How Phineas And Ferb Did The "Impossible"
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 січ 2020
- Everyone told the creators of Phineas and Ferb that the show they wanted to make was impossible. Yet, the best Phineas and Ferb episodes prove that what was supposed to be impossible, is really just a rethinking of how animated shows are written. Whether its Perry and Doofenshmirtz or a song, its hard to forget this show once you've seen it. Phineas and Ferb was Disney taking a risk, and its one that absolutely paid off.

What is the best Disney show of all time?
Phineas and Ferb
Phineas and Ferb honestly 😂
Even Stephens
Gravity Falls
Ducktales owl house and aphampia.
"aren't you kids a little young to transcend time and space?"
"yes, yes we are"
"Ok now sign up here to now be legally able to drink"
Arent you a little young to ascend to the astral plane ?
Absolutely genius! Lines like that are part of why this show is so great and connects with such a wide audience.
"Aren't you wondering if we're a little young to make this stuff?" "Yes! Yes I am!"
"Aren't you kids a little young to be invading Poland?"
"Yes, Yes we are"
“Aren’t you a little young to be breaking the boundaries of traditional children’s shows?”
“Yes, yes we are.”
Gravity falls: am I a joke to you
@Stevie G Isn't the one that comes first the one that breaks it? :P
Craylik sure except for gravity falls broke in a completely different way. so they still broke away from tradition. even though phineas and ferb came first, gravity falls still could have followed tradition, but they didnt so they still broke traditional boundaries.
facebook yes

The smartest thing they did was tell us what an aglet is
facts
IT DOESN’T MATTER
Fact!!
@@jadeshabaron4661 It looks like you are the only one here who cares about AGLET.
Man, really that episode was awesome.
A G L E T
Don't forget it.
and never forget it
Remember when they did an episode where they raced planets and Buford called it Uranos instead of Uranus and when Balgeet said he was saying it wrong he replied with “that’s how we say it in this channel.” That still gets me
I can’t wait to see that episode
In season 4
That's absolute GOLD
Breaking the 4th wall haha
"It all began on the day of my actual birth. Both of my parents failed to show up." is still one of the funniest lines in television history, change my mind.
I absolutely can't nor should I. That line is beautiful.
Agreed. It is one of the funniest lines XD
You're laughing. Doof was an orphan and you're laughing
@@LostSoulSilver At least,he wasn't turned into a pickle..
If you said, it's the funniest line ever, only then would I want to change anything.
I downright died when Doof was hit with an ugly-a-nator and his face stayed the same, I’m 19 and it still gets me
Mariah • AHAHAHAH this show was so funny to me and still is 👏👏
I love that in the Night of the Living Pharmacists Dr. Doofensmirtz transformed Roger into the most ugly thing imaginable, which turned out to be an exact copy of Heinz himself. 😆
Good humor never dies
I'm 19 as well and that episode's still lit
I love this show its now just for kids it's for enjoyment for all
“this is too complicated”
everyone: *understands formula in one episode*
Maybe it’s the other thing
It's complicated about how Phineas and Ferb managed to make their invention less than a minute and how Doofenshmirtz went from being raised by Oselots, abused by his parents and friends to become some evil mad rich af scientists in Danville 😂😂😂
@@Bjork4sHe’s an EVIL scientist, not a MAD scientist. He’s not angry
- Doof in Phineas and Ferb Save Summer
I loved the show as a kid because it didn't force "lessons" down your throat but instead encouraged genuine creativity and having fun.
the funniest moment to me is when perry kicks down doofenschmirtz's door and he gets mad bc the door wasn't even locked and forces perry to pay for the insurance
That was great
Yea, I swear
I don't even recall that scene, but just imagining it made me laugh pretty damn hard
just an alternative emo kid and the one where he reinforces the lock, Perry kick it open and just makes a hole in it XD
@@caluhhhb They kept continuity as well. The next time, Perry did consider the open door.
The smartest thing that the show did was also quitting while ahead and actually successfully wrapping up most of the character arcs.
I know it’s true, but I would kill for just one more season.
true like one can only imagine the shit show it could have fallen to if they forced it to continue to this day
Come to think of it, that's just what Calvin and Hobbes did right too (although there weren't that many arcs that it could really wrap up). Actually, there are a lot of similarities between Calvin n Hobbes and Phineas and Ferb. Both written for adults but widely enjoyed by kids. Both have an iconic comedic duo. Both have characters that never grow older or change.
