    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In the original show concept, Barbara Diffy was going to have a detachable head and a robotic body, which is why the character is wearing chokers and turtlenecks throughout the first season - to cover up where her head was supposed to detach. However, all scenes of this idea were cut out once the episodes began airing, despite clips being included in some of the early advertisements. This was because, at the time, Iraqi beheading videos were being circulated on the internet and Disney did not want to appear insensitive or mocking.

      When Phil and Keely's teacher is handing out a test, it can be seen that some of the tests are already marked with an "F".
    • Quotes

      Phil Diffy: I don't wanna be your girlfriend. I wanna be your *boy*friend.

      [stops startled and off Keely's equally surprised look]

      Phil Diffy: I mean, your friend... who's a boy. A guy. A guy friend.

      Keely Teslow: Why didn't you tell me?

      Phil Diffy: I didn't know how.

      Keely Teslow: Phil, you can tell me anything.

      [takes him by his shoulders]

      Keely Teslow: I'm your girlfriend. I, I, I mean... your friend who's a girl. A gal. A gal friend.

    A great, funny, Disney Channel Original Comedy.

    I was very impressed with Disney's newest show Phil of the Future. It gave new life to the Disney channel. Plus, it is very different from Lizzie Mcguire, Even Stevens, Thats so Raven Etc. If you think about it this is the only Disney channel show (with real people) that has a different plot than:

    "teens trying to find there place in life and survive the brutal life of jr high/high school."

    i mean the POTF plot is SO different than that. And i am SO glad its not another Lizzie Mcguire. Aside from the annoying sound effects every 30 seconds and the out of order episodes, this is a well thought out planned Disney channel show. And Ricky Ullmans (Phil) acting is great and he plays the role of Phil perfectly. Amy Bruckner (Pim) brings comedy and life to the show. And Alyson Michalka (Keely) is a great choice for the roll of Keely. All in All, this is a great Disney show and i will continue to watch it.
