> [@Dijon Warlock](#): > > Holy cats, I just saw a new episode today! Actually, all of the episodes featuring the cast you mentioned originally aired in early 2005. [This 2004 article](http://www.boston.com/news/globe/living/articles/2004/12/09/childrens_show_zoom_a_victim_of_ratings_drop/) says that _ZOOM_ was not doing as well as other PBS shows. It’s a shame.

Wubbell, dubbagnubbabubbit! Thubbat subbucks. **ZOOM** has been one of my favorite PBS shows ever since its inception. It’s sad, when so many PBS Kids shows really annoy me to death (Buster from the Arthur spinoff has the most annoying TV voice this side of Fran Drescher). I wonder how long they are going to leave their website up? I wonder if we can start a letter-writing campaign to get it back on the air? DVDs, anyone? Thanks for the article, **mobo85**. I thought they were still in production. Ubbalubbas. Nubbow Ubbi fubbeel trubbulubby ubbold. ---

My boyfriend and I watched it this weekend and loved it. We’d both forgotten how they hide behind their lower lips when the phone rings. Man, that show used to be so great.
