"Mom! Phineas and Ferb are making a talk show!"
Take Two with Phineas and Ferb is a series of shorts spun off from Phineas and Ferb. The show's format is very similar to that of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast.
The series has Phineas Flynn, Ferb Fletcher, and Isabella Garcia-Shapiro as a stage manager as they meet celebrities, such as British football star David Beckham, Selena Gomez from Wizards of Waverly Place, Howie Mandel from Deal or No Deal, Jason Segel, The Muppets' Miss Piggy, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition's Ty Pennington, then-America's Funniest Home Videos host Tom Bergeron, Food Network star Guy Fieri, Night at the Museum's Ben Stiller, Larry King, skateboarder Tony Hawk, and snowboarder Shawn White. The concept was first reported by the New York Times in a June 2010 article about Disney's plans regarding making Phineas and Ferb into a franchise.[1][2]
The show ran from December 3, 2010, to November 25, 2011. Some of the episodes were included on the Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Across the 2nd Dimension Exclusive Bonus Disc and Phineas and Ferb: Animal Agents DVDs.
