Ozzy & Drix

When I was younger I used to love this series and had no idea that it was based on a theatrically released movie. I sat down to watch the movie and had a mixed expirience. It was OK, but had too much low brow jokes and an unlikable "host". No wonder it bombed hard in theaters, but then came this much better series.

It pretty much continues where the movie ended when Osmosis and Drix gets transferred to the teenage boy Hector (thank god they did that) and starts all over as detectives.

The series is much more clever and introduces more likable newcomers. The mayor is still a mean youngster, but hey, it's a teenage body so why not have a self-absorbed teenager as its mayor? The police officers are skeptical about the duo's abilities, but they mostly get along.

The new voice actors for our main characters do excellent jobs at imitating the originals which I very much appreciate. And the villainous characters have a lot to offer among others the wonderful Tim Curry being there not one but two times in the first episode and in one about smoking.

The humor can still be juvenile at times, but it never comes out of nowhere or without its purpose and it still has an educational side to it. It can be preachy at times, but that happens little enough not to make a wrong impression.

I think it could have lasted longer, but I guess it's a thing at WB to cancel many of their good tv-shows. I enjoyed Ozzy & Drix and recommend the episodes "Where There's Smoke" and the double "An Out of Body Expirience" for some god performances and good humour.

The new Kids WB show, Ozzie + Drix, is just like the movie Osmosis Jones which this show is based on. In the beginning, the title stars are inside Frank (Bill Murray's character from the film) but are transported to the body of a thirteen year old named Hector via a mosquito. In this new body, the duo now protects it just they did for Frank. Ozzie + Drix has very similar animation and voices from the movie. All I know is that I now watch Saturday Morning cartoons again.

I haven't seen Ozzy & Drix much when I was little when I saw it on Kids' WB and it reran on Cartoon Network, and I also wish they didn't cancel the show. Speaking of that, why was it cancelled?

This show was 10 times more better than the movie, this show was actually a success unlike the movie. The movie was so unsuccessful that Ozzy & Drix was created to make the series look more better, and they succeeded. I don't understand why the movie was unsuccessful but yet it went to DVD and VHS but the show did not and it was totally more better than the movie. I think this show should be brought out of Warner Bros storage and onto Warner Bros DVD, this show deserves to be put on DVD after the successful rating it was given. I want to make this happen, there is a website where you can vote for your favorite TV show to be on DVD, and in case you guys are interested you can sign up on that website and vote for Ozzy & Drix to be on DVD.

I love Ozzy and Drix just as much as I love the movie! But I noticed people saying the smoking episode was "scary" because of Nick O'Teen. I agree with that. I honestly think that if this show was to come out today, it would probably be on The CW. I would think a reboot to the show would be a departure from its edutainment factor and light, "kiddie" tone, only for it to secure more mature material and themes, a darker, "gothic" tone, and incorporate more high school and college-related tropes (speaking of which, the show ITSELF would be a teen drama). The soundtrack would be mostly pre-existing pop-punk songs from the likes of My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, Evanescence, Avril Lavigne, Pierce The Veil, Linkin Park, Green Day, Paramore, etc. I mean, Ozzy would've been full-on Daria Morgendorffer. Characters would've been in college (18-22). They would've made a lot of references to pop culture. I really do think that a reboot to the series would be very reminiscent of movies and TV shows like Scream, Daria, Twilight, Jennifer's Body, Ruby Gloom, Vampire Diaries, etc. That is EXACTLY what I would think a Ozzy and Drix reboot would be like.
