I enjoyed Savers, and the first chunk of Frontier was tolerable until all the characters but the Gogglehead and the Loner became completely ineffectual...
I wasn't completely sure about Savers, but I had already heard bad things about Frontier that I just wanted to confirm. Thanks for the help, IZZYYYYY!! :sparta!:
Digimon Tamers was only the third series, followed by Digimon Frontier, around (2002/2003), Digimon X-Evolution (only a movie in Japan though) (2005), and then Digimon Savers/Data Squad (around 2006-2007) with various games and other merchandise releases interspersed throughout.
Technically the franchise is still alive, there just hasn't been a new major focus, like a new TV series, for some time. That's why the prospect of "Digimon Around" is so suprising and important to long time fans.
