It's a Clone High thread.

Really I wanna know what the deal is.  I know it's cancelled, but for what reason?  Did the actors give up on it, or MTV give up?  Wil they ever air the last three episodes (All of which are hY-laroius)?

Clone High!

The Gandhi character offended some people in India, and like the true cowards and dickwads the MTV executives are, they decided to cancel the show all together, rather than just quit airing it in India.
I'm pretty sure there's a thread for this already. Maybe I'm wrong.

THREAD REVIVAL POWERS ACTIVATE.

If Clone High were to come back now it should definately be safe. On a channel like Comedy Central, even better. South Park got away with Mohammad, but Clone High can't have Gandhi?

SP got away with Mohammad in an early season episode, but CC were total pussies about censoring Episode 201 and Cartoon Wars Pt. 2.

Ironically, the first SP episode to feature Mohammad uncensored (Super Best Friends) aired in 2001, the year before Clone High started.

Not really ironic, not really surprising either. Two different networks two different groups of people making decisions.

Also, the South Park episode where they showed Mohammad was a few years before the controversy over the comics in the Danish newspaper. Granted that didn't make drawing Mohammad unorthodox, but it should put the idea on the forefront of people's minds, making it harder for people to miss.

Super Best Friends aired Summer of 2001, maybe it caused 9-11

It'd be really cool to see it happen, especially how the massive success they've Lord and Miller have gained in the past few years could make it very possible
