Don't flame me or anything you angry people with sticks do. I love Naruto, but I love Xiaolin Showdown more, so this would be awesome xd I'd totally watch it.

Ya I didn't notice Chase Young at first either.

Xiaolin Showdown was on par with Avatar the Last Airbender, imo. Both great animated series that started in the U.S. I was disappointed with the ending though, it had a great build up to the climax and than they ended it... it was clearly cancelled. But for the show to have been done justice, it needed at least one more season, prlly 2.

I mean it was a relatively long show, if I remember right, and clearly the maker intended it to proceed past the leader being chosen. It was also similar to Avatar in the sense that it had a lot of character building 'filler' episodes. I wouldn't say that Avatar really had any fillers, but every season was 20 chapters and the climax was always at the end of the season... so in reality it did have fillers. Xiaolin Showdown was similar in that it had episodes that basically introduced 1 or 2 new artifacts (forget what they were called) and no real plot progression.

But either way, it was a fantastic show for all ages and it really did not get done justice due to being cancelled.

I agree completely. Avatar did have filler type, but it wasn't written with zero motivation. It helped build relationships, like you said and really impacted later episodes. It gives you attachments.


Xiaolin Showdown was amazing. Hilarious and has the one and only badass, Chase Young. It's unique.

Both were for all ages, and it's sad XS was canceled, but atleast it wasn't like Teen Titans in the sense it had an ending. Teen Titans, which I love as equally as these two ended with this massive cliffhanger. I hated that it ended without justice.


But yes, I agree 100%

Teen Titans was far worse of a cliffhanger than XS, if I remember right. Didn't the last episode involve BB seeing Terra but her having no memory? Ug... it made me feel like I was high not knowing what was going on.... it was terrible that it was cancelled at such a point.
