The show could have no viewership but high toy, game, and dvd sales could convince he network to continue it. Personally I am not looking forward to the reboot as I don't think the same guys are working on it so it might turn into spongebob and the voice actors aren't returning. Actually, Tom Kenny, Jennifer Hale and Roger L. Jackson are returning. Though you're probably talking about the main trio's voice actors. I've heard the new voices and honestly, they're not bad. Blossom sounds very close to the original. Buttercup, while you can tell has a different voice, still has that tomboy attitude. And Bubbles sounds a tad bit older than her original voice, but she still sounds alright to me. See it's the fact that they didn't ask the original voice actress trio to return that puts me off. If they were reimagining the show completely, I could understand, but everything they've shown us indicates that it's just recycling elements from the original show, so the exclusion of the original stars just seems arbitrary and pointless. I see you're point. I do find it odd that they brought back the supporting voice actors and not the main trio's. Despite that though, I'm still gonna give this show a chance. Who knows? Maybe there's more to this show than what they've shown us so far. Maybe there will be new plot elements not seen in the original show. Well, Tom Kenny is in everything. I'd serously hate to be the guy who reads his resume. Apparently they didn't even ask the original voice talents to be in the show, they just cast new talents. It'd probably be a lot cheaper hiring new talents because the original voice actors are pretty huge in the world of voice acting, and regular acting I think, I don't really know. They're like Tom Kenny and appear basically everywhere, so they probably demand a higher pay rate. It's like their decision to animate the show with what looks like a flash clone. It's cheapining the show as a whole so that they can pour all the money into advertising.
