Bye-Bye Ben.

Yes, it's true. "Ben 10," one of the better shows on Cartoon Network, ends its long run on November 14.

I've followed this show from day one, through all its iterations, and thought it was sci-fi adventure at its best. Even the TV movies were top notch. I'm sorry to see it go.

I concur: Ben 10 had a solid premise that allowed for Powerized Hero thwarts Nefarious Villain stories with much less danger of becoming pigeonholed as a character. I'm reminded of Hanna-Barbera's Space Ghost series, but with Space Ghost having only one or two functions available on his Power Bands. Limitations are a very necessary mechanism to make a hero sympathetic. I have a feeling that Ben will get another series somewhere down the line, or at least, a close derivative thereto. Hollywood doesn't let good ideas rest long on their laurels. :)
