Lauded by kids and adults around the world, the animated series "Phineas and Ferb" reached another pinnacle by inspiring a Disney Channel Original Movie "Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension," and, in its premiere telecast, the movie soared to become TV's No. 1 scripted telecast of 2011 to date among Kids 6-11 (3.4 million/13.8 rating), TV's No. 1 movie among Tweens 9-14 (2.6 million/10.8 rating) and cable's No. 1 movie of the year in Total Viewers (7.6 million).

"Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension" was easily the No. 1 Friday TV telecast this summer in Total Viewers, and beat all broadcast competition head to head among Adults 18-49 (1.7 million/1.3 rating).

From Disney Television Animation, the action-packed adventure is filled with outstanding songs, multi-level humor and themes of family, friends and the freedom of summer, as stepbrothers Phineas and Ferb (and their pet, Perry the Platypus) tackle a whole new dimension controlled by a truly evil Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
