Dan Povenmire himself has actually explained the concert thing with Phineas and Ferb's parents on his youtube and tiktok! Basically, Love Handle is an 80's *style* band, Linda and Lawrence were dressed up for that concert and had hired a sitter for the kids. Edit: Here's the original link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKGpeqWLjMpkjJY Head to to about 7:10 for the Love Handle question

[@15Candles]

My friend thinks that Love Handel was heavily inspired by Bon Jovi and Aerosmith. I'm going for more on Bon Jovi

[@hamzasultan96]

The issue is the kid's age, not how the parents dressed up. If the kids referenced existed during the concert, they should be adults by 2007.

I think what I'm looking forward to the most is Stacy's relationship with Perry and OWCA. She's the only one who knows Perry's secret and they never expanded upon that in the original series beyond one line

[@santosic]

I hope they throw us a bone with that one as well. Even if there isn't a full episode dedicated to it, I hope that Stacey and Perry interact more in the revival, maybe ieven redirect Candace who's about to see him or something like that; a very quick gag that doesn't really interrupt the episode and such. I'd happily take that at least. Ideally we'd get a full episode of Stacey and Perry having their own B plot together, likely with Doof involved somehow that ropes her in. But that is very elaborate so it seems unlikely unless it's one of those formula-breaking hour long TV specials or something. Which is possible as well I suppose.

[@bhavyakhatri007]

[@JurassicLion2049]

I was already a pretty grown kid when Phineas & Ferb premiered so reading this like aged me 20+ years 😂

[@davidalan6701]

Dan actually talked about how Phineas & Verb's parents were dressed at the concert, and that it actually took place MUCH later, like early 2000s, but because it was an 80's metal hair band, they pulled out their old clothes from the 80's to match the vibe.

[@theonewithaname2242]

Verb

[@Zyphon]

Another part of Phineas and Ferb's formula that doesn't get enough credit is how it breaks one of the biggest "rules" for writing a story: giving the main character(s) a conflict to deal with. Obviously the pair (and their friends) deals with conflicts in some episodes, but nothing bad ever happens to them. There are almost never any real stakes. I heard somewhere that the show wasn't even originally picked up because the idea that nothing bad ever happens to P&F was expected to make it extremely uninteresting. It gets around this issue by writing the other characters to have their own conflicts.

[@spiritedcloud]

I remember Dan, one of the creators, stated somewhere that Phineas and Ferb are the setting rather than than the story (or something of that nature).

[@FelisImpurrator]

Let's be real, so much of the best stuff in storytelling comes from breaking the rules creatively.

[@JustAnAcorn]

That's because Candace and Doof are the actual main characters. The B-plot is actually the main one. Phineas and Ferb's creations are the backdrops for the episode, rather than the actual focus. The special episodes are the only ones that Phineas, Ferb, and friends actually undergo any development.

[@darksev.6468]

@@spiritedcloud He said that P&F were the B-plot and Perry was the A-plot.

[@jamiek8123]

[@user-jy2mb9gg4m]

I remember reading a pitch on Reddit for a Phineas and Ferb quarantine special, where the family are all on lockdown for Covid and they have to find something to build INSIDE the house, and all the while Candace is trying to bust them but their mom is never in the same room meaning she doesn’t see it. It actually sounded like a solid pitch

[@DoofenSpyroDragon16]

Reminds me of the episode Bullseye, but the twist was that it was the mom building something. However I don’t think we need a quarantine episode. Good grief.

[@Jarack25]

I feel like Milo Murphey's Law is a perfect example of how to do Post-Evil Doof and Perry. Doof tries to do something good with his inators and ends up messing things up, with Perry being assigned to stop him from being a danger to himself and others when things go wrong. This can be paralleled with our newly developed "enjoy every day" Candace, where she tries to get their mom to NOT see what the boys are doing and succeeds; there's an entire episode in P&F about that exact thing.

[@BoyNamedSue4]

Fun Fact: The bugs were part of the original pitch for the show. But it was decided having 3 ongoing plots would make it too complicated.

[@samlewis6487]

Which is honestly probably for the best. They were. Never very funny.

[@croak535]

What if the B plot of the revival is just Doof’s failed attempts of being a good guy and Perry has to help him? So you can keep them in the story while also sticking to the canon

[@RasmusVJS]

I believe that was their approach in Milo Murphy's Law.

[@croak535]

That's probably the reason but I do think the idea that Linda and Lawrence were a couple for a while before they had their kids and reunited is pretty interesting.

