Let's Chat Phineas and Ferb Season 5!

Happy Friday, my loves! Getting this week’s blog post to you a little later than I had hoped because it has been one hell of a week. But hey. Better late than never, right? 🥰

I wanted to talk this time around about the newest episodes of Phineas and Ferb that just released on Disney+! I have absolutely loved what they have done with this new season, and I am SO glad that the show is back! I have so many wonderful memories associated with the show and the characters, and it’s been so great to kick off the start of the summer with a little hit of Disney nostalgia 🤭

Watching the first episode felt like watching one of the Phineas and Ferb movies that they had created. I loved the storyline of their Mom turning into a giant cloud for their VERY FIRST day of summer vacation, but I will say that was one of the only things that felt slightly off about the new episodes. To me, it felt like a very bold jump back into the show after a period of not having Phineas and Ferb content for a while. After that, the episodes kind of got back into classic Phineas and Ferb territory with the storylines and the songs, which I loved. But overall, I did enjoy the first episode in its entirety! And Doof calling Major Monogram to get ideas for his evil schemes was absolutely cracking me up the whole time 😂

I am so glad that for the most part, they got the whole main cast back! I am so impressed with how many new things they are still able to think up for Phineas and Ferb to build. And I absolutely love how we are still getting the classic Doofenshmirtz lines. Doof and Perry’s interactions in the show are honestly some of my absolute favorites, so any scenes with the two of them I am so grateful for. And I absolutely love how they are adding some more character development and storylines for the characters! Ferb talks a lot more now, and I loved the episode with Candace getting her driver’s license directly tying back to the episode of her learning how to parallel park. Honestly, I feel this new season has done a great job of making little references here and there to those past favorite parts of Phineas and Ferb (like the “If I had a nickel” joke being brought up TWICE) and still coming up with new and fresh ideas for storylines.

The Tropey McTropeface song being sung by Michael Bublé was NOT on my Phineas and Ferb Season 5 Bingo card at ALL, but I am so glad we got to witness that masterpiece 😂 Honestly, one of the things I’m most excited about is for them to add all these songs to a Spotify album for us! License to Bust WILL be on repeat in my house when it’s made available to listen all the time 😤 The music, as always, have been banger after banger. And I also was in stitches at Doof as the plants screaming “I’m a plant, I’m a plant!” over and over again. The other thing I have found quite interesting with this season so far is that they have really expanded from the common locations of the show! We still see the backyard, and 🎶Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated 🎶 but the kids and Doof have been doing a lot more exploring outside of their normal spots. Like the vet, bouncing around the Tri-State Area, and even a water park at one point! 

Overall, I am absolutely loving the new episodes they have created. I love that it still feels the same as watching the show when I used to watch the episodes with my siblings together over the summer, and I am so so happy Disney decided to let Phineas and Ferb have a comeback, and that so many of the original cast and crew were on board! I can’t wait to see what the rest of the episodes have in store for us (and I sure do hope they renew them for even more episodes after those ones! I can’t get enough Phineas and Ferb 🤭).

What do you all think so far of the new Phineas and Ferb episodes? Do you have a favorite one? Personally, I think mine was either the Vet episode (Episode 5) or the Chronicles of Meap episode (Episode 9) where they took all the clips from that fake trailer that they made back in the day, hahah!

Sending you all love and light for this upcoming weekend <3 

Until next week’s blog!
