{edih}}}Phineas and Ferb is an American animated musical-comedy television series created by Dan Povenmire and Jeff “Swampy” Marsh that aired on Disney Channel and Disney XD for four seasons between 2007 and 2015. The series follows stepbrothers Phineas Flynn and Ferb Fletcher during summer vacation. Every day, the boys undertake the construction of a grand project, or embark on a spectacular adventure, to make the most of their time on vacation. This annoys their controlling older sister, Candace, who frequently tries to expose their schemes to her and Phineas’s mother. The series follows a standard plot system; running gags occur in every episode.Povenmire and Marsh conceived the characters while working together on animated programs The Simpsons and Rocko’s Modern Life in the 1990s, and were inspired by the summers of their own childhoods. They developed the series together and pitched it to networks for 16 years before successfully selling it to The Walt Disney Company. Phineas and Ferb is produced by Disney Television Animation, and was originally broadcast as a one-episode preview on August 17, 2007, following the premiere of the made-for-television film High School Musical 2. It again previewed on September 28, 2007, and officially premiered on Disney Channel on February 1, 2008. The series originally concluded on June 12, 2015, before two new seasons were ordered in January 2023.Phineas and Ferb is one of Disney Channel’s most successful animated franchises. It received high viewership in the United States on cable television and influenced the development of merchandise, a live tour, spin-offs and movies. A made-for-television film, (Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Across the 2nd Dimension), aired in 2011, while a follow-up titled (Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Candace Against the Universe) was released on Disney+ in 2020. Critics praised the writing and humor of the show, citing its appeal to a wide range of ages. Others criticized its lack of originality and formulaic approach. The series won a Daytime Emmy Award in 2010 for Outstanding Writing in Animation, and won several Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation.

Development

Early inspirations

File:Downtown Mobile 2008 01.jpg|thumb|left|Povenmire drew inspiration for the show from his boyhood in Mobile, AlabamaMobile, AlabamaDan Povenmire attributes the show’s genesis to his childhood in Mobile, Alabama, where his mother told him to never waste a day of summer. To occupy himself, Povenmire undertook projects such as hole-digging and home movie-making. Povenmire recalled, “My mom let me drape black material all the way across one end of our living room to use as a space field. I would hang little models of spaceships for these little movies I made with a Super 8 camera.“AV MEDIA, Original Pitch By Dan Povenmire, DVD, Disney DVD, 2008, Dan Povenmire, Jeff “Swampy” Marsh, WEB, Brantley, Mark, May 13, 2008, Disney animator sees summers in Mobile as inspiration,blog.al.com/entertainment-press-register/2008/05/disney_animator_sees_summers_i.html#more, live,blog.al.com/entertainment-press-register/2008/05/disney_animator_sees_summers_i.html#more," title="web.archive.org/web/20120303062635blog.al.com/entertainment-press-register/2008/05/disney_animator_sees_summers_i.html#more,">web.archive.org/web/20120303062635blog.al.com/entertainment-press-register/2008/05/disney_animator_sees_summers_i.html#more, March 3, 2012, July 3, 2009, Alabama press, He was an artistic prodigy and displayed his very detailed drawings at art shows. Marsh was raised in a large, blended family. As with Povenmire, Marsh spent his summers exploring and taking part in various activities to have fun.

