### Debut

Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: The MovieJimmy Timmy Power Hour (FOP & TAOJNBG)

**James Isaac "Jimmy" Neutron** is the main protagonist of the Jimmy Neutron franchise. He appears as the main protagonist in the Jimmy Timmy Power Hour films.

## Appearance

Jimmy has swirly brown hair and blue eyes, as well as a big forehead. He wears a red shirt with a yellow atom on it, blue jeans, and white shoes. In the movie and shorts, he wore the same shirt, but with blue shorts and brown shoes. In the Pilot, he wore a red and white striped shirt with his shots and shoes.

## Personality

Jimmy is a very intelligent kid, having an impossible I.Q. of 210. In many episodes, his classmates are angered because he is so smart and keeps outdoing them in anything math and science-related. This brain, a source of constant comment, allows him to invent devices that accomplish even the impossible. This usually leads Jimmy causing accidental trouble to Retroville. He designs his wild inventions to help him deal with bothersome chores, but they often end up causing a bigger problem. They do put him in exciting adventures though, and make life more interesting.

In the moment of crisis, he will urge his brain by saying, "Think, think, think!", after which the camera enters inside Jimmy's ear (which humorously contains a signboard stating 'EARWAX MUSEUM' in the movie) and goes into his brain to observe its inner workings as well, as to relive a scene from the early part of the episode. Jimmy will then shout, "Brain Blast!", and arrive at the solution for whatever danger he has landed himself, his friends, or his town in. In the third season, however, he seems to stop Brain Blasting and comes up with ideas right away, with "Fundemonium" being the only episode that season to use the "Brain Blast!" sequence.

Jimmy is a very nice guy, although sometimes he can be a bit arrogant and a know-it-all. Jimmy has shown to be quite irritable around most people, mainly his friends, and thinking he's above it all. Sometimes, Jimmy can be unsympathetic to other people's feelings and can come off as a smart-alec or a nerd. Jimmy has a little bit of pride despite the fact that his inventions usually go wrong and/or cause trouble. Regardless, he enjoys being a hero, often taking a staunch stand against anyone he believes to be evil. He won't back down from his beliefs, and he strongly believes in himself.

Jimmy is quite charming when he least tries to be, such as at the party, that he throws at his parents' absence in the episode "Party at Neutron's". Despite his pride and arrogance, he cares deeply for his friends and his family and does everything he can to help them.

However, he does have a few weaknesses; one of them is his poor communication skills. It takes him hours to explain things the scientific way, and people find his explanations hard to understand and would ask for a shorter and more understandable version of his story instead. Cindy calls him silver-tongued (in a sarcastic way) in the episode "Love Potion 976/J" as he finds it hard to express his feelings. He is also bad at art and often uses science to solve his non-science projects and even the simplest things. This has led fans to suspect that he could have a form of high-functioning autism.

Jimmy also tends not to take responsibility for his actions, learn from his mistakes, or even admit when he's wrong. Usually, when his friends (particularly Cindy) try to warn him about the consequences of his actions or plans, he doesn't listen and does what he wants instead, out of pride or because he thinks people are trying to pity him. Jimmy also is shown to be lazy, as he often puts off his chores for other things.

It is also worth noting that in the movie, the shorts and the pilot, Jimmy had a much different personality, likely due to his younger age. He was more childlike, shy, mischievous, naive and clumsy-- which often got him in trouble not only with his parents but his home town on occasion. In the film, it has also shown that Jimmy had suffered from self-esteem issues (which had only carried over in "Normal Boy"), beating himself up for making mistakes and wallowing in sadness. However, he was able to fight this after Cindy helped him and the others escape from the Yolkian jail. After the film, he became more proud of himself, and rarely ever had any timidness or childlike qualities.

## Trivia

* Jimmy was the first character from his show to appear in a crossover, this being the Fairly Odd Parents, Jimmy Timmy Power Hour from one through three.
* Cosmo and Wanda's introduction to Jimmy is similar to their intro to Timmy in the pilot episode, The Fairly Odd Parents!
* Cosmo refers to Jimmy as "fudge-head" because of the shape of his hair and his hair's color.
* In the first special, Timmy calls Jimmy "boy genius", a reference to the title of his series.
* Jimmy is possibly the only human, without a fairy, that is aware of Cosmo and Wanda's existence as Timmy's fairies. However, Da Rules possibly only apply to humans that live in Timmy's world; so it can be implied that humans, as long as they live in different dimensions such as Jimmy's world, can be considered the only exceptions. Another possibility is that since Jimmy thinks they are reality-bending computer programs, and not actually fairies, the rules haven't been violated.
* Like Timmy Turner, Jimmy Neutron is also voiced by a woman.
* He and Dexter, from Dexter's Laboratory, share the same nickname, "boy genius".
