"No. of episodes: 108": Due to this I had a little email exchange with Micah Wright, where he contradicted: there are only 62 episodes, plus A Tail of Two Rangers/Bye Bye Beavers, giving a total of 63 produced episodes. -- m.

[edit] DVD
I've removed the comment that said the show will probabally never come to DVD because of the controversies. Being controversial has never been a reason to stop films & TV series being released on DVD before. The only reason this wouldn't come out is because Nick only seem to release their big money spinners (Spongebob, Rugrats etc...), their cult shows never seeing the light of day.
Its a good thing you did, because it has technically been released on DVD, see the bottom of the page. Im not sure if its a bootleg or not.--Ecwnet 04:58, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
Well, Invader Zim has acheived cult status, and they released the entire series on DVD...
[edit] NPOV
The final straw was an un-aired episode titled Bye Bye Beavers, which was going to be the show's last episode, involving Norb having to convince Dag that they're just characters on a TV show, thereby indicating a destruction of the fourth wall. Staffer Micah Wright said that Nickelodeon hated this episode, as it made fun of the station's practice of not making new episodes of their Nicktoons, preferring to air reruns instead. It is unclear if it was even part of foreign syndication. Also, the episode had broken Nick's "code on Nicktoons": When you're going off the air, don't tell your viewers! However, Doug did get a series finale.
This part suggests a non-NPOV by the author of the article.

- I've found that often history is looked back upon with a factual opinion. Nazis were bad, the Allies were good; the Romans were great, the Germans no more than barbarians. Some are correct, such as the former. Some, like the latter, are far more debatable. But judging from the fact that the paragraph does not misrepresent Nickelodeon's policy, I would say that it is not an unfair assessment, save the last two lines. I am removing them from the main article --The reverend 08:52, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

- Actually, disney finished the series of doug for them, they only stoped it when they were on hiatus like most of there other cartoons as you can see, rockos modern life legend of the hidden temple amd others didn't really have a divine ending

[edit] Debut
I could've sworn the series began before 1997. I seem to recall watching it before Hey Arnold and Catdog debuted. 67.188.172.165 17:03, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Response: Hey Arnold came out in 1996, CatDog came out in 1998.
[edit] Address
The beavers address is listed as "RTE 4 BOX 413". Coincidentally the national broadcaster for Ireland is known as RTE with stations RTE 1 and RTE 2 although there is no RTE 4. There is nothing to suggest this is anything more than a coincidental acronym but I make a note of it here anyway in case there is anything more than a coincidenc or any kind of interesting explanation of the address.

[edit] A source that could be used: Jerry Beck's Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons!
I found a book in the bookstore called Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons! by Jerry Beck. I'm not going to buy it and join the project, but I will ask the other members to get the book so that they can add real world information about various fictional characters.
This makes the creation of separate articles for *many* fictional characters feasible. Having information about the development of the character will make the articles satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) WhisperToMe (talk) 20:50, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Editing "The Angry Beavers"
I plan to copyedit this article simply out of pure interest. I loved this show when I was younger and now that I'm an editing student in college, I thought this would be a good place to practice. I'll mainly be looking for errors in spelling, punctuation, grammar, etc.Erinrebeccalong (talk) 18:31, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
