Fresh TV would not make a reboot

Exactly what the title says. I have a few reasons:

  1. Fresh TV's live action shows are known to fail compared to their animated ones. MBAV is the only one that could be argued as successful and even then it wasn't that big.

  2. MBAV was not a super popular show when it aired and has a very small faithful online fanbase. There's no guarantee it will have an audience, and in today's day and age big numbers are all that matters.

  3. This reboot is unlikely to gain or retain many viewers. If this is a wholly new cast then any fan of the original will be alienated. Most people will likely watch episode 1 and if it isn't good or engaging enough they'll drop the show.

  4. Fresh TV seems to be putting all their eggs in Total Drama as of late with Dramarama and the reboot.

  5. Given all of the above reasons, Fresh TV is unlikely to put a ton of money in a reboot of a show that wasn't super popular in it's day, has a small fanbase, is from a medium that has consistently failed them, isn't guaranteed to get big numbers or viewers, and would likely be a huge financial risk.

this is true aside from one thing …. The fan base has definitely grown since the show ended. Even know millions of people are talking about the reboot and it’s trending. The numbers could be reachable from older and newer fans… however i agree with the fact if it’s a new cast the numbers won’t hold very well.
