List of episodes

The fifth season of The Fairly OddParents started on July 2, 2004 (2004-07-02). In this season, the show aired its seventh TV movie, Fairy Idol, and two Jimmy Timmy Power Hour movies. After "The Jerkinators", the series and Jimmy Neutron seem to end, but later in 2006, they aired episodes that chronologically come before the season finale. After the latter ended its run on November 25, 2006, The Fairly OddParents was sent on hiatus for 15 months, between November 2006 and February 2008. It was produced by Frederator Studios and Nickelodeon Animation Studio.

Season 5 was the last season to be distributed by Nelvana International and so is the last to air on Disney Channel and Jetix (depending on the country).

Timmy gets ready to watch Crash Nebula but gets into an argument with Cosmo and Wanda about what episode it is. The episode chronicled Sprig Speevak, the alter-ego of the hero Crash Nebula. Note 1: Despite airing on July 2, 2004, it is considered part of Season 5 when referring to packaging order (the episode, however, was produced during season 3). Butch Hartman had attempted to create Crash Nebula as a spin-off animated series. This episode only ran a few times before Hartman cancelled the spin-off for many reasons. [7] Note 2: This was the last episode to air on Jetix and Disney Channel internationally, and the final episode syndicated as a part of Nelvana's distribution package for the series. Guest stars: James Arnold Taylor as Sprig Speevak, Nika Futterman as Ani, Justin Berfield as Ving, Michael Clarke Duncan as Rockwell, and Queen Latifah as Pam Dromeda.
