At Toonzone, I posted a retrospective on The 7D! It’s a long post, so under the jump here’s my thoughts:

Today marks a day since the finale of The 7D first premiered in the United States. The production of the show was overseen by Tom Ruegger, and he brought along many of the staff who worked with him on past Warner Bros. and Hanna-Barbera series. The 7D took place years before the time of Snow White, with its own separate universe, and it paid homages to the 1937 Disney film, as well as some Disney and pop culture references. Even with all the talent involved and an all-star cast of veteran voice actors plus Kelly Osbourne (Hildy) and Leigh-Allyn Baker (Queen Delightful), this lighthearted and funny series is still very underappreciated. When The 7D was first announced for Disney Junior (later moved to Disney XD) in 2012, even with Ruegger being named as the executive producer, there were negativity and attacks towards the show and its staff, especially with you-know-who of Cartoon Brew. However, when the show debuted in July 2014, it became a ratings hit on Disney XD, making it at the time the No. 2 premiere in the network's history. Its official tie-in gaming app was downloaded more than a million times, enough for it to become No. 1. Then, the much anticipated Star vs. the Forces of Evil debuted months later, which eclipsed The 7D. SvtFoE became Disney XD's darling, and suddenly the writing's on the wall for The 7D over the next year. A schedule change on the last several episodes of the first season on January 2015 forced the season finale, "The Rock of Sages", off Disney XD as it was announced that there were some animation problems. Despite that, a few scenes from the episode was featured on that month's promo for the series, though one of the clips was revealed to be a deleted scene. Meanwhile, DXD in the U.S. continued to sat on the episode for several months while other Disney channels around the world had access to the season finale. "The Rock of Sages" finally premiered on the U.S. on September 2015, then many more months had been passed until the second season premiered on January 2016. At that time, The 7D was placed in a Saturday morning time slot at 9:30; DXD promoted the second season premiere and a few subsequent episodes well, which got strong ratings. After then, DXD had mostly stopped promoting the series, causing the ratings to drop sharply. The network also began the reduction of reruns; by the last months of the series' original run, its Saturday morning time slot became the only time one can watch the show on TV. New episodes and reruns aired on that lone time slot, and it was frequently preempted by random marathons or other special events. (It led many fans to forget that The 7D was still airing.) Further complicating matters was the series' cancellation by Disney before the start of Season 2 around New Year's but hadn't made public until the following April, cutting the number of episodes intended for the second season from 39 to 20. The 7D had proved to be a decent sized hit, but in my opinion it got lost in the shuffle as the ever-increasing popularity of story-driven shows like Gravity Falls and the aforementioned SvtFoE, in addition to DXD's over-attention towards them and a few others. Tastes were changed -- drama and angst are in, silliness is out. It came at a wrong time. Plus, the show wasn't a good fit for DXD: the show's brand of silly comedy and lightheartedness doesn't quite mix well with the network's other programming. Even though Disney encouraged The 7D's producers to aim for all ages, it instead ended up on a network that gears towards boys. Outside the U.S., the show is/was regularly shown on a Disney Channel or Disney Junior in some countries (in the U.K. and Ireland, The 7D was moved from DXD to Disney Channel earlier this year). The circumstances surrounding The 7D's abrupt cancellation remains a mystery. Wander Over Yonder's Craig McCracken, Gravity Falls' Alex Hirsch, and Penn Zero: Part Time Hero's Sam Levine had announced why their series ended and told their fans what they had in store had the series been continued. Over a year has passed, and none of The 7D's staff revealed why the series had ended so soon. Me and my friends speculated that there were some behind-the-scenes stuff going on between corporate and the show's staff, or Disney for some reason forced them into a NDA. Despite whatever troubles the show had, I'm glad I got to enjoy it. The 7D was the one reason I made many friends online over it. It has a lot of great songs that it was criminal not to release a soundtrack as Disney had done for other shows (Parry Gripp once mentioned that they were in talks to release one for The 7D)! The 7D makes you feel better when you had a bad day, and it deserves another chance. Sorry for the long post, I'm just passionate about this show! So...what are your thoughts on or memories of The 7D?

