If that were ever to happen I'd stop watching the series.

heh, that picture actually popped up when I did an image search a month or two ago. Couldn't help but laugh when I saw it. I don't hate Cheese, but I certainly understand where the artist was coming from when they drew it. I'm irked at the S2 DVD cover, myself. I soooo preferred the original artwork of a nice framed picture of Mac and Bloo on the wall, and Cheese, looking "cute and innocent" (as opposed to crazy and going bazurk), holding his horsey up to the picture. Sooooo much better. Ugh, oh well. It's what's on the inside that counts, and I love every minute of it.

*No, make that every second.

What the-?

How did THAT replace the artwork I'd previously seen (and loved) for the season two DVD? Who was in charge of that?

Yeah, the sentiments of the linked artist does make some important points. I think Cheese works well BECAUSE he stands so in contrast with everyone else, which is why his usage should be kept to a minimum. Not written out altogether, but.....

I second that cognition. Although I don't exactly hate the troublesome yellow fellow, I will say this about him - he can be an amusing character, but only when his mindless ramblings actually convey some sense of innocence. There, we at least have some charm and humour in how his lesser senses play off against the self-awareness of the other characters - ultimately, he's best when used as a foil. For example, his insistence on decorating the vehicle with bunnies alongside the flames in "Mac Daddy", which did make me smile. The problem comes when he's allowed to run rampant doing and saying the most ridiculous and inane of things (which were all that his roles in "the Big Cheese" and "Cheese A-Go-Go" really amounted to), so all that we basically get are a bunch of equally mindless gags with no real substance to them.

And I agree with many of the issues that the "Cheese Show" artist raises - ultimately, Cheese just isn't nearly representative enough of the show as a whole to justify him becoming the CN poster kid he has done, let alone hog the entire Season 2 cover. Having Bloo dominate most of the artwork on the Season One cover was far more understandable, given that he is the main character, and features strongly in every episode. As the artist points out, Cheese was only in a single episode of Season 2. No matter, I guess, because whatever the cover, I'm still buying. I just hope I don't have the same problems getting my DVD-rom drive to recognise the discs as I did with Season 1.

Cheese is my favorite character. He's the most random character in the show, which is cool...

Pft, personally I think the artist of that above piece is making way too much of a deal over this matter. I mean regardless of whom is on the cover die hard fans of the series are going to buy the DVD no matter what, and having a very popular character amongst the target audience adorning the cover will make it highly visible to the younger set, and thus will more then likely find it's way into mommy and daddy's shopping cart. Which of course is a very very good thing.

Now if Cheese happens to find his was onto the cover of season three, you know the season where he appears in a grand total of zero episodes, then we can make a case.

I like how he calls those mice that gather around him at the end of ""Mac Daddy" doggies.

I doubt that's going to happen, Season 3 will most likely have Goo, if the iTunes art for Season 3 is any indication.

I trust y'all will understand if part of me feels like screaming.
