Jimmy Two-Shoes (also known as JTS; or as Jimmy Cool in most parts of Europe) is a Canadian animated children's television series produced by Canadian-based companies Breakthrough Entertainment, Mercury Filmworks and Elliott Animation that aired on Disney XD in the United States, Teletoon in Canada, Jetix (later Disney Channel) in Europe. The series centers on the exploits of the happy-go-lucky title character, who lives in Miseryville, a miserable town filled with monsters and demon-like creatures. The series was created by Edward Kay and Sean Scott.

Contents

The series originally premiered in the United States on February 13, 2009, and in Canada on March 21, 2009. The final episode aired on July 15, 2011, in the United States and April 5, 2012, in Canada, with reruns continuing until December 2017.

Premise

The series follows the adventures of Jimmy, a happy-go-lucky boy who makes it his mission to find fun everywhere he goes. This is a challenge because Jimmy lives in Miseryville, the unhappiest town around, run by the megalomaniacal Lucius Heinous the Seventh. Miseryville has one main industry: Misery Inc., purveyors of putrid products guaranteed to cause grief; and they do not come with a money-back guarantee. Along with his best friends Heloise (part-time genius, full-time soul-crusher who is secretly in love with Jimmy) and Beezy (adventure lover, couch potato, and Jimmy's definitive best friend), Jimmy is determined to surf past all obstacles and bring his infectious enthusiasm to the whole town.

Production

According to Edward Kay, a 6-minute not-for-air demo was funded by one of the investors with the intention that the series would be for an older youth audience. The original concept has the location taking place in Hell with the characters having similar yet somewhat different attributes than they had in the final show. The concept was later re-worked and revamped with many of the mature elements removed as it was considered too edgy for a 6-11 market. [1]
