The Fairly OddParents

This is a funny, pleasant TV series and easy to find on TV. Some episodes bother me a lot yet I REALLY like others. One of my favourite episodes is one with a goat called Chompy. One of my least favourites is an episode straight after about being exactly the same.

The basic plot of each episode is that a boy named Timmy Turner has a wish granted from his "fairy godparents". In each episode, he discovers why the wish doesn't work...

I recommend this TV series for people who like funny things, kid's TV series, boys and fantasy. Enjoy!

P.S I agree with you WWF Deadman Undertaker that this show is pretty nasty. Vicky, Timmy's babysitter is very mean to Timmy. Also there are a lot of mean jokes to particular different people (people who aren't normal).

P.P.S Lunatroid, I too am annoyed that Wanda is now considered boring because she cares for others.

Fairly Odd Parents has grown to be one of my favorite cartoons.Yes,I'm 14 but no one ever said I was too old for cartoons.

This show is about a 10-year-old kid who wears a silly pink hat named Timmy,an out-going kid with no common sense and a short attention span.He deals with being a loser at school,not being able to spend as much quality time with his parents and his worst enemy and fear of all (duh,duh,duh)Vicky,his evil 16-year-old babysitter.For poor Timmy Turner,he has no control over his life until one day two magical creatures come into his life and explain to Timmy that they're his new fairy godparents who can grant him unlimited wishes.Oh wait,there's a catch,along with his fairy godparents come a rule book known as "Da Rules" which limit him to most wishes.From that day on,Timmy makes bigger wishes which lead to bigger adventures that often lead him into trouble.However,while his fairy godparents have to grant the wishes,they love him like their own child and act as his mentors,well one of them at least.There's Wanda,the smart and bossy pink-haired godparent who often gives Timmy guidance.There's also her husband Cosmo,the dim-witted yet hilarious godparent who unlike his wife,leads Timmy into awesome but often dangerous adventures and while Wanda is the common sense of the trio,he's the comic relief.With just a spin of their wands,Timmy takes another step to great adventures as well as good lessons.

Recently,I don't think most of the new episodes have been doing so well but I absolutely love the classic episodes such as "A Wish Too Far","Boys in Band and many more.Even though I love every character on this show,Timmy is most likely my favorite character because even if he can be selfish,he's sympathetic and considerate of others.He's also your typical 10-year-old who wishes for what any kid would want.What I love about this show is the humor,the eventual spoofs,some running gags,the characters and the fact that everyone on this show is a complete idiot.However,what I love more are the relationships in this show.I love what Timmy has between his parents as well as his fairy godparents.I saw AbraCatrasphe (sp) and I thought it was cute how Timmy said he loved Wanda as much as Cosmo.I also liked how Timmy confessed about his godparents and Wanda and Cosmo wouldn't go because they loved Timmy.So despite most goofs and the recent downhill episodes,I love this show and I want to rate it a 7/10.

No show has taken the phrase "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a villain" so literally as Fairly OddParents has. I grew up with this show, and it was great! But personally, I really think it should've ended at the hour long special "Channel Chasers". Would've been a PERFECT finale to what was a great show. But no....they had to keep going. It didn't go downhill immediately, but come season 6 and 7, it was becoming noticeable. By season 9, the show had dropped MASSIVELY in quality and was barely watchable. But season 10.....I saw clips from season 10 episodes and never felt so utterly saddened by a drop in quality. The characters were no longer funny and witty, they were just annoying. The jokes were no longer funny, and Chloe......CHLOE!!!!! Need I say more??? But it gets worse. The animation went to flash and MY GOD.....it just looked awful. The show became a shell of its former self until it finally went out with a whimper in 2017. No one even knew it ended. It died quietly as the people behind it stopped caring about its quality, before they just gave up and for better use of words "turned off its life support......."

If that wasn't bad enough, there's even worse news.

