    My favorite show for my 6 and 8 year old boys. I think the writers must be from my generation.

    Just right for a kindergarten boy

    Well, it's not educational. But my son LOVES this show. And it's pretty funny, and harmless, and the theme music is very catchy. What's not to like?

    parents and kids will like this smart and funny show

    Great fun for both of my boys (3 and 6). I've caught my husband watching it even when the kids weren't around! Younger than 5 probably won't understand it. The brothers and sisters do love each other, which is good role-modeling.

    Great for the whole family, a good one to watch with Mom and Dad

    This is a great show that my 4 and 6 year old can enjoy together. My husband and I enjoy it too because it is clever and there are often references from our own childhood (most notably Star Wars). I think the sibling interaction between Candace and the boys is great because while her whole purpose is to "bust" them, when the chips are down they always pull together. Above all, it is clever and never crass. Fun!

    We all love this show in fact my husband and I watch it even when the kids aren't around. I like the fact that it shows the normal family dynamic. Siblings are always trying to get the other one in trouble, but in the end they all still love each other.

    Even the adults in our house can stand this show!

    Education - while P&F's schemes are always over the top, they lead to discussion of what is and is not possible in real life, as opposed to cartoons. Messages - no matter how exasperated C is with P&F, it is clear that she loves them and they are a working family unit. The fact that they are a blended family only adds to this.

    Great Role Models

    I think the main characters are very motivated characters, they believe anything can be achieved. I think that makes them a good role model for my son. The show is very imaginative and creative and my son absolutely loves it, and I have no concerns. I believe this show is very appropriate for most ages.

    Great show

    This show provides fun for our whole family. The adventure and double plots make it interesting, the humor is great, and the sibling rivalry and oblivious parents are true-to-life. Think of the Candace vs. Phineas and Ferb as Janie and Ferris Bueller.

    Lots of fun, with goofy humor. The main plot is Phineas and Ferb building a huge contraption, and their high-strung sister Candace trying to get them in trouble. The side story is the boys' pet platypus fighting Dr. Doofenschmirtz, a wannabe villain, as a secret agent.

    Edgy for Disney, but lovable!

    Honestly edgy, but I enjoy it! Cartoonish violence, sexual innuedos that are kind of awkward, and certain language, which makes me surprised for it to come from Disney, but I like that. Don't miss out, just watch with your kids and make your decision.

    Great show for grade school and Middle school aged children.

    Parents need to know that this show isnt educational,but does give positive messages like"be creative","you can do if you put your mind to it",and "dont be lazy..make everyday count" the usual grade school messages.Though no one actually get hurt by the boys adventions....they do prove to be dangerouse sometimes and interfere with the balance of nature and define the law of gravity,which might be a concern to some christians and spiritule ppl.

    Great show for all ages

    I don't have anything bad to say about this show. There is nothing inappropriate in it. It has amazing music, a great plot line, and characters that you just have to love. The music is extremely catchy and there is a song in every episode - check out the Phineas and Ferb soundtrack. Also, the show sends a really good message - to make the best of your free time and to have fun. Even though most teenagers won't admit to watching cartoons, all of my friends love Phineas and Ferb. Not to mention how popular Perry the Platypus' side of the story is! How can you not love an action fighting Platypus? Dr. Doofenschmirtz is a very cool villain, or frenemy, in my opinion to Perry. Also, Dr. Doofenschmirtz's daughter Vanessa is a unique character that sang a very nice duet with Candace about trying to bust their family member.

    There are poor messages, violence and sex in it. Poor messages say that kids can destroy stuff. There is a TON AND A HALF of flirting in the show. Don't let your children and/or teens watch this.

    This is not that bad. Except one little problem. YOU MADE A MISTAKE!!!!! I mean really 5+, and you made cyberchase 6+. Cyberchase should be 4 or 5+. But phineas and ferb should be 6+. Phineas and ferb has some violence and it's on disney. But cyberchase is educational and is on PBS kids. Have some common sense, commonsense media.

    Standing Ovation!

    Yes, yes, yes! Whenever I hear it start up (the theme song is the best I've heard in a good deal of time, by the way) I feel an urge to drop to my knees and cry, "Hallelujah!!" Everything on P&F is well-balanced, and even when there are enemies, it is shown in a non-violent, cartoonish (as decided in one episode by Dr. D; the one featuring Peter the Panda) and almost FRIENDLY sort of way. Plus, vivacious voice actors and fun character designs only bring it up a notch. Well Done!!

    Great for kids

    A clean, fun show for kids 5 and up. It's about a boy named Phineas and his British step-brother Ferb. They are always building over-the-top inventions, and their older, teenage sis, Candace, always is trying to get them busted by calling Mom every time so she can see what they're doing, which, in her opinion, is bad. Phineas and Ferb is a good show, except for one thing. Candace, I think, is dependent on her Mom TOO much. She's always saying, "Mom, mom, look at what Phineas and Ferb are doing!" Or, "Ooh! You guys are SO busted!" OR, "I'm calling Mom!" She depends on her Mom too much. I think Candace could handle the problem herself. Also, (I guess there's two things.) Phineas and Ferb may send mix messages to your kids. Phineas and Ferb promote to kids that being creative and imaginative is a good thing. But then, Candace comes along and is always trying to call her Mom and bust her brothers. Because of what? Their creativity! She always gets all upset when her brothers build something. So, kids may not be sure of what is good and what's bad. But, it is a fantastic show. Kids will really enjoy it.
