VICKY
HAS VICKY EVER HAD HER OWN PAGE?I THINK SHE SOULD GET ONE. AAP52 23:19, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

SO MANY THING ABOUT VICKY SHE IS CHEATING AND SO SICKY AND DO A BAD THINGS TO THE CHILDREN WHILE IN CHANNEL CHESSERS HERE THE STORY;

During a showdown with Vicky, his future self is forced to return to the future due to Vicky destroying the time travel belt, leaving Timmy determined to defeat Vicky. Realizing that magic is the only reason she had the advantage, Timmy uses the remote to age himself so that he becomes too old for Cosmo and Wanda, resulting in all residual effects of their magic- including the remotes- being erased. With Timmy's proper age restored, he then comes out of the TV. His parents apologize for never believing him about Vicky and tell Vicky off for being so evil to Timmy. Because his parents now know the truth about her Timmy will never have to be babysat by her again. However, Timmy realizes that it is because of Vicky he got fairy godparents so rather than get rid of Vicky, he wishes that nobody would remember this, as with Vicky gone he might lose Cosmo and Wanda. In "Party of Three" and "Remy Rides Again," Vicky was not babysitting Timmy, whom still had his godparents, but perhaps Timmy just wanted to be better safe than sorry. Tootie, AJ and Chester forget about "Timmy-related" topics. Crocker, who was hospitalized, thought the cold fusion generator he made was magic. Timmy later buried a "time capsule" in his backyard to remind himself of somethings in the future and vows to never make the same mistakes his parents made.

The movie ends soon afterwards with a scene that flash-forwards to 20 years into the future - Timmy has two children named Tommy and Tammy. Tammy has Trixie Tang's hairstyle and Tootie's distinctive glasses, and Tommy's hair suggests either Tootie or Trixie. The adult Timmy was shown leaving for work, and hired a babysitting robot, which is built and acts like Vicky, to baby-sit his children, who have become scared of it/her. Before Timmy leaves for work, he looks at the photograph that Vicky took at the beginning of the movie, but the goldfish have normal eyes and shape, leaving no memory of his childhood fairies. It is noted that they looked oddly familiar. He also notices something about the bot but since he was late he had to go. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hazeeq nobita (talk • contribs) 04:00, 21 June 2008

New character?
Just because the new character is supposedly going to be a baby doesn't mean Timmy's mom or Wanda will have it. For all we know someone on the show could be adopting a kid! Anyone ever think of that?208.3.110.254 (talk) 15:20, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Centralized TV Episode Discussion
Over the past months, TV episodes have been redirected by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here. Even if you have not, other opinions are needed because this issue is affecting all TV episodes in Wikipedia. --User: (talk) 23:24, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

I deleted the "second only to Spongebob Squarepants" quote. It is no longer true. "Back to the Barnyard" is now Nick's second-most popular animated show. Nowadays FOP seldom makes even the top 40 Nielsen ratings list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ruggles (talk • contribs) 05:32, 28 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Impossible. Most people don't like the new Nicktoons nowadays because Nickelodeon jumped the shark a long time ago.  And from my understanding, FOP remains #2 to SpongeBob. Marcus2 (talk) 23:23, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

MGM?
How did MGM get involved with this show? Nelvana distributes the show outside the US, Nickelodeon (part of Viacom) produced it, yet MGM's going to syndicate the show. How did that happen? 71.111.214.157 (talk) 16:04, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Pop Culture References
I am going to remove the Pop Culture References. The show makes dozens of them per episode, and i doubt that you could say an obscure reference to Mace Windu can be considered the most important. It seems that someone got started on the section and forgot about it.

Series finale?
So yeah, with that commercial that's announced for a new special tomorrow, it's said to be the last episode. Really? I don't think so. There's newer episodes this week as well. And if you read the summary, and especially the title "Crocker Shocker", doesn't really feel like the ending. It's what Nickelodeon's commercial that lost me. They nearly did the same thing with The Mighty B! last week and then they announced new episodes the rest of the week. FOP is also having new episodes this week as well, like Super Zero or Frenemy Need (or how those episodes are). Don't think that Fairly OddParents isn't ending anytime soon. --Wikialexdx (talk) 23:21, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

