Warburton created a pilot episode, entitled "Diseasy Does It", for another planned show, Kenny and the Chimp , which was produced by Hanna- Barbera. Originally, there was a group of children who called themselves "The Kids Next Door" among the recurring characters, and would often get Kenny into trouble. The plot-line was then changed to focus on the group of kids alone, and later, the kids battling adulthood. [6] In 2001, the show's pilot episode, "No P in the OOL", won a Cartoon Network viewer's poll, and as a result, Codename: Kids Next Door was greenlit to become a series, while Kenny and the Chimp was not greenlit by the channel. [7] The character Professor XXXL, that appeared in "Diseasy Does It", became a villain in Codename: Kids Next Door after Kenny and the Chimp wasn't picked up for a series. Despite this, Kenny and the Chimp did become a segment in the series. Storylines. The episodes are titled as the Kids Next Door's missions, denoted as "Operation:" followed by an acronym which often gives viewers clues as to what the episode is about. The episodes have little continuity, although occasionally missions make a reference to earlier episodes or lead to consequences in another. Season Five's "Operation: O.U.T.B.R.E.A.K." is a direct continuation of another episode ("Operation: V.I.R.U.S."), Season Six's "Operation: S.C.I.E.N.C.E." leads into "Operation: A.M.I.S.H." while another pair of Season Six episodes; "Operation: R.E.C.E.S.S." and "Operation: H.A.M.S.T.E.R." occur simultaneously. The latter showing what transpires while the team is away. Stories in the earlier episodes were often about typical childhood problems, but magnified and exaggerated. As the series progressed, a more complex and continuous storyline developed. The final season revolved around a mysterious splinter cell within the KND itself observing Numbuh One for an unknown assignment. This was concluded in the series finale Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S. The show frequently contains references to films, especially in the later seasons, such as Dragon Ball Z , The Pink Panther , Planet of the Apes , Jaws , Jurassic Park , King Kong , The Terminator , Resident Evil , Star Wars , Lord of the Rings , Doctor Who , The Matrix , X-Men , James Bond , Toy Story , the Stargate franchise, Pirates of the Caribbean , and the Indiana Jones film series with Star Wars being the most prominent. KND Organization. The Kids Next Door Organization is a worldwide group comprising thousands of kids joined in mutual struggle against teenage/adult tyranny. They fight villains that embody specific menaces to children overall (such as dental hygiene or school lunch). Following a period of training, every member of the Kids Next Door chooses a number or alphanumeric code (deliberately pronounced and spelled as "numbuh") and is sent to a "sector" that acts as their home base. Sector headquarters are often tree houses of ludicrous proportions, which often suited to their environment. This includes a base constructed beneath the Arctic ice shelf, and a base built into a large pine tree. The main headquarters of the Kids Next Door is a tree house Moon Base. Kids follow their oath of protecting other kids as well as battling adulthood until the age of 13, when they are "decommissioned", a process of wiping their memories of any past KND activity and warping their minds. Such a practice has inevitably led to the creation of many KND villains who escaped decommissioning (notably Cree, formerly known as Numbuh 11, and Numbuh 5's older sister, and Chad, formerly known as Numbuh 274 and supreme commander of the Kids Next Door). The practice of strict decommissioning at age 13 was later on revealed to be subject to exceptions: kids who have proved to be exceptional agents are offered the chance to carry on in KND as spies infiltrating the teen organization. [8] Decommissioning has also proved reversible due to a "re- commissioning" module used twice in the series. Technology. KND agents utilize a vast array of mechanical, electronic gadgets and machinery, collectively referred to as 2x4 (two-by-four) technology. The KND 2x4 technology was originally conceived as an assortment of common household objects, being put to use in combat situation; a theme that their weapons continued to adhere to. However, as the series progressed, the complexity of their defensive weaponry and transportation advanced to such absurd levels as to be considered science fiction, despite all of it still being constructed with nothing but household materials. In addition to the technology, many KND operatives also wear helmets similar to kabuto or samurai helmets - an example being Supreme Leader Numbuh 362. A common theme of the show is the introduction of a new never-before-seen device, complete with its own acronym, in a sidebar screen that temporarily interrupts the storyline. It is interesting to note that many of these devices require military-level driving or piloting skills in order for them to be operated effectively. Characters.

