2003 Danny Phantom Pitch Reel

This is a 22-minute pitch reel from July 2003 that is hosted by Fred the Ostrich and Ralph the Bear telling Nickelodeon to air a new Nicktoons series featuring Nick's first superhero. It also features a group of Whatnots and several other characters from previous Fred the Ostrich specials along with Fred the Ostrich & Friends, including Boogedy, Glare, a yet-unnamed Donald, Larry the Dairy Monster, an early Ernie Monster, Gary the Green Elephant, Bob the Blue Giraffe, the Sunny Day Monster, and three ostriches in a board meeting. There, they argue over which gets to be the official title for the first superhero show. At the pitch reel's conclusion, Fred dismisses the group, and Ralph thinks of a plot of a new series about a teenage boy who fights ghosts with a help of a geek boy and a Goth girl. Fred suggests that he should get a show an official title called "Danny Phantom" which they should let Nickelodeon air it next year.
