    Well, her show was in the teens anyways... Now Boots is gonna be beating his chest and killing that mexican squirrel for meat.
    Yay, aging process. And what the pork is with "Tweenage"?! Is it professional to have a speech impediment nowadays?

    someguyfromazoo is back!!! Amd this is simply idiotic.

    Viacom CEO: We're losing tweenage girl viewers to Disney! What do we do...?

    Lower Employee: How about we start a marketing campaign about how adults actually enjoy watching iCarly with their kids?

    CEO: That's stupid! We should take our preschooler liscence and make it tweeny! Quick! Before Sesame Street workshop makes a teenage gang version of Sesame Street!

    .... No, come on! They can't let Dora die? Her head is the size of a watermelon! It's even bigger then Arnold's, but seriously.. I always imagined Dora as a Teen, but... This is like world ending, what's Boots gonna look like? A giant brown haired gorilla who Dora is getting feelings for? We need to save the children before it's to late!

    Actually, it's going to be a doll series from Mattel, and according to the article, she will be working with four other girls (which you'll have to buy separately, no doubt) to solve mysteries about the environment, school, and wildlife. So basically, yes, Dora has to actually interact with other humans that she is not related to.

    I can't even imagine what they'll do to Swiper.
    "Swiper, no swiping!" "Gah, shut up, ya' crazy kids! Get offa mah lawn!"

    No, Swiper will become consumed with even darker thoughts, and become sniper. "Sniper, like, omigawd! Stop sni-!" PEW! "See ya in hell, kiddies!

    I've always wondered why Swiper just throws the item away after swiping it. And of course, Dora and Boots, having all the time in the world, get it in about two minutes. I'd like to see Swiper take some hostages. "Take one more step, monkey, or the girl gets it!"

    What's gonna happen to the lizar- Oh. Dora's purse, probably.

    Benny the Bull will probably have giant horns now, and he'll probably get ticked off at Boot's boots, and Swiper will possibly be a crotchy old man who doesn't want anyone on his Lawn, the lizard, will be Dora's handbag, and Boots will have super strength, eventually after this series ends, Dora and Boots will get married, everyone saw it coming.

    It isn't a TV series, per se. It's a doll series from Mattel. But I really hope she will get a new television series though.

    What?! Why did they make a cartoon drawings of her if isn't going to be a TV series? It would be something I'd watch, just because I wanna see how more retarded Dora can get.

    Ummmmmm....

    They actually think that *ahem* "tweenagers" are going to buy DORA THE EXPLORER????

    Mattel pitchman: "Next, let's market Caillou to Metallica fans!"

    These things are going to flop harder than the Power Glove.

    Just found this little piece of information:
    Nickelodeon has announced that it will develop its hit animated preschool series Dora the Explorer into a live-action, prime-time television movie. The TV movie will feature Dora as a ten-year-old live-action Latina heroine in an all-new adventure enhanced by CG special effects.

    From the Nickelodeon studios in New York, Brown Johnson, President of Animation says, “We are thrilled for our viewers to see their favorite Latina heroine come to life in a new, vibrant live-action world. Dora will be a little older for her high stakes live-action adventure, which we think will be very exciting for our pre-school audience, as well as kids and their families who have grown up watching the show over the last 7 years.”

    Alright, speculation time. Who else thinks there are going to be explosions in this?

    I already knew about that. Just slipped out of my mind. I guess there'll be gang bangers. She's in the city, I think.
    Maybe a couple of drive-bys. :p
