The ICONIC Rise of Kim Possible

One of the most iconic parts of the Kim Possible show was Ron Stoppable's arc. Not just romantically with Kim, but the fact that over time he actually develops into a competent fighter capable of holding his own against some of the most dangerous enemies in the series. And at the end, he becomes singularly more powerful than even Kim herself for the sake of protecting her. Mystic Monkey powers, go! Also Evil Ron was the first true sign of how insanely skilled he could be when he stopped getting in his own way mentally.

[@wolfboy20]

RIGHT!?????? It was one of the best examples of character development I've ever seen!!! And the fact that he kept being his weird goofy self! Man!! 😤😤😤

[@andrewhunter596]

That ending where he went full monke power was such a king moment in my childhood! Ron was the GOAT for nerd boys everywhere.

[@4sakend1]

The other thing about Evil Ron is that he is one of the few people who scared Shego, even when he turns a second time she is weary of him when that happens.

[@justanawkwardnerd]

I also always respected his confidence and bravery to go in anyway and help anyway he can as a coward AND a bumbling fool. That takes an insane amount of guts, and it's why I always liked and admired him before his growth.

[@borntoclimb7116]

I never thought about it until you brought it up but Kim Possible, Totally Spies, and seeing Starfire & Raven from Teen Titans definitely made me feel as a young girl that kicking butt and saving the world was something even I could do. The "stand up for yourself, your friends, and justice" plots never get old in general, but tackling the femininity of it can be difficult. This show has always deserved all of my attention and my little middle school self SCREECHED when Kim & Ron FINALLY became a thing.

[@emersonwright972]

I've always considered Kim's interactions with her various friendly contacts to be the best kind of interaction. Genuine humanity from genuine people. A kind of connection that people in societies all across the world seem to be losing lately.

[@siphillis]

One thing that always drew me to the show was how well Kim is animated in every scene, especially after Season 1. It's easy to fixate on her fight choreography, but her facial expressions, mannerisms, and overall body language is so detailed and precise. She just felt more believable and alive than other animated teenagers, and it's complimented wonderfully by a dynamic performance by Christy Carlson Romano.

[@DankMemeCenterX]

Been waiting for a retrospective on Kim Possible. Fringemas 2 has been great trip down memory line or in some cases a first exposure.

@@RandomSkyeRoses It may sound silly, but simply giving the show another chance. I was only 10 when the show first came out so it was probably a really stupid reason as to why I hated it. The halfway point was when I gave the show the second chance and ended up liking it, and towards its end was when I would religiously watch the reruns.

Kim Possible is at the very top of the list when it comes to favorite kids shows, and that says A LOT because I grew up during a time where there were endless amounts of great kids shows. I was absolutely enamored though. I had a little stuffed Rufus toy too. I don't know whatever happened to the little guy, but yeah. Huge fan. Also Stephen Silver was a huge inspiration to me. He's one of a few artists who inspired me to get into character design. Somewhere in my collection I have some self portraits I did of myself as a teen.

On Christy Romano's youtube channel is a table read of a brand new scene for Kim Possible written by the creators and read by the main 4 (Kim, Ron, Drakken, and Shego) and it's amazing! The Humor is on point and feels like the series never left while updating it to what's relevant today

[@JackedThor-so]

I always loved the dynamic Kim and Ron had in their romantic relationship. I'm someone who has an EXTREMELY low tolerance for insipid romantic subplots where the characters have no chill and are constantly in turmoil because both parties are too self absorbed to actually communicate. It's also really jarring to have gone from rewatching Total Drama, where all of the cannon pairings SUCK, to here where they're cute and compatible. Also, rev membering that Kim Possible is 20 years old is so mind numbing to me. It has a timeless feel to it so to realize it started the year after I was born is WILD.

[@andreasmeelie1889]

I was 8 almost 9 when the show first came out. Yet, I was 9 when I first watched the show. You're making me feel old! Lol

[@Obi-Wan_Kenobi]

Kim Possible is absolutely legend. It's the kind of show that deserves to be remembered for all of posterity and seen by modern kids who weren't even born yet when it initially came out. I first saw the show when it aired normally and rewatched it on Disney+ and let me just say, it holds up. It's action-packed and extremely funny. One there own, those features are uncommon but together, they are an absolute rarity! Animated shows with good, consistent action are not common in the modern tv landscape and neither are hilarious animated shows. But Kim Possible has both and that makes it immensely unique and entertaining. Everyone remembers Kim Possible it's true, but I don't think it's as appreciated as other Disney classics like, say, Phineas and Ferb. And to be clear, I *love* Phineas and Ferb, my only point is that I believe Kim Possible is also worthy of just nostalgia and recognition. Really hope modern kids discover Kim Possible on streaming and give it the resurgence of popularity it deserves.