@@nathanwagner5861 breaking the fourth wall
We got a movie coming soon
I actually never noticed that there weren't really conflicts or character developments in that show.
Well there's at least one thing happening over the course of time: Jeremy and Candace getting together in a relationship.
Buford has a massive character development? From biggest bully in town to beloved friend with some of the best one-liners. Baljeet and Buford’s relationship is major development. The amount Ferb talks. Candace and Jeremy. Stacy getting a main character role. The fireside girls getting main character roles. People eventually finding out that Perry the platypus is an agent (even if they forget). The boys getting “busted.” And that’s not even the half of it. SOOO much character development it’s unreal. All while maintaining the formula in each episode!
Doofenshmirtz and Vanessa's relationship evolves.
I think the one that evolves the most is Doof and Vanessa's relationship aswell as Perry and Doof
There are character developments, but it’s extremely subtle.
Apprently, after Summer Belongs to You, Isabella and Phineas grow closer together
My fav episode when Planty the Potted Plant defeated doof and got himself job in OWCA
The Organisation Without a Cool Acronym
Don’t forget the time when a completely normal platypus accidentally switched places with Agent P and was licking Coffee off the ground and Doofensmirtz immediately assumed it was an intimidation tactic
It was so sad when Planty’s cover was blown and had to resign. 😢
"there's no true emotional stakes"
*Balloony: Am I a joke to you*
Yes, Balloony. You are actually a joke.
🤣
Yes, yes you are
that cut deep
Don't forget doof's emotionally scaring back stories
What's actually impossible is how they afforded all their builds.
They had connections xD

They’re on the city council
@@PurpleSparklesHeart was going to say that
I mean, aren't they too young to be building that?
"The only thing impossible in life is impossibility"
-Phineas
That was one of his great lines!
but if impossible is impossible, then that means that something IS impossible, which means that impossibility is NOT impossible
Phineas and Ferb feels like it gets kids. It didn’t try and pretend they were made of glass.
“It all started in the day of my actual birth. Both of my parents failed to show up.”
"No emotional stakes" my a**...
The literal "birth him and yeet him"
+
every. single. birthday.
Favorite line ever
They always ask "Where's Perry?"
Never "How's Perry?"
"Why's Perry?"
"When's Perry?"
"Who's Perry?"
“What’s Perry?”
@@riakaty1979 Actually, one of Ferb's cousins did ask "Who's Perry?" when they visited...
And we all can agree that they created one of the best characters ever. I’m of course referring to Dr. D.
Phineas and Ferb had very repetitive episodes and each one still managed to entertain me. Now that's the impossible.
“Kids are smarter than shows give them credit for” I’m glad some creators realize that
Thats why so many kids shows of today (or episodes from our old glorious shows like the Yellow Sponge) are dull and not worth watching, because most writers dont think that many kids arent actually dumb but enjoy more "complicated" and sophisticated stuff and to make the episodes also enjoyable for older audiences. Because thats how you create great franchises. Catering to both young and old. I always loved P&F and I can remember many things just as I remember the older Spongebob episodes or songs.
If I ever get kids. I will show them P&F, Old Spongebob/Simpsons. Because I for sure know that they will enjoy it, maybe not to the extend I love it. But nonetheless :)
It's like this in the Game Dev scene too, it's always a fight between us devs and the higher ups who don't think kids are capable of doing challenging things. Kid's are out there playing Fortnight and Minecraft, let us make the game fun.
IKR
I was was dumb little shit tho, but most kids aren't.
Apparently "some" is two lol
Favorite quote from them is from the solstice special when they are stuck on the island.
“Look! A sponge and a starfish! There’s gotta be something we can make out of that! Wait no, that’s ridiculous.”
Watching this video, I now completely get how genius this joke is.
Absolutely fucking genius.
Although I didn't watch that episode (P&F didn't air much at my country), gotta say that reference was absolute gold
Sponge bob 🧽
I can hear phineas crying when I read this
Another thing I loved about the show is that it never took itself too seriously. It always cracked jokes on itself which made it even funnier.
"Feels like this summer has been going on for like, 3 Years." -Dr.Doof, Season 3
@@PhantomTissue”Has it only been three months? Because I’ve been counting, and we’re WAY over 150”
- Buford
The most tragic backstory was when Doof's mom never let him go swimming.
