What happens when you give Jar Jar Binks his own TV show?
This is stupidity at its best. I know you've all heard this from other users, but just to recap, the characters are annoying, ugly, absurd, and really, really bad role models. CommonSense is really off on their review. This has no imagination at all. Tired, stale, fart jokes and a ridiculous plot in each episode. The first three seconds of the theme song, I think I'm going to have a seizure! Disappointing. Don't watch this piece of junk. If you want real, Nickelodeon entertainment at its best, watch the older shows (1990-2005). They're definitely more worth it.

Worst Nickelodeon Show Since Mr. Meaty!!!
Fanboy and Chum Chum? Yuck. I'm sorry but this show is total garbage. No one of any age should watch. It is obviously geared towards the fat American ADHD kid, and is even encouraging that stereotype! I would rather gouge out my eyeballs than watch Nickelodeon’s latest blunder! That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but this show is the epitome of brainlessness. I felt as if my IQ had dropped significantly after watching just one episode. The bright swirling colors and crappy CGI are almost hypnotic. The theme song is gag-worthy. All the characters are ugly and misshapen (you know, box shaped heads, bug eyes, huge teeth and all that cr@p.) And, the main characters are disgusting idiots. Fanboy and Chum Chum set a terrible example for younger kids. They are constantly causing mischief at school, and encouraging disgusting behaviors such as nose picking and sticking gum under desks. All the intelligent people or adults in the show are either evil or stupid. In the one episode that I watched, the janitor was made evil just because he wanted to clean gum off the bottoms of the desks. When he tries to clean up the gum, the “heroes” of the show basically torture him until he lets them have their gum. Does anyone else find this totally wrong? This show makes fun of intelligence, moral decency, and cleanliness while celebrating mischief and mindless stupidity! A lot of parents and parenting experts are complaining about violence in cartoons, but in my opinion, mindlessness in any form, including mindless violence and just general brainlessness, is worse than just violence. Do they honestly think that kids are so stupid that they find this cr@p entertaining?! Seriously Nick, give your viewers some credit! We’re not all dumb slobs! Nickelodeon is turning into cr@p, just like Cartoonetwork. They used to have good shows, like Avatar: The Last Airbender and Danny Phantom, but they’ve cancelled all of those in favor of this new sh!t. Avatar: The Last Airbender was a huge success, and it had morals, intelligence, action, and an actual plot. Nick should have learned from that, so why don’t they have more shoes like it? Why continue with this cr@p when it’s an obvious fail? I just don’t get it. I’m not saying that all cartoons need to be wholesome and educational, but they at least shouldn’t be celebrating idiocy! Stop insulting our intelligence Nickelodeon!

Not recommended if you want your children to act maturely.
Quite an annoying show. It's on too much and is a perfect way to ruin a perfectly good Saturday. The theme song is annoying and the role models are horrible. Both Fanboy and Chum Chum are complete morons and are NOT the kind of people your little 5 or 7 year olds should want to be like. I feel this also contains some racial profiling. Considering how they stereotype an Indian child by making his character wear glasses and giving him an accent like he isn't trying to adjust to his fellow American citizens, the African American boy is a Michael Jackson fanboy(no pun intended), and the red-headed wizard kid rips off of Harry Potter with his talking brown book whilst inducing stereotypes mocking red-heads(pale skin, braces, large mouth, a garden of freckles on his face.

Miranda Cosgrove do you have a mental disorder? I think so, there is none of that language or anything you said, but I agree that I HATE this show and wish the old shows were back!

Too many fart jokes, butt references, and just STUPID!
I personally hate this show and think that Nickelodeon could have MANY better shows. In short: don't watch this unless you and/or your kids want severe brain damage.

My thoughts on Fanboy and ChumChum
Honestly, I've watched this six times and I've never fined funny. Fanboy and ChumChum are bad role models to kids. They make kids put underwear on their outside. Fanboy and ChumChum are very annoying, let alone that all the characters are annoying. It's not funny. I don't know how kids can watch this. To sum it all of, this is the worst Nickelodeon show of all-time.

...I'm speechless.
I'm speechless. Not in the good way. Nickelodeon used to be epitome of great cartoons, and now their cartoons are barely watchable. The characters are unlikable, it's not at all funny, and it's just... dumb. I've watched plenty of shows with no educational value-- that's not what bothers me. I was a huge fan of the show Stickin' Around (not a Nick show, I believe it was on Fox) as a kid, and the protagonists are somewhat dumb in the sense that they just do ridiculous things-- however, there's a huge difference. That show could pull off the element of stupidity because they used CREATIVITY and HUMOUR. I get the impression that the writers of Fanboy & Chum Chum are just plain stupid themselves, and think potty humour and silly stunts are comedy gold. I feel bad for kids who have to grow up with this show.

I almost agree with all of yall.its the worst show that has ever been created on nickoloden. Mr. meaty was decent though. im not saying it was the best. it was just something that was brain-destroying. i wish there would be stuff around when i was like 3 and classic spongebob. old farly god parents (poof ruined the show) and on nick-toons stuff like ren and stimpy on all the time. but Parents, do not let your kids watch this. it made my IQ -998523498624578545457835873 and my mums IQ -9999999999 when she watch the commercial.so i recommend to: N E V E R W A T C H T H I S S H O W!!!!

Flush it! B.A.D!!!!
What IS this show? Seriously! It makes no sense! It gives me a huge headache, it has no meaning. Very rarely, I laugh at Fanboy, cuz he's a tiny bit funny. . This isn't worth a show! They replaced shows like Rugrats, My Life as a Teenage Robot, and The Wild Thorn Berries for "THIS?" Is there any quality in TV anymore?!

Just don't watch this...unless you don't care about your brain
This show is just plain stupid. I would not be suprised if we were told that the makers of this show were high on drugs while they made it. The show lacks any originality whatsoever. As usual, this show is obsessed with potty humor (the only recent show on Nick that has not been is Penguins of Madagascar, which was a refreshing break) and the characters look like giant eggs: NOT something you'd expect from a CGI 2009 cartoon. I suppose the show doesn't possess ONLY potty humor, they also have humor that rips off movies like Star Wars. That's right, the ugly old janitor is a complete parody of the supreme chancellor and quotes about fifty lines stolen directly from the movies. The only thing good about him is that he is the only character that doesn't look like a giant egg.
