Kim Possible: A Very Possible Christmas Review

Goggles. All right, let's do it. Honey, it's

beautiful. It's all Jim and Tim. We just rerouted

the Middleton power grid. So we wouldn't blow

out the whole town like last year. Way to go,

Tweeps. Look, it's Ronald. Oh dear, I think we

blinded him. I'd better go get him before he...

Where are we in the possible family Christmas

Eve schedule just started lighting the house

is always first, right? Yeah, I caught that Eggnogs

after we sing carols, but before the Christmas

skit You're forgetting the most important tradition

of all The six tasks of snowman Hank every Christmas

This couch, that TV, and my favorite cartoon,

Snowman? It's on early. It's the 445 promo. For

20 years, the six tasks of Snowman Hank has warmed

the hearts of children everywhere. But not anymore.

Take a powder, Snowman, because this year Christmas

is a turbocharged collision of cool, live. Hello

and welcome to the 25 days of Tooncast Beyond

Christmas. I am TF2 and Mike. Joining me this

time is Steve Megatron, who has been here for

the last three days because we talked about...

That's impossible. No, it's not impossible. It's

very possible. yes steve is has been here for

the uh... for the last uh... no less two days

not three days because uh... doug did buzz late

year with me so yes he was here for the d c a

u stuff for bt s and j l u now we're talking

about kim possible a very possible christmas

this was uh... season two episode thirty seven

uh... that's my joke jackass I'm old I can use

it now. Oh You're only 30 I'll be 37 next year

In a row that's right as opposed to jumping specific

numbers. Yeah, that's right So we're here day

19 or almost to the main classics that everybody

loves Kim possible very possible Christmas. I

have loved this series since I first saw it on

Disney Channel We've never talked about this

series on to cast classic or to cast beyond so

we're gonna take a little bit of time here and

and and talk about the series proper basically

brief rundown is You know, this teenager, Kim

Possible, who's a cheerleader at Middleton High,

you know, is also a super secret agent kind of

person and she goes on missions and helps people

and has arch -fos and arch -villains and everything

else. And I just, have you ever, had you seen

this before I showed it to you? Yes. Okay. What

were your initial thoughts when you first saw

the series? Um, no, I mean I enjoyed it I I didn't

I mean it wasn't like my my go -to show but like

When it was first airing I remember watching

it just out of the fact that it was on Not necessarily

like it wasn't my favorite or anything. Like

I said, it's just it was on so I watched it It

was something to do Usually in waiting for a

show I was particularly waiting for in the first

place, but I mean I enjoyed it for what it was

Absolutely For me, I loved it. I thought it you

know it's one of Disney Channel's early 2000

shows it premiered 2002 2003 somewhere around

there and lasted till about 2007 and there have

been huge rumors last couple years about Them

bringing it back for a season 5. I actually remember

why I started looking at the series again was

because Disney The Disney Channel every so often

between 2 and 4 a .m They would do the Disney

replay where they would show you old content

that they don't play normally in other time slots

so you know this and even Stevens and all that

kind of stuff funny thing about this show is

it's pretty much a Boy Meets World reunion kind

of thing She got so many Boy Meets World people

on here. Will Friedel is Ron Stoppable, who is

Kim Possible's sidekick. You got Jason Marsden

voices his friend later in the series, which

kind of makes sense, seeing as how Eric and Jason

were friends in Boy Meets World. And then Ryder

Strong is the voice of Brickflag. Brickflag was...

Bonnie's boyfriend for a while there. And you

even got other Disney, up and coming Disney people.

You got Ashley Tisdale at the time and a bunch

of others. The cool thing for me with this series

with the voice cast is the fact that friggin'

Bart Simpson is the naked mole rat. Nancy Cartwright

is the voice of Rufus. Well, the thing is there's

a lot of names in here that are very familiar.

I mean, you have... A lot of like that's so Raven

people on here. You have Jennifer Hale you have

Candy Milo, Bill Fagerbecky Terry Strong, you've

got Tom Kenny Tom Kenny, Joey Fatone is in there

William Daniels, Mayim Bailik You have John Cho,

you have George Takei, Chris Summer, Adam West.

