Trivia:

In "Operation: A.R.C.H.I.V.E.," Father's real name is revealed to be Mr. Wigglestein. However, later episodes (especially Operation: Z.E.R.O.) contradict this, perhaps demonstrating that Numbuh 1's flight of fancy was exactly that.

Quotes:

Nigel Uno: [to Lizzie, after her "Yes Dear" helmet explodes on his head] Don't ever put one of those on me again.

What A Cool Show!

Codename: Kids Next Door is a show a find quite entertaining. The color is adequate and the characters are drawn in a natural way. They maybe kids, but they're kids with firepower. This makes difficult for their rivals to conquer them. Their greatest rival are five kids who could not talk individually, but all together simultaneously. I like the Kids Next Door especially Number 3 (Kuki Sanban). Her attractive appearance really gets my attention. Anyway, this show is really good. It would also someday be a fad. I wish someday a lot of KND merchandise would be selled in numerous stores in America and worldwide. Whoever created this show is an artistic genius.
