The fact people are recognizing Horvitz's voice for Moxxie first is so fucking bizarre, Invader Zim is THE Horvitz role, it's the thing that made Vivzie want him for Helluva Boss in the first place, Moxxie himself is just a modified version of Zim's character with the same general character design shape.

Yup, and it was unfortunately one of the main reasons why the show was cancelled, the budget was too big for Nickelodeon to justify paying for it. Then they started to broadcast Invader Zim at weird hours to slowly kill it off and get it cancelled. There were also some controversies here and there with the show because it was so dark, but the budget for it was the main reason it was discontinued.

@@xavierjuno4572 The problem with that is that Nickelodeon was being really ruthless to shows that were not pulling in the same numbers as SpongeBob was (SpongeBob was essentially Nickelodeon’s measuring stick for success). Invader Zim was very successful and popular, but when the views and ratings stopped reaching the threshold that Nickelodeon demanded of it, it got canned. Many other good shows suffered the same fate as well. So I fear that even if the budget hadn’t been particularly bloated with Invader Zim, it would’ve eventually died off anyway because it was nowhere near as watched as SpongeBob.

the darkness and weirdness of Invader Zim makes a lot more sense when you know that the creator was previously known for a comic series called Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, about a guy named Johnny (or Nny) who oscillates wildly between suicidal depression and homicidal rage at the drop of a hat. Extremely violent, gory, darkly humorous, and also very sad and even philosophical at times. It spoke to the hearts of a lot of angry, depressed teenagers. The hilarious part is that Nickelodeon really thought they could keep Jhonen Vasquez under control. He kept pushing the show darker and darker and they wouldn't let him do it, but he snuck quite a lot past them. There's a lot of off-screen deaths and mutilations, an instance of a single frame flash of gir covered in blood (sounds like a creepypasta, but it's real), and a child in an orange shirt named "Nick" being killed in retaliation for having to sanitize so much. Some of the bizarre non sequiturs (both visually and in dialogue) are basically red flags that a bit was cut and rewritten.

25:33 Fun Fact: That rabbit in the jar is special!!. It's a reference to the comic books of the shows creator (Jhonen Vasquez). It's name is "Filler Bunny" and he was created after his publisher decided to publish his first series compilation. In the books, there was a page for ads and those ads were taken out for the compilation which, in turn, left roughly 8 pages of blank space. Those spaces were "filled" by short stories involving that little pink rabbit. The stories were ALWAYS something horrific.

This is for sure one of my favorite shows ever. Such a hilarious contrast to most of the other shows nickelodeon aired in the early 2000s. The episode where zim steals everybodys organs was wild as hell. Or when zim makes a friend but the friend turns out to be too creepy and clingy so zim has his eyes removed and replaced with some kind of robotic eyes he made that allows him to issue orders to the boy. Dark shit, amazing show. I can't believe some of this made it onto a kids network but given the true nature of Disney, nickelodeon, and a decent portion of America's population, I can't say I'm surprised in the least bit.