Conception

File:Phineas original sketch.jpg|thumb|Drawn on butcher paperbutcher paperWhile attending the University of Southern California, Povenmire started a daily comic strip called Life Is a Fish, and received money from the sale of its related merchandise. He eventually dropped out and started drawing people on street corners to make a living, until he was finally called by Tommy Chong to work on a short bit of animation in the film Far Out Man. Povenmire began to take up animation professionally, working on shows such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.WEB, Perez, Lauren, May 1, 2008, USC dropout makes it big in animation,media.www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2008/05/01/Lifestyle/Usc-Dropout.Makes.It.Big.In.Animation-3360022.shtml, dead,media.www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2008/05/01/Lifestyle/Usc-Dropout.Makes.It.Big.In.Animation-3360022.shtml," title="archive.today/20080822094907media.www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2008/05/01/Lifestyle/Usc-Dropout.Makes.It.Big.In.Animation-3360022.shtml,">archive.today/20080822094907media.www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2008/05/01/Lifestyle/Usc-Dropout.Makes.It.Big.In.Animation-3360022.shtml, August 22, 2008, March 5, 2017, Daily Trojan, Marsh had become a vice president of sales and marketing for a computer company until he “freaked out” and decided to quit. His friend helped him put together a portfolio and enter the animation business.Povenmire and Marsh started working across from each other as layout artists on The Simpsons. The two bonded over mutual tastes in humor and music, becoming fast friends. They continued their working relationship as a writing team on the Nickelodeon series Rocko’s Modern Life, where they conceived the idea for their own series. While eating dinner at a Wild Thyme restaurant in South Pasadena, Povenmire drew a quick sketch of a “triangle kid” on butcher paper.WEB, Strike, Joe, February 1, 2008, From Swampy & Dan Emerges Phineas and Ferb”, Page 3.,www.awn.com/articles/production/swampy-dan-emerges-iphineas-and-ferbi/page/3, dead,www.awn.com/articles/production/swampy-dan-emerges-iphineas-and-ferbi/page/3," title="web.archive.org/web/20100901104357www.awn.com/articles/production/swampy-dan-emerges-iphineas-and-ferbi/page/3,">web.archive.org/web/20100901104357www.awn.com/articles/production/swampy-dan-emerges-iphineas-and-ferbi/page/3, September 1, 2010, August 26, 2009, Animation World Magazine, He tore it out and called Marsh that night to report, “Hey, I think we have our show.” The triangle doodle sparked rapid development of characters and designs. Povenmire decided that his sketch “looked like a Phineas,” and named Ferb after a friend who “owns more tools than anyone in the world.” The creators based their character designs on angular shapes in homage to Tex Avery, an animator and director for MGM and Warner Bros., adding geometric shapes to the backgrounds for continuity.

Pitching and pickup

File:Disney Channel HQ.jpg|thumb|upright=.764|right|Disney Channel was the first network to give the series a chance, though initially declined when Dan PovenmireDan PovenmireThe writing duo’s early attempts to pitch the show failed and, though they remained committed to the concept, Povenmire and Marsh began to drift apart after their work on Rocko’s. Marsh moved to London and worked on shows including Postman Pat and Bounty Hamster. Povenmire began working on the primetime Fox series Family Guy and the Nickelodeon series SpongeBob SquarePants, always carrying a Phineas and Ferb portfolio for convenient pitching to networks such as Cartoon Network and Fox Kids. The networks passed on the show, believing the series’ premise was too complex to succeed.Povenmire persisted and again pitched the series to Nickelodeon, where it was considered by high-level executives but rejected once more as overly complicated. Then, after 16 years of trying, Povenmire landed a pitch with Disney. The network did not immediately accept the show, but told Povenmire that it would keep the packet. Povenmire assumed that this had meant an end to negotiations, aware that the phrase usually “means they throw it in the trash later.” Disney then surprised him by accepting. Said Povenmire, “Disney was the first to say, ‘Let’s see if you can do it in 11 minutes.’ We did it in the pilot and they said, ‘Let’s see if you can do it for 26 episodes.{{’“}}Povenmire was initially worried that his work on Family Guy (an adult show known for its lowbrow humor) would concern Disney, which markets its fare primarily to families. However, Disney Channel senior vice president of original series Adam Bonnett was a Family Guy fan who appreciated Povenmire’s connection to the show and received his pitch well.In 2006, after the Disney Channel had accepted the show, Povenmire and Marsh turned their attention to the company’s overseas executives. Instead of penning a normal script, the two drew out storyboards and played them in a reel. Povenmire voiced over the reel with his dialogue and added sound effects. This novel approach secured the executives’ support.