[@15Candles]

As a huge fan of the series, i actually wouldn't mind for them to return. Summer is never over and there are a lot of different things they can do with that series and the characters for the longest time. I'd love to see them do a crossover with a big franchise like they did with Star Wars and Marvel. Also, since Phineas and Ferb gave us so many banger original songs, i'm absolutely down for more of those in this revival 🙌

[@SomeYouTubeTraveler]

The beauty of it is that it doesn't have to make sense. If they try to hard to make it make sense, it won't work. They could literally just be like, "Huh, does this summer seem like it's going on even longer than last summer? ....Weird. Anyway Ferb, what are we gonna do today?" and there we go.

[@DoofenSpyroDragon16]

True but I would’ve preferred good guy Doof 😢

[@anonnymouscheese7820]

and more or less Halloween. He wasn't inherently evil, but he did imply that he would usually trap Perry.

[@i_zukk]

With Doof, i feel like the reason would be something like this: "I want to, but turns out i have 1 more year until my evil license expires- and I paid a lot of money for this! I don't want the money to go to waste."

[@adammyers7383]

My problem is that even if the formula manages to avoid scraping the bottom of the barrel, I want the *characters* to do something new. What’s so interesting about the same characters going back to the same dynamics with none of their experiences having changed them in any meaningful way? Especially Candance. God, after Candance against the Universe established her busting obsession to be rooted in deep-seated insecurities informed by how exceptional her brothers are, it would be INCREDIBLY depressing to see her go back to that. And Doofenshmirtz committed to leaving evil behind for Vanessa. She helped him realize he was actually at heart a decent guy. I don’t want to see them lose all that just to reestablish the formula. Even if it wouldn’t be tremendously sad, it would also be just…such a waste of fresh potential.

[@AnimatedIdiotGuide]

I could see them mixing in episodes that abandon the formulaic idea and try to work with the dynamics established in CATU and the finale. But as much as I’d find it compelling I doubt that’ll be the whole show

[@reganregan2760]

Once when I was going to the beach my mom asked what song do you want to listen to and I said “there’s a platypus controlling me” such a classic

​@@DoofenSpyroDragon16 My mom's ex at the time had "Squirrels in my pants" as her ringtone for like, 5 years. 😂

[@thedarkest9]

I think my favorite episode concept is the episode that is just the first episode, but the entire thing is a musical. The tradition of having one new song every episode was started with episode two, so episode one never had a song. As a bit of a light hearted jab at that little detail, they made what was, essentially a remake of episode one where they crammed songs into every scene they could with a presentation that reminds me of broadway musicals.

[@SirAsdf]

I think an idea they could do for the revival is have Perry and Doof team-up but against that Doofensmirtz from the 2nd dimension movie. So you have a slightly newer dynamic of Perry stopping Evil Doof with Good Doof helping out, or atleast trying to.

[@alpharocket9177]

Interesting, could work

[@DoofenSpyroDragon16]

YES!!!! Love this idea!!!!

[@ArendAlphaEagle]

Fun fact: that bug trio from Doof 101 and OWCA Files, was _actually part of the original pitch._ Not the pitch pilot, but there have been various concept arts released that feature the bug trio front and center in several scenarios, from around the time Doofenshmirtz was still called Mittleschmertz and had blonde, spiky hair.

[@Jazzered]

30:07 When he said “Are the bugs coming back?!” I had a seizure that I couldn’t tell if it was from sudden laughter or a mini heart attack I can’t figure out if my reaction was humor, fear, or if I just jumped

[@Wumbo_the_Mumbo]

I think the best course of action for Doof is have him accidentally be evil. He tries to build something for the betterment of the tri-state area, but it backfires and he unintentionally succeeds at the dreams he left behind, but he doesn't like it anymore.

[@N.EO-Quartz]

I had never watched Phineas and Ferb as a small child. I was more of a Nick Jr. kid at the time, but last summer I saw one of your videos and made it my mission to watch the ENTIRE series, all movies, the specials, and Milo Murphy’s Law before the end of summer. Towards the end of this huge binge watch, I went to a yard sale, and I’m now the proud owner of an official Disneyland Perry the Platypus that still makes noises and is in phenomenal condition as a token of that summer. Thank you for introducing me to one of the greatest Disney cartoons of all time!

