It hasn't been said officially, but it is out there (and reliable) on
Twitter, and on Facebook: Nickelodeon is going to cancel the excellent
for preschoolers show "Ni Hao Kai-Lan" at the end of the season. They
are being sued for $10 Million by the girl who was let go as the voice
of Dora the Explorer and apparently Kai-Lan costs that much a season
to produce. So it sounds like they either think they'll lose the
lawsuit and need quick cash, or that they just want to dump Kai-Lan
and need an excuse. Why not cancel Dora? It's had it's run already,
and reruns would stay popular a long time right? Because there is far
more Dora merchandise already licensed and in production would be my
guess.

BUT, parents should call, write, email, tweet, Facebook post, holler
in the streets even to Nickelodeon demanding they keep Kai-Lan in
production. It is an exceptionally good show for 2-7 year olds, and we
need all the good (worthwhile) kids shows we can get these days -
especially with all the garbage shows out there (many on Nickelodeon
even).