It's a movie
Nickelodeon Orders Live-Action Movie Adaptation of The Fairly Oddparents:

http://www.tvguide.com/News/Fairly-Oddparents-Movie-1020888.aspx (Updated URL: https://www.tvguide.com/news/fairly-oddparents-movie-1020888/ – article date: July 23, 2010)

>The animated series focused on 10-year-old Timmy’s refusal to grow up, so he could keep his fairy godparents. In the movie, an older Timmy is still in the fifth grade and living at home, but all that changes when he begins to have feelings for Tootie (Victorious’ Daniella Monet), a nerdy girl who has grown into a beautiful woman and returned to town. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.74.195.120 (talk) 11:14, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Run-on jokes?
It seems like Butch Hartman (or his writers) like to do this in most, if not all, of his shows. They'll have a joke in the beginning of the show, and it runs on throughout the episode. For example, in one episode of Fairly OddParents, something bad would happen (I think because of Cosmo's doing?) and he would say, "Don't look at me, I'm just a [x]", x being a different occupation each time (firemen, laywer, etc.). Note that my memory is a little fuzzy, but you get the idea. While I can't find a video online of any specific example, I hope that others can further explain what I'm talking about. This also happens in T.U.F.F Puppy, but I'm not sure if it happened in Danny Phantom. - Bkid My talk/Contribs 19:35, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Criticism?
Yeah as I reader of Wikipedia I think it would be very interesting to have a section on both positive and negative critism on "The Fairly Oddparents." Actually due to the popularity of the show and the fan base I'm a bit surprised it doesn't already have criticism.

Nicktoons
- Episode premiers have moved to Nicktoons now (see AV Club). Why do you keep removing it?  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) 22:37, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Unsourced trivia
I have just removed the unsourced trivial claim that "The Fairly OddParents is the second longest-running Nicktoon, behind SpongeBob SquarePants (in terms of years run). "

The hidden comment is needed because there is no reliable source to pin this on. What do we have?

Is this the longest running show on TV? No.

Is this the second longest running show on TV? No.

Is this the second longest running cartoon on TV? No.

Is this the second longest running cartoon on Nick? No.

This is, according to original research by someone, the second longest running cartoon on Nick in terms of years run.

The reason there isn't a reliable source for this is that it is a trivial claim. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 19:51, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't know... WP:CALC seems applicable here. But a source would be nice.  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) 22:38, 22 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm not saying it isn't necessarily true, I'm saying it is someone bending over backwards to create an "honor" for the show. "He was the tallest member of a Best Album winning band who played guitar but was not named 'John'."


 * Based on this one, we should also have the (second/first) longest running (drama/cartoon/sitcom/reality show/news program/documentary series) on (Nick/Disney/HBO/NBC/CBS/ABC/PBS/MTV/VH1/Comedy Central/TLC/etc.) in terms of (number of years/number of episodes/number of seasons). I'd conservatively estimate we'd have several thousand articles to update. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 05:31, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Anyone more familiar with the series than I care to add it to this list?

Cancelled?
The show doesn't have a announcement about Season 11,you know the deal,we should wait until a year has passed since the lastest episodes airdate,if there is NONE announcement then we can edit the page to say it ended. What do you think about this? Bang. (talk) 23:02, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

Fairly OddParents Series Finale
My request is to change the show's finale date. Change the show run from "March 30, 2001-present" to "March 30, 2001-July 26th, 2017" because I found a post on Twitter where someone found out that Butch mentioned on his Speech Bubble podcast that there are no more Fairly OddParents episodes for Nickelodeon. Here is the link https://twitter.com/JeffJefferson79/status/962200265762922496 2600:1702:AB0:F540:E1C0:890:A589:1CEC (talk) 20:51, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

