    @npzman I don't buy the toys either, but I don't buy them to make Ben 10 fail, but Cartoon Network wants to profit off of the franchise which sickenss me and wish Ben 10 would be bought by a different network. I want to see Ben 10 be something to be respected again and not seen as a abomination by people.

    With me I just think another channel should get the rights to Ben 10 that is probably the only way to save the series also I think they should get rid of the gwevin pairing and forgot alien force and the other series and start off right after good bye and good riddance and have the main pairing be bwen

    I'm shocked we got this many reboots in a row. Maybe its time to let Ben 10 rested fora few years before the next reboot.

    This is the first reboot. The other shows were sequals.

    @Oldtaku_dd They are sequels not reboots, they weren't perfect, but they had the right idea in giving the series a story, this the first reboot, I'm okay with this new show, but I would've preferred Ben Tennyson as a teenager and Studio Trigger doing the animation and story, they need to do Ben 10 as a superhero, action, comedy, drama with elements of the original series and sequels.

    @npzman even though I think a petition for a new Ben 10 series to be animated by Studio Trigger would be better, but I've heard they don't really work.

    @npzman Petitions don't really work so you shouldn't bother with making one...or making any at all.

    @npzman Well sorry, but not going to happen and a petition is pretty much worthless.

    @npzman Yes. Cartoon Network only cared about profiting off of toys and other merchandise, which was why many good shows, Sym-Bionic Titan, for example, were cancelled because they weren't selling enough toys. It's also the biggest reason as to why the Powerpuff Girls reboot and the Ben 10 reboot were even made in the first place. The original PPG and the original Ben 10 sold a whole lot of toys and merchandise. So much that they were two of Cartoon Network's most financially successful shows.

    In regards to Omniverse, the show was barely selling any toys. In fact, Ben 10 toys and merchandise sales had been very poor since Ben 10 Ultimate Alien, which makes it even more questioning as to why Cartoon Network thinks they can pull off selling more toys and merchandise with the Ben 10 reboot if Ultimate Alien and Omniverse did so poorly in toy and merchandise sales. It didn't help either that Omniverse received negative backlash from much of the Ben 10 fanbase as well as also having low viewer ratings. Cartoon Network said that Omniverse was successful but basically it really wasn't because of what I just explained. Therefore, with very poor sales in merchandise and low viewer ratings, Cartoon Network decided to do what they did to many of their other shows that didn't sell toys well enough and they rushed out the remaining episodes of Omniverse and then cancelled it.

    So yes, Cartoon Network was trying to get rid of Ben 10 Omniverse and what I explained here is the reason why.

    @Tactical-Ochoa and that is the reason they should lose the rights to the franchise, they will obviously never learn their lesson because they think kids these days are attracted to nothing but mindless comedies and simple designs with less detail. Reason why Ben 10 needs the Studio Trigger treatment.

    @npzman last time I've checked, they haven't reruned the series at all, they pretty much started showing commercials for the Up To Speed mobile game.

    People had to ruin Ben 10 omniverse and the proposed sequal because they were not buying the toys

    @Ebomnitrix Dwayne McDuffie didn't create Ben 10. The Man of Action team did, McDuffie had a very different vision for Ben 10 and retconned a lot of things for AF/UA that Man of Action had previously established in OS. I absolutely love Dwayne's work on Statick Shock and Justice League Unlimited (JLU is my favorite cartoon ever actually), but as other people here have said, I would have preferred a Ben 10 sequel by the hands of the original creators. My answer to the question: I think there is a reason why the OS is the most popular series, and that reason is because from AF onwards a big part of the audience lost interest (I'm not talking about the hardcore fans here, I'm talking about casual friends that I know that stopped watching Ben 10 after the OS). AF storylines were amazing, but the new aliens were not as interesting as the Original Series' ones (with a few exceptions), there were a lot of retcons, and especially, the writers were in love with Kevin and made him the main star of the show, stealing the spotlight from Ben sometimes, and it didn't work out.

    Wow, I had read up on how the game is really glitchy and filled with technical issues. It's been pissing some people off.
