''Kim Possible'' was an American Animated Television Series about a teenage crime fighter who has the task of dealing with worldwide, family, and school issues every day. The show is fairly action-oriented, but also has a permeating light-hearted atmosphere and often lampoons conventions and clichés of the secret-agent and action genres.


PREMISE

Kim (voiced by Christy Carlson Romano ) often finds herself crossing the globe in an attempt to rescue people, stop crimes, and battle Supervillain s... all the while being expected to come home and complete her homework in time. Kim Possible attends Middleton High School, and is captain of the school's Cheerleading squad. The red-haired crime fighter cannot save the world alone. Assisting her is Wade, a technical genius that she stays in touch with via a her "Kimmunicator" (which has some fantastic abilities of its own), and who rarely shows himself in person. Alongside her is Ron Stoppable , her goofy, wisecracking sidekick and best friend (and, later, boyfriend), and his scene-stealing pet Naked Mole Rat , Rufus (occasionally her friend Monique helps out and more often than not Kim's troublesome but genius twin brothers Jim And Tim Possible will come to her aid in some other way).


PRODUCTION

According to creators ''. The romantic theme also continues in season four.

The series premiered on , 2006 . The show has widely been praised for its smart dialogue, fluid animation, and engaging, well-written characters (both heroic and villainous).

On February 22 , 2005 , after 3 seasons and 65 episodes, the show ended production. Due to the popularity of the series and grassroots operations by dedicated ''KP'' fans, Disney announced on November 29 , 2005 , that the show would be renewed for a fourth season, which debuted on Disney Channel on February 10 , 2007 .

The show's title music, "Call Me, Beep Me", is sung by Christina Milian . Much of its artistic style is due to character development by artist Stephen Silver .

''Kim Possible'' also airs on is called Robin Trépide ("Intrépide" meaning some kind of a courageous adventurer).

Team Possible

, Mr. and Mrs. Possible , Ron , Rufus , Kim , Shego , Dr. Drakken , Monkey Fist , Señor Senior Sr. , Adrena Lynn , Señor Senior Jr. ]]
  • Kim Possible — The team leader, this red-haired crime-fighter who saves the world also tries to live a normal teenage life, dealing with everyday problems. She has been Ron's best friend since Pre-K, and has been his girlfriend since the night of their junior prom (Season 3). Naturally, her name makes reference to the word 'impossible.' Kim's dialogue tends to be peppered with not-so-typical teen Slang ; for example, "So not the drama" and "No big", as well as the series' catchphrase, "What's the sitch?" (situation).

  • Ron Stoppable — Kim's best friend since Pre-K, partner, and now boyfriend; he also saves the world from time to time. His name is a play on the word 'unstoppable'.

  • Rufus — Ron's pet Naked Mole Rat , considered a member of the team — in fact, he often proves to be more competent than Ron or even Kim on occasions. (When translated into Latin, Rufus means red-haired.)