 * ❌. See above. Amaury ( talk &#124; contribs ) 02:21, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Look, I watched the whole podcast and he literally just said there are no more Fairly Oddparents episodes! He even mentioned that his whole crew for the show left, including himself. If the show ended production, that means it's over, so please change the show's status! — Preceding unsigned comment added by BillK2002 (talk • contribs) 18:17, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * ❌. See comments by in the edit history of the article. Just because it's ended production doesn't mean it's completely over. When Chris Savino was fired, it had no impact on The Loud House, which is still continuing its run. Something similar could happen here. Additionally, just because it's ended production of episodes doesn't mean there aren't still episodes to air. So, until a year has passed since the last episode or there's an official announcement explicitly stating The Fairly OddParents is canceled, the status stays as present. Amaury ( talk &#124; contribs ) 18:23, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I listened to the podcast too and didn't hear anything that explicitly stated the show is not going to be renewed, that it is cancelled and definitely gone for good. He left open a possibility of it continuing. I really don't like using this sort of source without a transcript to refer to published by a reliable source so we don't get into these types of interpretation of what exactly did he say and what does it mean conflicts. Also I don't recognize the reference, who is Soundcloud user-978368492 who posted this, and am dubious it meets WP:IRS requirements in the first place to use a source for anything in this and related articles. Geraldo Perez (talk) 18:47, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * With respect to the Soundcloud source specifically, how can we show that this is an account controlled by Hartman so we can use it as a reference at all? Does he point to it from his verified account on some other media. Is it referred to by a reliable secondary source. Basically how do we know it is him other than saying it is self-validating based on contents, and content alone. Self-validating is generally not sufficient to be considered a reliable source absent other proof. Geraldo Perez (talk) 19:31, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * But there are no more episodes of FOP left, and when you mentioned The Loud House creator being fired, that's a different story. Chris was fired because of sexual harassment, and Butch left because he wanted to focus on other things. If you go to the 28 minute mark, Butch stated "We're not going to do any more Fairly Oddparents", indicating that the show is done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BillK2002 (talk • contribs) 19:26, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * So you either want a source (even though that was one) or have us wait until July 26th if there’s no confirmation on to edit it to ended, correct?GalaxyFighter55 (talk) 19:35, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * "Focus on other things" is a general soft way of saying terminated in corporate speak. He made a conditional statement where he could have outright stated "the network is not renewing the show so we quit". We shouldn't be making certain statements in articles based on implications of what someone said particularly when he could have made a certain statement himself when given the chance. He left open later that he would be open to continuing if permitted so looks a bit like things may still be up in the air and maybe still being negotiated. Again wish we had a certified transcript. Geraldo Perez (talk) 19:51, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Two issues, the source is not clear and the source is potentially not a reliable one. The options is to wait for the network to say something, some reliable secondary source to report cancellation, or wait a year for no new episodes. Hartman would be sufficient as show runner if he stated in some verified account of his outright that the show has been cancelled and all outstanding episodes have aired. Geraldo Perez (talk) 19:51, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I know there's a source here. His Speech Bubble tells you that there are no more FOP episodes and lots of people who saw it knows it's over. Can you please edit it to end? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by BillK2002 (talk • contribs) 19:46, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * No, and it's already been explained why: 1) that does not appear to be a "verified" account, and 2) the words "the show has been cancelled" are never stated. All we seem to be able to get on this is that the show is "on hiatus" again, but on hiatus ≠ "cancelled". --IJBall (contribs • talk) 21:18, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

Dude, Butch said on his podcast “We’re not gonna do anymore Fairly OddParents”, indicating that it is DONE! THAT IS ANOTHER WAY TO SAY IT IS CANCELLED! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1702:ab0:f540:f01c:6836:71b7:3401 (talk • contribs) 03:17, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * That means he won't be doing any more. That doesn't mean Nickelodeon won't do more with another showrunner. IOW, once again, this doesn't in any way confirm that the show is over. The only ones who can do that are Nickelodeon. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 13:56, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The creator can also make decisions too. By the way, if you want a ¨source¨, here´s another one to prove I´m right https://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/danny-phantom-fairly-oddparents-butch-hartman-left-nickelodeon/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by BillK2002 (talk • contribs) 16:46, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * That source also doesn't say anything about the cancellation of the series. It just says that it has "ceased production", because of Hartman's departure. And to my knowledge, tvseriesfinale.com isn't a reliable source. MPFitz1968 (talk) 16:58, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes – what I think can be said at this point is that Butch Hartman left Nickelodeon (and TFOP) after production on the tenth season of TFOP had wrapped. But that applies to Butch Hartman – it doesn't say anything about the future fate of TFOP... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 17:44, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * But ending production means that the show is over. There are no more episodes left. I know it doesn't mention Nickelodeon cancelling the show but if Butch said he wants to end his show(which he did on his podcast) due to him leaving, then Nickelodeon will agree with him.BillK2002 (talk) 18:12, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * It wasn't really his show in terms of who legally owns it and even though he was creator and show runner he was doing work for hire to the network who really are the ones that own the property. I think we all agree that the show is likely done when the creative force behind it is done but the network might choose to continue with another showrunner as is their right as they do own it. Other shows have lost their original creator and continued on, The Simpsons for one, this one might too. Unlikely but still would be great if we got something official from the network itself instead of inducing intent from somewhat unclear words spoken on a dubious source. Geraldo Perez (talk) 19:41, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I know Nick owns the rights to the show and can do what they want. In fact, Butch said unless Nick wants to do more(which is unlikely), the show is done. BillK15 (talk) 21:10, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Butch released a video for a FAQ of why he’s leaving Nick and when someone asked him what was Timmy’s last wish(although it has nothing to do as to what I’m trying to say), Butch mentioned that he didn’t know that FOP is ending so he never gave Timmy a last wish before he answered someone’s question.