[@DoubleH2279]

For the whole Doof thing, It’s possible Doofenshmirtz had a massive relapse sometime in the timeline after Milo Murphy’s Law ended. And also, I personally believe the show takes place over the course of 2 summers (on account of the Santa’s Sleigh showing up in AT2D), and the show can pull this off in the exact same format, but they need to change two things: Candace and Doof’s motivations. Because pretty much everyone in the fandom knows about Candace against the universe, it’s possible they could continue the show with Kent is genuinely wanting to show her mom the inventions rather than trying to bust them, which would make Candace be seen in a more respectable way. Doofenshmirtz can still roll into his evil tendencies, but it would also be nice to see him rebuild a burnt bridge every now and then. I also hope they have a stronger focus on continuity, but keep it episodic and character driven. I also think it would be nice to add in characters from Milo Murphy’s Law for an episode or two. But only in certain episodes.

[@Bobsburgers123]

Honestly I think the real thing is if the crew is having fun making the show. Shows like SpongeBob have run on for 25 years, even if the episodes aren’t amazing, you can see the fun the crew is having through the animation and references and on dans TikTok’s you can see the fun the crew has making these episodes. Even if you don’t enjoy it, the crew is having fun making it and that’s what I think matters.

[@The_Gidz]

Dan Povenmire also did confirm on his tiktok that we'd be seeing more episodes taking place in the Act Your Age time period too

[@Lazy_Artist129]

30:07 ARE THE BUGS COMING BACK?! idk why but i found this line is hilarious-

[@therubestergaming]

About your theory: Dan explained how that was in the late 90s/early 2000s, and those are their concert clothes, and when they decided to get married it wasn’t much later, they just weren’t dressed like they were for a concert, which is why their clothes looked like that, they just wanted to dress to match Love Handel’s 80s style 15:14

[@DaltonLunday2103]

I feel like with most shows, a revival doesn’t “need” to exist. Only the ones that were cut short and ended on cliffhangers. But a lot of beloved shows could come back and while not needed, doesn’t necessarily have to be a bad thing. It just depends on the execution of the revival.

[@sasamichan]

imo, since it is coming back, the series needs to move forward and not reset charter progress and continuity. If we must do this, have doof be good. At least at the start. And don't be afraid to drop in the them as adults time line or to even change it. And know that the show real had no place to go. The story was over. A series set in the teen to adult years would be way more interesting. And don't forget Milo.

[@irok1]

I disagree. I want some classic Phineas and Ferb episodes dropped in the original summer (or two based on fanons). It would be nice to see a few future episodes and a Milo crossover would be fun, but I don't think changinng from the original story is a good idea especially since Phineas and Ferb runs on negative continuity

I think the show will stay mostly the same, but they will add characters from Milo Murphy’s Law in certain episodes(but not all of them), and Candace will genuinely want her parents to see the inventions instead of the busting, and Doof will probably stay evil but try to do a good deed or rebuild a burnt bridge every now and then.

Looking back isn’t it insane Doof isn’t in the intro, like he’s a main character in every episode and not in the intro

[@tiablue9106]

tbf the title sequence is all abt phineas & ferb (and candace) so it'd be hard to shove doof in there

[@moodycowcrafts4862]

but Doof and the kids don't ever really interact - like the first time the meet is during one of their specials where they travel to an alternate universe so it makes sense he's not in their song intro about their plans for summer. Maybe he'll be in this one though?

[@kendraroth1276]

Remember Perry Is supposed to be a SECRET agent. And As implied by Candace’s “Mom! Phineas and Ferb are making a Title sequence!”. The brothers made the song.

[@ScrumpeyBros]

Doofenshmirtz doesn't need to be a villain to be brought back in the same way. Some of his inventions are merely made to be petty, and others simply fail at their function. The reformed Doofenshmirtz would make some device to help people, it would malfunction horribly or be hijacked by some other recurring villain, Perry would show up on behalf of O.W.C.A. to help Doofenshmirtz wrangle his invention, and the machine would unintentionally destroy or hide Phineas and Ferb's creation.

the thing that Phineas and Ferb is inextricably linked to in my head personally is this music teacher I had in middle school that was obsessed with the show. he would make lesson based around certain episodes (I vaguely remember him using the band love handle in one lesson), he would BLAST a speaker on the desk of any kid who was caught falling asleep playing the perry the platypus theme song. dude was *obsessed*.

[@GlitchItUp4031]

My theory is that Doof is trying to be good but his inventions go wrong so Perry needs to help.

