Casefiles suck. I don't need to fake-quote or anything. They suck. That's it. Final Answer. Suck.

You know, I can't even read what that says. So I'll just ignore that, whatever it was.

Funny, since you are the one that wrote it and started it.

It says "Undercover Brothers Suck". And JoeHardyRocks, calling someone else what you distinctly are yourself is kinda weird ;) Plus, it's not really an insult because it's just calling it as you see it...

So I think we can define success on different levels (I'm just numbering these, but not in a specific order of importance per say).

Success #1: Continuing to release new books.
Success #2: Making a profit.
Success #3: Being ranked high on a best-selling list.
Success #4: Most HBs fans happy about the books.
Success #5: One individual fan happy about the books (i.e. I would call it a success because I like it).
Success #6: Having believability in the series (including continuity, some realism, etc).
Success #7: Being true to previous HBs series on some level.
Success #8: Dialogue between fans and $&$ to feature some of what they want, and for everyone to benefit this way.

So, what "success" does this series fall under? I think mostly success #5 which can be considered pretty mild.

I'm not saying that no one likes them, just making some observations. Anyways, I probably like things that aren't exactly "successful". But if you want to see it as successful...well...no one can stop you. Except maybe the Hardys in the flesh.

Totaly a success. The books are still running, the GNs are still running, they just got a computer game, a DS game is comming out, and an online game is comming out. Right now life is good for the UBs.