What about when he lost his only friend, Balooney? Or how neither of his parents showed up for his birth (somehow)
Or when he had to wear pretty dresses for an entire year? Or when he spent a years worth of savings (3 cents) on a teddy bear for his mother only for her to give it to Roger? Or when his family disowned him and he was adopted by ocelots? My point is that he had backstories FAR more tragic than not being able to swim.
@@jacobadams9876 yeah, that's the point of their joke
@@nortche6339 I know
@@nortche6339 I was humoring them
His parents didn't even show up at his birth..
One of the things I love about Phinneas and Ferb is that somebody's embarrassment never became the thing to laugh at. Even when Candace was sometimes put in an embarrassing situation, she still wasn't humiliated. I hate watching shows that make someone being the butt of the joke an important part of the comedy. Not only does it feel a bit gross, but my secondhand embarrassment is too strong.
Cassie D. That means you have a good ❤️ and aren’t a psychopath.
Congratulations:)
Backruborbust Nothing wrong with being a psychopath either
@@bigman-em7cc Yeah, from what i know you are born a psychopath, you don't choose to be one
i feel exactly the same way about a lot of comedy
@@bigman-em7cc but nothing wrong in thinking something is wrong as well! ;-)
One of my favorite lines from Phineas and Ferb:
"Well, I think we have all learned a valuable lesson today....But we all know what it is, so why waste time repeating it?"
An obvious jab at how a lot of kids shows talk down to their target audience. Like Dan Povenmire said: Kids are smarter than people give them credit for.
There are a lot of culture reference in phineas and ferb that are just great. The show is like family guy for kid. During episode "summer belong to you" phineas introduce his amazing sun beater 3000 and Buford was like "it a name follow a big number" making fun of standard kid trope of cool vehicular device with a big number.
@@thinhvo3893 It's almost always "3000" isn't it? Didn't the naming convention come from various devices being named with the year they were made?
Lauren Brown OMG I forgot about that quote! I loved that XD. I HATE when kids shows have that thing where in the last scene of the episode, the characters have a whole conversation where they spell out the lesson they learned word for word, then they all shout “YEAH!!!!”, everybody laughs and the episode ends. Oh and then there are the kids shows who instead of doing this they take it one step further and end the episode by SINGING about the lesson.
P and F actually DID end one episode with an “I guess we all learned a valuable lesson today” conversation (when they’d spent the day looking for Perry in Africa and then back at the camp after they found him they were wondering how he got to Africa in the first place), but they were just parodying it and I remember it made Candace super pissed😂😂
@@DraconicDuelist Yeah but lately kid show just throw random big number that mean nothing.
Thinh Vo you mean musical numbers or actual numbers??
I loved this show when I was kid and now as a 21 year old, I have no shame in saying i bought Disney+ just to watch Phineas and Ferb. I honestly enjoy it even more now that i’m an adult more than I did when I was a kid.
I agree
Me too!! Has been my favorite show since was a kid, and I bought disney plus just to watch it, I enjoy it so much now, it brings me good memories
You adult and still watch cartoons?
OMG IT'S ON DISNEY+!?
@@PDBisht yes, yes we are
My favorite gag is Isabella having a crush on Phineas and him not even noticing. It was so iconic that at a panel, Alyson Stoner (Isabella’s voice actress) explicitly said it and Vincent Marella (Phineas’s voice actor) replied with “I don’t know WHAT she’s tapking about.”
I loved that one episode where they just literally did nothing and Candace didn’t believe them
Funny enough that was the episode that got me into this show
I vaguely remember that, in a "now that you mention it" kind of way.
OMG I HAD FORGOTTEN THAT ONE.
the whole thing is on Disney+ if you want to figure out what episode it was
@@Zaron_Gaming so sad that Disney+ isn't available in my country :(
They formed a whole generation also taught everyone Aglet A-G-L-E-T aglet dont forget it
THAT SONG IS STILL THE REASON I KNOW WHAT THE END OF A SHOELACE IS CALLED
@@grantbreidenbach9444 ABSOLUTELY SAME
And ironically they made all the characters of the show forget the thing that nobody who has watched it ever will.
Mutated Pearl
The audience: Do not disgrace our Lord and savior Aglet!
The funniest thing is, i learned what an aglet was DAYS before i saw the episode!
"The ending is always happy"
The 2nd dimension movie: well yes but actually D A R K
It was happy tho
I dont remember saying this... what is this all about?
The fact that pretty much every single Phineas and Ferb song is iconic is impressive enough
"This summer just keeps going on and on, it feels like its been going on for like 4 years."
