This was a show that didn't need to be made. It was based off a movie that also didn't need to be made(at least not without a few rewrites). The show focuses on a kid named Jimmy(Dominic James) who has to deal with the aftermath of his brain transplant and how it affects him in his daily life.
This causes him to hallucinate characters he grew up with much to the confusion of others. In addition to having to deal with school, he also has to deal with a nut trying to steal his brain as well as his wacky family. The one that stands out most is his adopted sister named Yancy. I have to admit I had a crush on her and she along with the cartoons were the only good thing to come out of this show.
Otherwise, this show was forgettable. The jokes aren't funny, the acting's stiff(though I can't blame the actors as they do what they can with the bland script), and the stories have potential but just aren't interesting. This's definitely one of Cartoon Network's worst shows aired. Looking back, I don't know how I watched it as a kid.
It's not awful or offensive, just dumb and forgettable. With being said, skip it. Leave it to be forgotten.

I thought Big Bag was the ONLY live-action show from Cartoon Network. But no, years later, they decided to make MORE live-action shows. From what I have heard, this show is even WORSE than the movie. I know it was back in 2007, but that was when Cartoon Network TRULY began to suck after the Boston Bomb Scare. No wonder Chowder was the new show that saved Cartoon Network, before AND after a lot of our favorite shows ended. The animation in the movie pilot was better than the animation in the series. The animation in this show is horrible. This makes lesser sense than the movie it was based on. It's retarded. No wonder this show lasted for only 20 episodes. This show was created by Tim McKeon and Adam Pava, who previously wrote for Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and the Life and Times of Juniper Lee, and also creators of Weighty Decisions (a short segment that was featured in Cartoon Network's OTHER short-lived series Sunday Pants). I'm glad Cartoon Network is no longer allowed to produce anymore live-action shows, but still. This show is, without a doubt, one of Cartoon Network's worst shows of all time.
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.
My brother and I are very into lost media. We enjoy watching old movies and shows that were once lost. But this show is just the worst. I wish it was never found. I don't understand this show! WHY IS HIS SISTER AN ALIEN?! WHY IS SHE DATING A WEREWOLF?! WHO IS THE CREEPY GUY CREATING MONSTERS AND ROBOTS IN THEIR HOUSE?! WHY IS IT PEOPLE UNDERSTAND HE SEES CARTOONS? WHY IS THERE AN ANNOYING MAFIA KID RUNNING THE SCHOOL?! WHY IS EVERY ADULT AN IDIOT? THIS SHOW IS TERRIBLE. DO. NOT. WATCH.
The movie for this show in my personal opinion was enjoyable. But this series is not.
The humour is forced like there is nothing there.
The whole concept of the show is absolutely stupid.
But at least it's not unbearable like Teen Titans Go!
The acting is good though.
But don't watch this show.
