Show Summary

  • Ended
The world is in danger! Only five ten-year-old kids and 1 who loves show are our only hope! Problem: Adults have become tyrants over kids. Solution: five kids decide to change that for themselves and the world.''''Join these five kids and 1 lover of knd (known by Numbuh 1, Numbuh 2, and so on) as they battle evil ranting (yet determined) grown-ups, candy pirates, their arch Nemesis, the Delightful Children from Down the Lane, their Father, a man of fiery powers and that was once known as "Mr. Wigglestines" and his many minions (such as Numbuh 5's older sister, Cree and ex-operative Numbuh 274, Chad). But they also have to deal with havoc amongst themselves...''''Characters:''''Numbuh 1 (Nigel Uno): Numbuh 1 is the bold leader of the group, hands down. With a fear of bugs and hate for the beach, he still can be the ultimate leader (he does have a girlfriend, and skill of thinking up great tactics and defense) and spare some time for an ice cream! He is the second youngest of the Kids Next Door.''''Numbuh 2 (Hoagie Pennywhistle Gilligan Jr.): With a skilled mind and knowledge of a buhzillion, Numbuh 2 is definitely the master in the building department. Also, with puns and jokes like that, what's not to love? He is the third oldest/youngest (In the middle) of the Kids Next Door.''''Numbuh 3 (Kuki Sanban): Hugs and Rainbow Monkeys are just as sweet as Numbuh 3 herself! Known as "The Flirt", this Asian does seem to hit the soft spot of most. However, she may be out-of-it at times, but when you mess with something she loves, you have to pay the price with a she-devil. She is the youngest of the Kids Next Door.''''Numbuh 4 (Wallabee "Wally" Beatles): Yes, his nickname ("The Tough Guy") does serve Numbuh 4 well. He sure has a knack for letting his actions speak, therefore making it easy as to what he's about to do. Though, underneath the hard shell, he has that soft spot (though doesn't show it) for people he cares for most. And some would say the person really up there is a certain happy girl. He is the second oldest of the Kids Next Door.''''Numbuh 5 (Abigail "Abby" Lincoln): Numbuh 5 would be put in a different crowd from the rest... This laid back girl always keeps her cool, yet sometimes can get a little impatient. All else aside, she is probably the guardian angel of the group, guiding the others, while not getting in the way of everyone's jobs. She is the oldest of the Kids Next Door.''''Numbuh 86 (Fanny Fulbright): Head of Decommissioning, defeat teenagers and adults, boss some kids around, this girl could do it all. Numbuh 86 is sure not only hardcore, but like Numbuh 4, soft on the inside. She may have a love for Rainbow Monkeys and thinks Numbuh 4 is pretty cute, but don't let that get to you. No matter what, she'll do her duties as decommissioning teens.''''Lizzie Devine: Lizzie is the infamous girlfriend of Numbuh 1, her Nigie. She was annoying at first, but the team has realized it could be much worse. Lizzie is the over-protetive type of her boyfriend and sometimes, jealous, but, she always is there to help Numbuh 1, even if she has to crash a couple of ships.''''Tommy Gilligan: Tommy looks up to his brother, Numbuh 2, and wants to be just like him. Of course, his love for his brother matches the amount of how much he annoys everyone... On the upper hand, he would make an excellent operative! If he can, that is... After a battle, he had to sacrifice his own membuhship to defeat the adults. Mushi Sanban: This little girl is almost exactly like her older sister, Numbuh 3. With the cuteness of a bummillion, she can just as easily get guys as her sister, "stealing" her "man", King Sandy.''''The Delightful Children From Down The Lane: The Delightful Children From Down The Lane are the KND's arch nemisesses. Working for their Father (see below) they are raised (or made) to give and serve the adults. But most kids, however, think they're creepy, for they talk and walk, and do just about everything as one.''''Father: Probably the most evil guy on the earth to attack the KND. Father is a conniving and scheming grown-up who happens to be the father of the DCFDTL (the Delightfuls'). He is bent on destroying the KND for interrupting his plans on adults ruling the world. However, he is no match for the KND!''''Cree Lincoln: Numbuh 5's sister, ex-operative Numbuh 11 (the best of her time), and one of Father's top worker is all Cree. She has it all, skills, knowledge, and a very suductive kiss, which Hank (who is Numbuh 2, teenagerized) has experienced first hand, she is an amazing teenager. But that's just it.. she's a teenager, working with the other side.''''Chad: Like Cree, Chad is an ex-operative (Numbuh 274, who, also, was the best), and he is also working with Father. He, too, has the skills, and the perfect kid--now teen--(in an adult's eyes), but he gets made fun of once in a while... for wearing a bra, which is really BRA (Battle Ready Armor) that can help him beat up any one and change into any one.''''Numbuh 362 (Unknown real name): She's the girl with the class and everything. Highest ranking, she is like president of the KND. And of course, she is one chick that Numbuh 86 admires. Of course, she tends to be rather annoyed with 86 easily.''''The Kid: Not much is known about this guy, but he sure makes Numbuh 2 want to beat him at everything, making him...basically, Numbuh 2's rival (even if he had to work with him). It also seems he likes to make other kids want to rival him, because he sure has Numbuh 4 on a knot for having a "fling" with Numbuh 3...''''Various Villians: Here's where you could start snoring because a long list of people ((Cough-Adults-Cough)) are coming your way! The list includes Mr. Boss (sort of the "Villian Leader", other than Father), The Toilenator (who just tries too hard and yet gets nothing), Sticky Beard (sort of Numbuh 5's rival, due to the candy-stash), The Cat Lady (self-explanatory), The Common Cold, Count Spankulot, and a whole lot more! They just keep on comin'!''''DNK: The Destructively Nefarious Kids. They're totally the opposite of the KND! Living in the opposite world (which entrance is through Numbuh 4's pool), everything and everyone in there is quite opposite of the KND's world. All the DNK are known as the "negatives" (i.e. Negative Numbuh 1, Negative Numbuh 2, etc.), and their names backwards. Luckily, by the end of the KND's journey to their world, they agreed to a truce that resolved their answers. Although, it makes you wonder if there would be more of the DNK...''''Rainbow Monkeys: Yes, they may not be characters, but are very important to the KND in many ways. Every girl couldn't live without them, and Numbuh 3 certainly wouldn't have her stuffed-animal filled room. Also, they are just as real as the KND themselves, but only a certain Asian girl would know.''''The Hamsters: The KND wouldn't, and couldn't sustain themselves with the power from the hamsters! They provide energy (like electricity) and can help with moving big things.moreless