''Codename: Kids Next Door'', also known as ''Kids Next Door'' or by its abbreviated acronym ''KND'', is an American animated television series created by Tom Warburton (credited as "Mr Warburton") for Cartoon Network, and the 13th of the network's ''Cartoon Cartoons''. The series follows the adventures of a diverse group of five 5th-grade children who operate from a high-tech tree house, fighting against adult and teen villains with advanced 2×4 technology. Using their codenames (Numbuhs 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5), they are Sector V, part of a global organization called the Kids Next Door. The series came about as the result of a viewer's poll by Cartoon Network. It ran from 2002 to 2008, with six seasons and 78 episodes. Two television films were broadcast: ''Operation: Z.E.R.O.'', which aired in 2006, and ''Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S.'', which aired as the series finale in 2008. A special half-hour crossover episode with fellow Cartoon Network series, ''The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy'', aired in 2007. Two video games, ''Operation S.O.D.A.'' and ''Operation V.I.D.E.O.G.A.M.E.'', were released based on the series. A handful of other Cartoon Network-branded games featuring the characters were also released. The series has also seen releases on DVD, both as part of ''Codename: Kids Next Door'' and as additions to other Cartoon Network compilation DVDs. The show revolves around a group of five 10-year old kids, using codenames Numbers 1 through 5, who are the main home operatives of what is known as Sector V, which is part of a worldwide espionage-style organization called the Kids Next Door. Their mission is to fight crimes against kids (such as homework and flossing), many of which are willingly committed by "evil" adults, senior citizens, teenagers, and other children. Numbuh 1 is the bald, astute, no-nonsense British-American boy Nigel Uno, leader of Sector V. Numbuh 2 is overweight, intellectual, aviation enthusiastic, pun-cracking German-American boy Hoagie Gilligan Jr. Numbuh 3 is the happy-go-lucky Japanese-American girl Kuki Sanban. Numbuh 4 is the short-tempered and fighting-prone Australian-American boy Wallabee Beatles. Numbuh 5 is the intelligent, laid-back, tomboyish African-American girl Abigail Lincoln. Following a period of training, every member of the Kids Next Door chooses a number or alphanumeric code (deliberately pronounced and spelled as "Numbuh") and is sent to a "sector" that acts as their home base. The sector headquarters, like some of the organization's bases and facilities, are tree houses, with both treehouse and the tree it's in being of ludicrous proportions, and often suited to their environment. This includes a base constructed beneath the Arctic ice shelf, and a base built into a large pine tree. The main headquarters of the Kids Next Door is a treehouse Moon Base. Kids follow their oath of protecting other kids as well as battling adulthood until the age of 13 when they are "decommissioned", a process of wiping their memories of any past KND activity and warping their minds. Such a practice has inevitably led to the creation of many KND villains who escaped decommissioning (such as Numbuh 5's older sister Cree, formerly known as Numbuh 11, and Chad, formerly known as Numbuh 274 and supreme commander of the Kids Next Door). The practice of strict decommissioning at age 13 was later on revealed to be subject to exceptions: kids who are deemed exceptional agents are offered the chance to carry on in KND as spies infiltrating the teen organization. Decommissioning has also proved reversible due to a "re-commissioning" module used four times in the series (once in Operation: E.N.D. and three times in Operation: Z.E.R.O.). KND agents utilize a vast array of mechanical, electronic gadgets, weapons, and machinery, collectively referred to as 2x4 (two-by-four) technology. The KND's 2x4 technology was originally conceived as being constructed from an assortment of objects, mostly including those that are found in common households; a theme their technology continued to adhere to. However, as the series progressed, the kind of objects their technology was constructed from became bigger, consisting of things such as large vehicles and small buildings. Not only that, but the complexity of their technology, such as their defensive weaponry and means of transportation, advanced to such absurd levels as to be considered science fiction, despite