If I can add my two cents, just because production ended doesn't mean there aren't unaired episodes. Hey Arnold! ended production in 2001, but didn't stop airing new episodes until 2004. Yes, the show is likely finished, but unfortunately, we don't have any reliable sources at this moment to tell us so, so it's best to just leave it as is for the time being. Dpm12 (talk) 07:29, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3XgQhcP0XE At the 14:39 mark, Butch mentioned that he didn't know the show was ending that he didn't give Timmy a final wish in the show, indicating that it straight up got cancelled without Nickelodeon telling us. BillK2002 (talk) 23:27, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Nickelodeon posted a tweet on their Twitter page giving special thanks to Butch for all of his work for 20 years.

 * Once again, as many people has said, Butch did NOT say that the show was ending or cancelled. And even if he says the show is ending, Nick COULD continue the show without them if they wanted too (very unlikely but a possibility), for example Spongebob was ended after its creator left Nickelodeon in 2003 and the show continued without him. Please wait until an official announcement or July 26th 2018 (just like we did with other TV shows). Bunsen has been cancelled by Nick themselves as they stated it. Bang.

 * But, he said he didn't know the show was ending. I don't think he would've said that if Nick planned to continue the show without him, would he?2600:1702:AB0:F540:A:D8E3:51FF:2481 (talk) 00:43, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Now Butch Hartman finally confirmed that The Fairly OddParents is cancelled. Watch this video for proof: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43VxQEuKqww - User:SquarePants122
 * Still not concrete. Nickelodeon could very well continue the show without him. We need something from Nickelodeon themselves. Amaury ( talk &#124; contribs ) 04:10, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
 * https://twitter.com/nickandmore/status/969066493542617089 Nickandmore is never wrong. They've figured out the 5 times it was cancelled, including after episode 172. Another thing. How could Nickelodeon continue a show that got pushed to Nicktoons where all shows go and die at and never get renewed? Not all the time you have to hear from Nickelodeon tHemseleves. TUFF Puppy was cancelled without any announcement from Nickelodeon. And if you watched the video, he's even speaking PAST TENSE!! Why can't you just accept the fact the show is OVER?! 2600:1702:AB0:F540:5CEF:3E74:3FE0:3A9A (talk) 12:14, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The fact that it's been canceled that many times and then uncanceled means we can't say that this recent "cancellation" is absolute. If this were the first time, then it might be a different story, but since it's been done that many times, we have to leave the door open to the possibility that it's only temporary again. It's still very possible that the series could be uncanceled again. Once it gets to be a year since the last new episode and there has been no news, then can say the series has ended. Also, that statement about Nicktoons being where series go to die is total WP:OR. Amaury ( talk &#124; contribs ) 15:24, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Some users are right. The Fairly OddParents isn't cancelled, because Fred Seibert is still around. I hope he will continue the series, since he's one of the executive producers of The Fairly OddParents. DarthonTheOverseer (talk) 15:40, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
 * http://www.nickandmore.com/2018/03/06/nickelodeon-upfront-2018/ It appears that Fairly OddParents wasn't mentioned at the Nickelodeon 2018 Upfront. Is this reliable enough or do you guys want to keep waiting? Secondly, Fred Seibert isn't at Nick anymore because there isn't any show that he is currently producing for the network. 2600:1702:AB0:F540:2817:DEC9:4375:5871 (talk) 00:01, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Ignoring the fact that nickandmore is not a reliable source in general but assume they did accurately report what happened at the upfront all we know is that the network hasn't renewed the series as of the date of the upfront presentation. This still leaves open the possibility that they might in the future. Still the lack of mention at the upfront tells where the network is likely headed. Geraldo Perez (talk) 18:02, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Agreed. The fates of Henry Danger and Game Shakers also weren't announced, but they're still pretty early into their current seasons, and I think Game Shakers third season is still in production, so we'll probably find out about those later. (Side note: Game Shakers wasn't even mentioned at all in terms of the X amount of episodes Nickelodeon will roll out this year, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.)

