Probably the more realistic and entertaining of the newer shows on Disney.Phil of the Future is about a family,from the year 2121,that goes time traveling.They get stuck in our current time,and have to blend in,while their time machine gets fixed.Phil is the typical good friend.Pim is Phil's sister,that dreams about world domination.Then there are the parents.They are kooky and funny.I'm pretty sure the mom is a robot,unless I'm wrong.They meet a whole bunch of people who become their friends.Phil's best friend is Keeley,who dreams of being a reporter.Then,there is Little Danny,who is one of Pim's friends.He is kind of like her sidekick and probably has a crush on her.Then,there is Debbie.Debbie is a very bubbly,perky kid.She is always smiling and happy,which is sort of disturbing.Then,there is the guy sort of against the Diffy's.Vice principal Hackett,who thinks Phil and his family are aliens.The show is just wonderful and brilliant.Probably one of the only shows now that keeps me happy.Go watch it!

This is an excellent charming series.Better than 99 per cent of all the rest that is on television. The acting is fine, the props are very ingenious. Phil was a fine actor, Keeley was a great actress. The rest of the cast blended well together. I know it has a simple meaning to it. That is something I believe we need today. Truly an excellent show. No idea why it was canceled. I guess not enough watched it. Still it was for younger members of our society. But we older ones got a kick out of the plots. The caveman was an excellent idea. And having the school H.G. Wells High School) as their high school was genius. I hope it comes back,but alas like all canceled it will go to rerun heaven.

Disney Channel has been VERY disappointing lately with the quality of their shows. Lizzie Miguire and Even Stevens were great, and thats why i started to watch Disney Channel. Phil of the Future quickly became my favorite show, with great acting, and great cast, and its absolutely hilarious! When Disney started to make these new shows, like Life with Derek, and The Buzz on Maggie, i simply stopped watching Disney Channel except to catch Phil of the Future. Even my mom loves Phil. Shes its one of the only great Disney shows left. Its a real shame that its canceled. I'm fighting to save the show and i hope that other fans will join me. Phil of the Future needs our help!

Remember watching the promos didn't think much about it. Seeing the name, thought what the heck is that? Phil doing his introduction talking about "threads", thought now here's a guy trying to be hip when he's obviously a loser. Being it so long ago, I don't remember what exactly my feelings were about the actual show but I'm pretty sure I was thinking it would have too much freaks for my tastes. whatever I was stupid back then, for crying out loud I did NOT even notice how cute Raviv Ullman was. I didn't really give it a chance.One day was bored thought it can't be too bad if shown couple eppys already. Future Jock. I wasn't really into POTF but meh, I get tired of the same stuff, why not watch something different? About 10min in: "I am definitely watching this, it's pretty good." few episodes later, I couldn't tear away then noticed how much of an adorable guy Raviv was. seems I like this show for Raviv but that's not the only reason. as days went by I grew to love the whole bit of POTF.Dunno what attracts me to this (besides Raviv) but IT'S AWESOME AND MY FAVORITE!!! I watch TV just for that. would be less confusing if u see more of promo but it's unnecessary. not what the show is really about. it's about a guy everyone thinks is an alienboy. trying to hide the fact that he's from the future. those of you who said special effects were annoying, they aren't really. If you really pay attention to the plot they won't be a problem. not too over-the-top to be distracting. cool. it shows true potential when a show doesn't rely on big budget effects. a show needs to be focused on the plot and that's exactly what this show does. Honestly, I love many of the characters. couldn't choose. Pim, sure she's annoying but supposed to be that way. she can't be more annoying than the younger siblings you have at home. she's not your typical annoying sister, she's annoyance TO THE HIGHEST and that's what makes her rock!!! so devious. I adore the whole part w/Pim vs. Debbie. so hilarious!!! course Debbie is too nice but it balances out when you have extremes. was sad to see her go but that's why they had new guest stars and they are pretty exciting people. besides it's good they are up to her level. Phil can be a jerk sometimes but inside he's a really good charming person. so lovable and it helps that he's cute. Keely may look ditsy but there's more to her that meets the eye,she's actually pretty smart. shes popular but that makes it all the more touching, her to like the "school freak" and get others to follow her. shows how society can grow. parents not as*flavorful* but what do u expect they're parents. dad funny and it's so nice to watch him mess it up, he thinks he knows it all. Mom bit perky that's cool. Mr Hackett is teacher,biggest loser yet but that's what makes him so hilarious. others don't have much to say about them, they're entertaining and different. Curtis I don't really like but the good thing is he's not shown often. I guess it kinda adds to theme, having a foreign character.All the gadgets are cool too. interesting to see what each thing does and if it messes up. All actors does exceptional playing their roles. Characters & situations excellent. series very original yet typical. I guess you could say it's typical situations and people done in an original way. this is good because you can relate these characters to your own life. You got the mom who always believes in doing the right thing, the goofy dad who thinks himself as "the big man", the sweet charming guy who doesn't fit in, ditzy blonde, snobby fashion diva wannabe, kid sister always thinking of a way to play a trick on someone, mathlete: Seth, guy w/cheesy pickup lines who thinks he's all that: Owen ( a lot of people like that), snobby evil cheerleader type: Candida and the hip kid: Lil' Danny. this show also contains lessons (e.g. get to know someone even though they're different they may be an incredible person {Future Tutor, Keely joining Phil}, put a limit on trust {Your Cheatin' Heart, Tanner}, the time when Pim and Phil help each other out shows you should always stick up for your family, overcome your fears {My Way}, don't get too cocky and try to handle things on your own {Double Trouble} and many more) that are hidden well enough not to focus on educational aspects and take the fun out. >I sure hope all us fans can save the show cuz television would be suffering a great loss! makes me crack up, romantic aspects, cutesy, kool (notice KOOL not cool) and touches my heart like you wouldn't believe. FOR ALL AGES. you want proof? I'm 18 and look how I feel about it. brings out the inner child. even my mom likes watching it w/me.*Yes I know I'm obsessed w/this show but how can you not be. I'm sure if given the chance you'd grow to like it (although maybe not as much as me) take my word for it, check it out. if you see the show in the way I do, it's sure to be a hit.
