Its tongue in cheek humor is hilarious, the fantastical storylines engaging, and the characters are very likable not to mention cute. Perry the Platypus is my favorite. The invincible, oftentimes sarcastic, secret agent nemesis of the "evil" Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, reminds me of the movie, Dogma which bore the tagline: "Even God has a sense of humor. Just look at the Platypus." Methinks the creators of this cartoon took this line to heart and quite simply ran with it.
Now for the meatloaf. One episode of Phineas and Ferb takes place in a meatloaf festival. In this episode, Jamie Oliver guest stars-- both his cartoon self and his voice-- as a judge in said festival. It's a riot. Go watch.
After watching this episode I felt a strong urge to make meatloaf. Never made meatloaf before but since I did have some leftover sourdough bread that is otherwise petrifying in the ref, I figured it was about time I tried my hand in making one. Good thing it was easy.
