Phineas And Ferb

Mr. DS · May 29, 2009, 11:59:12 AM

Has anyone ever watched this cartoon? I'd have to say its one of the most brilliant shows ever. Basically, these two brothers are on summer vacation and are always looking for stuff to do. But, when they do things its usually epic. For example, they make race car out of their mom's station wagon, build a roller coaster all over town, invent time machines, etc. All the while their older sister is out to bust them.

In the subplot of every show their pet platypus Perry (who no one knows is a superspy) battles an inept villain named Heinz Doofenshmirtz. Heinz pretty much comes up with idiotic evil plans all the time that make no sense. In one he steals all the world's garden gnomes because his parents made him act like one for several years.

I thank my 3 year old for introducing it to me.

I've yet to watch it, actually. I always see it on, but never give it more than 3 minutes. Next time I will.

Of all the tv shows I never thought would be mentioned on this site, Phineas and Ferb has got to be in the top ten...how did this happen?

Well, it IS a site that celebrates the bad things in life: movies, music, tv. Eh. Bound to happen eventually.

I can't say it's bad though, cause I haven't watched it yet.

It "happened" because I like the show Skully. Just like conversations you take part in will happen that I may disagree with. In other words, you can feel free to disagree but keep it civil.

The show in itself could be defined as "bad" but in a good way. Corny cliches are laced throughout.

I don't even know when this show is on. Sometimes I see it after Zack and Cody, but I work a lot of hours, so it'd help to know a time/day.

Not sure, it kind of comes on at random times and often they have marathons. Its usually if not always on the Disney Channel.

The few times I've seen it, I liked it.

Srry Darksider, my comment was not an attack just a shock output. I could not believe what I saw. I admire your bravery in admitting to enjoying the show, but I must say the show does not work for me. As my grandmother always says, "Different strokes for different folks." Again, I am srry if u misunderstood my purpose in the post.

Nah don't worry Skully we're cool and I respect your opinion.

Whole-heartedly agree! My 14 y.o. daughter introduced me to it - and its darn funny! Fifteen minutes of delightful, sometimes clever, silliness. For me the highlight is Ferb's rare and often quotable comments and of course Phineas' "FERB! I know what we are going to do today!"

I also enjoy the quote in every episode..."Hey, where's Perry?"
