I grew up as a kid who watched Nickelodeon every day. My brother and I would run to our couches to watch classic cartoons like Spongebob after school or on weekend mornings. I really enjoyed most of the animated cartoons and plenty of them hold a special place in the category of my childhood cartoons. (Keep in mind that the creator of the show, Butch Hartman, NEVER created my childhood. This is a case where I will completely separate the creator from the creation.)
The Fairly Oddparents is one of those cartoons. The show centers around a 10 year old child named Timmy Turner who has two fairy godparents, Cosmo and Wanda. The zany couple help Timmy get through the day without having to deal with his abusive babysitter and torment from is mentally ill teacher.
This show holds a soft spot for me because of the charm. Yes, some episodes had great lessons and spotted hilarious moments, but the thing that represents this show for me are Cosmo and Wanda. Basically without the couple, this show would literally be some sort of long TLC episode. While their relationship seemed to be falling apart after season 6 (okay, basically the whole damn show was falling apart), they couple had their heartwarming and funny moments. One of the most memorable scenes from this show, in my opinion, was when they sang the song "Floating With You" on the TV film "School's Out: The Musical". For me, Cosmo and Wanda are one of the best couples on Nickelodeon. While shows like Spongebob Squarepants and the classic Mickey Mouse cartoons are what I usually watched when I was a child, The Fairly Oddparents is definitely a show that all Nickelodeon fans much watch if they have not. Oh, and if you do, don't bother to watch beyond season 6.