all of it still being constructed from nothing but said an assortment of objects. Some KND operatives also wear helmets, with some similar to kabuto or samurai helmets, an example being Supreme Leader Numbuh 362's helmet. The episodes are titularly presented as the missions of the members of Sector V in the Kids Next Door, denoted as ''"Operation:"'' followed by an acronym that can give viewers clues as to what each mission is about. Most episodes are divided into two parts, each a different mission, while some episodes consist of two directly linked parts with one mission. Usually, the episodes have very little continuity with each other, although occasionally an episode will have a reference to at least one earlier episode and/or lead to consequences in later ones. Season Five's "Operation: O.U.T.B.R.E.A.K." is a direct continuation of the episode "Operation: V.I.R.U.S.", and Season Six's "Operation: S.C.I.E.N.C.E." leads into "Operation: A.M.I.S.H." while another pair of Season Six episodes; "Operation: R.E.C.E.S.S." and "Operation: H.A.M.S.T.E.R.", occur simultaneously, the latter showing what sort of thing transpires while the team is away. Stories in the earlier episodes were often about typical childhood problems but magnified and exaggerated. As the series progressed, a more complex and continuous storyline developed. The final season revolved around a mysterious splinter cell within the KND itself observing Numbuh One for an unknown assignment, which was concluded in the series finale "Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S.". The show frequently contains references to many films and other television series, especially in the later seasons, such as ''Star Wars'', ''Ghostbusters'', ''Planet of the Apes'', ''Jaws'', ''Jurassic Park'', ''The Lord of the Rings'', ''Godzilla'', ''The Terminator'', ''Spider-Man'', ''Dragon Ball Z'', ''James Bond'', ''Star Trek'', ''Transformers'', ''Harry Potter'', ''Rambo'', ''Alien'', ''The Matrix'', ''X-Men'', ''Predator'', ''RoboCop'', ''Men in Black'', ''Doctor Who'', ''Indiana Jones'', and ''Mission Impossible''; with ''James Bond'', ''Star Trek'', and ''Star Wars'' being the most prominently referenced in the series. Warburton created a pilot episode, titled "Diseasy Does It", for another planned show, ''Kenny and the Chimp'', which was to be produced by Hanna-Barbera. Among the planned recurring characters for ''Kenny and the Chimp'' was a group of rebellious children known as "Those Kids Next Door", who carried out their mischief from a house next to Kenny's home, and frequently caused trouble for him. The plot-line was then changed to focus on the group of kids alone, and later, the kids battling adulthood. In 2001, the show's pilot episode, "No P in the OOL", which was produced at Cartoon Network Studios, won a Cartoon Network viewer's poll, and as a result, ''Codename: Kids Next Door'' was greenlit to become a series, while ''Kenny and the Chimp'' was not greenlit by the channel. The character Professor XXXL, that appeared in "Diseasy Does It", became a recurring character in ''Codename: Kids Next Door'' after ''Kenny and the Chimp'' was not picked up for a series. Despite this, Kenny and Chimpy did make a cameo in "No P In The OOL". The show was originally supposed to be titled ''the Kids Next Door'', but "Codename" was added, when the crew discovered that a rival network, mainly the Fox Family Channel (Now Freeform), developed a TV show titled ''Pigs Next Door.'' ''Codename: Kids Next Door'' was the most popular TV series produced at Curious Pictures, who previously did the work on ''Sheep in the Big City'' at Cartoon Network. * Numbuh 1/Nigel Uno (voiced by Benjamin Diskin) - the leader and head operative of Sector V * Numbuh 2/Hogarth Pennywhistle "Hoagie" Gilligan, Jr. (voiced by Benjamin Diskin) - the joke-cracking engineer of Sector V * Numbuh 3/Kuki Sanban (voiced by Lauren Tom) - the happy-go-lucky tactician and medic of Sector V * Numbuh 4/Wallabee "Wally" Beatles (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) - the brash combatant of Sector V * Numbuh 5/Abigail "Abby" Lincoln (voiced by Cree Summer) - the intelligent, relaxed second-in-command/spy of Sector V. * Numbuh 86/Fanny Fulbright (voiced by Jennifer Hale), the Head of Decommissioning and Global Tactical Officer of the KND Organization * Numbuh 362/Rachel McKenzie (voiced by Rachael MacFarlane), the Supreme Leader of the KND Organization * Numbuh T/Thomas "Tommy" Gilligan (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker), Numbuh 