Hey folks! Long time no see, huh? Well I have been lurking around over on Tumblr. I honestly don't expect to see much activity on here. Considering most of us have poofed. Thanks to Datdude, Sadie, and Krue for keeping the lights on around here for us.
I recently went to go see Big Hero 6, and discovered in the credits that it was produced by Man of Action! That along with my son's revived obsession with Generator Rex- my own has come back rawring.
Several years have passed since Generator Rex was cut down before it's time. We were all left sitting here wondering what the hell happened with the Pack and Van Kleiss. Cartoon Network seems to have grown out of their phase of "lets put whatever trash we can throw on and see if it lasts more than two weeks." With Annoying Orange and some of the other stupid shows having long since died- I was wanting your guy's input on something. I'd love to approach Man of Action and Cartoon Network (OR Toonami) To see if they would pick the show back up. Along with Static shock and many others that are hero and action based. (It doesn't hurt that they have minorities as main characters). What do you guys think?

Best bet would be to try to get the show on the revived toonami block on adult swim. They ran symbonic titan and the thundercats reboot before so Rex is up their ally

Its been a really long time but the show is still great and holds up really well. It ended so suddenly too, why did they stop it again? its been a really long time and I don't remember. Was it the fact that the merchandise was produced by low quality companies which in turn resulted in low sales or were views down or something?
They have a pretty bad show called max steel now that seems to be going well. It has a lot of parallels with generator rex. The main character is a teenage boy who has the power to turn into different robots that can fly, smash things and drive thanks to a single small robot as opposed to many of them. Max's mum is a scientist working in some sort of corporate lab, Rexs mother figure was in a similar role. No cool evos though there are robot monsters.N-tech and providence also seem pretty similar. In fact I would go as far to say its just a bad generator Rex that seems to be doing alot better financially simply because its ran by a a couple of much bigger companies with much better quality toys and marketing.
Anyway yeah it would be awesome to somehow try get it back.
