Johnny Test

This is like plenty of cheap shows from the 2000s and 2010s, "Teen Titans Go, Powerpuff Girls," something to entertain kids, but can become boring and infuriating, but unlike those shows, this holds up very well. There is plenty of stuff in it that's easy to hate, but there's a charm within that's so great, it just overpowers everything.

Certainly not a GREAT cartoon, or even a good one. But....I can't say I hated this one. I really enjoyed it as a kid. Sure the characters were stupid, the plots were unoriginal, and the animation was very mediocre. But, there was something charming about it. It's stupidity and absurdness was what made me enjoy it as a kid. It doesn't hold up too well, but there are certain moments of this show I genuinely liked. One such episode was when a beekeeper villain tried to get rid of all candy for his healthier candy bar, and at the end of the episode Johnny and his pals stopped trying to defeat him. Instead they talked it out and came to an agreement that I thought was a very satisfying conclusion to the episode. Other episodes weren't so great, but I tend to remember the better ones. The Johnny X episodes are so ridiculously dumb, highlighted by "Power Poots" and such. But BOOOYYY did I like them as a kid, and I don't really remember why exactly. It was like a crossover with all the goofy villains of the show and I genuinely liked that. The 5th episode of this saga had a pretty sad ending that choked me up as a kid, I definitely recommend seeing it for yourself as it was one of the best in the series (by best, I mean an objective 8/10. Still a dumb episode, but charming).

My review is just here to balance out the overly negative and positive ones that make up the majority. I genuinely though this show was ok. Not good, but not bad. Just ok. I can think of shows that were much MUCH worse than this one for many reasons......

This show is EXTREME!!!!! What I like. I don't know why people don't like IT, but in my opinion, this show is VERY good.

The first time I watched an episode of Johnny Test I thought ''Now, why does this seem so familiar?''. Then I watched Fairly OddParents and remembered.

Now, some people are saying that it rips off Dexter's Lab. I don't think so, the premise of the show is that this kid who's dealing with problems decides to ask his genius sisters to invent something that will help him solve everything. The premise of Fairly OddParents is that this kid who's dealing with problems decides to ask his magical fairy godparents to poof up something that will help him solve everything. See? Dexter, on the other hand, has a completely different premise. Also, kookier here, the head writer of Fairly OddParents is the creator of Johnny Test.

Anyway, about the show itself, I think I like it better than Fairly OddParents (which wouldn't have been the case if Fairly OddParents hadn't turned into the definition of loud and obnoxious). The jokes are funny and I actually laughed a couple of times (that's rare, I don't do that very often).

Overall, a fun show.

Don't get me wrong here but Johnny Test is not that bad. Yeah yeah, the character designs might me ugly and unappealing, especially the background characters, Johnny might so irritating, and the rest of the characters may be annoying and unlikable, they're just so lousy that it makes them likable especially Johnny. I actually like how much of Johnny can be because it just winds up being funny to me. I like how whenever someone denies his demands he makes really silly points of what might happen if his demands aren't met. I like how his dad constant grounds his children constantly, i find it so funny everytime i see him appear. I like his dog, he's always there for Johnny regardless. I like his sisters, yeah sometimes their inventions might be abstract but you gotta admit, it is pretty cool. Everybody else is just so annoying that it makes it funny. I pretty much got a guilty pleasure from this show. i like it. its actually one of my favorites. the show its not that good, it could of been better i'll admit, everything seems fine to me. the show could of had higher ratings if everything in the show wasn't executed poorly. otherwise, i like this show.