-Doofenshmirtz
Yeah, one of those self referential jokes that I love about this show.
@@rageoftyrael There was one BUfford counting the days and saying its over 100 and it still is summer
Lol
Hey, its pretty much been an endless summer this year, anyway.
Yooo that would be a huge plot twist
When doof cant recognize Perry without his hat

In a hilarious twist, Disney said it was “impossible”. And the boys do the impossible, I love this show in so many ways.
The “kids are smarter than networks give them credit for” thing is really true
The only episode that didn't have a song was the pilot, so they later remade that episode as a 22 minute musical. I love this show.
Wait, really?
@@alucard347 Rollercoaster: The Musical is an episode that is a remake of the first episode (but still takes place after the first) and contains like 8 songs or so.
@@awesomness6775 thanks!
This show was so inventive and I can't believe I just now realized that.

Me: "It all started in the day of my actual birth. Both of my parents failed to show up".
Interviewer:..."What?"...
She gave birth, took one look at him, got up, and walked out. Truly the most tragic of all his backstories.
What?
Doofenshmirtz apparently told Perry this in one episode.
LilacDragon44 it was in the movie
@@koiaseb movie and an episode
I also gotta add the translators did an amazing job, at least for the german translation. They managed to translate the songs and still have everything fitting the beat and expressing the same
Same for the Latin American Spanish
Same in Taiwan!
They discovered something that doesn't exist, the biggest mindf*ck
Just A Dio Who's A Hero For Fun somehow, most scientists would disagree.
I think it would mean discovering something that we never thought to exist.
Clone Blaster 9 out of 10, to be exact.
So a pattern screamer
*WRRYYYYYYYYY*
I’m 90% sure Dr Doofenshmirtz had the most emotional, intense backstory there is.
I think doof is tied with the guy from sponge bob with glass bones and paper skin ;-;
Scarlet fox Oh yes absolutely, thats a great comparison lol
“Every morning I break my arms, and every night I break my legs” or whateva he said, yall know what Im talkin bout ;D
@@MerkhVision Said guy was also a scam artist.
"It all started on the day of my birth. Both my parents failed to show up"
Xyloshun Ren being raised by ossolottes is pretty weird and neither of his parents showing up for his birth and having to work as a lawn gnome. that's pretty rough..
For me this show is a template for the modern day Looney Toons, it has rules but once they’re established it can play with them and it’s honestly just so much fun it makes me happy
Disney said it wasn't going to work and now Phineas and Ferb is being renewed for another season. This show is what got me interested in animation and art and I will forever be grateful for it. There will never be another show like it
“Squirrels in my Pants” still slaps to this day.
#1 rapper eminem was afraid to diss
The writers got a rhyming dictionary for that song. Seriously.
Same
Yes it does!
Oh this shows' songs are absolute banger
“I ain’t got rhythm” still slaps all these years later
I adore that song
I always end up coming back to it once in awhile
Bruh i love that song. It comes back into my head at least once a week🤣
Meep ! 🐿 in my pants
Literally
I always though that Phineas and Ferb was a very smart show with smart humor, and that's the main reason why I enjoyed it so much. It's cool to see that that was actually the writers' intention
I can always appreciate when a creator doesn't just assume kids are dumb. They aren't. They are just adults in little bodies. Talking down to them can cause life long problems
No emotional stakes? We all forgotten about every single time doofenshmirtz has a flashback?
(edit: doesn't matter but for some reason my comment is invisible to some of my friends that want proof it exists, anyone know why?)
And the occasional threat of Perry's identity getting revealed.
Man, what a tragedy he had. His parents were not there for him so many time, there were not even there on his day of birth!
Huub Huijbens
That’s nothing! Don’t you remember 2D Doof‘s backstory? HE LOST HIS CHOO-CHOO!
Literally the saddest moments in cinematic history, fight me
Rainpooper And his scar went OVER his eyepatch! The pain!
For some reason, I didn’t even notice there was a song in EVERY episode
I actually generally dislike having lots of musical stuff in shows. That I didn't notice it in one of my favorite cartoons, is, at least to me, a testament to how well they did it.
The only songs I remember are AGLET, SIMP (Squirls in my Pants!), and Busted, lol
IIRC, a lot of the songs were during a montage scene and not the characters actually singing them (which is why you probably didn't realize it).
