About Characters Phineas Flynn:
Phineas Flynn is one of the protagonists of the animated television series Phineas and Ferb. Voiced by Vincent Martella and created and designed by Dan Povenmire, Phineas first appeared along with the rest of the series' main characters in the pilot episode \"Rollercoaster.\" Phineas, along with his stepbrother Ferb Fletcher, star in each A-Plot of every episode.
The series concerns Phineas's attempts to avoid boredom by finding something new to do for each day of his summer vacation. His sister's name is Candace Flynn, who tries to reveal their outrageous creations, but to no avail. He does this with his less-talkative stepbrother Ferb, and often with many other neighborhood children. The activities they devise usually involve outlandish contraptions, including roller coasters, haunted houses, roller rinks and a backyard beach etc. which Phineas designs and Ferb builds.
Phineas comes from a blended family. The creators chose this arrangement because they considered it underused in children's programming as well as from creator Jeff \"Swampy\" Marsh's past experiences in one. As a character, Phineas has received positive critical response, with one reviewer describing him and his brother as a \"comical pairing.\" Phineas appears in Phineas and Ferb merchandise, including plush toys,t-shirts, and a video game.
About Characters Ferb Fletcher:
Ferb Fletcher is a character on the animated television series Phineas and Ferb. The character, voiced by British actor Thomas Sangster, was created by Phineas and Ferb co-founders Dan Povenmire and Jeff \"Swampy\" Marsh and first appeared in the show's pilot episode, \"Rollercoaster.\"
Ferb and his stepbrother Phineas Flynn spend their days during summer vacation from school striving to have fun. They are featured in the majority of episodes as the A-Plot constructing large scale inventions or taking part in other outlandish activities. Ferb, an engineering genius, allows Phineas to do most of the talking for the pair and is \"more of a man of action.\" When Ferb does speak, it is almost always a single sentence. In a conversation in the future time of \"Phineas and Ferb's Quantum Boogaloo\", it is revealed that he was at Camp David.
Ferb was named after a set-builder named Frank, whose wife nicknamed him \"Ferb\". Frank, a friend of both Povenmire and Marsh, owns several tools and was considered a fitting choice for Ferb's namesake. In \"Vanessassary Roughness\" Ferb explains that his name is short for something, but he didn't get to say it and it remains unknown. He cares for Vanessa and saves her in the same episode when she gets tangled up and a lawn mower almost gets her, but he is able to save her with a giant tool. The tool appears to be an exaggerated version of a Swiss Army Knife. In \"Summer Belongs To You\" Vanessa asks Candace what Ferb is short for; Candace realizes she doesn't know herself what it is short for. Ferb's design is based around a rectangle and also shaped like an \"F\" and is inspired by the style of late animator Tex Avery. As a character, Ferb has been critically well received and appears in several pieces of Phineas and Ferb merchandise, including toys, t-shirts, and a video game.