2's little brother. * The Delightful Children from Down the Lane (voiced by Benjamin Diskin, Dee Bradley Baker, and Cree Summer), five spoiled kids, and Father's children * Father/Benedict Uno (voiced by Maurice LaMarche in Father mode and Jeff Bennett in Benedict mode), the archnemesis of the KND and the main antagonist of the series * Mr. Boss (voiced by Jeff Bennett), a corporate executive, and the de facto leader of the KND's standard rogue's gallery * Cree Lincoln (voiced by Cree Summer), Numbuh 5's teenage sister, and leader of the Teen Ninjas * Knightbrace (voiced by Tom Kenny), an oral health-themed villain who performs painful and unnecessary dental and orthodontic procedures * Stickybeard (voiced by Mark Hamill), a candy-loving pirate * The Toiletnator (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker), a toilet-themed incompetent villain, being considered the lamest villain by the KND and by other villains * Crazy Old Cat Lady (voiced by Grey DeLisle), an old woman who lives with thousands of black and white cats * Gramma Stuffum (voiced by Grey DeLisle), an old lady obsessed with force-feeding her disgusting food to children * Mr. Wink and Mr. Fibb (voiced by Tom Kenny and Dee Bradley Baker), a pair of villains who use robotic chairs to fight * Henrietta "Heinrich" Von Marzipan (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker while cursed and Candi Milo while uncursed), Numbuh 5's rival, who looks for candy treasures * Count Spankulot (voiced by Daran Norris), a vampire who spanks naughty children * Ice Cream Men (voiced by Tom Kenny, Dee Bradley Baker, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Daran Norris), men who operate Ice Cream Trucks, and serve mainly as henchmen to the Delightful Children and Father * Senior Citizen Squad (voiced by Candi Milo, Tom Kenny, and Dee Bradley Baker), a group of senior citizens led by Numbuh 2's grandmother, Lydia Gilligan, who along with her companions, Sheldon and Maurice, use an anti-aging cream that temporarily turns them into teenagers. * Lizzie Devine (voiced by Grey DeLisle), Numbuh 1's ex-girlfriend * Numbuh 0/Montgomery "Monty" Uno (voiced by Frank Welker in adult mode and Dave Wittenberg in Numbuh 0 mode), Numbuh 1's father * Betty Gilligan (voiced by Candi Milo), Numbuh 2's mother * Sydney Beetles (voiced by Jeff Bennett), Numbuh 4's father * Joey Beetles (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker), Numbuh 4's baby brother * Mushi Sanban (voiced by Tara Strong), Numbuh 3's little sister * Genki Sanban (voiced by Lauren Tom), Numbuh 3's mother * Kani Sanban (voiced by Keone Young), Numbuh 3's father * Numbuh 83/Sonia (voiced by Janice Kawaye), The Soda, Snacks, and Treats officer of Sector W * Numbuh 84/Lee (voiced by Janice Kawaye) The actical Yo-yo Specialist of Sector W * Dr. Lincoln (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson), Numbuh 5's Father who is inspired by Cliff Huxtable from The Cosby Show * Mrs. Lincoln (voiced by Cree Summer), Numbuh 5's mother * Mrs. Beetles (voiced by Jennifer Hale), Numbuh 4's mother * Mrs. Uno (voiced by Jennifer Hale), Numbuh 1's mother.

On January 31, 2008, during a Q&A session on LiveJournal, when Tom Warburton was asked if "Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S." was in fact the true finale of ''Codename: KND'', Warburton said that it was not necessarily meant to be the finale, stating that a revival could be made in the future. Warburton had unsuccessfully pitched a ''Galactic: Kids Next Door'' spin-off several times to Cartoon Network executives, and at one point he considered to make a TV movie as a pilot for the potential spin-off series. Following having any response, Warburton eventually decided to create a pitch that would be distributed over the internet pseudonymously in order to try and get the series approved with help from fans. Warburton wrote the script and collaborated with others who had worked on the series to produce an animatic-style pitch. On March 19, 2015, a video was posted on YouTube of what appears to be an animatic of a darker sequel series featuring Numbuh 1 and the Galactic KND, entitled ''Galactic: Kids Next Door''. On April 1, 2015, a fan-made petition was started on Change.org to make ''G:KND'' a real series, which currently has around 3,000 signatures and was also signed by Warburton himself and by voice actor Dee Bradley Baker. http://warburtonlabs.blogspot.pe/2015/06/the-gknd-experiment-part-9.html , Tom Warburton.