There's no song in Rollercoaster. Unless we're counting theme songs?
where are my gitchee gitchee goo squad at 🙋🏻♀️
When I was a kid my dad would always watch Fineas and Ferb with me and I wondered why he enjoyed a kids show so much. Thank you for the enlightenment
Fun Fact : This show was the pitched for 16 years. From Fox Kids to Cartoon Network to Nickelodeon, all of them rejected it. Disney was the final channel for the creators to pitch, at first Disney rejected the concept but they ask the creators for them to keep the portofolio of the drawings and that was the last hope that the creator have in pitching the show meaning that if Disney rejected it, that's literally the end of it. Instead Disney surprised them by accepting it and the rest is history
People disproving of the pitch: "What reason do we have to sympathize with Doofenshmirtz? Could you tell some of his backstory?"
*_None of my parents showed up for my birth_*
its both my parents failed to show up for my birth
@@hungrey3568 i don't know why i found it half hilarious half sad
That makes sense

Time To Make The NOSTALGIC-INATOR
beautiful.
I never knew it took 16 years to get the show off the ground - the most interesting part of that to me is just thinking of the age difference in its eventual audience! I was 16 when the first episode aired, and LOVED it even though I figured I was a bit too old to be its target audience. Never knew it had been in development my entire life at that point! If it had had an easier start, I might have grown up with it! Maybe that explains the instant appeal lol.
Watching Phineas and Ferb everyday with my older sister was a true summer childhood experience. In our Disney Channel server they would broadcast Phineas and Ferb everyday during the summer breaks and it just gave us that feeling/aura of summer that no other cartoon was able to make. I loved this show and will never hate it.
The writers choosing not to dumb down the writing is why I was able to still watch this show with my younger brother even tho I was in high school and he was still in elementary school.
This! My little brother kept watching the show throughout its airing and it could keep me entertained as well.
Agreed. I hate it when producers or game companies say that kids are dumb and simple. My two responses go
NO THEY ARE NOT!!!!
Or
EVEN IF THEY ARE THEN STOP GIVING THEM STUFF THATS SO SINPLE IT CAN LITERALLY ONLY BE FUN FOR A CHILD
Man this show came out when i was in 1st grade, and im 18 now. This is still a really fun and hilarious show to watch and I'm glad that i never outgrew it
sandrasaysrawwr yeah I decided to rewatch some of the episodes now that I’m in high school and I felt so nostalgic and it was so fun singing all the songs I grew up with😊
Bruh when I was 6 my sister and I watched it with my Dad and we all loved it
People: This show will do so great!
Show: *Does horrible*
People: This show will go horribly!
Show: *wins award for how good of a show it is*
to be fair, there are a lot of times when people were right
To be fair, you have to have a pretty high IQ to understand Phineas and Ferb.
Thankfully, most cartoons are doing great, because people were right, very few cases where the rejected theme for the show rose up like P&F .
Devin Paul To be fair, you don’t HAVE to understand Phineas and Ferb to enjoy it. It’s a shockingly ambitious and kind show and it was a bit of a long-shot that they pulled it off.
@@ColinPaddock You call yourself a current animation fan-- and THAT'S what you respond with. REALLY.
P&F: “Don’t worry. Just be happy.”
Me: “Tell that to my face after your wave to the camera in the last episodeee!😭😭😭”
I cried almost as hard as i did when i found out Delores Umbridge survived through the fifth book.
I frequently shuffle all the songs from Phineas and Ferb and just listen to them for fun. My Dad once asked, "Aren't you a little old for that?" I wish I had the foresight to have responded, "Wel,, yes, yes I am."
"Aren't you kids a little young to be immortalized in the hearts and minds of millions?"
"No. No we aren't."
Tiina Allen id give this a like but it has 911
Everything in one episode:
"Hey Ferb, I know what we're going to do today"
"Hey, where's Perry?"
Cuts to Perry going to his secret lair

"Good morning, Agent P. Stop Doofenshmirtz."
DOOFENSHMIRTZ EVIL INCORPORATEEEEEED
"Ah! Perry the Platypus."
Doof traps Perry
"Behold! The _____inator!"
He possibly says something like a tragic backstory or a reason why he built what he built
Perry rolls his eyes
Cut to Phineas and Ferb making their big invention, Isabella saying "whatcha doin," Buford and Baljeet also joining in, Phineas and Ferb completing their invention, and Candace trying to get Mom's attention
Maybe some "aren't you a little young to be ______?" "Yes, yes I am."
