Other fans didn't like it as much, thinking that the art change was either too much or just unnecessary and preferred the original look.

* VindicatedByHistory: When it was still running, ''[=ChalkZone=]'' was despised by a lot of older Nickelodeon fans. The reasons varied, but most of them boiled down to the above misblaming of the show being accused of getting ''Zim'' canceled, the show overall being too "tame" compared to the more "edgier" Nicktoons at the time (which were, and still are, rife with NightmareFuel, GettingCrapPastTheRadar, and [[GrossOutShow gross-out humor]]- not that ''[=ChalkZone=]'' didn't have moments like these, but they weren't a big part of the show) like ''[=SpongeBob=]'', and (inevitably) the original target audience for Nick in the early '90s growing out of the network and claiming that [[NostalgiaFilter it just wasn't as good as the old shows]]. These days, you will find much more fans than haters.
