Even though its a cartoon,I like to say this is one of my favorite tv shows right now.It sadly isn't on alot anymore,but its very cool in my mind. I didn't know if anyone would like it,or reply to this,but thats the chance you take. Here is some information on the show: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Dragon:_Jake_Long

I used to watch that show. I liked it as well. The story got better on the second season but I preferred the first season art style better. Especially Jake's dragon form.

I know,the art was kindof...sucky on the second season,they made Jake VERY skinny for a dragon,unlike the first season where it fit him just right.

"Skinny for a dragon" is kind of hard to define, seeing as they're mythical. Anyway, he wasn't skinny for an Eastern dragon, which is the influence they were going for there. I thought it suited him better than the superhero physique; I liked that part of his second season design, but I didn't like what they did to his face and hair. XD I'm kind of ambivalent about the other style differences between the seasons. They have their good and bad points and neither one is really my favorite art style in general, but they both work pretty well. I was very excited about the series when it began and I watched the premier, but I'm not very good about remembering when a show is on and I didn't have DVR at the time, so I wound up missing a lot of the first season. Then I went to Russia and missed the entire second season. :\ I try to catch it when it's on, but I'd like to see all of the episodes, as I missed out on most of the plot. In Russia I started buying the episodes on iTunes, but stopped when one of them was mixed up with an episode of The Replacements (ironically). I don't know if they ever fixed the problem, but I tried to download that episode two or three times and it was still the wrong show. I wish they'd release these shows on DVD already. -.- Anyway, I love the concept and I quite liked what I saw of the show. It wasn't always great, but it was fun. I think my favorite characters were Spud and Fu Dog; those two had some great lines. (Jake himself got a lot funnier for me once I got into Avatar. XD) Sometimes, after watching a few episodes, I'll find myself involuntarily saying, "Aww, maaan!" XD

I know what you mean,Jake looed SOOO wrong in the second season it was barely unwatchable.That and I figured there would be more centaurs then what they showed.

As a a dragon lover, it became my favorite show of them all. It's too bad it had to get cancel after a two year run. It took me some time to accept the changes they did from the second season, but I agree with Kenichi. The art style in the first season look better.

Yeah I really enjoyed this show before it got cancelled which I felt was a HUGE mistake by Disney.The story of the whole show just seemed to click right into place and it was a fun show to enjoy,even my parents liked it and was disappointed when it got taken off the air.
Heck even the theme songs for both seasons was awesome and I never felt there was a single bad episode during both seasons.

yeah american dragon was an awesome show, there's a rumor that was floating around that disney was thinking of bringing it back for a 3rd season, but it has yet to be confirmed. Although it's highly possible because many shows are making a comeback for instance Xiaolin showdown is getting a new season Xiaolin chronicles that's going to premiere on cartoon network soon, and many more shows are presumed to be brought back aswell.

It would really be neat to see if it ever does come back. I am just worried to see how they make Jake look after the horrible appearance of Season 2.