Cut back to Doof and Perry
Perry escapes while Doof is just rambling about nothing
Then they fight and probably bump into the inator which usually goes into rapid fire after they do
Inator explodes, probably
CURSE YOU, PERRY THE PLATYPUUUUUSSS!!
A zap from the inator destroys Phineas and Ferb's invention thus getting rid of the evidence
Candace finally shows Mom and it's gone
Candace says something like, "but, but, but, but"
"Oh there you are, Perry!"
"Anyone want some pie?
"Yes, yes we do."
Ferb says something

You forgot one thing
Candace says but, but, but, but but but...
I feel like Phineas and Ferb are plot driven characters done well. They’re static in a way that their intrinsic motivations throughout the whole series never changes and the script never really leaves room for nuance in the one dimensional type of character. I feel like we see more depth to Doofenshmirtz or even Candace than we do the titular protagonists. Yet I feel like this works to show’s advantage because it allows an audience (a majority impressionable kids) to more easily project their own selves onto the two characters who keep on winning.
Honestly he is so right that this show is written for anyone. I’m 19, my sister is 23, and my dad is 50 and recently we were just all together and just randomly turned on Phineas and Ferb and we were CRACKING UP cause it is so genuinely funny. It’s humor is so unique and anybody can enjoy it. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who didn’t like Phineas and Ferb and that’s awesome cause it’s a unifying factor between a lot of people. Me and my friends make Phineas and Ferb quotes constantly and they’re so funny to me cause I can directly imagine how funny it was the first time I watched it. If you can’t tell, I just really love this show and now after it has been explained in a bit more detail I see why I liked it so much.
The most under appreciated fact is that the songs are genuinely good, even without the context from the show. And they made songs for multiple genres.
how are they under appreciated? everyone who has seen the show knows the songs be jamming lol. You just wanted to be over dramatic didn't you.
Cousin Patsey and the translations. Principals in French and Spanish. I grew up singing them
And all (or most) were Dan and Swampy saying, "Can it be something like this?" and Danny from Bowling for Soup leaning back in his chair and staring up at the ceiling, "Huh... yeah... yeah, I think I could do that."
And I gotta admit, I LIKED Bowling for Soup back in the day, but I never held them to a very high musical standard. The stuff he accomplished on this show was in a whole different league.
@@danieltsiu7383 Maybe for you, but pretty much anyone I talk to forgets there were musical numbers in most episodes
@@cousinpatsey2471 almost every episode has a musical number in it,right?
It's scary to think that the show first aired 12 years ago. I remember when my dad was at work and he came back he would always want to watch sports, but when Phineas and Ferb was on he'd never change the channel. He laughed uncontrollably to the adult jokes in the show and at the time I could not understand what was so funny. He even said it's his favourite cartoon of all times, the writers of the show really managed to keep all of it's audience watching. My dad passed away 3 years ago and is probably watching Phineas and Ferb in heaven right now. Rip dad
RIP
RIP
Your dad is right. Phineas and Ferb is the greatest cartoon of all time.
Yet one more reason to love this show: it gave you those awesome memories with your dad

Mooommm! Phineas and Ferb made a show that harbored millions of fans and produced catchy songs.
Show: There's 104 days of summer vacation
2020: Are you kidding me? That's insultingly low!
😂
When quarantine started this was the first thing came to my mind
Before 2019: Really? 104 days?!?! That alot of day for summer
2020 people: THAT IS TOO SHORT we have probably over 200 days of summer

What do you mean? Every day of summer break is already enjoyable. You get to kick back. Even when I have work I’m still happy.

*how phineas does the impossible: putting his shirt on*
He turns it inside out, steps into the bottom of it, pulls it up to his neck, and then flips it back the right way while pulling it down.
he actually did it in first minutes of In the 2nd Dimension movie
and gets the stripes painted on by perry
Always thought how he put on his shirt😂😂
His face bends. It's fabric of nightmares
I love the fact that they made an entire episode centered on the top of a shoelace which also had an amazing music score as well. Though in my humble opinion. “Bow Chicka wow wow” will always be number 1
This! The elevated humor just makes it long lasting! Dan and Jeff are geniuses! They created a enjoyable and stimulating series that has been beneficial for children and adults alike. I’ve enjoyed phineas and ferb since it’s release as a child, and as a young adult, I am still finding new things that keep me interested. I do strongly credit this show for shaping how I am as a person because it’s not just a filler show. It truly does provide skills for children, while being enjoyable for parents. I will forever be a P&F fan because of it. The things that make it unique are what make it the best. I just found this video, but I’m so glad I did because you managed to put everything a phineas and ferb fan would say while providing concrete proof as well! Great video about a great show!