I'm sure that when I watched Butch's podcast, he mentioned that the crew left before he did earlier. So, if the whole FOP crew, including Hartman himself left, then I don't see the reason for the show to continue. Why do we have to wait until July 26th for you guys to edit the show's status if Nickelodeon is clearly never going to announce the show's cancellation, but Butch did on his podcast? Another thing. He said that unless Nick calls him to do more FOP, which will likely be a TV Movie like some classic Nick shows are currently receiving that will wrap up the series, the show is over. Also, user-978368492 is Speech Bubble by Butch Hartman, just in case if you're going to ask me that. https://soundcloud.com/user-978368492/why-i-left-nickelodeon 2600:1702:AB0:F540:3951:A4E9:448F:B9A8 (talk) 23:22, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Why do we have to wait until July 26th for you guys to edit the show's status if Nickelodeon is clearly never going to announce the show's cancellation, but Butch did on his podcast? ... It is quite frustrating for us Wikipedians to wait to hear that a show has not been renewed (or has been cancelled) when it comes to Nick or Disney Channel, but the guideline is clear we must wait till they say so, or until 12 months from the date of the last aired episode (see Template:Infobox television instructions for "last_aired"). Also, Hartman doesn't speak for the network on this decision (of renewal/cancellation). unless Nick calls him to do more FOP ... see, that's still a possibility, so we can't clearly say that the show is completely over. MPFitz1968 (talk) 15:09, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

I'm very sorry for annoying you guys. I never read the guideline until now. 2600:1702:AB0:F540:9C23:CEBF:439C:F220 (talk) 01:47, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

I found a video that has nothing to do with cancellation, but Butch mentioned on this video that the show ran for 16 years (2001-17), which indicates that the show finished its run. Go to 1:00 mark. Is this proof to you guys? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbsuwZ-YYtI2600:1702:AB0:F540:1C59:D1F5:8CA0:DA9 (talk) 00:35, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

He did not state the words "cancelled", and "ending". So even if he said it ran for 17 years, there is a possibility that the show can have another year of new episodes. CriticismEdits (talk) 14:41, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

But not likely. Still, as much as I want to edit it to say it ended and get it over with, this site just does NOT work this way. None of these sources are reliable, in fact, this site itself is not reliable. Just wait until the 26th of July 2018. Bang. (talk) 17:07, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

Except the show is already listed as having ended in 2017 in 2017 in American television--Harmony944 (talk) 21:41, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

Please edit that. We once again, have to either wait for July 26th or wait for an announcement from the network. Bang. (talk) 10:55, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Episode count
Not sure where to put this, but the episode count should be 172. 60 and 90 minute specials counts as 2 and 3 half hours except for the Jimmy/Timmy Power Hour trilogy.2600:1702:AB0:F540:ACD2:692A:4E97:3091 (talk) 20:16, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Reiterating the "last_aired" in infobox (re: Cancellation?)
There has been a rash of IP users setting the "last_aired" date to July 26, 2017 (in technical terms, changing to July 26, 2017)), without a reliable source indicating official word from Nickelodeon that it has indeed been cancelled. Unless a source to that effect is provided, or until July 26, 2018 (a full year since the last aired episode), the "last_aired" should not be changed. Also stated in the accompanying hidden note, with additional explanation (see ).

