Okay, in LSTN Jimmy and Cindy kiss. BUT WHY? I mean nothing really significant happened to their relationship in that episode. It was just out of the blue. I wouldn't really take away the kiss, but I'd make the ep longer and more "J/C" to it so the kiss wouldn't seem out of place.

Agreed.

I always wondered that as well. I know the writers totally just wanted to throw it in after finding out "this was the end", but yeah...I sort of wish their first kiss scene had made a little more sense.

Yeah...it would have been much nicer if there had been a reason for it...I mean the kiss was awesome (that it happened :wub: ) but so random, it nearly falls out the picture ^_^

YES! I'm not very satisfied with the way they randomly threw that in, either. After all the problems Jimmy and Cindy have had with their relationship, it didn't feel right that something as big as their first kiss should happen so...suddenly. It's kind of out of character for them, even. I need a turning point in there somewhere...something big that happened to make them change. I mean, throughout the episode you get this feeling that their relationship has undergone this huge change, and you're left their mystified as to the cause. And they can't tell us it's just because of what happened in KoM! :rolleyes:

Exactly!!! And I mean, it was just such a HUGE change in no time...I mean LSTN comes together with How to Sink a Sub....there was everything randomly funny, one wouldn't suspect a thing and then the next second...LSTN ....suddenly they're quite open about it, and out of the blue the kiss :wacko:

It even would have been weird if it came directly after KoM, but at least this would have been a BIT more understandable...

:onfire: I burn with you.

The whole series they let us wait and worry whether these two get together or not...building the tension up...and then spat in our faces.
That's such a weird ending for a change that needed so long to blossom...

:rolleyes: ´But I guess that's what fanfiction is for...

JNrocks, you have a point here. I agree with you guys. Nick usually treats fans like that.

Okay...there's something I'd seriously change...I dunno whether anyone mentioned it in another topic, but I'm just postin here.

One thing that bugs me is the plot of 'King of Mars'.

Don't get me wrong, I love the episode for all the J/C ness...but that's pretty much it. The plot actually is kinda...not exciting. Especially at the end. I think one could have made so much more of the situation, Eustace is forced to help Jimmy for the 'greater good'. The martians were allergic to water...wow really great. There could have been more tension I guess, between Jimmy and Eustace , who both are to blame for the Martians anger and have to set things right. A bit more...action I guess.

I still love KoM with all my heart, but I'd really change the main plot. ^_^

Lets say, the episode is good because of J/Cness. There are no much besides of it. Sure, I'd love to see more action and plot in JN too. too bad we don't have the fourth season on TV.

Yeah well, I was just referring to this one episode. Not actionlessness in general in JN :blink: I'd just change it that's all. ^_^

Yeah, there is NO plot to KoM except to further J/C. Liked it for that but I also like a bit of story too, sheesh...

I do agree with KoM. I love the J/C with all of my heart, but the plot is just kind of bland. -_-

And LSTN - It seems to me like they knew it was the last episode, and were just desperate to cram in the ending for J/C. Kind of like Phantom Planet of Danny Phantom. It's just confusing. :wacko:

Dude, how'd I never know this topic even existed?! I mean, seriously! There are quite a few things I'd change, though I'll start with these two... :popcorn:

First of all, the character Butch. I mean, I realize he's the bully with anger issues, but that's all we get of him. Why does he have those anger issues, and how'd he come to be the bully in Jimmy's class? I think there should've been more time spent on him as a character, if not a whole ep focused on him... What's his home life like, and why don't we ever see his eyes? So many unanswered questions about him, jumpin' Jupiter... :blink2:

Secondly, the ep Safety First. I mean, as a whole, it's an alright ep, but what I would've changed about it is actually having Hugh and Judy realize their son was being bullied, not picked on cuz a kid had a crush on him. Plus, it would've helped if Jimmy had specified that Terry was a male; maybe then they would've realized the situation was more serious and maybe went to Jimmy's school to have a serious talk with Miss Fowl or Principal Willoughby... Knowing those two, though, they might not have helped the situation very much, thus leading to Jimmy still creating the nanobots and Hugh and Judy advising him to be careful with them, and maybe Judy would've helped out her son if things got outta hand with the nanobots... But those are just my thoughts on it... ^^; I might post more about something else here at some point. ^_^

I would change how cruel some of the other characters treat Jimmy in some of the eps (ex. N-Men, Eggpire Strikes Back, also the end of A Beautiful Mine-why did they all get mad at Jimmy at the end? They were forced to use their rubies as fuel to not die...smh). I questioned the writers' choices in some of these eps.

 

Also, I wish they showed more of Sheen's and Libby's home life/family. Like mentioned what happened to Sheen' mom, what his grandma looks like, etc. I really loved El Magnifico because it showed how much Mr. Estevez cares about Sheen. We barely see Libby's parents and know that she has a brother, but it would be cool if the show had more of Libby in general.

 

I also wish that the characters clothes changed sometimes especially when they are in cold weather, space, etc. It always made me feel cold seeing the gang in the snow and in space w/o jackets on.

 

Well, I might add more later. That's all I can think of for now.

I was so confused by that! Also in When Pants Attack he mentions his mom but we never see her, and according to the writers, Sheen's mom died when he was younger. Man, they really didn't think Sheen's family life through!