Codename: Kids Next Door , also known as Kids Next Door or by its acronym KND , is an American animated television series created by Tom Warburton and produced by Curious Pictures in Santa Monica, California. [ 1 ] The series debuted on Cartoon Network on December 6, 2002 and aired its final episode on January 25, 2008. The series came about as the result of a viewer's poll by Cartoon Network. [ 2 ] The main characters of the series are five 10-year-old children who operate from their high-tech tree house. Their mission is to fight "crimes" against children (such as homework and flossing) committed by adults, senior citizens, teenagers, and other evil children. They make up what is known as Sector V of a worldwide organization called the Kids Next Door. The show was also part of Cartoon Network's series, Cartoon Cartoons , and is the 13th Cartoon of the series. On April 13, 2012, this series returned to Cartoon Network in re-runs on the revived block, "Cartoon Planet". [ 3 ] Contents. Overview. Production history. Mr. Warburton created a pilot episode for another show, Kenny and the Chimp . Originally, there was a group of children who called themselves "The Kids Next Door" among the recurring characters, and would often get Kenny into trouble. The plot-line was then changed to focus on the group of kids alone, and later, the kids battling adulthood. [ 4 ] In 2001, the show's pilot episode, "No P in the OOL", won a Cartoon Network viewer's poll, and as a result, Codename: Kids Next Door was greenlit to become a series. [ 5 ] Storylines. The episodes are titled as the Kids Next Door's missions, denoted as "Operation:" followed by an acronym which often gives viewers clues as to what the episode is about. The episodes have little continuity, although occasionally missions make a reference to earlier episodes, or lead to consequences in another. Mostly in the earlier episodes, the stories were often about typical childhood problems, but magnified and exaggerated; as the series progressed, a more complex storyline developed. KND Organization. The Kids Next Door Organization is a worldwide group comprising thousands of kids joined in mutual struggle against adult tyranny. They fight villains that embody specific menaces to children overall (such as dental hygiene school lunch). For every member of Kids Next Door, upon following a period of training, they then choose a number or alphanumerical code (deliberately spelled "numbuh,") and sent to a "sector", that is, a tree house of ludicrous proportions. The main headquarters of the Kids Next Door is a tree house Moon Base. Kids follow their oath of protecting other kids as well as battling adulthood until the age of 13, when they are "decommissioned", a process of wiping their minds of memories of any past KND activity, as they are then teenagers, and a threat to KND. Such a practice has inevitably led to the creation of many KND villains (notably Cree, Numbuh 5's older sister, and Chad, formerly numbuh 274 and supreme commander of the Kids Next Door). The practice of strict decommissioning at age 13 was later on revealed to be subject to some exceptions: kids who have proved to be exceptional agents are offered the chance to carry on in KND as spies infiltrating the teen organization. [ 6 ] Decommissioning has also proved reversible due to a "re-comissioning" module used twice in the series. Technology. KND agents utilize a vast array of mechanical, electronic gadgets, and machinery; collectively referred to as 2x4 (two-by-four) technology. The KND 2x4 technology was originally conceived as an assortment of common household objects, being put to use in combat situation; a theme that their weapons continued to adhere to. However, as the series progressed, the complexity of their defensive weaponry and transportation advanced to such absurd levels as to be considered science fiction, despite all of it still being constructed with nothing but household materials. A common theme of the show is the introduction of a new never-before-seen device, complete with its own acronym, in a sidebar screen that temporarily interrupts the storyline. It is interesting to note that many of these devices require military-level driving or piloting skills, in order for them to operate effectively. However not all of the technology is made of other items. Characters. Sector V. Numbuh 1 / Nigel Uno (voiced by Benjamin Diskin) - The leader of Sector V, a baldBritish boy who is rarely seen without his trademark sunglasses, and does not put complete trust in anyone but his teammates. He is a workaholic who consistently puts business before himself. His uncommon baldness is due to an unexplained event involving the Delightful Children from Down the Lane, and Numbuh 5's shirking of duties (as mentioned in episode "F.O.U.N.T.A.I.N."). Throughout the series, his girlfriend is Lizzie Devine, but their relationship came to an end when she explained that she was tired of his always putting KND priorities over her. [ 7 ] He is the only operative