Production

Writing style

File:Dan Povenmire and Swampy Marsh (2009).jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|Phineas and Ferb co-creators Dan Povenmire and Jeff “Swampy” MarshJeff “Swampy” MarshThe show uses four main writers to devise story ideas according to “strict guidelines”, such as that the boys’ schemes never appear to be “magical”. Stories are reviewed at weekly sessions on a Monday, then simultaneously scripted and storyboarded. A very rough design is built before the storyboard, featuring little more than suggested scenes and dialogue, is drafted; the writers then gather for a “play-by-play” walkthrough of the storyboard in front of the whole crew, whose reactions to the jokes are assessed before rewrites are made.WEB, April 18, 2009, ‘Rocko’ writers return to TV with ‘Phineas and Ferb’,readingeagle.com/article.aspx?id=134287, dead,readingeagle.com/article.aspx?id=134287," title="web.archive.org/web/20120319151740readingeagle.com/article.aspx?id=134287,">web.archive.org/web/20120319151740readingeagle.com/article.aspx?id=134287, March 19, 2012, August 26, 2009, Reading Eagle, The writers also include running gags in every episode, which are generally lines spoken by characters.WEB, Holman, Curt, May 14, 2009, “Phineas and Ferb” trails after the boys of summer,blogs.creativeloafing.com/culturesurfing/2009/05/14/phineas-ferb-trails-after-the-boys-of-summer/, dead,blogs.creativeloafing.com/culturesurfing/2009/05/14/phineas-ferb-trails-after-the-boys-of-summer/," title="web.archive.org/web/20090922043431blogs.creativeloafing.com/culturesurfing/2009/05/14/phineas-ferb-trails-after-the-boys-of-summer/,">web.archive.org/web/20090922043431blogs.creativeloafing.com/culturesurfing/2009/05/14/phineas-ferb-trails-after-the-boys-of-summer/, September 22, 2009, August 26, 2009, Creating Loafing, Almost every episode is split into two 11-minute segments.WEB, Zahed, Ramin, July 16, 2009, Phineas and Ferb Creators Talk About Emmy Nom!,www.animationmagazine.net/article/10314, live,www.animationmagazine.net/article/10314," title="web.archive.org/web/20090719211400www.animationmagazine.net/article/10314,">web.archive.org/web/20090719211400www.animationmagazine.net/article/10314, July 19, 2009, August 18, 2009, Animation Magazine, Dan Povenmire admitted that the “a-plot” of each episode, the one following Phineas and Ferb’s inventions, is not actually a plot, but instead the setting, with the actual plot being Candace, Perry and Dr. Doofenshmirtz’s story, “The essence of story is that the characters are changed by what happens to them.

Povenmire says of this inclusion, “There’s a little bit of Tex Avery in there-he had that very graphic style [in his later cartoons].” Triangles are featured as an easter egg in the background of every episode, sometimes in trees or buildings.(File:PhineasFerbPaint designs.jpg|thumb|left|The stages of development for a scene during the opening theme, from the original draft (top) to the final design (bottom). The top appears briefly in the Season 1 theme.)Bright colors are also a prominent element of the animation. Marsh elaborates, “The idea at the end of the day was candy. One of the things that I think works so well is that the characters are so bright and candy-colored and our backgrounds are a much more realistic depiction of the world: the soft green of the grass, the natural woods for the fence.

Music

The series is known for its original songs that appear in almost every episode since the first-season “Flop Starz”.

