Creators of Homestar Runner say no to Cartoon Network

You know, it's probably been more than a year since I went to the Homestar Runner website. I used to love watching the adventures of sweet, dopey Homestar, evil genius Strong Bad, and the rest of the crew, especially as a way to distract myself during my IT days. But, for some reason, I just stopped looking for new SB e-mails and other cartoons. And whatever internet buzz the cartoon generated seemed to die down at around the same time.Which is why I'm surprised to read this article from Wired News: it seems that the Cartoon Network had been in talks with creators Matt and Mike Chapman about a Homestar cartoon that would be added to the Adult Swim lineup. But, interestingly enough, the brothers Chapman decided to turn them down. Yes, folks, you read that correctly.
