Why else, then, would they have come up with a show like Detention? A group of tweens try to avoid trouble, but inevitably end up in the detention room. Voice talent for the show includes Tia & Tamera Mowry (who were starring in another WB series, Sister, Sister, at the time), Kathleen Freeman ("The Blues Brothers"), voice-over regulars Billy West (Futurama) & Tara Strong, and, making a bit of a comeback, 60's & 70's vet Pamelyn Ferdin (ex-Curiosity Shop).
Methinks Detention was created to counter-program Disney's Recess, which was dominating ABC's Saturday lineup at the time. Unfortunately, it just didn't have the staying power.
Here for your edification is the episode, "What Did You Seance?":
Edit, 9/19/23: The episode has been removed from YouTube. In its place is the intro:
At present, the series doesn't have a cable home. Such a shame.
Rating: C.

The show is on ITunes. I repeat: The show is on ITunes.
I'm aware of that. I don't use iTunes. Had to change the video, but contrary to the screencap, there is no crossover with Batman Beyond that I can see.
