I thought it was terribly poignant, how they had to explain the existence of Mini-Moose, since the episode where he was introduced was scrubbed.

My children and I refer to Nickelodeon as “the network that shall not be named.”

May I humbly suggest that the network that shall not be named is at least giving better treatment to Zim then they did to Ren & Stimpy? On R&S, they fired the original creator, threw out the bulk of the biting social commentary, and only left the booger and fart jokes. Then milked the franchise for several more seasons.
