God, I miss shows like this. This is about normal kids and nomral everyday problems. I really miss this show. I watched it all the time growing up and now that I'm in high school, wish it would have come out in my teens.
I went through a lot of the same stuff as Ginger, even to the point of her writing. I've been accused of being depressed because of mine like Ginger here.
I really, really, miss good tv shows. Now everything has gone right to hell.
@alanadavis32 The show came out in 2000 and lasted a good few years. Seeing as in the early 2000's personal home computers were bulky with limited things you could do on them even on a good computer. Most likely it wasn't an issue in the show. They rarely even use computers. Also in the early 2000's mostly adults had the computers and even they only bought them if it was for work. The laptops that first came out were as huge as the first cellphones!
I LOVE Ginger's poem. Normally end-rhymes irritate me but hers were so pretty! And I also like how the story of the poem reflects the episode. Cool cartoon :)
My english teacher said that by law in my state 8th grade teachers have to report all stories that are "concerning" to guidance..... some kids write disturbing stuff just to get sent there... like my friend... his story gave me nightmares
I love as told by ginger shes a normal girl with normal problems she doesnt own a web show, shes not the vp of a fashion studio, or goes to a school for the arts shes normal and i miss shows like this
Yeah, it seems everyone at some point wrote a sad or weird story, i remember writing about a guy who couldn't leave his room, because there was a cat outside and he thought the cat was evil and wanted to kill him, anyway at the end the guy was insane, he killed himself to avoid the cat killing him and i got sent to the counselor, didn't wrote again for years, even though it was my passion,
I was always scared to turn in my personal poems in middle school for the reason that people might think it's too sad, but the teachers always liked my work amd I even got one if my poems chosen to be published in a local book. Point of story: don't be afraid to express yourself honestly.
My favorite episode. Such an amazing deep poem and I'm sure many teens wrote something 'dark' had similar reactions from teachers or classmates. I know I did! *sigh
And also love this cause Noel! I LOVE her, so strange.
i wrote a similar poem, it was called the bat and the dove. basicaly it was about a woman who had just died and while she was sitting in her grave a dove and a bat tried to sway her to go to heaven or hell. if she went to heaven, it would be peacful but get boreing really quick. if she went to hell, she could cut lose and have more fun but she'd be condemed to torture for eternity. in the end she chooses to just hang in her grave till she could reach a decision, not like she was going anywhere.
This is so funny because my friend wrote a really weird poem about death and hell and she lost it and her civics teacher found it and gave it to the school counselor and she thought my friend was suicidal. Lol, she only wrote it because she was bored, sheesh!
@oomooj Because the woman who did Gordon's voice died mid recording sessions, it kind of screwed up the end of this season. This episode actually was released as a special, but technically it was the 36th episode and the episode Gordon died was 39th. But on the DVD's this episode was listed as #40 why? I don't know.
@qwame100 The actress that did the voice work for Mrs. Gordon (Carl's teacher) passed away after having done her voice work for this particular episode. I think the episodes were produced out of order, if I'm remembering correctly.
@qwame100 The woman who played the voice dies in 2001 but these episodes all aired in 2002/2003. Cartoons are all made well before they are aired.. It takes up to 6 months to make 1 episode. So this was probably finished and voiced before she died... And they had the line up set so they couldn't change it. but actually on wiki it says this episode aired well before the death episode. this one was nov 2002 where as gordo dying was aired june 1 2003
As much as I am annoyed by the teacher in this episode (she really should know what Ginger is like by this point, and should have asked her instead if anything was wrong, call her mom to get an opinion, observe, then recommend she see the counselor before sending her down, imo), I can understand where she's coming from. I guess it's better the teacher look out for her from the beginning, then have her ignore "troubling" feelings if there really was a problem.
I had a teacher who enjoyed things like this. He didn't question our mental health whenever we thought up material that was either violent, mature, or dark. Unfortunately, after leaving his class, I'm scared to share some of my work for fear that I would be examined like Ginger.
Honestly this episode frightened me when I was little, but at the same time it was my favorite episode. I can remember it so vividly as I'm watching it for the first time in years.
when i was younger, i would just watch this and become easily entertained. and the older i've gotten, the more i understand the message behind the episodes.
That show has a plot like how you people say this show has one. I agree iCarly is shit but its no way like wowp. We like our shows more cuz they made US laugh so whats good for us is what is good for the new kids? Think. 3) I hate teachers like Z who overreact when people make deppressing stuff. I drew a pic for the most dangerous game as a project and i was called in to the office for drawing a graphic pic. I used to be one of the most chipper people at school. I was mad.
1)this show is frm 00s not the 90s. 2)stop hating on spongebob & wowp. I like wowp. We hatin hate the new shows. When the kids of now grow up they will look back at the shows they watch now and think theyre good. We cant be biased and say our shows are better. Its not fair. Notice we dont say the other classics like scooby doo, josie & da p.cats, Tom & J etc. Only 90s Tv. It proves we are being selfish and forcing our views on the kids. Tv now isnt all bad. I love my 90s Tv, but i like ben 10.
sometimes, i feel, that if you tell a kid that they wrote something that needs a PSYCHOLOGIST'S attention, you're indirectly telling them they're messed up in the head. this is definitely a detriment, especially if you know the kid well (in ms. zorski's case with ginger). it makes the kid feel terrible about him/herself, creating the feelings that you THOUGHT you originally sensed. a catch 22, it would seem.
