Phineas and Ferb is an American musical-comedy cartoon that aired on the Disney Channel from 2007 to 2015. The plot revolves around step-brothers Phineas Flynn and Ferb Fletcher and their wacky adventures during their summer vacation, which Candace Flynn always tries to bust by telling their parents on them. Every episode features this plot, a b-plot featuring their pet Perry the Platypus and his life as a secret agent fighting the evil scientist Heinz Doofenshmirtz, as well as a musical number.

Appealing aspects of the show included the stylized art (each main character's head is based on simple geometry), lack of mean/vicious motivations, and the creator's decision not to dumb it down for kids. It has had an active and worldwide fandom since it premiered in 2007.

A continuation of the series premiered 10 years later in 2025 on Disney+.