Ron Perlman is the voice of Warhawk. Goldberg,

Bill Bradgarity, Bradley Baker, Clancy Brown.

Fred Savage. So many awesome voices. I mean,

there's just so many memorable people. Jess Harnell.

James Arnold Taylor, Fred Willard. Yeah, so many

good ones. John O 'Hurley. Yeah, JK Simmons,

John O 'Hurley, so many cool ones. Very, very

awesome. I love this series. I think it's very

funny, but we're here to talk about the Christmas

episode that they did, a very possible Christmas.

So in this one, Ron Stoppable is disappointed

that his favorite Christmas special, Snowman

Hank, has been cancelled. and replaced with extreme

xmas as a gift to kim ron decides to foil dr

dracken's christmas plot himself so that she

can enjoy time with her family but as always

when he and dracken get trapped in the north

pole kim followed by the the possibles has to

go around the globe to search for him and ron

discovers that dracken is a big fan of snowman

hank as well and they kind of have a temporary

truce and everything else. I like this episode.

I think it's a fun episode in the middle of season

two here. I just really, really enjoyed it. I

love all the voice acting. I love the action

of this episode. And, you know, since we're talking

about Christmas specials and certain things not

playing, I remember certain years and certain

specials like the Grinch or Charlie Brown's Christmas

or Rudolph that some years they wouldn't play

because the TV station either lost the rights

or the rights went somewhere else. or there were

times where some of the specials weren't on,

so I can kind of feel Ron's pain. What did you

think after you watched this again? I mean, because

I'd never seen this particular episode before.

No, I thought it was pretty good. I thought that

it was kind of interesting seeing the sidekick

take the front roll for once and then... The

calamity that ensues because the villain and

him are both inept. Oh, yeah So the fact that

they have to work together and then they're just

hanging out like brothers like they just don't

care like Because they're like, it's Christmas.

We're stranded It's just yeah, it was it was

funny watching them try and figure out what they

were gonna do Absolutely I thought it was so

funny. So Kim and her family have this very regimented

schedule for their holidays. First, they light

the house. Second, they sing carols and then

they make homemade eggnog and all this and all

that and everything else. I love how Ron just

comes stumbling in and it reminds me so much

of... National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation,

you know, because 25 ,000 twinkle lights. Clark,

those little lights aren't twinkling, you know.

So that's what that reminded me of. The whole

plot with Draken. It's an alright plot. I'm really

not sure where, what the heck he was going for

originally, but I like it. I think it's interesting.

And he's a villain that... While he does He does

present a a Threat at the same time. He's more

of a comical villain than than anything else

So yeah, I mean I can get that he's he kind of

reminds me of a pre dr. Doofensh Dr. Doofenshmirtz

Yeah, yeah, he kind of does the cool thing about

that is though with dr. Dracken is He's voiced

by Bender of all people John Dimash And yeah,

you're right he kind of does have a dr. Doofenshmirtz

face and Ferb kind of thing because of the simple

fact that If you watch more of the series you

find out that he was Kim's father's high school

classmate and they always used to make fun of

him and that kind of thing and everything else.

uh... with this christmas episode i really don't

like i said i thought it was very well dot but

you know the main stick of the entire series

of all the all the gimmicks although all possible

gimmicks that they have and and not gimmicks

in a bad way but just you know the standard format

that they use they played it up well with the

christmas angle and then they kind of put a twist

on it with allowing the entire family to get

on the phone to try to find ron because they

launched this whatever the hell invention he

has the Dragonator 7000 or Doom buggy one or

whatever it is and then at one point when he

and Ron are in space they launch all the escape

pods So they then have to basically pull a Star

Wars get in the trash compactor even though it's

just a trash can space escape pod. And they,

you know, shoot back down to earth. And that's

when, as I said, Kim and her family start going

searching the globe for all of these pods. And

I just I thought it was very fun, a very interesting

way to have a Christmas cartoon, especially for

this series. And then, of course, at the end,

all the snowman Hank stuff comes back around

and. We have a truce and everybody has dinner

and meals and everything else. I think the coolest

thing about, one of the coolest things about

this series is Drakens sidekick Shigo. In the

beginning of this episode, she's like, where's

the sunblock? Why do you need sunblock Shigo?