Approaching one year since the last aired episode - Template:Show by date
On July 26, the last_aired in the infobox will change from "present" to July 26, 2017, barring a reliable source saying that Nickelodeon will continue the series. As we are using the Show by date template, the time that this change happens may not be what is desired; it might happen just after 00:00 UTC (July 26), which will still be July 25 in the US. (I did read about the "hour" parameter in the template's instructions, but I don't know whether I'll use it.) Also, since I'm not sure when on July 26, 2017, the last episode originally aired on Nickelodeon, I can't say for sure when it will be exactly one year. I'd probably be inclined to let Show by date do its job (whether or not we use the "hour" parameter) and let the result stand. Of course, if any edits (especially by IPs) change the last_aired before Show by date would show (or truncate itself to) July 26, 2017, I'd still revert. MPFitz1968 (talk) 17:37, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * See here. Amaury ( talk &#124; contribs ) 17:42, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. So I see 9:00pm (I'll assume US Eastern Time zone) on July 26, 2017, which would translate to 01:00 UTC July 27 (or a half hour after that to account for when the episode finished airing). That means if we're waiting for exactly one year to elapse, the Show by date may need to be adjusted, or we'll see the last_aired switch one day early. MPFitz1968 (talk) 17:49, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * No need for this to be exact to the minute. Within a day is close enough. Geraldo Perez (talk) 18:43, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

 * ✅ Article updated to remove the Show by date, as the infobox is already showing July 26, 2017 for the end date, even with that template. MPFitz1968 (talk) 01:52, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Number of episodes
The episode list is sort of messed up. Movies/Specials that are 60 or 90 minutes count as 2 or 3 half hours according to production codes. Second, there are episodes that are on the wrong season, most notably, Season 8. They have 6 episodes, not 11 for example. You can go to the FOP WIKIA and see how it’s set up. Can someone fix this Seasons 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 so it can be 172 episodes instead of 161 episodes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1702:1F0:3090:FDB0:3074:EFA:B478 (talk) 20:12, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
 * A movie or a special counts as what they are, 1 movie or 1 special, length irrelevant. Production codes are interesting accounting information about the number of production slots used to create the single output. Wikia does not guide how Wikipedia documents a series. Geraldo Perez (talk) 20:29, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
 * But someone on Wikipedia got shows like Rugrats and Hey Arnold specials as 2 or 3 half hours and counted them anyways. And what about you guys putting the episodes in its right season if it's not too much trouble? 2600:1702:1F0:3090:F1FE:651E:BC15:D2BF (talk) 20:52, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 28 July 2018
This entire article has claims that the series is now cancelled. Please remove any mention of it’s cancellation and remove the category on 2017 television shows that have ended 2600:1009:B01B:51F7:9589:CA6C:A59:A443 (talk) 21:32, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

There continues to be back-and-forth on marking the end date of the series
This article went into semiprotection because IPs were disputing that an end date was placed on the series. They changed the "last_aired" parameter in the infobox to "present", though some also removed the parameter or set the parameter to nothing. The instructions for that parameter in Template:Infobox television are as follows: The first air date of the show's last episode on its original network. Use "present" if the show is ongoing or renewed and End date if the show is ended. Only insert the last episode's date after it has happened. In some cases the fate of a program might be uncertain, for example if there are no announcements that a show has been renewed. If such a program has not aired a new episode in 12 months, "present" can be changed to the date the last episode aired, using End date. This does not imply the series has been cancelled, rather that the program "last aired" on that date. This is to prevent programs from being listed as "present" in perpetuity. When it was less than a year from the date of the last episode, IPs were changing "present" to the date of the last episode for that parameter, and after that one-year mark had passed, there continues to be edit-warring over the issue, even with auto-confirmeds and above. stated this in their edit summary just a little while ago: No credible source has confirmed that the series is cancelled as of now. The series is currently in limbo until Nickelodeon makes an official announcement. I reverted the edit, and then saw they didn't set the last_aired parameter to "present", but to nothing ... so I reverted my revert. Now, I quoted just the instructions from the template, but I am unaware of any other MOS:TV guideline governing this matter. MPFitz1968 (talk) 14:20, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
 * We treat it this way as for a lot of shows there may never be an official statement and things just stop. A year is more than enough time for someone to say something official if they cared to do so. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:48, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yep – the number of series that have been "revived" after more than one year of "no word" can pretty much be counted on the fingers of one hand... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:19, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