[@ErikTheOkapiYT]

I think one idea that could work in the revival is in one of the episodes that was confirmed for Season 5. There's an episode called "Agent T (For Teen)"; could work as a plot focusing on Stacy & Perry; she knows about Perry being a secret agent since "Happy Birthday, Isabella" (Season 4).

[@jokerballstudios9208]

The question is not "Does this NEED to happen," it is more "Do we WANT this to happen?" Yes.

[@tomsparrow1823]

Okay but a more minor development that never got backtracked is that Stacy DID find out Perry's secret identity and I think that could make for an amazing addition to the B plot. Speaking of which I can see the B plot being like Doof not exactly getting retconed but instead struggling with doing good like he does in doof 101. Perry gets sent to stop him still but not because he's actively doing evil plans, because he's accidently tripping over himself trying to do good and failing so hard he swings wildly in the other direction.

15:30 I'm pretty sure Dan's stated a few times that this is intended to be a retro throwback 80's concert occurring in the early 2000s. But you wouldn't know that from the series itself. 20:50 The bugs actually dated back to the original pitches of Phineas and Ferb. Dan and Swampy had wanted FOUR storylines in every episode. The executives requested they be removed for being too confusing, which was genuinely a really good move. I also don't find them funny. (You can vaguely see seeds of their inspiration in these two semi-recurring talking bugs named Olga and Chicago Joe from VERY early season 1 when the show hadn't really settled on a tone yet)

Maybe instead of Doof returning to evil the B plot could be Doof and Perry teaming up to bring down LOVEMUFFIN as mayb Doff would feel guilty about creating a whole villain organization and then turning good and perhaps there will be times he’s tempted to go back k to evil, or his old evil friends just want to continue their efforts to rule the whole/ revenge on Doof for him helping OWCA in the last day of summer.

Hi! My best educated guesses is that we'll see some P&F movement this summer. Mind you, Dan was producing P&F at the same time as Hamster and Gretel, so it may have been slower at the start than most animated TV shows. For background, I work in film/TV as a member of IATSE MPEG and was an intern at DreamWorks and Disney Streaming back in 2022. Dan's been pretty open about the whole P&F production process on his TikTok throughout 2023 and 2024. The first day of the writer's room was May 3, 2023 and the first line recording day was Sept 11, 2023. The OG series had 47-65 episodes per season and a typical 2D animated episode in the 2020s takes about 8-12 weeks from writing to final product (and that's with outsourced animation). That means at least 55 weeks for P&F alone (multiple episodes are worked on simultaneously). But with the dual producing, that definitely slowed things down along with the SAG strike. Animation writers aren't covered by the WGA, they're covered by IATSE TAG (the animation guild) and I don't think Dan is a SAG member, hence his earlier recording day. However, Ashley Tisdale and other actors are members. So they had to batch record Dan and other non-SAG members. OR similar to their Disney Channel live action shows, P&F is non-union for actors and they may have recorded lines anyways. Either way, with the music and overall complexity of this show, I think they're rounding out production in July/August and will release the show in the fall, so we'll be seeing teasers as the summer progresses and a release date becomes clear.

No matter how many times you save the world, it always manages to get back in jeopardy. Sometimes I just want it to STAY SAVED. Y'know, for a little while. I feel like the maid. I JUST CLEANED UP THIS MESS. Can we keep it clean? FOR TEN MINUTES?

[@crystalmptacek]

My 78 year old dad got me into watching Phineas and Ferb. We really bonded over watching it together. This show will never get enough credit for how great it is.

[@BiggyToon]

Random fun fact: in the first Phineas and Ferb game, during a roller coaster ride you can actually end up in China through a hole in the ground

[@lizzarddoggo8775]

Simple solution for the B plots. Have some of doof's creations go rouge. Lets say that doof has a ton of machines that have activated and are working autonomously. We still get the backstories explaining why he made this, we still get a perry and doof where perry must stop a machine, doof is just now on the other side.

[@werderlebenslang4576]

Isn't Vanessa 16 during the show? So she would be in her early 20ies while ferb is 18. Still a bit weird but not 10 year difference weird.

[@GumSkyloard]

It's implied the boys are anywhere from 8 to 10. Which would mean a 6 to 8 year difference. Weeeeeeiiird.

[@erkantiryaki5542]

​@@GumSkyloard Still not 10.

Dude We’re Getting The Band Back Together is one of my absolute favorites as well, glad I’m not alone!

