Fairly OddParents was created by Butch Hartman (Danny Phantom, T.U.F.F. Puppy, Bunsen Is a Beast), and started out as a series of shorts featured as part of Nickelodeon's animation showcase series Oh Yeah! Cartoons. Following the popularity of the shorts, Nickelodeon greenlit a full Fairly OddParents series, which aired for 161 episodes over 10 seasons between March 30, 2001 – July 26, 2017. The series also spawned several movies and specials, including three crossovers with Jimmy Neutron (now available on DVD) and three live-action movies. Fairly OddParents is currently Nickelodeon's second longest running television series, after SpongeBob SquarePants.
The entire series is available to stream on Paramount+.
