Aren’t they a little old to be reviving a beloved TV show? No. No they are not. 🙂 ---

I’m 68 years old and this news is great. I don’t like most current cartoons, but that one was an exception. Will the style be the same, and will Perry be in it? I always had fantasies of dominating the Tri State Area! ---

If I had a nickel for every time somebody greenlit Phineas and Ferb, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s cool that it happened twice. ---

Great news! I wonder what that means for “Hamster and Gretel”? Been watching that, and it’s cute, but if I had to choose between that and “Phineas and Ferb,” the rodent goes. Then again, I’m still hoping they’ll bring back “Milo Murphy’s Law” from the same creators. Loved that show. ---

I’m going to be the contrarian here. I loved that show but the 2020 movie was evidence to me that the show ran its course. I won’t be able to stop myself from watching it but I have to think that it will only dilute the memory of one of the better cartoons I sat and enjoyed with my kids.
