I think most of this stuff is them growing up to be honest. I think as long as they don't go too far (like Britney Spears or Lindsey Lohan for example) there isn't too much to worry about. So far like you said they appear to be handling it pretty well. I do sometimes that they'll end up like a lot of childhood stars do. I don't know if you ever watched the Amanda Show (Dan wrote that too about 10 years ago) but the star Amanda Bynes has been getting in trouble over the past year. Drunk driving, hit and run, and driving with a suspended license are all on her record now. Sometimes I worry that the iCarly cast might do that stuff one day.

I'm really impressed with Jennette's handling of the situation. I don't even like calling her a celebrity. More like a regular person that happens to be famous.

Power Rangers also bring back memories, although in a different way than Pokemon. I never watched Power Rangers, but my friends did. Part of the reason is that I never watched it is because I didn't get cable until 2000. My friends would always play Power Rangers on the playground during recess (this was back before the internet replaced outdoor recreation lol) and I'd join in as one of the Power Rangers. I remember everyone would always fight about who got to be which color lol. I knew nothing about the show other than a bunch of colored heros fought villains but I played along anyway. So yeah, it brings back memories but I know nothing about it. By the way, did you know that they're airing new episodes of Power Rangers on Nick? I never really gave the show a shot because I was afraid that the remake wouldn't be as good as the original (although I never really watched the original). Nick has been airing some pretty bad programing over the past few years so it wouldn't surprise me if they ruined PR.

I notice you're bringing up a a lot of 90's stuff (well, it came out in the 90s for me I don't know if they delay things in other countries). Did you watch 90's Nick? Shows like Rugrats, CatDog, and Hey Arnold? What about games? Did you ever play Nintendo? I remember there was this game called Super Mario 3 that I could have played all day had I gotten the chance.