[@timmckee6340]

This show is amazing, I like the humor, animation, and the characters. Kim’s a great protagonist and Ron is good as her sidekick. There maybe a few bad episodes but there are few and far between. In additions THIS show handled shipping very well, it’s not like other so many shows where the two leads end up together. Here they took their time, hinted at, and then confirmed that they liked each other liked that. They got together before the final season (I KNOW that “So the Drama” was supposed to be the finale) and when they got together, they didn’t waste time in saying on of them felt “unworthy” of the other, they were happy to be with each other and so were the fans.

[@annaisntcool]

this might be a hot take but i was a huuuge fan of kim possible as a kid and when i watched the premiere of So the Drama i was not down with Kim & Ron getting together. i loved them as friends and young me thought it was so cool to see a girl and guy as best friends with no romantic feelings. i get why it happened and i’m not that pressed about it. but i do think the early seasons built a really cool platonic love between Kim and Ron.

[@Dkgow]

I feel like they could have still succeeded at the So the Drama movie ending with Ron and Kim going to the dance as friends because they both knew that they would always be friends and have each others back no matter what. Including going to the corny dance as friends since they wouldn't have been able to have time to find a date. Then the rest of the season still could have worked.

@@snowfloofcathug I personally shipped Shego and Kim. However, I also shipped Ron and Yori, that ninja girl (I thought they made a better and more cute couple than Ron and Kim. The only problem with shipping Shego and Kim in the actual show would be the age issue. Kim would still have been a minor until her senior year and that depends on if she is 17 or 18 upon graduating. So, if there ever was plans for that, they probably couldn't do it. Also, I didn't like them putting Drakken and Shego together in the end; it didn't feel right.

I remember this show because I had the first Spy Kids movie on VHS & they had a preview for Kim Possible. From the second it showed Kim dodging lasers to the line *"KIM POSSIBLE SHE CAN DO ANYTHING!* Kim: except get to school on time" I was hooked! Combine this with Totally Spies and you got my interest in seeing kickass normal female heroes. Also shame that before this Nickelodeon shot down Constant Payne, I mean we could have had a three way dance between the three biggest animation networks featuring kickass female leads.

[@Gaarafan007]

This was one of my favourite shows as a teenager, especially at a time where I'd mostly watch anime or more live-action series and fewer cartoons because I was growing up. Shego was also one of my favourite TV villains (loved her dynamic with Dr. Drakken) and cartoon crushes. I was at first confused when I saw that final arc with Shego and Drakken getting together, but it was also kind heartwarming. One of my favourite episodes revolved around Shego becoming good by accident and being like an older sister for Kim. I also loved how she was the only one to realize that Kim + Ron = excellent team and used time travel to split them up and take over the world. The surprise twist that Future Shego was the reason for that and was the big bad instead of Drakken was delightful.

[@santosic]

That's the important distinction here. She doesn't hate Ron for who he is or what he does. When she can't do something he can, she blames herself never him. And that's why they work really well as a couple. Even as friends they had such a healthy and non toxic relationship.

[@marocat4749]

It generally inthe show when he is shown comptent in more creative ways and being emotional smart nerally, while being also insecure, and still gets chances to really shine and why they really fill in for each other. So even as friends they are just great an healthy partnr, why i never thought they needed romance, as that dynamic one rare is rare, and ron is actually really shown to be amazing while being very human and a dude that is also a softie, that is shown to be rally competent but insecure, and that h uses social competence to be th best too, while she is a bit a hardass. They really are both well done but together, amazing. , but why not friends to lovers.

[@gubjorgm.2259]

When I grew up I realised just how good of a role model Kim Possible was for me. I am so lucky to be born in a time where I had the opportunity to have this show influence me as a person. I like that she is a strong and bad ass character, but is also allowed to enjoy traditionally girly things, showing that those traditionally girly things does not influence how strong you are as a person. Usually when you have a "strong female lead" they aren't allowed to enjoy girly things because that is weakness. But not here. She is one of the reasons I wanted to be a princess ninja spy cuz princesses are pretty and cute and ninjas and spies are cool and kick ass. That was what I no joke wanted to be when I was younger XD

[@marygolds]

I always felt that a spin off about Ron's younger sister Hana felt like a logical next step. Especially as the premise is fairly easy to set up with the pre-established lore surrounding her and the timeline making her now a similar age to Kim and Ron's ages at the beginning of the original show.

