Is the mainstream ben 10 dead

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

@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.

Nope just a omiverse squeal and the reboot to canceled

Omniverse already ended back in 2014...

npzman

why did CN aired the rest off the omniverse eps in 2014 everyday
when it could of lasted until 2016

Are they trying to get rid of it

Tactical Ochoa

@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

A lot of people were watching the remaining ben 10 OV eps and they do reruns

Rexfan1333

@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.

npzman

Do they have ads for it in the US and is the up to speed mobile app available there

Rexfan1333

@npzman It's available now.

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