History Trivia / ClassOf3000

* ScrewedByTheLawyers: Somewhat subverted. The show was actually a very popular in it's heyday and pulling in some good ratings. But then the writer's strike hit and that stifled production before someone claimed that Andre had stole his idea for the series that he had failed to pitch to Cartoon Network and filed a lawsuit. While the case was thrown out because said person couldn't really provide proof that the idea was plagiarized from him. This, along with the whole bomb scare that came about to promote the then upcoming Aqua Teen movie, the then Cartoon Network president Jim Samples stepping down because of it, and financial issues pretty much dogpiled the series into cancellation. So really it was less layers and more "Screwed by bad PR and timing".
