Phineas and Ferb
Scored from 105 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: TV Series · 2000s (1,360 peers).
Summary
Stepbrothers Phineas Flynn and Ferb Fletcher spend the 104 days of summer vacation in the suburb of Danville building impossible things: a backyard roller coaster, a rocket, a one-hit-wonder rock band. Their teenage sister Candace devotes herself to busting them, dragging their mother Linda outside as proof only for the evidence to vanish moments before she arrives. In a parallel plot, the family's pet platypus Perry slips away to work as secret Agent P against Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, whose latest -inator scheme usually collides with the boys' project and erases it. Dan Povenmire and Jeff Marsh's Disney Channel cartoon runs on original songs and repeated catchphrases.
Released in 2007, Phineas and Ferb is an action, adventure and animation television series. A typical episode runs 22 minutes. It was made in the United States. It is rated TV-G.
A second review pool sits behind it as well: 57 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. 1,359 other television series from the 2000s form the cohort it is ranked inside. 105 IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 116 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Phineas and Ferb lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against TV Series · 2000s (1,360 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 105.