[@hameley12]

That would be an awesome premise! Hana and KP's and Ron's son [insert name] duet would be really interesting. And then having a turtle pet and a naked mole rat as their intended pets/side kicks. Kim and Ron allow them both to go on adventures and have a high schooler, I don't know, Jay, being their version of Wade the smart and tech-savvy friend. Shigo or other memorable characters appearing but with their own family of 'baddy kiddos' bringing along some chaos to the new generation that being Hana and Nolan. Lol! No-Iam Stoppable?

Shows like Kim Possible and other big Disney channel shows I completely missed out on because we don’t have cable back then and I was more of a Cartoon Network fan, now all these years later I have a strong feeling of wanting to finally watch this

[@videomasta18]

I just love your videos man, throws me right back into my childhood. Which wasn´t always great, but better than my adult life tbh. Hope you are not overworking yourself with these daily uploads. Keep up the good work.

[@dbzkid4]

One of the many beloved cartoons of my childhood! My sis happens to share the same name as the heroine, so growing up I remember people calling out kim possible when they heard her name 😂 Good times!

[@ArtisticHH57]

I love the way this show essentially unified a bunch of fans to bring the show back. I miss this show so much.

[@justanawkwardnerd]

Wade is TEN??? I figured he was a bit younger, but not THAT much! Man, the tension and stress as we awaited and finally achieved the Movie really WAS insane. You just felt so much from YEARS of buildup and yearning for closure, that the movie was genuinely an emotional rollercoaster. It was all just so INTENSE, it really didn't hit the same if you hadn't been watching it around the time of its initial release. I didn't want see much of season 4, but I like how it wrapped up to graduation. That feels right, and a great way to close things off. The Swamp Thing episode traumatized me, honestly. Still freaks me out. I don't remember watching that origin episode, but I remember the game. Was obsessed with it, and I want to play it again. I remember the stress, lol. I always got stuck on the Monkey level!

[@enigma4526]

Wade was 10 for the first couple of seasons. In the last season, he was 12.

[@justanawkwardnerd]

@@enigma4526 The season with their graduation? I didn't watch much of it, but maybe I heard it then and got it mixed up. Thank you!

[@justincarawan-carawanco.pu1639]

18:59 Lilo&Stitch reference! Sooo glad you included that!

[@shadowjoker285]

Absolutely love Kim possible as I didn't watch it when it aired or was running. I watched it through the many dvds and the movie dvd as well, and I really loved it especially with it being on Disney + and everything

[@kodiakc6227]

Hey Jordan. Just thought I'd let you know your videos help me tremendously deal with the anxiety that stems from being schizophrenic due to the relaxed laid back positive nature of the way you read your script. Much love from Fort Collins 🙏🙏🤘🤘🫠🫠

[@ShadowWulfGaming]

I was made fun of for liking the show as a kid, but I still love it to this day and still remember the adventures to this day

[@autumnember7]

I LOVE this show. Watched it again recently as an adult and still love it. The kimmunicator sound is my notification sound. I was wondering when you'd cover this one

[@returnedtomonkey8886]

It still blows my mind that the voice of ron is also Terry from Batman Beyond and later on Bumblebee in Transformers.

[@KrishMortyJunior]

One of my favourite parts of Kim Possible is the fact that in Disney Heroes Battle Mode a mobile game featuring 200+ Disney characters there are 6 Kim Possible characters which include: Kim Possible, Ron Stoppable & Rufus, Dr. Drakken, Shego, Duff Killigan, and Monkey Fist!

[@w3lcom39]

Kim possible is a timeless show. I feel like it ages beautifully and this would be something I would let my kids watch some day.

[@santosic]

It would be one thing that'd make me excited to be a dad: one day getting the chance to show my kid(s) this awesome show that I loved when I was a kid.

[@ak_hoops]

I have to highlight this, I appreciate that you always mention the voice actors that made some of these shows what they are. Especially when the voices were so unique

[@mr.checkyourself4672]

One of the top greatest cartoons in history

[@d4s0n282]

not the greatest but it was good

[@davidfence6939]

Definitely not up with the greatest. You're showing heavy nostalgia. Take the blinders off.

[@OlyChickenGuy]

I LOVED Kim Possible! Also, I really dig the intro card for your Fringemas series- love those little, rolling ornaments.