@abridgedfan107 A lot of people cause teens to feel bad about themselves in this way. Being "concerned" about a kid just because they wrote something dark makes them feel like there IS something wrong when there isnt.
@TheFutileSearch Yes, but the original air date for this episode was November 2002. The episode where Ms. Gordon dies had an original air date of June 2003. So, yes, they did get the episodes out of order but they recorded this episode before she died.
This was my favourite episode. I love the poem and how everyone thinks Ginger is all depressed, over-reacting when it was just a poem. I love the bits with Carl, Hoodsie and Noel.
@andiarcoiris333 Yes, but obviously not in this episode. It happens in a later episode. She was originally supposed to just retire but the voice actress passed away in real life so they rewrote the script to have Gordo pass away on the show.
This is a great episode. I can so relate. I don't know how many time's I've writting something for creative writing class and teacher found it 'troubling'. I've pretty much given up on writing my really good things for her class, though I still write it outside of it.
People need to realize that it's only writing. Not a reason to accuse that person of being a head case!
@MedievalPlease What's wrong with writing being disturbing or troubling? If you're writing something like that, it's because that's what you want to say to the world.
So did I. Although I was in Catholic School, so my teacher wasn't accepting of "racy" content. One time I wrote a story that was set during the Salem Witch Trials, and it wasn't the death, religious predijuce, or the few cuss words in it that "concerned" him... it was because my male protragonist admitted to his love interest that he doesn't bellieve in religion, that had him pull me aside.
@MedievalPlease well i gave something to my teacher at the end of the year (this school year) and she didnt even say "thank you" and my friend had to type it for me since i didnt have a printer
@MedievalPlease People have committed suicide because their work wasn't understood and was brushed off. I would know, I thought about committing suicide, so I wrote how I felt...too bad someone found it....I'm still here.
@MedievalPlease Writing does stem from a personal context though (but everyone has a reason to be depressed =\) I think Ginger was writing about a dilemma. She's the "different one". That's why Courtneigh doesn't allow her access her clique and so she might feel abit alienated.
@MedievalPlease I remember losing a writing contest because the judge/teacher felt the piece to be "too sad". Still pisses me off. I think a story about a happy dancing cat won.
This was my favorite episode of my favorite show...sadly when this show came out I was only 3 :( I just remember a little bit of it but I'm glad I get to watch it now :) Thx for uploading
If your students writes something that "worries you" Try actually talking to them....ya know...like a person....not like a head case. You'd be surprised how it helps more then being forced into a small room with some therapist.
This was my favorite episode of Ginger, next to Far from home. This episode inspired me to write short poems when I was younger. Those poems are long gone, as this show, but I look back with nostalgia.
@JulyTwilightFan Um, No icarly and wizards of waverly place are in the same generatino .. and made around the SAME time. so whatever she said does NOT make ANY not none sense! :)
6:20 - 7:20 you know, my english teacher doesnt believe in sending students off to be evaluated after they write disturbing pieces. its becuz of exactly what ginger said, its creative writing, fictional.
I always knew Dodie was super selfish but the whole "write your poem about me" was just too much. I HATE HER more than any other character of any show ever created.
I remember writing peoms in junior high, and I still do even thow I'm a junior, I still love to write and draw it's fun. I luv this show but I cnt beleive they cancel it and I'm very surprise dat spongebob is still on. Lol XD
@victoriak93 the reason as told by ginger is cancelled and sponge bob isn't is because sponge bob has no real plot just mindless comedy so its easier to write episodes for sponge bob than as told by ginger its more of a story based show
one of the best cartoons ever. each episode had a point and taught everyone a new lesson. it was so well thought out. and now all the cartoons today are so pointless and teach you nothing. im happy i got to see shows like this before it all went to hell.
this episode reminds me of a quote by David Foster Wallace," a good piece of fiction is supposed to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed"
Wow this was one of my favorite episodes! I loved the way the poem is interated from Ginger's view. WE REALLY NEED CARTOONS LIKE THIS AGAIN!! We'll it was good, while it lasted, but we need more.
This show also taught me about interracial dating. My parents wouldn't let me watch it because a girl was dating a black man.

I find it funny how Dodie said she got stitches in her chin, since most every girl in the show has no chin except maybe Miranda.

6:20 - 7:20 you know, my english teacher doesnt believe in sending students off to be evaluated after they write disturbing pieces. its becuz of exactly what ginger said, its creative writing, fictional.

I always knew Dodie was super selfish but the whole "write your poem about me" was just too much. I HATE HER more than any other character of any show ever created.

I remember writing peoms in junior high, and I still do even thow I'm a junior, I still love to write and draw it's fun. I luv this show but I cnt beleive they cancel it and I'm very surprise dat spongebob is still on. Lol XD
victoriak93 1 year ago
@victoriak93 the reason as told by ginger is cancelled and sponge bob isn't is because sponge bob has no real plot just mindless comedy so its easier to write episodes for sponge bob than as told by ginger its more of a story based show

one of the best cartoons ever. each episode had a point and taught everyone a new lesson. it was so well thought out. and now all the cartoons today are so pointless and teach you nothing. im happy i got to see shows like this before it all went to hell.

I agree with everyone who says todays shows are crap.. yes sadly they are.
As told by ginger was one of the best and Ginger is such a great writer.

this episode reminds me of a quote by David Foster Wallace," a good piece of fiction is supposed to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed"
