick, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball)"

Which is weird because I actually owned Megaman toys. Like that was one of the few name-brand toys I owned.

Apparently it's true what they say, a lot of these shows existed only to sell toys.

And sadly a lot of great shows end up dieing because they can't get a good toy sale. Simbionic Titan being a prime victim.

Lucky for Generator Rex, it ended before this could happen to it. As for Ben 10, well now it's more or less being milked into the ground at this point. Don't get me wrong I love Omniverse so far but it just seems like the show is grasping at straws for plot now.

I don't understand anything you just said so I'm going to assume those were 2000s TV shows WHICH SHALL NE'ER BE SPOKEN OF INFIDEL

Eh more like late 2000s. Nearly all of the old shows were on the air up till 2005.

Granted they are back on the air now, but they only air during friday nights.

Simbionic Titan was Creig's (the guy who made Dexter's lab, Samurai Jack, and Powerpuff girls) last show for good old CN. After they backstabed him and canned his show. He basicly gave them the finger and left to do other things.
