Phineas and Ferb- talkback

Continuing the Creddie legacy
It's a kinda cute show in the tradition of The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and Hey Arnold!, since of the creators was formerly a director for Hey Arnold!, who is Dan Povenmire. the other was a newcomer, Jeff Marsh (I think he did something else before that.. or was it?)

oh well, to learn more of the show, courtesy of Wikipedia:

Phineas (Vincent Martella) and Ferb (Thomas Sangster) are two creative, open-minded, and kindhearted brothers who live with their older sister Candace (Ashley Tisdale), mom Linda (Caroline Rhea), a former pop star, and dad Lawrence (Richard O'Brien). Though they appear to be stepbrothers there is no evidence to support this, as in one episode it shows the parents dating as teens suggesting neither was ever divorced. The brothers find themselves dissatisfied with just spending their summer vacation outside of school, so they pull off unbelievable and often outlandish stunts (i.e. visiting the moon, building a roller coaster, entering a race car competition, giving a monkey a shower etc.) in order to make their summer more exciting. Their sister, Candace, is aware of their activities and tries to tell their mom so it can be put to an end (mostly out of jealousy that she wouldn’t be able to get away with the same acts). However, their actions are always covered up, due to the subplots of the family's pet platypus Perry being a secret agent (named "Agent P")! that fights an evil scientist named Dr. Doofenshmirtz, by coincidence, leaving behind no evidence of their daily activities. This causes their mother to question Candace’s sanity when she tries to prove what her brothers are doing. It is possible that the boys don’t care about their actions (which don’t cause any harm), as they occasionally ask their mother if she saw their handiwork.

Also, this show is into doing a musical number. Each episode has a number. There's one song in every episode except for:

"Dude We're Getting the Band Back Together": 5 songs (including one at the credits)
"It's About Time": 2 songs about the tragedy between Dr. Doofenshmirtz and Perry the Platypus
"Lights, Candace, Action": Does not have a song at all
"Boyfriend From 27,000 B.C.": Does not have a song at all

And The show itself has a "Arnold" feel in both story and characters, esp. Candace who resembles both Helga and Olga Pataki from Hey Arnold!

what do you guys think?

I love this show. a perfect combination of Calvin & Hobbes and Pinky & the brain.
My new favorite line is from the spoiler for the new episodes with the giant ren faire robots.
"Well that was a stupid design."
