Disney Channel’s “Phineas and Ferb” follows ingenious Phineas Flynn and his resourceful stepbrother, Ferb Fletcher, as they happily set out to conquer boredom and make every day of their 104-day summer vacation count. Throughout the escapades, they’re accompanied by Perry the Platypus, their seemingly mindless family pet who, unbeknownst to all, leads a double life as suave secret Agent P, deftly battling the evil Dr. Doofenshmirtz to save the world. Meanwhile, older sister Candace is aghast at her brothers’ bold antics and makes it her life’s work to tattle on them to Mom and Dad.

“Phineas and Ferb” is TV’s #1 animated series in primetime among Kids and Tweens, reaching more than 110 million unduplicated Total Viewers across the U.S. 2011-to date.  The Disney Channel Original Movie, “Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension,” premieres FRIDAY, AUGUST 5 (8:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel.
