Kim Possible | Disney Channel | Promo | 2004
Kim Possible is an American animated action comedy-adventure[1][2][3][4] television series created by Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle that originally aired on Disney Channel from June 7, 2002 to September 7, 2007. The show revolves around eponymous high school cheerleader Kim Possible - a teenage crime-fighter tasked with saving the world on a regular basis while coping with everyday personal and social issues commonly associated with adolescence. Kim is aided by her clumsy best friend and sidekick Ron Stoppable, his pet naked mole rat Rufus and 10 year-old computer genius Wade. Known collectively as Team Possible, the majority of Kim and Ron's missions require them to thwart the evil plans of mad scientist-supervillain duo Dr. Drakken and Shego, but they occasionally encounter other enemies as well.
Veteran Disney Channel writers Schooley and McCorkle were recruited by the network to develop an animated series capable of attracting both younger and older audiences, and conceived Kim Possible as a show about a smart, talented action heroine and her less competent sidekick. Inspired by the scarcity of female-led animated series at the time as well as their own daughters, the episodes, some of which are based on the creators' own high school experiences, combine elements of action, adventure, drama, romance and comedy to appeal to both girls and boys, while parodying the James Bond franchise, spy and superhero films, and teen sitcoms. Distinct in its use of self-referential humor from other Disney Channel shows, Schooley and McCorkle developed a fast-paced sitcom-style dialogue to cater to adult viewers. Set in fictional Middleton, USA, the show's setting and locations exhibit a retro-influenced aesthetic. With a strong emphasis on modern-day technology and the Internet, the series also explores themes such as feminism, girl power and relationships, and is heavily compared to other female-driven action shows by which it was preceded, including Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Alias and The Powerpuff Girls.
Kim Possible was the second animated Disney Channel Original Series, and the first series produced by Walt Disney Television Animation. Defying low expectations, the show premiered to immediate critical acclaim and has been praised throughout its run for its humor, writing and animation. Maintaining strong ratings since its 2002 debut, Kim Possible's premiere was the most-watched of any Disney Channel Original Series. Originally canceled at the end of its third season in 2005, Disney Channel unprecedentedly ordered a fourth installment of the series to appease devoted fans who were insisting that the show continue. Nominated for eight Emmy Awards, Kim Possible won one, for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Mixing - Live Action and Animation, in 2005. Lasting four seasons and 87 episodes, the show is considered to be one of Disney Channel's greatest and most successful, and remained the network's longest-running series until surpassed by Phineas and Ferb in 2013. The success of the series spawned two television films based on the show, Kim Possible: A Sitch in Time (2003) - the first animated Disney Channel Original Movie - and Kim Possible Movie: So the Drama (2005), as well as a video game series.
