10 Best Phineas And Ferb Episodes
1. Summer Belongs To You!
This two-parter is 46 minutes long and boy, do they make every minute count. Summer Belongs To You! is the Phineas and Ferb special episode to top all Phineas and Ferb special episodes, giving us terrific writing, hilarious gags, and undeniably infectious songs.
Yes, the songs in this one are again great, especially the final song Summer Belongs to You which is considered by many fans to be one of the show's greatest songs. This song also contains some of the show's most positive and optimistic lyrics such as "As soon as you wake up, you gotta make your move" and "Time is what you make of it, so take a chance."
And really, isn't that ultimately what makes Phineas and Ferb the fantastic show it is: its irresistible optimism? Over and over again, the show tells kids to make the most of their days, to never underestimate the power of creativity and imagination, to stop waiting for adventures to come to them and instead create the adventures themselves. These are lessons even adults need to be reminded of every now and then. Phineas and Ferb didn't wait for an opportunity to ride a rollercoaster or have a treehouse robot or travel the world — they created those opportunities themselves.
Sure, most of what they can accomplish in a day is really only possible in a cartoon series, but the main message here is that your days are only as boring as you allow them to be. Life is what you make of it, so do like Phineas and Ferb and make it awesome.
