Out of Jimmy's Head

In all honesty, the shows premise was slightly clever. The movie's premise was OK as well. It was based on an old myth that Walt Disney's brain was frozen to one day "reanimate" him and then hidden somewhere in a ride in Disneyland. This show takes that idea and tries to work with it. Making it so that whoever has the brain of the brand-x Walt Disney will see the cartoons he created. That is were the cleverness ends. This show took an interesting idea and murdered it.

The people above me have already dissected how awful the show is, and done a pretty good job of it. I'm just reviewing this just to make sure YOU the reader know that this show is probably the most horrible thing you will see on Cartoon Network.

This show is the most cringe worthy, dumb, and most pointless thing Cartoon Network has ever released! The show is a spinoff of the 2006 film Re-animated. The film itself was just..decent??

But this show is probably the cheapest budget show CN ever produced. There is lots of "cheap jokes" and other juvenile humor, and the characters are SO OFF MODEL. I'll say this, Golly in the film is meant to be a narcissistic. But in the show he's just a cringy weirdo that's obsessed with killing people. There is SO MANY ERRORS IN THIS SHOW, THERES EVEN A FRAME OF ANIMATION MISSED IN EPISODE 8!

DONT WATCH IT.

I thought the movie was ok as a kid and I thought the show was interesting but as the show went on it began to get more and more stupid. The show's about a kid named Jimmy (Dominic James) who can see cartoon characters due to having his brain replaced with a deceased cartoonist. In addition to having to deal with the hallucinations he also has to deal with his wacky family and school with the help of his goofy friend named Craig (Jon Kent Ethridge II) and crush Robin (Tinashe Kachingwe). This doesn't sit well with his son Sonny Appleday (Matt Knudsen) who goes through great lengths to get his brain so he can be a cartoonist himself. There's not a lot of funny jokes in this show, the acting's either over-the-top or stiff, and while the ideas are interesting they never really go that far. The only things I liked about this are the cartoon characters and Jimmy's adopted sister Yancy (Rhea Lando) who's an alien. Aside from that this's one of Cartoon Network's worst live-action shows. Live-action's not really their strong point. It didn't last that long and it's not hard to see why. It goes without saying but skip it.

Just as bad as Re-Animated. Changing Craig and Robin's actors was probably the only good thing (because they were a TAD better than the ones in reanimated). Let's think of ways it rips off of other shows. So the show focuses on a kid who was hit by a train (sort of a rip off of My Name is Earl (way funnier than this sh*t)). He gets a new brain, which is the brain of Milt Appleday (basically the whole idea is Walt Disney). Now I'm honestly not a Disney fan, but I'd take those over this. Anyway, a guy named Sonny who turns out to be Milt's son is trying to steal the brain with lame ideas that blow up in his face (Rip off of Looney Tunes?). The sister is an alien, adopted by an astronaut who is Jimmy's mother, and his father is the principal of his school. All of these feel like a ripoff of Family Guy (wacky dysfunctional family) and American Dad (alien relative). And last, and maybe least you have Jimmy, who's the kid that got a new brain after being hit by a train. He sees random cartoon characters who do nothing, but bounce around in his head and contribute nothing to him, but annoyance and bad advice. But, that's not the worst part. The fact that it aired on Cartoon Network AT ALL is bad. It's called Cartoon Network for a reason. It's not supposed to air live- action crap like Nickelodeon does. The laugh track wasn't a good thing it just made the show worse than it already was. So you'd think Cartoon Network would've learned after this, but they didn't. Now we've got the Annoying Orange to go with it. Man, I miss good old Cartoon Network that only aired cartoons and not live-action programming with acting that makes any TV made Syfy Channel or Steven Seagal movie look like gold. If I could vote this 0 I would, but it's not happening. Seriously, Jimmy's actor was better off on ER. I'm sure everyone's happy this was cancelled.

I gotta say that this was the worst show everyone ever heard of and it was bad very bad and i gotta say the charater designs were really awful during cartoon networks airing of live action crap i mean why do we even agree to cartoon networks plan in the first place.
