The Fairly OddParents

[Voxxyn]

Not a bad show at all, but never my favorite either. The extremely hyperactivy of the episodes and jokes is what stops me from being a big fan. While I'm sure many enjoy it(and good for them), I personally can only take it in small doses; anything more just drives me nuts.

I can see plenty of similarities between Timmy and Mac, as they're both outcasts who find very unlikely friends, but they're also quite different. Mac is a very mature, smart, sweet, shy and lovably vulnerable kid with a true heart of gold, and somebody I can easily sympathize with when something bad happens to him.

Timmy... I don't hate him, but I can't say I care much about him. I'm sure I'm not supposed to due to the show's shameless "out-and-out crazy ballistic" tone(Unlike Foster's relatively down-to-earth nature), but as a person, I find him to be somewhat rude, obnoxious and even bratty. It's as if he's allowed the fairy godparents' powers get to his head. And I certainly can't sympathize with his attempts at wooing Trixie, because quite frankly, she's an absolutely horrible person that epitomizes many things wrong with teenage girls.

There are some really funny characters, though, like Crocker and the Arnold Schwarzenegger-like fairy. And I've always wanted to see what would happen if Vicky met Frankie
