For those of you that may now know what Clone High was, Clone High was a television show that originally aired on Mtv on Monday nights as part of Mtv's "Ten Spot." Many enthusiasts of the show such as myself have debated why the show was canceled. At favorite website Imdb.com, Clone High currently has a score of 9.1 out of 10. Also, why has Mtv not released the show straight through a Dvd box set? Similar thoughprovoking shoes such as family Guy and Futurama had fresh life breathed into them because of high Dvd sales. There are any probable reasons why Clone High was canceled.
Reason # 1: Poor Ratings
This is by far the most safe bet reason. After only 10 episodes due to poor rating Mtv decided to pull the plug. Even though the season did not have the best ratings, the show was never given a fair chance. Many other shows had a rocky first season but the network gave them time to work things out. This was not the case with Clone High and it was perfect from episode one.

Reason # 2: Ghandi Scandal
In a 2002 edition of Maxim magazine, Mtv released an advertisement that had character Mahatma Gandhi in a way that offended many citizen in India. To make matters worse for the 55th celebration of Mahatma Gandhi's assassination, protesters in India specifically protested the Mtv show. Feeling the heat form this controversy, Mtv issued an apology. However, scandals like this are rarely good for a show and this scandal could have helped the shows demise.
Reason # 3: High Animation Costs
Going with surmise amount 1, Clone High probably just was not profitable enough. Many thoughprovoking cartoons can cost up to two million dollars and was not given sufficient time to fabricate a fan base to purchase linked products.
It is time for all fans of Clone High to take action. We must be active in Clone High linked websites and push for a box set.
