Shorts in a Bunch was a cool TV show that aired on Nicktoons Network. It was a variety series, which means it showed many different short cartoons in each episode. The show started on September 23, 2007, and finished on December 30, 2007. It was taken off the air because not enough people were watching it. This show was a bit like Sunday Pants on Cartoon Network, which also showed original and other short cartoons. However, Shorts in a Bunch did not have any live-action parts.