on his team without a sibling. Before a fight, he shouts his signature war cry: "Kids Next Door. battle stations!". Numbuh 2 / Hogarth "Hoagie" Pennywhistle Gilligan Jr. (voiced by Benjamin Diskin) - An inventor and pilot with a passion for flight, who wears an old fashioned aviator hat. Numbuh 2 builds all the technology used by his sector. He is an overweight Swiss American boy who enjoys cracking puns at every chance possible. Hoagie is also Numbuh 1's best friend. His interests besides flight include trading cards and being a detective. It has been implied that he had feelings for Numbuh 5, and in Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S. , it was shown that they had gotten married. Numbuh 3 / Kuki Sanban (voiced by Lauren Tom) - An unusually happy Japanese girl whose love for every creature almost always interferes with her responsibilities. She is a great fan of Rainbow Monkeys, a stuffed bear toy series, and will often irrationally defend them, occasionally allowing her insanely aggressive side to show. She and Numbuh 4 share feelings for each other. Her last name, "Sanban" is Japanese for "Number Three". In contrast with her innocent, gentle and happy-go-lucky personality, she is the pilot of a giant robotic rabbit which is thoroughly armed with missiles. Numbuh 4 / Wallabee "Wally" Beatles (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) - A short, Australian boy known for acting without thinking. Numbuh 4 wears an orange hooded sweater, blue jeans, and has blonde hair. He is a jock and a bully on occasion, as he is the most capable when it comes to physical fighting; however, he is arguably the least intelligent KND operative, which leads to him being easily fooled and most usually selected for dangerous parts in missions. He is barely literate and is ignorant in basic knowledge of English and mathematics, reflected by his grades in school. It is also clearly apparent he has a crush on Numbuh 3, which runs throughout the series, including in Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S. , where it was shown that they are married. Numbuh 5 / Abigail "Abby" Lincoln (voiced by Cree Summer) - An intelligent and laid back tomboy of French and African-American descent; she keeps her head cool even in the worst situations. Abigail rarely overreacts in their missions, and sometimes tries to calm her friends, and even friends that have become enemies. She talks in third person much of the time, and loves sweets - most notably ice cream. Her dream was to taste the legendary Fourth Flavor of ice-cream, which she accomplished in "Operation F.L.A.V.O.R.". [ 8 ] She is the oldest operative in Sector V. In I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S it is shown that she takes over sector V in wake of Numbuh 1's departure, and eventually, she became the supreme leader of KND. Villains. Mr. Boss (voiced by Jeff Bennett) - A child-hating corporate executive. He often holds gatherings for the other villains of the series. It is revealed that he is also Numbuh 86's father. Count Spankulot (voiced by Daran Norris) - A spoof of Count Dracula, he is a vampire who spanks naughty children. The count made his brief debut in the episode Operation: C.A.N.N.O.N to spank the KND for not returning their library books on time and has become a recurring character ever since. By removing one of his gloves, he can turn people into spank-happy vampires like himself, and they can only change back to normal if he himself is spanked. Cree Lincoln (voiced by Cree Summer) - Numbuh 5's teenage sister and Father's apprentice. She first appeared in the season 2 episode Operation: S.U.P.P.O.R.T. . She is formerly a KND operative: Numbuh 11, leader and 2x4 tech officer of Sector V three years prior to the start of the series. The Delightful Children From Down the Lane (voiced by Benjamin Diskin, Dee Bradley Baker, and Cree Summer) - Five well-behaved snooty children who move and talk in perfect synchronization. They obey all adults, especially their father: Father, and are the most recurring villains of the series. Rather than interfere themselves, the Delightful Children usually stand back and let a giant robot or super-powered minion do their work. In Operation: Z.E.R.O. , it's revealed that they're the lost KND operatives of Sector Z, having been "delightfulized" by Father. Their names are Bruce (short, blonde boy), Lenny (helmet boy), David (tall, brunette boy), Ashley (tall, blonde girl) and Ogie (brunette girl). Father / Benedict Uno (voiced by Maurice LaMarche in Father mode and Jeff Bennett in Benedict mode) - An adult who constantly wears a suit of shadows, and is the KND's greatest enemy. He first appeared in the season 1 finale: Operation: G.R.O.W.