[@rafaelaveralugo7626]

So, one of the episodes in the revival is called "Lord of the Firesides", and I immediately recognized the fact that the title parodies the book "Lord of the Flies", so what if the Fireside Girls (Or heck, the whole gang) are stranded on an island like the boys in the classic novel? Sounds like a fun concept. Edit: In "Bully Bromance Breakup" we see that Phineas (And to a lesser extent, Ferb) goes into withdrawl when not inventing. I realized that if stranded on an island, Phineas and Ferb would be able to invent a way off, but what if Isabella keeps rejecting his help to earn a patch or something? Would be fun to see Phineas keep asking if she needs help

Fun fact OWCA means in polish "sheep" sadly in polish version the organisation is renamed OBFS to keep the orginal meaning of acronim

[@ethanestevez382]

You know, one way they could explain the technology difference is argue that crazy technology from Phineas, Ferb, and doof was collected and or used to jump start a rapid tech boom that allows they to have modern hardware by the next summer

[@braddrcrushalot3785]

@23:42 I really enjoyed season 1 of Milo Murphy's Law, but you are correct that the creators in season 2 seemed to be wanting to just go back to Phineas and Ferb and the less said about the Aliens finale arc is for the better.

[@anielkawamopowie3982]

Did you know that O.W.C.A in polish (owca) means "sheep" so in the polish dub there where also some jockes about it also including the "organization without a cool acronym"

I’d really like to see the OWCA files as the B Plot for the revival of Phineas and Ferb.

[@anonnymouscheese7820]

I feel like a good shift for the status quo or episodes like that is Stacy. Since she knows Perry's identity, and Doof knows she knows about that dynamic, they could do another episode where doof tries to find perry's identity, or episodes where stacy is a sidekick or keeping candace away from perry and doof. They have room for really interesting things there, I feel

26:09 Look, He's been gunning for this since he first saw her, let him have it.

[@RivertedYT-]

He said the first episode is the only episode without its new song THE THEME SONG????

[@digitalrecord6334]

I think people need to realize the reason why a lot of these shows worked was BECAUSE they were apart of our childhoods AND that they ended where they were. The only time i could justify making more episodes for a series that already ended would be if the show was either left on an unresolved cliff hanger or if the show had a nonsensical ending due to an early cancellation.

[@quinnthegamerking4481]

if the show still isn't out in 2025 you should make a Keyan Carlile style video for phineas and ferb where you go over every phineas and ferb episode in a really long vid

[@KaimArgonarEyyyy]

I watched this show dubbed in Finnish, and the fact that they translated/localized the songs so well is mindblowing in hindsight. The effort was incredible.

[@nikoboivin]

Re: no news since for the new show. Dan Povenmire makes shorts / tiktoks from the production quite often. He made a few while they were writing episodes, made one when they started recording the lines and on the first song recording, etc. From what we’re seeing there it seems to be going along well, apart from the fact that it was announced basically when it was signed and no team had been assembled.

[@seanalailima5929]

If they do comeback, I hope they continue the Milo Murphy's Law cliffhanger.

[@AestheticallyPleasingStudios]

13:56 Dan Povenmire actually explained this in one of this videos. The first date actually happened late 90s early 2000's and Linda and Lawrence were already single parents with the kids at home with babysitters. They made Love Handel an 80s hairmetal band purely because they thought it was funny.

[@triccele]

I feel Dan Povenmire is still chasing the level of success Phineas & Ferb had; Milo Murphy's law saw a huge dip and Hamster & Gretel was never really popular. The whole point on keeping it going is a terrible idea.

[@Master_drawer_99]

I have an idea that could work for the Dr. dofinsmirts delema, so basically, it would have dofinsmerts and pary teaming up to defeat a new big bad where dofinsmerts hast to comply because L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N took over his house and kicking him his wife, and his daughter out. So, to get back at love muffin, he uses his machines to get his home back, and in the first episode, pary would have thought dofinsmerts was doing something bad, but when hearing about his situation he complies to help him.

[@cantaloupegodling352]

They're probably going to have Doof turn back to evil and then renounce it again at the end of the second new season. They can keep this up for 8 more revivals.

[@jruler93]

I think it'd be fun to see episodic adventures with the boys inventing stuff like always, and serialized B plots chronicling Doof's training and advancement as an agent at the OWCA.

[@hospitalgal101]

Dan and Swampy had wanted the bugs to lead the C plot of Phineas and Ferb I think Disney told them it was too much, when they did the backdoor pilots they wanted to add them in.
