Johnny Test

You gotta love Netflix for introducing my kids to cartoon they would have never watched otherwise. One of these shows is Johnny Test. It's an awesomely funny, ridiculous show that entertains all four of us. The lyrics to the theme song tell you exactly what the show is about:

(J-J-Johnny Test) (J-J-Johnny Test)
Got a head of fiery hair and a turbo charged backpack!
(Johnny Test)
His genius sisters use him like a lab rat.
(Johnny Test)
A neat-freak dad and a super-busy mom!
(Johnny Test)
The boy's best friend is a talking dog.
(Talking dog!)
Extreme team teen and an air breathing shark,
Mega-action game controller skating in the park,
pheromone booster, Bling-Bling, what do you think of this?!
(What do you think of this!)
Johnny Test!
Johnny Test!
This is a life of a boy named, "Johnny Test"!
(huh-huh)
Johnny Test!
Johnny Test!
This is the life of a boy named, "Johnny Te-e-e-e-est"!

Now you see the greatness just from the song, but it leaves out when his sister turn him into a super hero and his power is Super Power Poots. I'm sure that you can you use your imagination to figure out what that entails. If not, go to your Netflix and watch some Johnny Test. It's awesome.

I will leave you with the theme song!

Netflix

I recommend Netflix to everyone. Everyone should have it if they like to watch movies and tv shows. It doesn't always have the most recent episodes on the instant view but it does have entire seasons of shows for you to watch.

It's also cheap. We have the one DVD at a time plus unlimited instant view and pay $10 a month. This to me is totally worth it. Especially since it helps me completely monitor what my kids are watching instead of them watching random tv channels. My favorite part though is that there is no commercials to suck my children in. Neither Sidda nor MJ knows what is popular when it comes to toys or cereals or anything else. If we are at someone else's house and they happen to be watching television and a commercial comes on they are confused. They really don't know what they are and I am happy about that.

I have discovered new shows that I've loved through watching through Netflix and have tried out shows that I would never have watched in other circumstances. Mainly British TV, which I love.

If you do not have netflix, get it, it's so worth it. And they let you do a free trial to test it out which it awesome!

Phineas and Ferb

Phineas and Ferb is probably one of the best cartoons on TV right now. It’s great for both kids and adults. I can sit and watch it with my five and two year old and laugh right along side with them. It’s not a stupid funny show but creative and awesome!

The show is about a pair of super smart brothers who are trying to find things to do each day of the summer. The don’t just hang out in the back yard paddling pool but instead somehow create a beach. The build rollercoasters, rockets, time machines and so much else. Their older sister Candace spends all her time trying to tell their mom what their doing but fails everytime. Each episode features at least one song, sometimes more that are just awesome.

This is my favorite song:






It's just plainly awesome! And there is more where that comes from. If you want to enjoy an easy cartoon that the whole family can watch I recommend this.
