Saturday Night Showcase> Phineas And Ferb’s First Episode

Eh, why not?

I never really got into Phineas & Ferb. Not that I have anything against the show. I certainly understand it’s fanbase, I did like the Star Wars parody, the multiverse TV movie, and crossover with Milo Murphy’s Law (a show I wouldn’t mind seeing make a comeback), but the show itself just never clicked with me whenever I tried to watch it. I can’t say I know why specifically, but it just didn’t work. Even the Marvel hero crossover I’m kind of neutral on.

Still, with a returning season recently announced on Disney Channel and Disney Plus (can’t wait to see how they screw this one up), and since I stumbled on it looking for a Saturday Night Showcase entry, posting the first episode of the original series might be fun. The original aired on Disney XD, and it’s their YouTube channel this is coming from. Some of you might not have seen the original show but heard about it, and others might want a refresher since the series has been off the air for a few years outside of the Milo Murphy’s Law crossover where Doctor Doofenshmirtz started a path of reforming I guess the returning show will undo. Pity, but I can see why. Doof’s antics with Perry The Platypus/Agent P was the only part of the show I had any interest in.

For those of you who somehow missed the whole experience, Phineas and Ferb are stepbrothers who invent the craziest things to help them and their friends get over summer vacation. These are somehow really big and potentially dangerous things, which is why Phineas’ biological sister, Candice, keeps trying to bust them to her mom, but…well, let’s not tell you everything. “Rollercoaster” is the first episode, as the boys create a rollercoaster in their backyard. “Candace Loses Her Head” finishes the episode as she has a birthday and the boys have a rather unusual present for her.

Even I wasn’t ready for Phineas to have a less nasally voice than he’s usually given. I guess they were still trying to find his proper voice. Ferb rarely talks and Perry/Agent P never talks, so they were easy. 😀 Enjoy!