Doofenshmirtz: "AAAAH! I'm ugly! I'm horrible! I'm- I'm-... Oh, reeeeal funny."
en ay I die laughing every time!
Why do I read that with doofenschmirzt voice in my head😂

“phineas and ferb tells us to be happy”
*remembers all dr doofenshmirtz’s sad backstory*
It all began in the day of my birth, both of my parents failed to show up
He was forced to be a lawn gnome, raised by ocelots for a period of time, had to wear dresses for an entire year and was mocked for that, tried to show his mother love but his mum just hated him and preferred Roger because he sucks at kickball, he was lied by his parents and sent to America, got divorced, damn he had a bad life
"Dude, I was raised by ocelots! Literally! Disowned by my parents and raised by Central American wildcats. I had to work as a _lawn gnome._ I had to wear hand-me-up girls' clothing. _Neither of my parents showed up for my birth!_
No emotional stakes my a**.
It's so sad that it's already funny
man , lets cry for him together
It's sort of funny how each episode had multiple plotlines + an original song, but it never felt confusing or complicated.
The fact they landed each episode accomplishing that while I can still remember full episodes plotlines in my brain years later is extremely impressive!!!
ALSO... I can still sing a lot of the songs or at least sing-along with it should they start playing as well... Just bravo
When I was depressed, I’d watch this show for hours and hours. I didn’t watch any other show cause they all felt boring. But Phineas and Ferb was still as funny as it was 10 years ago when me and my friends watched every episode.
Random person: " aren't you too old to watch Phineas and Ferb?"
Me:" No, no I'm not "
you never are
I didn't say that
random person I was confused but when I saw you’re name bruh u got me gooood
@@randomperson8994 I laughed for 5 minutes because of your comment
random person that’s good man 😂
"It all began the day of my actual birth. Both of my parents failed to show up."
This show is and always will be legendary
Forever and ever
I remember when I was really getting back into the show when I was really young. I would sit down and watch a few episodes, and there was something there that I never really could describe. Keep in mind, I was at the age where I had no real concept and love for well crafted shows and movies as I do now, we all were relatively like that when we were that age. But somehow, there was just something there that kept me watching and jokes and humour that made me enjoy every second of it. This aspect of the show has always stuck with me, even today. And since Covid recommends us to stay indoors, imma binge watch the heck out of this show.
Okay but the SONGS. Summer belongs to you. What might have been. Gitchee gitchee goo. Busted. Platypus controlling me. Ain't got rythm. Need i go on ? Every single song was such a bop. Sometimes i'll find myself humming a song from the show, and i'll be like wait, what ? Amazing.
One Good Scare is my favorite!
The elevated writing, also makes the show timeless. Where kids who grew up with it can rewatch it catching all of the incredibly funny visual gags they weren’t looking for or the jokes they couldn’t understand.
Elevated writing helps a lot when it comes to the longevity of these shows. A lot of cartoons and TV shows want to focus strictly on the kids, but the great shows focus on both the kids AND the parents. You want to create a writing style whimsical enough for the kids, but also sophisticated enough to be appreciated by adults, ensuring that the kids who grew up watching the show, will still cherish the show when watching it with their kids. Shows like Phineas and Ferb, SpongeBob (older SpongeBob, not newer SpongeBob), Chowder, Regular Show, and Last Airbender are shows that are still great when kids get older because the target demographic is not too hyperfocused.
Does this always work? No, as a lot of shows should focus on either just kids or just adults. But if you want your show to be remembered fondly through nostalgia, and equally cherished through reruns while older, then "elevated" writing is a good approach.
@@howardbaxter2514 : Another place where this elevated writing worked is the old Warner Brothers and MGM cartoons from the 40's and 50's. Watch the old Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, Tom and Jerry, and Droopy Dog cartoons, as well as others of that era that were "one shots". (ex. "Red Hot Riding Hood") The jokes and gags were often for both adults and kids since they were usually shown before movies.
@@howardbaxter2514 I also gotta put The Clone Wars on that list. Even when the episodes were dealing with shit like corruption, filibusters, and the military-industrial complex it was still entertaining as fuck.
@@marksebree5218 can't forget about Animaniacs.
Strong agree
Candace: accidentally became a platypus
Phineas and ferb: *u n c o n c e r n e d*
Maybe they where the original Paul brothers 🤔🤔
(I'm sorry)
"Aren't you a little young to be so unconcerned?"
