  • Disappointment.

    I enjoyed the series finale of Dp but why did they have to have Danny reveal his identity like that the secret ID is one of the things that made the show fun to watch.

  • Season 1 on Netflix

    For those of you are members of Netflix, I just discovered that you can watch Season 1 of Danny Phantom as an instant film to your computer. So that's my little piece of news if anyone was interested. =]

    Best Show EVER!!! hide « show »

    Nothing can beat this show. One reason is all the different ghosts you see on the show, from the hero of the show, a halfa named Danny, to the halarious to watch Box Ghost, the evil fulture Danny (Dark Danny/Dan Phantom), and the popstar ghost Ember. Another is the whole Danny's life in general, a technoligy geek-meat conisiour friend (Tucker) and the Goth-ultura recycluo vegetarian (however you spell it) friend with a crush on him (Danny is clueless), a sister (Jazz) who thinks she is a adult, and two ghost hunters for parents. All and all this is my favorite show.

    My explaination for the portrayal of the Ghosts At the beginning of this series they were portrayed as you would expect. the spirits of deceased people. Ex: poindexter lunch lady Desiree dairy king and so on. but as the story went on it sort of changed. hide « show »

    The main reason i believe was for the sake of the target audience. seven to fourteen year olds. The idea of having ghost villains was good in theory, but it was beginning to become to Death-oriented for such a young demographic.
    the change happened somewhere around the episode fanning the flames. it this episode a ghost called ember sings parts a song called "Remember". The full song was not allowed in the show because of the lyrics. take a look.

    It was, it was September,
    Wind blow, the dead leaves fall.
    To you, I did surrender,
    Two weeks you didn't call.

    Your life goes on without me,
    My life, a losing game.
    But you should, you should not doubt me,
    You will remember my name.

    (Chorus)
    Ohh Ember, you will remember.
    Ember, one thing remains,
    Ohh Ember, so warm and tender,
    You will remember my name.

    Your heart, your heart abandoned,
    You're wrong, now bare the shame.
    Like dead trees, in cold December,
    Nothing but ashes remain.

    Ohh Ember, you will remember.
    Ember, one thing remains,
    Ohh Ember, so warm and tender,
    You will remember my name.

    Ohh Ember, you will remember.
    Ember, one thing remains,
    Ohh Ember, so warm and tender,
    You will remember my name.

    holy crap... its a teen suicide song!
    well i guess i shouldn't say that, i don't really know for sure. but heck, dosent it sound like her boyfriend dumped her so she offed herself? strangely that would cover a lot that went unexplained in the show. she gains and loses her power depending on how people think of her. when they all love her and are chanting her name she's invincible. but when people stop cheering, when they leave- she's powerless. it's almost like a metaphor for her mindset in life. All of her self worth hedged on what her boyfriend thought of her. but when he left her she feels abandoned and powerless, willing to commit atrocities. So i think Mr. Hartman changed the ghost thing to avoid plot lines that might not be suitable for children. scary; yes, appealing; heck yeah, but child friendly? no. so "ghost" in this show is really just a broad term for a ghost-like supernatural creature. Heck it's Butch Hartman after all, he always makes his own rules. all in all its a great show. I'll admit its a bit corny at times, but thats part of its appeal. I've made a lot of speculations in the review so take them with a pinch of suger they're just opinions. until next time.

    Good and unique show hide « show »

    This shows follows a 14 year old freshmen named Danny Fenton who gets ghost powers. His parents are "ghost-hunters", and created a portal to "Ghost Zone". They tried it but it didn't work, then Danny stepped inside and pushed a button, and all the ghost energy ran through him and now ghost energy is in his DNA. Now with his ghost powers, he must save his town Amity Park from evil ghosts such as another half-ghost, half-human named Vlad Plasmius. This was definetely one of my favorite shows when it first came on. Danny gets help from his sister Jazz, and his two best friends Sam and Tucker. Also, he gets help from his parents inventions to capture ghosts.

    Good show. hide « show »

    It's one of the best shows on Nickelodeon better than that very stupid The Fairly Oddparents show.Butch Hartman has done it again and he did it very better than The Fairly Oddparents.I mean,Come On.It's a bad idea to have Fairys instead of very cool phantoms.Who would do that instead of this idea for a kids show?It's should be one of the best ideas ever made on a kids show.I could say that it's very much a very good idea for a show that's fantasy.I can really say that I grade this show a C because I didn't like it,Like The Fairly Oddparents.

    I love this show! It's hilarious and awesome and the characters remind me of random people! hide « show »

    Oh, I love this show, Danny Phantom. The only reason I cannot rate it a 10 is because some episodes are the best things ever while others are all "Vlad, shut up and leave Maddie alone!" A lot of the characters in this show remind me of people I know in real life. I really love watching this show ever time it comes on. I'll even get up at 2 in the morning to watch it sometimes (believe me, I do) This show is a bit better than the Fairly Oddparents, but I still lov both of Butch Hartman's creations. Danny Phantom rules, it ended in a good place, and we can still watch the reruns on Nicktoons Network :)