-U.P. . His powers include pyrokinesis, levitation, mind control, and shape-shifting. In Operation: Z.E.R.O. , it is revealed that he's Numbuh 1's paternal uncle. Grandma Stuffum (voiced by Grey DeLisle) - A fat old German woman who creates gross armies of living food to fatten kids up to obese proportions so they won't cause trouble. Henrietta "Heinrich" Von Marzipan (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker and Candi Milo) - He is Numbuh 5's chubby German candy-hunting rival with blonde hair, blue eyes and a monocle. He speaks with a German accent and loves candy, just like his rival Numbuh 5. He is based on the Nazis from Indiana Jones films. In Operation: C.A.R.A.M.E.L. it is revealed that Heinrich is actually a girl. In the episode, magic Caramels can be created by ritual that takes away one's most cherished quality. In turn for this sacrifice, the caramels become delicious. Henrietta created the caramels using her femininity, and then ate what she believed to be all of them. Numbuh 5 kept the last remaining caramel that contained Heinrich's femininity and was able to reverse the ritual. Knightbrace / Mr. Jelly (voiced by Tom Kenny) - A villain obsessed with dental and oral hygiene. Stickybeard (voiced by Mark Hamill) - A candy-hunting pirate who sails the suburbs in his ship, The Sweet Revenge , with his crew of pirates, robbing kids of their candy. Toiletnator / Lou Pottingsworth III (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) - The most pathetic villain in the series, considered an embarrassment by the other villains, to whom he's constantly trying to prove himself. He has control over toilets and toiletries. He's also the self-proclaimed arch-nemesis of Numbuh 4, who's later revealed to be his nephew in the comic story Operation: H.I.S.T.O.R.I.E. . Other characters. Numbuh 6 / Bradley / R.O.B.O.B.R.A.D.L.E.Y. (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) - A skunk found and adopted by Numbuhs 2 and 3 in Operation: C.A.M.P. . Though Numbuh 1 originally disliked him due to his being a distraction to the others, he apologized after Bradley and his real parents saved the team from an evil camp counselor. Numbuh 1 then granted Bradley the status of honorary operative Numbuh Six. He returned in Operation: H.O.S.P.I.T.A.L. , where he's rebuilt as a cyborg called "R.O.B.O.B.R.A.D.L.E.Y." ( R obotic O perative's B allistic O dor- B lasting R ocket A rmed D errier L aunches E xtreme Y uckiness ) due to near-fatal injuries from a spying mission. He made one last appearance in Operation: S.I.X. . Numbuh 60 / Patton Drilovsky (voiced by Matt Levin) - a high-ranking Canadian operative and the drill sergeant stationed at the Kids Next Door Arctic Base who's in charge of training new recruits to the Kids Next Door Organization. He is occasionally seen in various episodes in either at the Kids Next Door Moonbase or Kids Next Door Arctic Base. Numbuh 86 / Fanny Fulbright (voiced by Jennifer Hale) - The Kids Next Door's head-of-decommissioning. She speaks with a Scottish accent and yells a lot. She is also known to underestimate boys, often calling them "stupid" and believes girls are far superior. It is revealed in "Operation: END" she has a small crush on Numbuh 4. Numbuh 274 / Chad Dickson (voiced by Jason Harris) - In season 2, it's shown that he's the KND's supreme commander, however, in the season 2 finale Operation: E.N.D. he betrayed his fellow operatives by hiding that he turned 13 years old. In the following seasons, he joined the Teens and became a recurring villain. But in the season 6 finale Operation: T.R.E.A.T.Y. , it's revealed that he was working undercover for the KND. He is also the son of villains Mega-Mom and Destructo-Dad. Numbuh 362 / Rachel T. McKenzie (voiced by Rachael MacFarlane) - Introduced in the season 2 episode Operation: F.U.G.I.T.I.V.E. as the KND's top spy, it was revealed in the season 3 episode Operation: G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S. that she'd taken the position of supreme leader after Numbuh 274's "betrayal." It is later suggested in the series that she has a crush on Numbuh 1. Also, she's one of the only characters to regularly change her wardrobe. Lizzie Devine (voiced by Grey DeLisle) - She is Numbuh 1's chubby American girlfriend with ginger hair and glasses. She is very possessive over him and will often go out of her way to try to get him to spend more time with her. She gets angry when he puts his KND work before her and his tendency to jilt her or break off dates just to go on missions. Even though she continued to tolerate it, she eventually breaks up with him after realizing that his job is what he loves the most and not her. Tommy Gilligan (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) - Numbuh 2's little brother, first appearing in Operation: T.O.M.M.Y. He originally sought to join the KND as "Numbuh T" (despite, as was continuously pointed out to him, T not being a number), which the others agreed to after his helping them in the season 2 finale Operation: E.N.D. . However, he was forced to quit to save them from Father in Operation: G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S. and, due to a computer safeguard, was unable to rejoin. As such, he continued to defend kids as a vigilante, "The Tommy". Episodes.