[@りきぴ4649]

I had such a huge crush on Kim Possible in high school. Still love this show to bits

[@ki11ershark]

I loved Kim Possible when it came out, I remember watching it all the time. Even visiting family in another state at 13 and going upstairs to watch Kim Possible. I just rewatched it recently and it holds up so well, hilarious with great characters and character arcs. You're correct that the Kim/Ron was a big deal (though I liked looking at Kim/Shego fanart and fanfic more as a young unaware lesbian). The other cool thing about Kim Possible is that, if I'm remembering correctly, it was the first US produced show on a popular kids network with an older teen (age 14-17 as she ages in the show) female protagonist. There was Sailor Moon, but that was Japanese and hard to find dubbed/subbed versions unless you went to conventions, Daria, but it was on MTV not for kids (though I watched it), Braceface, but it was Canadian, was on the Fox Family Channel, and with a young teen female lead. Kim Possible was an especially important thing in femslash fandom for us younger lesbians at the time.

[@garrettviewegh677]

I’d argue that Draken and his partner Shego, where just as deep characters, making them excellent nemesis’ for Kim. Draken is a nerdy, college drop out that got picked on and felt unappreciated, thus giving him a big ego, feeling his potential infinite, when he often failed in his plans for world domination due to his own shortcomings, while Shego was a better villain than Draken, more confident and efficient, yet she often worked most with Draken because, as people and villains, they worked well together. Shego even did succeed where Draken failed: dominate the world as a villainous dictator. The writing even, at times, hinted that Shego and Draken were a thing, yet she’d often deny it. Though most viewers believed she secretly has feelings for the mad doctor buried deep down. With how often they bicker like a old married couple, it’s not hard to imagine them actually getting together in the future. Though, as professional villains, that’d no doubt cause complications mixing work with personal lives. I always liked the implication Shego and Draken, would/could be a couple. Even if not, they here hilarious together on screen!

[@nico1or1chris]

Woooo! Fringemas is back! Look forward to watching your vids with my kids and showing them the shows I grew up with

[@redwolf121990]

I'll occasionally think about the fourth season Valentines day episode where Ron's like "Oh, Valentines day? Nah, I don't celebrate. See, I never had a girlfriend on Valentines..." Pauses. Looks at Kim. Kim cocks an eyebrow. "Holy Cannoli, I have a girlfriend on Valentines Day!" and chuckle to myself. The bits here and there of them figuring out the new dynamic to their relationship in season four was fun. Plus, Shego, great villain with a fun background story. Both the whole "she used to be a hero on a team with her brothers before going bad" thing and the fact it's canon she has a degree in child development.

[@senshifuriouz1828]

thank you so much for it! I rewatched the series a few weeks ago and I still LOVE it. yeah, I'm using the Kimmuicator sound for Whatsapp 😆

[@donovan802]

I always wanted Kim and Perry to meet each other which, by extension, gives Drakken and Shego the chance to meet Doofenshmirtz and Vanessa to meet.

[@alkaratus9189]

Man it would be cross-over of all times

[@wrenwry]

petition to have Jordan Fringe cover The Future Is Wild (2007) animated series. based off of a documentary that speculated what flora and fauna would exist on earth millennia from now, the series follows a group of teens bouncing through time in an attempt to solve an impending ice age, finding crazy plants and animals along the way.

[@xolofloro314]

ngl, Kim Possible was my childhood cartoon crush. and, like you said, her character had a big influence on the kind of girls I've always been attracted to: strong and independent. shego was a baddie too looool

[@thefantasyfallstheatre1876]

Hell, i went to an IHOP the other day and heard the Kim possible ringtone! Just shows how many people still remember and appreciate Kim possible.

[@jbcatz5]

Kim’s a strong female lead because she’s written as a strong lead who happens who a teenage girl. The very premise flips stereotypes on their head, a cheerleader who works as a superhero because being a cheerleader gives her the athleticism to meet villains in combat. Her partnership with Ron is also very effective because they cover each other’s weaknesses. Ron is able to navigate some situations better than Kim, like when she can’t see someone beyond their wheelchair and keeps digging herself into a hole whereas Ron sees the guy as a person. Indeed, Ron, and Rufus, often prove the key factor in defeating villain schemes because he’s overlooked by them (Monkey Fist is the only recurring villain to consistently remember his name!).

[@kalinora3901]

I also liked how Monkey Fist became Ron's arch nemesis. Kim seemed to struggle with him while Ron managed to come out on top. And, unlike Monkey Fist, he managed to be able to use more of that power than MF. Also, the times where Ron got turned evil was funny and exciting to watch.

[@harrisonthorburn7415]

Shego and Raven, man. those were the days. I know exactly that feeling. Amazing video, keep them coming!

[@Bobb11881]

The show is also _insanely_ funny. When I finally watched it on Disney+, I found myself laughing almost constantly.
