Danny Phantom Audience Reviews

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
final_flight26 There's a reason the (very few) people that don't enjoy the show have their reviews poorly rated on here... because their arguments just don't hold up. One of the top 5 best Nicktoons of all-time, without a doubt. Danny is a likable, witty character. He doesn't always win, and that's what makes him lovable. He deals with a messed-up family, getting bullied constantly, and his own teenage insecurities but still, in the end, remains a kind-hearted enough to focus on helping others, no matter the cost. He does slip up by trying to get revenge on bullies or making himself the Ultimate Enemy, but he learns from his mistakes and becomes more powerful by doing so, such as the pre-mature development of his Ghostly Wail superpower. That's the great part about this show--it has a moral along with being witty and smart, and he has his quirks and weak moments. One of the most three dimensional characters Nick's ever created. The only reason the ratings ever went down was because Nickelodeon moved it around and never built up hype with toys and such like they do with other shows. Wonderful, original show (how many other times half you heard of someone that can ~~~turn into a ghost/other supernatural creature and return to normal afterwards?) My two complaints are that everything works out ~~~too conveniently in the end, like someone showing up to save Danny's behind last minute or them always finding a way to erase the memories of anyone who learns of Danny's powers, and that Sam would probably be considered a poser. But it is a Nicktoon. Forever wishing it was back on the air, SSxx
twinklestars16 Danny Phantom is the same person who created the more imaginably real Fairly Odd Parents. The story revolves around a guy who is half-ghost, half human, fights monsters and ghosts and still wants to live a Normal life with his two best friends, a sidekick and the individualist"-turned love interest. This is how you meet TeenNick with Ghostbusters.Well, the idea of the plot seems too obvious, which basically involves a teen hero who tries to create a double life. Though real high school isn't exactly as angst-ridden and stereotypical as Casper High, nothing truly significant happens but fight ghosts and your usual 2000's Nickelodeon teenager scenes. Danny learns new powers a few episodes pass by, has arch nemeses, more love interests, and the fight scenes. That's about it.The fight scenes were basically a lack of detail, limiting themselves to power shooting, gadgets, and the occasional punches. Danny doesn't apparently have the physical strength, but he can try to train himself both physically, and socioeconomically. Sadly, I usually think he rarely trains, just his new powers pop-up by ghost fighting just like that.The Jokes aren't even funny. Awkward scenes here and there, maybe a random romance sequence between friends. The animation seems okay, but not enough.The theme is apparently concentrating on a more Grim feel, but I just can't see it. The contents in the cartoon look too vague, and they just come from thin air.The characters are also one-sided. Even their "unique" characters look too one-sided. Not much on character development there. The only decent person I see in there was Maddie, Danny's mom, who is the one who didn't look pathetic, and is apparently the sane one. Kudos to her.Apparently, the character that actually needed to be deleted was Sam Manson. She was the type of person who has been asserting herself to become the "perfectly independent girl" to Danny, who just magically gets her anyway in the end of the series. She was technically a hypocrite and a poser, and most of the episodes see her as trying to be different, only revealing to be quite useless in times of need. (see Naruto's Sakura.) In conclusion, Danny Phantom may be a good plot, but the cutboard characters and the vague details will just make it what it is. Butch Hartman needs to research more about the ghosts and the characters. That is all.Comment Rating: 2/10 (Because a few episodes made good ranks.)
Sarah I'll admit, I watched the premiere episode of Danny Phantom in 2004, and it really didn't make a super-awesome impression on me. Sure, it wasn't bad, but what I remembered the most is how much I didn't really like the theme song.Although, I flipped through channels one day and stumbled upon it. Why not? It wasn't bad, per se, so I watched it. The next day, and the next, it turned into a habit to watch Danny at five-thirty. Soon I started to obsess; I loved the show more than anything on television. I still do! The characters make me laugh, the stories are really interesting (most; not everything's perfect), and the animation style is just awesome. Unlike so many of the shows on Nick, I can see Danny actually drawing in an audience of ALL ages. I love it (I'm sixteen.), my parents don't mind watching it with me, and I know little kids who love it, too. There are morals in the end, the hero doesn't always win, and the show portrays some of the real stresses of being a teenager. Why are they cancelling this? Danny Phantom has to be the best show they've had on the air for years. I didn't even watch the channel anymore until I got back into DP.I think they need to realize that if the show isn't bringing in the ratings they want or the money that they want, maybe they should put it back in its old time slot and make some more merchandise that you can actually purchase in a store. (I've never seen any; I don't know about other places.) Hopefully Danny's run won't end this year. It can't be ending in February; there's not enough time to make that happen.10 out of 10 for the ghost that I sure love the most. =3
david-jaramillo When I first started viewing the show, it did not seem very special or very interesting to me. It had a Spiderman Marvel like plot line for development and was pretty good. I did not get my true appreciation for the show until I started watching the show from the beginning. The Humor and animation are decent, but the show had real and constant character development. There was no straight plot line to the show, but there were unsettling factors that continued throughout the duration of the show. The character development was fast paced enough and occurred enough to get me hooked.Good job Butch, hook line.
