- Which Pile of Crap in particular do you mean?

Some potential answers:

- Nami's bust is too large?
- Robin is too old for a heroine in a "cartoon"?
- Sanji cooks "foreign" food?
- Zoro's hair is green?
- Chopper blushes and acts "girly"?
- Luffy's mouth and teeth frighten Small Children and TV Executives?
- Franky's ass is too hairy?
- Usopp's nose is too long?
- All of the above?

I'm thinking it got replaced with Bakugan -
which is a shounen fight-by-proxy show.

From what I heard, Bakugan got replaced with Blue Dragon.
I also noticed that the Friday night Adult Swim anime lineup
got replaced with their own programming last night.
Can't even throw their anime watchers a bone, huh?

I skipped that one when it first came out last year. Was it as bad as it
looked like it would be?

It was OK but nothing special,the English dubbed version is good and
is also on Teletoon in Canada.

AFAIK, Toonami just aired all the new One Piece they have.
What's interesting is it's not given at least 1 rerun.

One Piece with Bakugan,
a Toriyama Dragon (Ball Z) for a Toriyama (Blue) Dragon.

Maybe anime watchers aren't living up to their side of the Neilsen.
Those anime aren't really built for reruns, except maybe Shin-chan.

Laters. =)

Actually it means that not enough Neilsen raters are anime watchers.

Technically speaking, of course.

Cap.

Well, that's how it's supposed to work, doesn't it?
Neilsens are supposed to cover the broad demographic,
not aim for specific groups. ^_^

I mean, if only 1% of the population watches anime on ad TV,
then among Neilsen raters, anime watchers should also be 1%.
It shouldn't be 10% just because they're anime watchers.
