( If you like Johnny Test then you will be respected as long as you leave the room IMMEDIATELY. I you have a comment or complaint then do so AT YOUR OWN RISK, I WILL get back to you. :3 )

Ok, I was reading some critic reviews for this show (BTW, ALOT of people gave it a MEGA FAIL) and some people brought up some... REALLY stupid views. Now... I just need to rant. Please... please, let me rant... this show... sucks so much eggs... I just can’t DEAL WITH THIS!!! Ok, calm down... all right, where do I begin? -Oh yes! I'll start with this Godforsaken plot...

(non-biased) A boy named Johnny with blond fiery hair has two sisters who are very smart and created a laboratory. Johnny also has a dog named Dukey (Dookiee) who can talk. "Test" is Johnny's last name due to the joke that his sisters use him to test out their latest inventions. Johnny's father is a feminist (GAAAAAAY!!!) who stays at home and he cleans the house while Johnny's mom has an office job. Johnny's sister's tests usually go incredibly wrong and the characters usually spend the rest of the episode solving whatever problem unraveled from their mistake. (There are A LOT of characters that I'm leaving out, but I don’t care.)

Ok, think of this as a rip off of Johnny Quest, wanna-be YuGiOh (just a little), Fairly Odd Parents (interesting fact behind this), Dexter's Laboratory (OMFG LYKE TTLY DUUUUH!), Green Day (I just found this HILARIOUS fact out a couple of minutes ago), and any show with a talking dog LOOOL L1K3 TH3R3 AREN'T AN1 ALLREDii! D: Plus THE ART SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

First of all: THE NAME!!! Ok, I do love Johnny Quest (Hadji = :) ) But every time I hear the name Johnny TEST, I can’t help but hear the ole brain scream “RIIIIP OFFFF!!!” I just don't think that show is old enough for you to make a new name that sounds so similar.
-_-

Ok, and another thing: HE HAS TO EARN THAT HAIR!!! Any YuGiOh fan can tell you "Yeah... I thought the hair was stupid the first time I saw it..." but later on when the say that Yugi is FTW then the hair fit, and we RESPECTED that hair of his. Yes people, R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Every single GOOD cartoon character has one thing in common- you RESPECT them for a REASON. You can't automatically gain respect because you get tricked out gadgets from your sisters, or that you have a talking dog, or that you have blond hair with red highlights, or you get ROCKETSHIPS and ROLLERCOASTERS in your backyard because you wanted it so you just GOT it for that reason because were all SO @%&#ing BORED TODAY!!! The REAL question: What can JOHNNY do? D: Whine, play REALLY SUCKY videogames with his dog like lazy bums, and be a show-offy idiot.

Plot Similarity? A lot of people think this show relates to the earlier episodes of the Fairly Odd Parents. Let me get one thing covered though: Scott Fellows (THE LEAD WRIGHTER (yes, this is Kristen joke :P hahaha) OF THE THIRD AND FOURTH SEASON OF THE FAIRLYODD PARENTS) created this show so let’s begin!
1> A kid with an extremely short attention span dislikes to listen to the risks of an important decision he may be making.
2> This kid has access to a great deal of power that VERY rarely any other kid has.
3> There are two people in charge of this source of power.
4> There is some love-sick character hopelessly chasing another character who completely loathes/ doesn’t notice them.
5> If the main character is in any trouble he ALWAYS turns to this source of power to resolve it.
6> In the end the source of power ALWAYS resolves the conflict in a slightly witty and/or unexpected way.
7> The cartoon USUALLY starts out with the main character wanting to fulfill a simple or childish want using this awesome power. Example: "I WANT A ROLLER COASTER IN MY BACKYARD BECAUSE THE NEIGHBORHOOD THEMEPARK GOT SHOT or something..." *ends up with some Fat Mega-Coaster*
8> The main conflict USUALLY starts out with the misuse of the power in the first place.
...need I go on?