I know that's a horrible impression, but I'm

on vacation. See you later. And he's like, don't

you want to stay and see the culmination of all

of our work? She's gone. She doesn't give a crap.

And as the episode progresses, come to find out

that Draken actually paid for her entire vacation.

She's like, oh, maybe I should have answered

the phone earlier. Maybe he left a message and

that's how we get. I just love the way that her

and she going, Kim, I love the battles that they

do. I just love the entire action piece of this

series. I think it's so fun. Anything else you

want to say on this one? No, I mean like I said,

I just I think it's it's a fun episode it Kind

of gives the the hero a rest and Makes the You

know it makes it makes them have to kind of play

second fiddle for once which is kind of nice.

Yeah absolutely Really really dig it So yeah

folks, I think that's gonna do it for today and

I know this is a really short one here But the

next five the next six days We're gonna get into

some crazy crazy classics. I did make a little

bit of a change because I personally Realized

that I forgot to include one on either this year

or next year's 25 days to cast me on Christmas

and I flipped I flip -flopped a few things so

coming up you're going to hear a Charlie Brown

Christmas with Steve and hopefully Optimus Solo,

if Optimus Solo's around. How the Grinch Stole

Christmas with Steve, myself, and probably my

fiancee Jennifer, Spicy Demon. Then Jen and I

are gonna talk about Grandma Got Run Over by

a Reindeer. I've gotta basically twist her arm

to do that. Of course, she's had me watch so

much stuff since we've been together, so I think

one Christmas special at once not gonna kill

her. Day 23 was going to be Rudolph and Frosty

Christmas in July. I'm just not feeling that

and I have one that's I have two cartoons that

are more Important than that one that I replaced

it with that's actually gonna be day 18 now and

in next year's 25 days to cast around Christmas

I replaced it with Pluto's Christmas tree and

Mickey's Christmas Carol. I cannot believe I

made two years of this Special event thing here

on two gas beyond for 25 days of Christmas two

of my favorites absolute favorites I left on

both years, and I'm like screw it. I got to rectify

that so I believe General be joining me for that.

I don't know if you want to join me for that

as well. I don't know if you've ever seen those

Pluto's Christmas tree is basically it's one

that I've seen ever since I was a kid It's basically

Mickey goes out chops down a Christmas tree the

Christmas tree. They chopped down is the home

of Chippendale As the rest of the cartoon progresses

Chippendale give Pluto hell And ever everybody

has to have seen Mickey's Christmas Carol, right?

Mm -hmm. Okay. All right Well, there's screw

have an easier scrooge and yep. Yep. Yeah Goofy

is as Jacob Marley. Oh my nose And then day 24,

obviously, is the classic Frosty the Snowman,

which Steve will be with me and Jen as well.

And then day 25 is Rudolph, so that's what's

coming up this year on Tooncast Beyond 25 Days,

Tooncast Beyond Christmas. I hope everyone has

enjoyed what they've heard from us so far. Again,

I want to say that I apologize if some of these

are not very long This is the first time we're

doing this. So next year I have a much more flushed

out plan of the way the episode each episode

will go and You'll hear a teaser about that at

the end of day 25 this year. So Anything else

you want to say before we get the tinsel out

of here? Nope All right tune in tomorrow folks

when we Try to spruce up that Charlie Brown tree

cuz wow It's a Charlie Brown Christmas coming

up next on day 20 here on to cast beyond 25 days

to gas beyond Christmas Shego Chief, one stolen

battery thing. Fleece Navidad. Excellent, Shego.

Drag Force One is complete. And this time, Kim

Possible will not get in the way. Okay, why is

that? Because it is Christmas! The one time of

the year she is off -duty, busy with her twinkle

lights and mistletoe and carols and roast beasts

and frim -franglers and zoob -zooblers! Oh, Dr.

D. What? You've stopped using words. Oh. Right.

Right. Where's the sunblock? In the mud room.

Wait! What do you want sunblock for? Uh, I'm

on vacation now, remember? But don't you want

to stay to see the culmination of everything

we've been working toward? She - She go. She

go. Fine! I'll get me some me time! Soon! I,

Dr. Dracken, will rule the Yule! The world will

when I rant to myself.