Any lasting injuries from combat? The only lasting injury Neeka has is a large gash that has since healed into a fading scar under her bellybutton. One look at it and it’s easy to tell that it was a cut meant to gut a person, luckily for her someone was watching her back and found her before she bled out.

2018--SEPT-14th-2018-Friday mid morning---THIS HELLHOLE OF WHITE & ABO CRIMS AND CRIME & HELL.

Dear Fliss, please know that poor Sam and poor Max and poor me are all suffering without being with YOU.

Anyone reading this and my blog does NOT KNOW the hell here and what it is.

Currently the ONLY thing missing is the streams of constant Police sirens tearing about......though they HAVE been all around this area....

So.....you dear Reader think just because the VERY criminal aboriginals have been lawfully evicted and thrown out of the houses...YOU think that crime and shit has gone down here and all about have you?

YOU'RE WRONG

AND...EXACTLY AS I WROTE IN MY BLOG FOR YEARS.....the 'season' of crime and criminality has temporarily shifted from the VERY CRIMINAL AND VICIOUS aboriginals to the the VERY CRIMINAL AND VICIOUS white ones......

As was happening last night......

And is even now the criminal effects are being seen in the media such as below....

WA NEWS:------ Police charge man over Malaga BMW chase crash

September 14, 2018 9:58AM

https://www.perthnow.com.au/news/crime/police-charge-man-over-malaga-bmw-chase-crash-ng-b88960402z

And there's a NEWS report video of the resultant scene. It's a pity the shithead trying to escape Police wasn't killed because they surely deserve it.....oh, and they were escaping Police in a BMW vehicle....not an 'ordinary car'..and they crashed into a blackboy,.....mustv'e been one strong blackboy (they can be) but then again in criminal incidents SO MANY TREES have been crashed into and have survived (barely).

I expect now the local sales of BMW's will now rise as shitheads think they're safer and more capable if you're a criminal chased by Police....

The shitty NEWS treats it all and simply focuses on the car being torn in two...and that the occupants (criminals) survived......

And as for the criminals now being in a city hospital.....THAT just makes things hell for hospital and it's staff AND all other patients.....I KNOW because such a thing happened to me when I was in hospital for an injury and swarms of 'certain people' took over the hospital ward I was in and plenty of uniformed Police were called in and we innocent patients all were hurriedly evacuated far away into another hospital ward elsewhere and the ward was sealed off........because of the 'certain people' having taken it over and before the Police incident had been attracting more and more and more......as if it was a fucking free hotel with free meals and free entertainment and free everything....

At first the hospital idiotically tried accomodating all these shits as if it was all a fucking HOTEL! - The fuckers took over patients beds, ordered AND ALSO STOLE meals from the hospital rounds.....patients meals were 'vanishing' whilst patients were in other hospital areas..and then we innocent patients kept getting blamed whenever we dared to ask for our meals....and it all made hell for everyone.......

AND YOU DID NOT READ ABOUT THAT IN ANY NEWS....NOR WILL YOU.....

The hospital corridors were FULL of Police......a riot ensued more than once culminating in we poor patients being transported out to other wards on and in our hospital beds and the entire ward being emptied out......

Oh, and the ones respsonsible were the usual untouchable criminals that everyone tries to ignore and accomodate and do everthing for despite them never taking no for an answer and worse than rabid foetid rats......

In a hospital......

A hospital....that's supposed to be caring for the infirm.....but the criminals NEVER care about anything but themselves.......

------------------------------------------------------

Today this mid morning I was ONCE AGAIN accosted by fake friendly begging shits.......

As I was going there to get a simple small loaf of plain bread from out of the small change of mine I had scraped together because I'm so poor.

But even as I was walking to go past them I stated clearly and simply, "I'M NOT INTERESTED. AND I'VE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE. YOU'RE GETTING NOTHING OUT OF ME."

And before I'd even reached the door they STILL launched into badgering me to wear me down to just give them swathes of money so they could just walk around the corner and go into the booze shop......or buy cigarettes....or others stuff to have with the booze....

