Kim Possible is an American animated action comedy-adventure television series created by Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle that originally aired on the Disney Channel from June 7, 2002 to September 7, 2007. The series revolves around high school cheerleader Kim Possible (Christy Carlson Romano) – a teenage crime-fighter tasked with saving the world on a regular basis while coping with everyday personal and social issues commonly associated with adolescence. Kim is aided by her clumsy best friend and sidekick Ron Stoppable (Will Friedle), his pet naked mole rat Rufus (Nancy Cartwright), and Wade (Tahj Mowry), a 10 year-old computer genius. The majority of Team Possible's missions require them to thwart the evil plans of Dr. Drakken (John DiMaggio) and his sidekick Shego (Nicole Sullivan), a relentless mad scientist and supervillain duo, but Kim and Ron occasionally encounter other enemies as well.

Veteran Disney Channel writers, Schooley and McCorkle were recruited by the network to develop an animated series capable of attracting both younger and older audiences, and conceived Kim Possible as a show about a teenage girl who can do anything, and her less competent sidekick. Inspired by the scarcity of female-led animated series as well as their own daughters, the episodes, some of which are based on the creators' own high school experiences, combine elements of action, adventure, romance and comedy to appeal to both girls and boys, while parodying the James Bond franchise, spy and superhero films, and teen sitcoms. Distinct in its humor from other Disney Channel series, Schooley and McCorkle developed a fast-paced sitcom-style dialogue to appeal to adult viewers and parents. The series hosts a cast of actors familiar to the Disney Channel, as well as established voice actors and comedians from other well known animated programs. With an emphasis on modern-day technology, the series touches upon themes and subjects such as feminism and the friend zone.

Kim Possible was the second animated Disney Channel Original Series, and the first series to be produced by Walt Disney Television Animation, in association with Disney Channel. Kim Possible received positive reviews throughout its run, praised for its humor and smart writing that appealed to both younger and older viewers. Lasting four seasons, Kim Possible was Disney Channel's longest-running original animated series until surpassed by Phineas and Ferb. The success of the show spawned two television films, Kim Possible: A Sitch in Time and Kim Possible Movie: So the Drama, as well as several video games. Recorded by singer Christina Milian, the show's theme song "Call Me, Beep Me" topped the Radio Disney charts, becoming so popular among fans to the point of which it benefited Milian's career.