"Who even cares, man?"
i fuckin lmao bruh tht sounds so dark like they just psychopaths and we all wanted to be like them and do all these crazy things. shit funny though
@@redmilk256 n o.
Literally repeating a joke in the video. And gets 500 thumbs up. Because it’s in greentext. You people are ridiculous.
This show made me realize that this is not like other cartoons. It can still be relevant even when you get a little older. Other cartoons, when you re-watch them, you can see the difference in how you see them before and now. The magic and idea that the cartoon is great gradually disappear, and that it is not how you remember it. But this... it brings you joy and childhood, the nostalgia you get from just a cartoon.
Phineas and Ferb is a masterpiece, I'm glad you were able to explain that clearly
“Ain’t got rhythm” was one of my favorite songs as a child and it’s still a killer song
Justin K watch ain’t got rhythm but he actually dosent have rhythm
You have every right to love that song. It even won an Emmy Award!
Gitchee gitchee goo
Busted and Squirrels in my pants also had no business being as good as they are.
Busted is a fan favorite
"There's a platypus controlling me" still slaps
TristanTEC 🐿 👖
And I just can't stop
What about S.I.M.P
@Some Art Kid god the lofi slaaaaaaps
There's a platypus controlling me, it's underneath the table. Oh, I see, a platypus is a metaphor for whatever's getting us down. The government's a platypus!
It's crazy to think that this show have tons of great original songs better than most actual songs nowadays. The best part is, the creators wrote it less than an hour and finish the whole thing in just one day, the recording, the sound, the instrumental of it, and more. It's such a masterpiece of an animated show
The remarkable thing in this show was how well the characters are written- Candace is the ultimate narc when it comes to her brothers, the biggest simp when it comes to Jeremy and a headache for her Mom in most episodes because her brothers' schemes are never caught - yet, the show doesn't go overboard and villanize her. Infact, in a lot of episodes Phineas and Ferb start their project for the day based on what Candace is going through - like the Monster Truck episode. Her trials and tribulations, which are several, are also a source of humour in the show, like when she accidentally turns into a mummy or the Black Knight.
Phineas and Ferb are intelligent, creative and despite being different when it comes to personality traits and behaviour, they work well together. Phineas is of course a great character with his leadership skills, optimistic outlook on life and fearless attitude but I also really like how they portrayed Ferb. He is mostly silent, but when he does speak, you still find yourself chuckling. Their parents are well read, pleasant people who are always busy about something. And that makes sense, considering the way their kids behave.
Coming to Perry and Doofenshmirtz, the unique thing in their relationship is a common sense of courtesy and respect, even when they're fighting. Like how Perry helps set up Vanessa's party or how Perry borrows Norm one night and the evil scientist is like "Sure". Their enmity is both hilarious and absurd but as you mentioned above, grounded by a structure that remains the same throughout.
That library song is musically superior to most of the songs that are created today
Kanishk Goel so your saying that you don’t have rhythm
God, i still remember the full song Fabulous
No lie I play that at work on my headphones from time to time.

For real
"Aren't you young to be doing something like this."
"Yes, yes i am."
When I was watching this show growing up I never noticed that they created a new song for each episode. That’s crazy!
I have to say I have to give dan and jeff props for staying commited to the project and kept trying to pitch it after being told no so many times I have to say im all for believing in your ideas but I don't know if I would of done the same thing
The only impossible thing is how Phineas put on his shirt
He doesn’t put it on he was born with it over time it has fused with his skin
Fabric and flesh combined...
Theres a really tiny hidden zipper somewhere on there
secret zippers
If I remember correctly the top of his shirt stretches .
Probably the same way Arnold does.
This show made me laugh so many times but probably my favorite is when Doof was in the robot dragon and he says but my robot breathes fi ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, as the fire engulfs him as well. Then when that's over he casually calls it a stupid design. So amazing
the bg music at 8:45 and his style of narration reminds me of mark rober
Do y’all remember “Busted”? that songs SLAPS
On god 😂
Yess, busted, Betty bongos, squirrels in my pants, I ain’t got rhythm, sooo many more that I just can’t remember 😔. I guess it’s time to watch the “phineas and Ferb to ten musical count down” episode -may as well rewatch the whole show well I’m at it.
AND WHEN I DO, YOU’RE GONNA BE BUSTED
i was so gay for vanessa as a small 8 year old tbh