THIS IS NOT NEW OR UNUSUAL SHIT...IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS AT THIS HELLHOLE......

(And the booze shop has also been the scene of countless crime and criminals and Police.)

And soon enough the streets have emptied stinking bottles smashed on them, on the footpaths, thrown into or smashed into peoples yards., fighting in the streets, criminal thefts out of peoples vehicles, thefts of peoples vehicles........

And also they'd get soft drink bottles but were actually filled by them full of hard booze so they could wander all about the streets forever drunk and violent and criminal. - If any Police vehciel was seen nearby, they'd just drop the bottle and come back to it (maybe, IF they could rememeber), and there was SO MANY MANY bottles left all over the place andor hidden in innocent residents gardens which was handy for them when they would rob them too. -- ALL THIS WAS/IS NOT JUST CONFINED TO ADULTS BUT CRIMINAL 'CHILDREN' TOO.

And all this FOR YEARS WAS ALSO BEING DONE BY THE VERY VERY CRIMINAL 'CHILDREN 'OF THEM TOO......AND ESCALATING.......(there's temporarily a 'lull' period of those VERY CRIMINAL AND VERY VERY VIOLENT CHILDREN shits...)

And ANY and EVERYONE I told anywhere else they totally REFUSED to believe any of this was happening or had hapened or could happen again and again and again......

And because THEY could not accept such shit was actually going on...THEY BLAMED ME.....OR THOUGHT ME 'MISTAKEN' or such, despite countless Police incidents......all of which YOU never read in any damned 'informative' NEWS....

And 'anonymous Watchers' roamed the streets (AND STILL DO AGAIN) watching and noting down on electronic devices things they oberved as they slowly walked around (or slowly drove around) sticking to set regular permanent routes and timetables which the criminals learned of them and avoided them like clockwork...the criminal shits.

So I fucking well just STOPPED doing ANYTHNG for ANYONE.....NOBODY cares and nobody does anything, least of all with the situation with dear Fliss and myself being terribly parted.......of which I WAS BLAMED FOR TOO despite myself being totally innocent and dear Fliss being totally innocent.....

But no.....fucking dickheads still keep thinking it's ME....only because THEY can intelligently talk to me....since they refuse to try to even get near any stinkin' booze addled andor illegal drugged-up crazy insane violent guilty criminal others who could attack them at any moment AND the criminals get away with doing such.....

---------------------------------------------

Another day in this hellhole.

And that's NOT even telling you here about other shit that has been going on.......no, fuck you....you're SO SMART...then YOU try try to figure out what criminal shit and other shit has been going on Sherlock...but YOU won't.....YOU just want information served up to you like custard so you can accept it since you REFUSE to want my life being any better in this hellhole and for dear Fliss and I to be together again. - Fuck you.

Poor Sam and poor Max have AGAIN been harangued by shit of his hellhole and it woke me and us despite us all just being asleep and having got to sleep after the LAST LOT of shit going on at this fucking hellhole......

And this morning I've seen that somebody has previously tried to break-in AGAIN.

THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR FUCKING YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS.

FUCK YOU. I'M NOT TELLING YOU EVERYTHING.

FUCK YOU. I'M NOT TELLING YOU ANYYTHING.

It's pointless me even trying to say anything. That is why I have long since stopped. And then people wonder why I'm so 'silent' and don't talk to them and keep to myself yet I'm a very decent person, a very kind person,...a person slammed and imprisoned into this fucking hell......

--------------------------------------------------

Let's just fucking well see what OTHER shit plays out in the NEWS shall we?

--------------------------------------------------

There once was a 'season' for terrible shit...now it's at ANY time and ALL the time......

--------------------------------------------------

I still have not won Lotto or anything, just as has been the case all my life despite trying.

--------------------------------------------------

I love you dear Fliss and want to be with you. Dear Sam and dear Max want to be with you and us.

--------------------------------------------------

Oh, and of course to top things off again.... shitty Tumblr is now fucking me around....
