Season chronology | |
The first season of Phineas and Ferb aired on the Disney Channel from August 17, 2007, to February 18, 2009. The five main characters include stepbrothers Phineas Flynn and Ferb Fletcher, their older sister Candace Flynn, secret agent Perry the Platypus (who is also Phineas and Ferb's pet), and the evil scientist Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz.
Recurring characters include the across-the-street neighbor Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, the boys' mom Linda Flynn-Fletcher, the boys' dad Lawrence Fletcher, Perry's boss Major Monogram, Carl the Intern, Candace's crush Jeremy Johnson, Baljeet Tjinder, Buford Van Stomm, Candace's best friend Stacy Hirano, and many more.
The show uses four major writers to devise story ideas according to "strict guidelines", such as that the boys' schemes never appear to be "magical". Stories are reviewed at weekly sessions on Monday, then simultaneously scripted and storyboarded. A very rough design is built before the storyboard, featuring little more than suggested scenes and dialogue, is drafted; the writers then gather for a "play-by-play" walk-through of the storyboard in front of the whole crew, whose reactions to the jokes are assessed before rewrites are made. [1] The writers also include running gags in every episode, which are generally lines spoken by characters. [2] Almost every episode is set into two eleven-minute segments. [3]
Phineas and Ferb are voiced by Vincent Martella and Thomas Sangster, respectively. [4] Sangster was one of many British actors cast; Marsh lived in the United Kingdom for seven years, and developed a fondness for its people. [5] The rest of the cast includes Ashley Tisdale as their sister Candace, Dee Bradley Baker as the secret agent platypus Perry, Caroline Rhea as the mother Linda Flynn-Fletcher, Richard O'Brien as the father Lawrence Fletcher, [4] Kelly Hu as Candace's best friend Stacy, and Alyson Stoner as Phineas and Ferb's next-door neighbor and best friend Isabella. [5] Series creators Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh provide the voices of Dr. Doofenshmirtz and Major Monogram, respectively.

Phineas and Ferb is an American animated musical-comedy television series created by Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh for Disney Channel and Disney XD. The series originally aired on the networks for four seasons between 2007 and 2015 and is scheduled to return for two additional seasons beginning in 2025. The series follows stepbrothers Phineas Flynn and Ferb Fletcher during summer vacation. Every day, the boys construct a grand project or embark on a spectacular adventure to make the most of their time on vacation. This annoys their controlling older sister, Candace, who frequently tries to expose their schemes to her and Phineas's mother. The series follows a standard plot system; running gags occur every episode.
Phineas Flynn is a fictional character and one of the two title characters from the animated television series Phineas and Ferb. He is voiced by Vincent Martella. Phineas, along with his quiet but intelligent stepbrother Ferb Fletcher, stars in the A-Plot of most episodes.
Ferbs "Ferb" Fletcher is one of the two main protagonists in the animated television series Phineas and Ferb.
