A strange missive from a time before "nerdy" properties ate pop culture whole Phineas actually declares that sci-fi and fantasy fans are "all outcasts," which rings even less true in , "Nerds of a Feather" looks in hindsight like a preview of how noxious "fans" began poisoning cultural discourse as the s went on.
Of course, it's much more lighthearted than that sounds. Herein, the boys attend a fan convention where they find themselves caught in the middle of an "inter-genre geek war" between devotees of two different franchises. We also get a glimpse of Doofenshmirtz's creative aspirations as he pitches a TV show called Doof n' Puss , starring himself and Perry.
Come for guest voices Kevin Smith and Seth MacFarlane ; stay for the introduction of the recurring, seemingly insufferable in-universe kids' show Ducky Momo. In a rare move for the series, "Delivery of Destiny" spotlights a character outside the core cast, and a one-off character at that.
Christian Slater guest-stars as Paul the Delivery Guy, who's having a bit of an existential crisis, pondering his role in society while making deliveries to some familiar faces. It's a perfect example of the breadth of Phineas and Ferb 's universe; you get the sense that the show could have done a dozen episodes like this if the creators had wanted to. In this late-period gem, Doofenshmirtz hires an Australian platypus hunter to help capture Perry, but is forced to team up with the monotreme when the hunter turns on him.
A fantasy-stew riff on The Lord of the Rings and Arthurian legend, "Excaliferb" is a delightful change of pace for the show, sending the boys and their friends on a quest to defeat the evil sorcerer Malefishmirtz.
Phineas and Ferb wasn't often lauded for its animation, but the climax of "Excaliferb" — a battle involving a massive army of monsters — ranks among its finest visual moments. None of that really matters, though; any episode with a line like "What flaxen homespun have we swaggering here" automatically qualifies for the top The show's first venture into more dramatic storytelling remains one of its most poignant episodes.
Phineas and Ferb sometimes strained to give Candace meaningful story lines, but when it succeeded, the results were often superb. When Doof's latest dastardly invention lands in the family's front yard, a series of misunderstandings and coincidences leads Linda to believe her husband built it, resulting in repeated Candace-ish attempts to get him to return home. She remains unaware that the boys are meanwhile reverse-engineering the device to determine what it does.
A flashback also reveals that Linda once went on a date with Doofenshmirtz, which apparently went about as well as you'd expect, though that didn't stop the episode from launching a thousand fan theories that Doof is Phineas' biological father. Speaking of Doof, this episode finds him hoisted by his own petard-inator, as he and Perry must work together to escape the excessive series of traps he's laid out.
How pleasantly unexpected it is to hear a line like "Dad, what are you doing here? This isn't your weekend" said casually on a Disney Channel show. Unfortunately, that doll belongs to Candace, who put it in her box for the family's garage sale by accident. Repeat Viewings Recommended. If you could distill out the clever irreverent wit and the "something for all ages" mix of gags and references from "Family Guy", "The Simpsons", "SpongeBob", and South Park"; and then jettison all the off-color, negative, and crude low-hanging fruit elements of those cartoons you would get something like The Disney Channel's "Phineas and Ferb" which premiered in August The title characters, non-stop talker Phineas Vincent Martella and his usually silent brother Ferb Thomas Sangster are suburban stepbrothers trying to make the most of their summer vacation.
This means constructing elaborate gadgets like a time machine and a roller- coaster, or making a feature film. The brothers are just trying to have a fun summer, they aren't trying to cause trouble or be cool, and they are at that age where boys are not even conscious of girls or of who is popular.
Typically their teenage sister Candace Ashley Tisdale gets reluctantly drawn into their projects as she strives to keep them from embarrassing her in front of her crush Jeremy Mitchell Musso. Each storyline has her trying to "bust them" by phoning their mother about the latest home project, but by the time Mom gets home all evidence has conveniently vanished. Although there is a sibling rivalry the three obviously care about each other. Candace is the best part of the series and Tisdale does unexpectedly well supplying her voice; the part is very challenging, as the mercurial Candace requires a wide range of intonations and energy levels in her voice.
Although the series could get by just cutting between Candace and her brothers, it ups the energy level each episode with a "Kim Possible" type parallel story involving the family's pet platypus Perry he's a semi-aquatic, egg-laying, mammal of action. Perry is a secret agent assigned to foil the plots of evil but hopelessly inept scientist Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz co- creator Dan Povenmire.
The animation style is the same simplistic stuff Phineas' head is a triangle found in the other four cartoon series although like "SpongeBob" the occasional "real-life" photo is thrown into the mix. For the benefit of boy viewers, a more serious drawing style is devoted to one of the minor characters, Dr. Doofenshmirtz's beautiful daughter Veronica Olivia Olson. She is a goth version of Dr. Then again, what do I know?
