Johnny Test

Does anyone really hate this show just because it's from Canada? Would this show be any better if it didn't seem like a rip-off of Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo/Quest, or The Powerpuff Girls if those shows didn't exist? Some people like it because this show reminds them of those shows and I have to give these people credit if they wanted to reinvent them for a new generation. I think Johnny Test is a very funny character and he's not that different from Ed, Edd, 'n' Eddy's Eddy or FHFIF's Bloo so there's no reason to hate him if you don't hate them. Dukey is also cool and my mom's most favorite characters are those 2 girl scientists, Susan and Mary, who even have the same voice actors as Gilda and Rainbow Dash. Even if you think this show is bad, there are plenty of cartoons produced even worse, like Problem Solverz or Breadwinners or Newborn Cuties. This is Teletoon's wonderful combination of the crazy inventions from Dexter's Laboratory, the egotistical dumb blond male protagonist from Johnny Bravo, and the variety of supervillains to fight from The Powerpuff Girls, so it's no wonder Cartoon Network actually wanted to air this show. If you weren't around for those shows back in the 1990s, you can get what's great about them for this show! Tell me one reason why I shouldn't like this show that makes it any worse, and be specific enough about it for me to understand.

I used to watch this when I was 8, and I loved it for some reason. Now when I look back at it, I don't know how and why it lasted that long. I would give it 1 star, but since it gives me good memories when I was younger, I will be generous and give it 4 more stars.

Certainly not a GREAT cartoon, or even a good one. But....I can't say I hated this one. I really enjoyed it as a kid. Sure the characters were stupid, the plots were unoriginal, and the animation was very mediocre. But, there was something charming about it. It's stupidity and absurdness was what made me enjoy it as a kid. It doesn't hold up too well, but there are certain moments of this show I genuinely liked. One such episode was when a beekeeper villain tried to get rid of all candy for his healthier candy bar, and at the end of the episode Johnny and his pals stopped trying to defeat him. Instead they talked it out and came to an agreement that I thought was a very satisfying conclusion to the episode. Other episodes weren't so great, but I tend to remember the better ones. The Johnny X episodes are so ridiculously dumb, highlighted by "Power Poots" and such. But BOOOYYY did I like them as a kid, and I don't really remember why exactly. It was like a crossover with all the goofy villains of the show and I genuinely liked that. The 5th episode of this saga had a pretty sad ending that choked me up as a kid, I definitely recommend seeing it for yourself as it was one of the best in the series (by best, I mean an objective 8/10. Still a dumb episode, but charming).

My review is just here to balance out the overly negative and positive ones that make up the majority. I genuinely though this show was ok. Not good, but not bad. Just ok. I can think of shows that were much MUCH worse than this one for many reasons......

This show isnt all bad, some people hate it, personally i like it. sometimes the jokes are too repetitive, but ill still laugh though. to all the johnny test haters out there, go jump off a bridge.

This is like plenty of cheap shows from the 2000s and 2010s, "Teen Titans Go, Powerpuff Girls," something to entertain kids, but can become boring and infuriating, but unlike those shows, this holds up very well. There is plenty of stuff in it that's easy to hate, but there's a charm within that's so great, it just overpowers everything.