Video games

In 2009, Disney licensed a Nintendo DS video game titled Phineas and Ferb. The game’s story follows the title characters as they try to build a roller coaster. The player controls Phineas, Ferb and occasionally Perry the Platypus. Phineas scavenges for spare parts for the roller coaster while Ferb fixes various objects around town, gaining access to new areas as a result. Ferb can also construct new parts of the coaster and its vehicle-themed carts. Each activity features a short mini-game.WEB, Phineas and Ferb :: DS Game Review,www.kidzworld.com/article/16586-phineas-and-ferb-ds-game-review, live,www.kidzworld.com/article/16586-phineas-and-ferb-ds-game-review," title="web.archive.org/web/20090504091751www.kidzworld.com/article/16586-phineas-and-ferb-ds-game-review,">web.archive.org/web/20090504091751www.kidzworld.com/article/16586-phineas-and-ferb-ds-game-review, May 4, 2009, May 2, 2009, Kidzworld, WEB, Phineas and Ferb—Nintendo DS,ds.gamespy.com/nintendo-ds/phineas-and-ferb, live,ds.gamespy.com/nintendo-ds/phineas-and-ferb/," title="web.archive.org/web/20090426074514ds.gamespy.com/nintendo-ds/phineas-and-ferb/,">web.archive.org/web/20090426074514ds.gamespy.com/nintendo-ds/phineas-and-ferb/, April 26, 2009, June 23, 2009, GameSpy, WEB, Phineas and Ferb Video Game,www.gametrailers.com/game/phineas-and-ferb/11032, live,www.gametrailers.com/game/phineas-and-ferb/11032," title="web.archive.org/web/20090525135942www.gametrailers.com/game/phineas-and-ferb/11032,">web.archive.org/web/20090525135942www.gametrailers.com/game/phineas-and-ferb/11032, May 25, 2009, June 23, 2009, Game Trailers, The game was well-received and garners a 76.67% on GameRankings.WEB, Phineas and Ferb for the DS,www.gamerankings.com/DS/955460-phineas-and-ferb/index.html, live,www.gamerankings.com/ds/955460-phineas-and-ferb/index.html," title="web.archive.org/web/20091223230827www.gamerankings.com/ds/955460-phineas-and-ferb/index.html,">web.archive.org/web/20091223230827www.gamerankings.com/ds/955460-phineas-and-ferb/index.html, December 23, 2009, September 21, 2009, Game Rankings, A sequel entitled (Phineas and Ferb: Ride Again) was released on September 14, 2010.MAGAZINE, Blum, Matt, September 18, 2009, Phineas and Ferb: A Sci-Fi Episode, a Soundtrack Album, and an Interview!,www.wired.com/geekdad/2009/09/phineas-and-ferb-interview/, dead, Wired (magazine), Wired,www.wired.com/geekdad/2009/09/phineas-and-ferb-interview," title="web.archive.org/web/20090923000858www.wired.com/geekdad/2009/09/phineas-and-ferb-interview,">web.archive.org/web/20090923000858www.wired.com/geekdad/2009/09/phineas-and-ferb-interview, September 23, 2009, September 20, 2009, Another game, Phineas and Ferb: Across the Second Dimension, was released for the Wii and PlayStation 3 platforms in 2011.WEB, High Impact Games,www.highimpactgames.com/news.html, live,www.highimpactgames.com/news.html," title="web.archive.org/web/20191221062928www.highimpactgames.com/news.html,">web.archive.org/web/20191221062928www.highimpactgames.com/news.html, December 21, 2019, November 25, 2011, High Impact Games, In 2012, Walt Disney World opened an interactive game based on the series at Epcot, titled Agent P’s World Showcase Adventure, which centered around Perry and Dr. Doofenshmirtz, based on the previous attraction Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure.WEB, July 5, 2012, Disney World: Agent P at Disney World’s Epcot,www.orlandosentinel.com/the-daily-disney/os-dewayne-bevil-disney-agent-p-20120705,0,6956004.column, dead,www.orlandosentinel.com/the-daily-disney/os-dewayne-bevil-disney-agent-p-20120705,0,6956004.column," title="web.archive.org/web/20120909192652www.orlandosentinel.com/the-daily-disney/os-dewayne-bevil-disney-agent-p-20120705,0,6956004.column,">web.archive.org/web/20120909192652www.orlandosentinel.com/the-daily-disney/os-dewayne-bevil-disney-agent-p-20120705,0,6956004.column, September 9, 2012, November 28, 2012, Orlando Sentinel, Also in 2012, Disney Mobile launched a mobile game titled Where’s My Perry? for iOS and Android.

Live tour

Phineas and Ferb: The Best LIVE Tour Ever was a touring two-act adaptation of the TV show. A projection system played video in the same style as the TV show on the rear of the stage; the characters were first introduced there in their cartoon forms, but then used a backyard slide that continued into a physical slide, out of which the live cast members emerged into the real world. The performers wore prosthetics to make their characters resemble their cartoon counterparts—mostly head pieces, but a full body suit in the cases of Buford and Perry.WEB, ‘Phineas and Ferb: The Best Live Tour Ever!’ coming to Columbus,www.thisweeknews.com/content/stories/2011/11/02/disney-live.html, live,www.thisweeknews.com/content/stories/2011/11/02/disney-live.html," title="web.archive.org/web/20120106013525www.thisweeknews.com/content/stories/2011/11/02/disney-live.html,">web.archive.org/web/20120106013525www.thisweeknews.com/content/stories/2011/11/02/disney-live.html, January 6, 2012, July 15, 2012, thisweeknews.com, The 2011–2012 season of the tour began on August 21, 2011, in Lakeland, Florida and ended on April 22, 2012, in East Rutherford, New Jersey.WEB, Welcome to Disney’s Phineas and Ferb LIVE!,disney.go.com/disneylive/phineas-and-ferb-on-tour/, dead,disney.go.com/disneylive/phineas-and-ferb-on-tour/," title="web.archive.org/web/20120219045141disney.go.com/disneylive/phineas-and-ferb-on-tour/,">web.archive.org/web/20120219045141disney.go.com/disneylive/phineas-and-ferb-on-tour/, February 19, 2012, February 23, 2012, Disney, The 2012–2013 season began on August 23, 2012, in Wheeling, West Virginia and ran until February 18, 2013, in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