The differences? Well, Timmy (compared to Johnny) cares a lot for other people, does REALLY CREATIVE things with his wishes, is a really clever kid and shows smart judgment near the end of the story and doesn't get off the hook on DUMB LUCK. Plus, Timmy has a love interest (which is adorable in cartoons!) and once in a while occasionally does try (in a hilarious failed attempt) to woo Trixie.
Johnny, however, is a STRONG "cootie" supporter which is SOOOO typical of a boy about 5 years younger than him. He's about twelve right? And he still isn't even SLIGHTY interested in girls. To him life is one big I-really-wanna-try-out-the-stunts-I-see-on-my-videogame-no-matter-what-the-consequence. So, he goes for those simple thrills: rocket strapped to a skateboard, rocket strapped to a surfboard, rocket strapped to a toilet, rocket strapped to a...etc. In the end, Johnny solves his problems through dumb luck and being told EXACTLY what to do OR he’ll treat the whole problem like ONE BIG JOKE and solve it in a REALLY dumb way. (Example: One time Johnny saved the day by farting) :/

Ok Dexter's Lab Much!?!? This is one of the BIGGEST OFFENSES I have gotten from this show. OK
~Switch the genders of Dexter and Dee Dee
~Switch the ages too
~Even out the "common sense" between both of them
~Switch the attitudes of their mom and dad (note how they even LOOK the same)
~give Johnny a pet
~Give him two sisters instead of one
EVERYTHING ELSE IS THE SAME IN THAT HOUSEHOLD!!!
There's even some evil wanna-be scientist who's not QUITE as smart as the sisters. (oMg c0ud 1t b3 MANDARK?)

The biggest mistake they made (BESIDES COPYRIGHT) is the third one: The two scientist sisters have almost NO common sense- just as much as their idiot brother, even. Being such “scientists”, you would think they would be smart and keep their brother AWAY from dangerous instruments of mass destruction, right? I mean like, Johnny walks up to a big glass container with a “dangerous” weapon inside, right? He POKES the dang thing and it just FALLS OPEN! That’s some “wonderful” security so that deserves a great deal of respect right?!
I’m still trying to recover from losing my favorite cartoons to the new ones. So what do I find in its place?! SOME HALF MESS GENERIC CRAP!? I've seen this before, dude. Just better and somewhere else. It reminds me of what had to go, which makes me very sad :( Thank the Lord for DVD, right?

I do understand that 10 YEARS IS USUALLY THE MAXIMUM LIFESPAN OF A GOOD NON-OVERDONE CARTOON. I'm sorry... I wish it were longer but even 8 is a HUGE chunk of any writer or storyboard artist's life. : / and a new cast is definitely NOT an option if you want the cartoon to ever be the same.

Green Day would be INSULTED!!! Ok what does GREEN DAY have to do with Johnny Test? Well, this is how it goes... Johnny Test aired in both Canada and the U.S. The Canadian Introduction sounds A LOT different from the American Introduction. First of all, the one in Canada is better. It’s catchier and really not quite as obnoxious. Of course when it aired on the U.S. and the third season came out, they just HAD to change the introduction right? Ha-ha- WRONG, but they did anyway.

*MY POINT* The season three introduction of Johnny Test sounds like an EXTREME RIP of “American Idiot” by Green Day.
You may be thinking, “Oh, it only SOUNDS like it.” No. It's sad but it’s true.
~Pull up the Tube of You on the Internet and look it up for yourself. People there talk about the season three introduction of Johnny Test sounding like American Idiot already.

~The Dog and the Rest~ Oh my God…what’s with the dog? He sucks. He's just flat out terrible. -_- enough said. In a sad attempt to create an inside joke, everyone calls the dog ugly in the show. In reality he looks fine (well… he looks just as good as the rest of them). He's just lame. All the characters have nasally voices, and they have no interesting backgrounds, hobbies, or "Character" in general whatsoever. And everyone is always whining and shouting towards the sky while waving their hands in the air about how much their life sucks. The art looks like it was crapped, farted, and vomited strait out of Microsoft paint. Because of this: The expressions are SOOO weak. Slight surprise ranging to extreme shock uses the 1 same facial expression. New characters are spat up out of nowhere like lugies out of the mouth of the non-creative money-hungry monster of modern television. The animation is rushed like insanity and the movements are poor quality. ALL the sound effects that could be are COMPLETELY Electric Guitar. NO OTHER INSTRUMENTS are valued in the show, not even the beloved trumpet (aka the cartoon signature instrument). The plot is simple and can be solved 1000 different easier ways than the way taken, and they ALWAYS have to be somewhere ALL THE TIME. The jokes are just bad (you NEVER laugh).

In the words of Dale Gribble: "This show makes me envy the deaf and the blind"

I’m sorry for you 5-or-something fans out there, I just needed to get something off my chest. It's 4:30 AM and I need to relax.

If you need me, I'll be listening to "My Best Friend Plank"