    I never really liked this show that much,I used to watch when I was 8 just because I couldn't find anything else to watch.I guess it's a good show for little kids.The main reason why I didn't like it is because they're 10 year olds trying to get rid of adults.That sounds more like a thought that would be going through a 5 year old's head not someone as old as 10.The show's not that bad it had some pretty decent episodes.I do remember that number 5 was my favorite character because she seemed more laid back and a litter more mature than the rest of them.moreless

    Cartoon Network, back in the good days... *sigh* Out of the sea of good shows, however, this could possibly have been the best. Its premise was entirely original, about an organization called Kids Next Door, or KND for short. It centers around the first 5 members, Nigel, Hoagie, Kooki, Wallaby, and Abigail, classified as "numbuhs." Though each personality is somewhat stereotyphical, (ie, the leader, the smart one, the dumb tough one etc.) their personality is still fleshed out enough to be believable, and thus good characters. The humor was also decent. Though it occasionally grossed you with overuse of boogers, it was still hilarious when it came to stuff like Wallaby's lame excuses to cover his love for Kooki, or Kooki in general. The plot, as said before, is also great, when it came to the storylines in each episode. Most were about one of the show's villains, (which were also great, unlike Johnny Test's...) and how the kids ultimately triumph over them, though there are some neat parodies like the Fountain of Youth.

    Ultimately, Codename Kids Next Door is one of the best shows Cartoon Network has to offer, with great characters, hilarious moments, and very original plot. Codename: Kids Next Door? More like: Awesome: This Show!moreless

    Codename: KND rocked. And it wasn't because of the creative plotline, it's how the show had grown on all of us as kids, myself included, and proved to grow on us better with age, unlike Billy and Mandy, whom quickly grew stale as it went on (barring the first few segments of the Nigel Planter saga, Fred Fredburger, and the last three movies). It was like they grew up with us even though they still were children. Nigel seemed to have the most character development among the KND, and I was cheering with glee when he broke up with Lizzie (sorry, I liked her at the beginning, when she wasn't so clingy and irritatingly loud), as well as (I've heard) making it to the Galactic Kids Next Door. I have to admit, I was pissed when Cartoon Network just ended KND without showing the last movie again...the reruns don't give it justice because they're doing it for cash.moreless

    Codename Kids Next Door was by far, one of the best shows on Cartoon Network. I got really mad when they got rid of it. Along with all their other great cartoons. Like Grim Adventures, PPG, Puffy, Fosters, Camp Lazlo and My Gym Partner's a Monkey. Now, Cartoon Network is being run by alcoholics. This show needs a return, even if it's just repeats.
