What happened with the Final Episode?
July 2, 2008
Invader Zim is a dark, disturbing cartoon that looks like someone made it that was insane (but in a good way). The basis of the story is that an alien, Zim, from planet Irk is sent to a mysterious planet on what he thinks is a mission to conquer it. His leaders, The Almighty Tallest, only sent him away to be rid of him for a while. Zim and his robot servant, GIR, just so happen to land on Earth. Sadly, Zim is unequipped to handle the challenges that await him on Earth. To make matters worse for Zim, a child with a huge head named Dib sets out to stop Zim at all costs.
All of the episodes are full of laughs and ridiculous screaming. GIR is the funniest character due to his complete randomness and idiotic nature. Some episodes are more based on Dib or Gaz, Dib's Sister, than on Zim, but they are still very well done. This DVD set features episodes 19-27.
My only complaint with this Season is that the episode they used to close out the series, The Most Horrible X-mas Ever, was completely stupid. It introduced a new character named Mini-Moose for no reason at all. The episode itself isn't funny at all compared to other episodes in this box set. Invader Zim went out with a whimper and no closure whatsoever. I recommend Invader ZIM - Doom Doom Doom (Vol. 1) or Invader ZIM - Progressive Stupidity (Vol. 2) over the third season.
Good cartoon for teens or adults, could scare kids

This DVD of the Invader Zim series features a Halloween episode and a Christmas episode, and both of them may be detrimental to children's opinions of both holidays (not to mention Santa Claus). I do know, though, that my nine year old sister LOVES this cartoon.
Other than that, this cartoon is hilarious if you have slightly twisted sense of humor. It is my favorite cartoon, and Jhonen Vasquez's figures are extremely interesting and unique, so all of his work is worth at least checking out.
Oh, how I long for more ZIM!

The 3rd disc in the series doesn't disappoint, except for the fact that it's the end of the series. I couldn't get enough of this amazingly funny and creative cartoon (PS - I'm 35, and no - I don't still live in my parent's basement!). While it can be a bit hyper and loud from time to time, the real genius shows up in subtle things... underlying social commentaries and parodies, hilarious signage and background characters. Not to be missed!
How to ruin Christmas

When wholesome holiday fun goes terribly terribly wrong with another of Zims screwy plots for world domination! Packed with demented Christmas carols, loads of waffles and bogus fairy-tales of Santa Claus, fact or fiction? Along with some interesting additional characters along the way and as usual some great motivation from such supporting characters like Gir, Gaz, The tallest and so on. Zim a cosmically inept fool who just cant get enough of.

(just so u know this is written by ZIMgirl,MOOSE MASTER's cousin!)
season 3 is my favorite season,except the christmas episode makes me cry and it also makes MOOSE MASTER cry. the comentary is funny to listen to. I love it when GIR was in a turkey I laughed so hard.actually that whole episode was funny.my personal thoughts are ZIM eats waffles is the easist episode to understand,backseat drivers from beyond the stars is the funnist cuz it's stupid and dib ship rising is the most boring cuz it dosnt have alot of GIR. I want GIR!!
