Fillmore is a show about a boy that used to be a troublemaker, but leaves a life of crime and joins the safety patrol. Where I went to school, the safety patrol would go out into the street with stop signs and help other kids cross the street, but at Fillmore's school, they seem to be the school police force.Anyway, the show is a satire of real life detective shows, where Fillmore and his partner Ingrid must solve whatever case they must solve by the deadline forced upon them by the bitchy school principal. The show is pretty good actually. The mysteries are simple kids-stuff, but taken seriously to properly satirize the network crime dramas.The show's biggest flaw, is that it sometimes becomes too serious. It's almost as if for a moment, the writers forgot that they are only making a satire of a crime drama and think that they are actually making a crime drama, and seeing that seriousness in a kids' cartoon is just plain ridiculous.When the show remains faithful to what it is, it's very good work. It just has to remember what it is.

Fillmore is a police procedural set in a middle school. The way it takes itself utterly seriously and perfectly applies all the hard-boiled detective cliches makes it great fun, and sometimes even touching. This one's for adults as much as for children.

This show is great. The series revolves around Cornelius Fillmore, a former trouble maker turned hall monitor, like a jounior version of Law and Order, this show has plot and substance. Joining fillmore is his fight against crime and corruption in the mean halls of X Middle School is his rookie partner Ingrid Third, the new girl at X. Fillmore's comander, Jr. Commissioner Vallejo is always on his case and principle folsom is always getting in the way of their work. From busting up a counterfeit X Middle School Teeshirt ring to retreaving the kidnapped school lobster mascott, Fillmore get's the job done.

The show is about suave former-juvenile-delinquent-turned-safety-patrol-person Cornelius Fillmore (catchphrase: "Disco!") solving crimes for the X Middle School safety patrol with partner Ingrid Third (catchphrase: "Crackers"), who is smart and known for her photographic memory. Other main characters are Vallejo (the safety control commissioner, who always blows off steam at the dynamic duo [catchphrase: "FILLMOORRE!!!"]), Principal Folsom (the principal of X, who is an egotistical bitch [sorry, folks] who wants the safety patrol to solve a crime ASAP for her personal gain [catchphrase: some sentence involving the safety patrol to solve the crime ASAP for her personal gain]), and the other safety patrol people (Danny O' Farell [a nerd], Joseph Anza [the laid back one], and Karen Tehama [the forensics expert]). At first, I thought "This is the show they are canceling Teacher's Pet for?", but a couple of months later, I saw it and it was good (my favorite episodes are "To Mar a Stall", "Red Robins Don't Fly", "Ingrid Third: Public Enemy", "A Cold Day At X", and "A Forgotten Yesterday"). It's so good it makes up for Disney for taking TP off the air. I give this a 10 out of 10.