Butch Hartman, the man who created the show and made it one of the best nicktoons of its time literally BECAME A VILLAIN. I wish I was kidding, but nope here we are in 2019. He has created a little something called "Oaxis" which in his words, is said to be a "family friendly streaming service". But in reality, it's just a scam. Butch Hartman created a kickstarter back in 2018 and begged his YouTube fanbase to back it. Somehow it reached its goal, and a year later there is absolutely nothing to show for it. He insists he will make it reality, but there is nothing to show.......BUT HE IS ASKING FOR MORE MONEY GOLLY GEE AIN'T THAT JUST GREAT??!!

Shame on you Butch. You may be a talented artist but you are no longer a good person. If you want to fix this, at least start by being honest with your fans. You know what you're doing is wrong, but you still continue to push it for the sake of your ego and your clout. You really became a villain, and it's utterly sad to see what you've become.

Rest easy Fairly OddParents, and Butch......it's never too late to do the right thing. Not that this will change your mind, but I'm just saying because it's true. I hope you make the right choices.........

I must say, I'm shocked at how much bashing this show tends to get on this site. Personally, I love it! (Sure, a few of the new episodes are kinda...eh) Aside from Spongebob, this show is the pure definition of comedy and one the only one that keeps me, and a lot of other people, tuned in to the Nick channel in the first place.

The basic plot is that Timmy Turner is a lonely, misunderstood ten-year-old boy who must deal with more than any boy his age should handle.... Ever. So out of sympathy, he is given Cosmo and Wanda, two bumbling fairies for personal servitude and company from Fairy World. But even with the two fairies at his side to help him 24/7, he quickly learns life is full of complications that even magic can't fix.

One of the reasons this show does so well is the large cast of characters. Everyone on the show gets a good laugh from me and that's what's important. Timmy's father, for example, is a clumsy, dense man and always undertaking some stupid task to get back at the... Dinklebergs.... Look up the word "evil" in the dictionary and you'll see a mug shot of Vicky, Timmy's babysitter, who cares only about money, the pain of a child, and... well, money.

Another reason of this show's success are the plots themselves. To get through life's challenges, Timmy uses his fairies' magic to the advantage. But, of course, nothing ever works out right. One reason is because of the rules added to the power of magic. After all, without restrictions on what Timmy could do, this show would be over in a snap. Also, each episode constantly throws in joke after joke after joke and, coupled with the quick animation and scene switching, it rarely slows down on its humor.

Now onto the heart of this wonderful show: the fairies. A regular comic pair. Wanda is sensible and smart, totally opposite of the purile idiot known as Cosmo. Their interactions with each other are often rib-cracking, especially since Cosmo is constantly getting on her nerves to no end. Adding to the fact that they are wed can ensure worse punishment for Cosmo in the end. They're always trying to work together as a team (a horribly dysfunctional one) and help Timmy, but you can always be sure Cosmo will add some "fun" along the way.

For real people, I can see nothing wrong with this show. Some of the reasons stated on here for its atrocity are total non-sense, such as the animation is bad or the characters all act dumb. Hello, it's a comedy. The characters act like that for a reason. As for the animation, there is worse, such as some of the things on Cartoon Network. (Dexter's Lab, PPG) It, and other shows like it, is actually a revival and tribute of an old style in the 30s and 40s that relied on an abstract look for uniqueness, so it had few details and the characters looked flat. And besides, so what if there's little detail and such? Is that really important in an animated comedy?

Alright, enough personal ranting for one day. Back to business. This show is absolutely wonderful. Good, quick humor, a huge and colorful cast of characters coupled with the premise of a boy with (nearly) infinite magical powers make this a must-see show for all. If you've barred this show from your schedule of "Must-Watches," at least give it a good chance. You may be extremely happy with the result.

This show has to be one of the the most ridiculously hilarious shows on tv. It serves a great purpose as something to stimulate the innerchild. It has a countless amount of great humor that I can appreciate, as well as my 12 and 4 year old cousins. While they may not understand a ghostbusters joke thrown in, I do and I recognize that this show is for everyone. Another good show, but not a funny is Dexter's Laboratory.
