==Plot==
In the far future, when Vicky is a world dictator, Chester and A.J. are chased and apprehended by one of Vicky's henchmen, who travels into the past. In the present day, when television causes negative effects on child behavior, Mr. and Mrs. Turner forbid Timmy to watch television again after Timmy wishes for a destructive vehicle from his favorite television show, Maho Mushi (Japanese: マホムシ, literally Magic Insect), that ruins both of his parents' jobs. So rather than watching television, Timmy wishes for a magical remote control which allows him to visit inside the television universe. Meanwhile, Vicky wrecks the house and blames the destruction on Timmy, leaving Mr. and Mrs. Turner infuriated. Timmy tries to prove his innocence by explaining to his parents that Vicky was the actual culprit, but Mrs. Turner instead confiscates his magical remote away from him and gives it to Vicky as she and Mr. Turner still refuse to listen to their son about Vicky. As a result, Timmy is angry and decides to run away from home. After stating that all the characters in the shows he was in never get older even though they have been on TV for years in contrast to Wanda's statement that everyone eventually grows up, he wishes for another magical remote and decides to live in the television universe, where nobody grows up.
While exploring channels, Timmy, Cosmo, and Wanda are constantly chased by the future Vicky's henchman, whom eventually reveals himself to be the future version of Timmy. Older Timmy explains that in the future Vicky is a world dictator, and he became one of Vicky's henchmen in order for the opportunity to enter the past, when he can change it to prevent Vicky ruling the future. Currently, in her bedroom, Vicky discovers the remote's magical abilities and enters the television universe as well, bumping through several channels in order to reach the "Dictator Week" channel and learn the skills needed to become a future dictator.
Meanwhile, Mr. and Mrs. Turner are devastated to discover that Timmy has disappeared. While searching for him, they question Timmy's friends and Vicky's parents about Timmy's whereabouts and Vicky's true nature, but came up empty handed due to Vicky having put the questioned under death threats if they knew anything about her. Just then, they receive a note telling them to head to a parking garage, where Tootie, assuming the alias of secret informant "Deep Toot", hands them photos illustrating evidence of Vicky's evil actions whenever they are not home. Convinced that Timmy was telling the truth, Mr. and Mrs. Turner then head to the Dimmadelphia Cable, the location of Dimmsdale's cable television provider headed by Doug Dimmadome, where they sneak into the broadcast room and send a message out to their son.
After chasing Vicky through several channels, Timmy and older Timmy find themselves with her at the end credits scene of a show preceding Maho Mushi. Vicky damages older Timmy's time travel belt, sending older Timmy back to his time period. Timmy is furious with this, after sharing nostalgia together with older Timmy in previous channels, blaming Vicky for ruining literally every time something good happened in his life. Timmy and Vicky arrive at a colosseum in the universe of Maho Mushi, where he must defeat her before she reaches the next channel "Dictator Week". In the middle of a series of battles between each other, Timmy fast-forwards his age enough with his magical remote so that he becomes too old for Cosmo and Wanda, thereby negating all effects of magic around them. As a result, Timmy's and Vicky's remotes will no longer work, thus rendering Vicky powerless. Cosmo and Wanda restore Timmy's original age, and Timmy erases Vicky from the television show and sends her back to her bedroom, where she finds her experiences in the television universe to only be a dream, as well as a note from "Big Toot" that she is in big trouble with the Turners.
As he and the fairies continue to travel through the channels, Timmy still felt down, because he was impressed by his future self, who only existed because his parents raised him correctly, unlike the ones on TV who were either complete idiots or were never around when needed. Suddenly, he sees his parents' apology message on every channel and, forgiving them, reunited with them in the real world.
Back home, Mr. and Mrs. Turner apologize to their son for not believing him about Vicky's true colors and fire Vicky for countlessly torturing him. However, Timmy realizes he got Cosmo and Wanda because of his miserable life with Vicky, and decides to continue dealing with her so he can retain his godparents for a few more years. After both Magic remotes were wished away from existence along with any memory of the episode's events, everything returned to normal, except that now Vicky has never became a dictator, so the future has changed. In the year 2019, Timmy is a working father of his two children Tammy and Tommy Turner, who have Cosmo and Wanda as fairy godparents. Timmy has apparently forgotten about having fairies and/or that Vicky was an evil babysitter, so as a result, he hires a Vicky Bot to babysit his children whenever he leaves for work. Cosmo and Wanda ended the episode with the parody of Porky Pig's "That's All Folks!" (due to the fact that the screen was too cold).

In addition, from is seen briefly on Timmy's TV when Vicky comes in and catches Cosmo disguised as him watching TV while Timmy was inside the TV.
Interestingly, two of the shows parodied - Peanuts and Looney Tunes - both aired in reruns on Nickelodeon in the past, even right around the time Oh Yeah! Cartoons, on which the Fairly OddParents characters debuted, premiered. Nickelodeon also previously aired several Muppet specials that included the Sesame Street characters (such as The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years, A Muppet Family Christmas, and The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson). And in a further piece of irony, Nickelodeon would acquire the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise five years after this special premiered.
