Fanboy & Chum Chum is an American animated comedy television series created by Eric Robles for Nickelodeon. It is based on Fanboy, an animated short created by Robles for Nickelodeon Animation Studio and Frederator Studios, that was broadcast on Random! Cartoons. The series was first broadcast on October 12, 2009, on Nickelodeon as a preview, then officially premiered on November 6, 2009, after SpongeBob's Truth or Square. In the show, two slow-witted would-be superheroes attempt to rid their town of Galaxy Hills of evil, while annoying everyone around them.^[1]

The series premiere drew 5.8 million viewers.^[2] The second episode was watched by 5.4 million viewers.^[2] The series won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Class Animated Program at the 38th Daytime Emmy Awards.^[3]

The series' initial release finished on November 2, 2012. One episode, "Brain Freeze", was released on DVD in 2011 instead of being broadcast on television. It finally aired on July 12, 2014.^[4]

The theme song was written by Brad Joseph Breeck and performed by an experimental punk band, The Mae Shi.^[5]

Plot

The series centers around Fanboy and Chum Chum, a pair of hyperactive, odd, energetic, and slow-witted best friends enthusiastically obsessed with superhero comics, particularly those featuring their favorite superhero Man-Arctica, who also apparently seems to double as a holiday figurehead parodying Santa Claus within the series. Many episodes are based around comical parodies of famous films or contain countless references to popular culture, chronicling Fanboy and Chum Chum's exaggerated, surreal daily experiences and misadventures relating to dilemmas in which they have entangled themselves or the surrounding characters' utter infuriation with their irritating antics.

Characters

Main

Fanboy ("Lance" Tobias Cranapple lll) (voiced by David Hornsby) is an enthusiastic fan of comic books, fantasy, science fiction and action figures. He and Chum Chum are never seen without their costumes nor are their parents addressed.
Chum Chum ("Sir" Edmund Chummery) (voiced by Nika Futterman and Nancy Cartwright in the pilot from Random! Cartoons) is Fanboy's best friend and sidekick. Although he is younger than the other main characters, he is still in the same class as them. Show creator Eric Robles explained on the Nickelodeon message board that this is because Fanboy snuck him into his class and the teacher never noticed the age difference.^{[citation needed]} Chum Chum is extremely energetic and high-spirited.

Supporting

Kyle Bloodworth-Thomason (voiced by Jamie Kennedy) is an insecure pre-teen wizard who loathes Fanboy and Chum Chum for their lack of intelligence, but secretly enjoys their friendship. Kyle was expelled from his wizarding school, Milkweed Academy, for turning his teacher Professor Flan into a raspberry flan, calling him a "Delicious old fool". Kyle is now reluctantly enrolled in Fanboy and Chum Chum's public school, where he has very few friends other than Fanboy and Chum Chum. Fanboy and Chum Chum typically forget that Kyle has wizardly powers, and the effort of reminding them usually infuriates Kyle. He speaks in a British accent. As Kyle struggles to be re-admitted to Milkweed, he often suffers painful indignities, often a result of Fanboy and Chum Chum's actions.
Leonard "Lenny" Flynn-Boyle (voiced by Wyatt Cenac) is the accident-prone junior manager of the Frosty Mart. He finds Fanboy and Chum Chum irritating and sometimes gets a "stress twitch" when annoyed by them. His first appearance was in "Dollar Day".
Boogregard "Boog" Shlizetti (voiced by Jeff Bennett)^[6] is a short-tempered bully who likes to "bop" people and is obsessed with the video game Chimp Chomp (a parody of Donkey Kong), which he plays at the Frosty Mart, often instead of working. Boog's voice is a parody of John Travolta's "Vinnie Barbarino" character.
Mr. Hank Mufflin (voiced by Jeff Bennett) is Fanboy and Chum Chum's grouchy yet often playful teacher.
Ozwald "Oz" Harmounian (voiced by Josh Duhamel)^[7] is the owner of the local comic shop, Oz Comix. Oz is a friend of the boys, who consider him "the most knowledgeable human being ever," though he is a nerdish know-it-all who lives with his elderly mother.

He is a pale, skinny, gnarled old man who wears a dark hooded shirt. Poopatine rides around in a sentient cart named Brenda. He can understand all of the robotic noises Brenda makes, and often talks to her. Poopatine has a strong hatred of gum and saltwater taffy.

Yo (voiced by Dyana Liu) is another of Fanboy and Chum Chum's classmates. She is happy-go-lucky and loves her Yamaguchi (a parody of Tamagotchi) digital pets, especially a cat named Scampers. She has a rather insane crush on Chum Chum, and often wants to play with him like he's a toy. Though she can be overly obsessive, she is normally nice.
Necronomicon (voiced by Jeff Bennett) is a talking book of spells who is a companion to Kyle, and nags him about the moral implications of his choices.
Sigmund The Sorcerer (voiced by Jeff Bennett) is Kyle's more successful and skillful German wizard rival from Kyle's former school for wizards, Milkweed Academy.

Reception and achievements

Reviews

Aaron H. Bynum of Animation Insider called Fanboy & Chum Chum "a fun show that deserves a good look. The quality animation helps counterbalance the immense amount of dialogue from the series' chatty characters, and the sheer comedy of marginally competent comic-loving kids helps outweigh what might otherwise be a binge of geeky annoyance. But overall, Fanboy & Chum Chum is a lot of fun."^[10] Variety praised the series' "bright, energetic look and even an appealing premise in theory".^[11] David Hinckley of NY Daily News gave the series three stars out of five, and said that "it's good [but] might not be the next SpongeBob".^[12]

KJ Dell'Antonia of Slate found the main characters irritating, and thought the whole concept was unoriginal, with "many tired jokes and not enough of that kind of mild satire to make this play in our house".^[13] Joly Herman of Common Sense Media gave the series 3 out of 5 stars; saying that:

If you're looking for deep content and lasting lessons, then this show isn’t for you – or for your kids. Precious little of it can be applied to reality, especially when it comes to Fanboy and Chum Chum’s experiences at school, where they enjoy nearly free rein to goof off and hardly put effort into their work. Even the nature of their friendship may be troubling to some parents, since Fanboy’s control over his pal’s actions sometimes verges on bullying. But there's no doubt that it's entertaining. So if your young tweens can check their sense of reality at the door, this silly show offers a fun depiction of the wild imagination that they probably share with the main characters. For younger kids, though, the blurry line between fiction and realistic lifestyles may be a little confusing.^[14]

Ratings

The series premiered on November 6, 2009, after the SpongeBob SquarePants film Truth or Square.^[2] The broadcast ranked number three of cable programs that week and number two of the night.^[2]^[15] The premiere was watched by a total of 5.8 million viewers.
