Ghandi achieves a lot in this show, just not in the way you would expect. He becomes a international rap sensation after rapping "G Spot rock the G spot, G spot rock the G spot / What's my name? G SPOT!" over G-Funk beats. He Develops TWO addictions to an energy drink that goes by the name of "X-Stream Blu" and -errr- smoking raisins, the latter resulting in a trip through his sub conscience with a hummingbird-unicorn-donkey creature. He's diagnosed with ADD. He becomes a trucker, kidnaps a mascot, it goes on and on. **G Spot Rocks The G Spot.** Damn that song is catchy. None of his adventures are what you would expect, however, there is no hunger strikes, no talks of peace, no Indian accent in earshot. That is what makes Clone High so difficult to pin down. All of the characters are amusing genetic copies of historical figures yes. There are references to their originals, such as Joan of Arc hearing voices & JFK proclaiming "nothing ever bad happens to the Kennedy!" granted. But most of the story lines are explorations of of the typical "teen issues" and the type of pop-references people made in 2003, all be it a little on the far out side. It feel almost as if one of the creators had taken a hit from his blunt during a writing session. Looked at the love triangle between Brandi, Whitney & George. Taken another hit. Looked up to Stereotypical High's co-creator and said "Hey man, wouldn't it be a trip mannn if Brandi was like Cleopatra & Whitney was ermm Joan of Arc ... yeah man and George could be Abe Lincoln ... yeah, yeah. A love triangle between Jone of Arc, Cleopatra and Abe Lincoln ... that would be farrr OUT!" That's not such a bad thing, but the clones are so far removed from their originals that it is takes a few episodes to adjust to & difficult to sum up to your friends in a couple of sentences and as these shows generally gain popularity though word of mouth, that was probably part of the reason it faded away after 12 episodes. Only to gain cult status over 10 years after it's original run. By which I am not surprised, this should be a much watch series for any cartoon fan out there, I will be telling my friends that "Clone High is a show about some high school kids who get into some crazy situations, go on wild adventures & just so happen to be clones of historical figures, like Ghandi & Dolly The Sheep, it also has pretty good underground alt-rock sound track and is defiantly ready for a revamp!" 7/10
