I miss this version of them Timmy the kind -hearted but average kid, Wanda the cheerful godmother, Cosmo the Charming godfather and Vicky the somewhat neutral selfish teenager.
Now in the show Timmy is a selfish and irredeemable little twat, Wanda is a naggy hoe, Cosmo is an extreme dumbass, and Vicky is an insanely evil bitch for no reason.
I remember them saying they wanted to have him sound like a used car salesman, he was street smart while Wanda was book smart, during a lot of season 1 that’s the cosmo we got, but during production of the show they wanted cosmo to be less smart, but this voice wasn’t good for that
I liked the older dynamic where Wanda was good at spells and remembering Da Rules but socially inept, and Cosmo was bad with spells but able to talk/charisma his way through problems. It meant they each were good for different jokes
Plus they were truly in love, unlike the later seasons of FOP where it seemed Cosmo hated being married and Wanda was passively aggressive about marrying Cosmo
@@share_accidental Another smart joke he made was when Vicky got sat on by a giant baby Wanda, and Cosmo said in a Gene Shallot look, "That's the first time the baby's ever sat on the sitter 🥸" Like holy smokes, that was clever 😄
Honestly this is just what naturally happens to the dumb trope characters. They start off silly and endearing, but over time they must constantly outperform their own stupidity to prove their role as the dumber character and eventually they revert to Neanderthals
actually,I've always thought cosmo was secretly smart,cause I've always said oh hey there's one of cosmo's extremely rare smart moments everytime I watch an episode XD but I do kinda remember the pilot episodes though,I was really little though but I do remember some of these
maybe someone already said this theory but watching all these parts, this is pre-eternal time stop wish episodes, then something happened along the way that Timmy realized and asked Cosmo to do the wish. Then Timmy made him wish he forgot he made that wish and when he did that, it messed with his head and we have the Cosmo we had in the series. But since he did sounded smart and responsible the process could have went Timmy made Cosmo dumb "for a game" > made the eternal 10 year old wish > "made Cosmo forget his this wish" > kept him dumb. IDK just pulling it out there

I hope this is what they are actually used for the reboot that's coming out. Or if it's coming out. Kind of shows on how much the characters have aged over timeor maybe making something more similar to that premise, instead of everything just being incredibly loud, for the sake of being loud, have a level headed child who knows what they're doing
back when cosmo actually sounded like a person, and they were a happy couple. the original cosmo and wanda complimented eachother perfectly. they really were 2 halves of a whole idiot, and they were as truly in love as gomez and morticia adams. Now they are an idiot and his put upon wife. just like peter and lois, or homer and marge, or goku and chichi, or archy bunker and edith, or any of the other "dumb husband, annoyed wife" combos that have infested tv shows for decades

Fairly Odd Parents started off as a group of shorts on Nickelodeon back in the 90’s. These shorts aired before Season 1 and were usually 7 minutes long.
I think like SpongeBob, some writers just think making characters stupid always equal funny. It’s kinda lazy imo. But what do I know..it’s just a kids show.
Seriously. The ferry odd parents made a giant turn when they were adding plot to the story of Timmy. Like holy shit the plot goes all over the place it's crazy. Then they keep adding colorful characters. To move the plot? Along it's it's it's bongers.😂😂😂
My head cannon is that Timmy sort of got worse over time, with an infinite source of wishes that can end up negating all consequences if you are clever enough (which he learns as the series progresses) and I can see why he ended up the way he did. Over 50 years of this and I have no doubt Cosmo and Wanda would take some sort of mental hit. Hence why they are starting to act a little bit closer to their older self in the new show. They are healing lmao
I really don’t have any idea why they change the series and characters for the worst. The first season of fairly odd parents even by today still has pretty entertaining Storylines, and really great jokes that’s executed perfectly. The series progress into a much more obnoxious territory. Cosmo goes from being fairly confident to overly high-pitched an overly stupid to the point where you feel dumb watching it.
This reminds me how in Invader Zim the Tallest, Red and Purple, were pretty much the same character early on. Then Red became the angry one and Purple became the stupid one.
It’s the fact that it feels like Cosmo has had 3 different voice actors but they are all the same person who is also Timmy’s father. I don’t like how his voice sounds now compared to the first two styles 😩
Best version of Cosmo, so many witty jokes they shouldn’t of made him an idiot. They should have made him a comedian. Instead he had the personality for it. It would’ve been the life of the show. Too bad we got the idiot with the raspy voice
Goes to show you that you hand nickelodeon or TV show they will fuck it up times 10 they’ve done it with every show that lasted long on their network SpongeBob fairly odd parents they’ve even fucked up shows that they just started before it aired like there is so many shows that would’ve been great if they just left it the fuck alone How do you screw something up that bad?
That Title Should be Renamed when Cosmo was Smart 🤓 not kinda Smart but Smart. It's too bad Nickelodeon doesn't play Oh yeah cartoons anymore like they use to cause some Fans really don't know that that was how Timmy had met Cosmo and Wanda
People tend to theorize that cosmo and the world became worse after Timmy’s wish because he had to lobotomize himself in order to go through with it all Others have stated that just being around Timmy and his wishes have negative effects mentally also And others say due to 50 years together cosmo just sort of has to reset time over and over again in order for holidays like Christmas to come again
I’ve been thinking the same thing about Cosmo. He was more charming and charismatic too. But just like Patrick Star, they made Cosmo too stupid. I don’t mind my characters being designed as an idiot like Ed from Ed Edd n’ Eddy, but there is a point where you can make an established character regress into an even bigger idiot.
Even within that show Eddy was never portrayed as a genius but I feel he was made to be dumber instead of impulsive as that show went on. You could justify it as he was a slacker in school or something but they portrayed him as barely smarter than Ed
Seeing the old version of them, I can’t help but think about Timmy TV. What if they latched onto Timmy since he had two godparents, one of which nearly destroyed fairyworld, but thought the “cast” was boring? Then, they magically tweaked the emotions and memories of Timmy, his parents and godparents, his babysitter, etc by showing the original show to a godkid while pretending it was fictional and tricking them into wishing the show was more interesting?
Yes it was, this is one of the 10 pilot episodes from “Oh Yeah! Cartoons”. Also known as season 0. You can a playlist on UA-cam with all the episodes of season 0

@Angie Reyes Yeah at least in FOP, they're original personalities were strong in S1-3 and occasionally showed up once or twice between S6-8.
Now in the show Timmy is a selfish and irredeemable little twat, Wanda is a naggy hoe, Cosmo is an extreme dumbass, and Vicky is an insanely evil bitch for no reason.

Why couldn't they keep Cosmo, Wanda, Timmy, Mr. & Mrs. Turner like this in he series?
