Leave your comments on this post, with 1 question per comment for the creators of Disney's Phineas and Ferb. Next week on Buzznet's homepage we will be running a feature with the creators of Phineas and Ferb answering as many of your quesitons as possible.

Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh (the creators of Phineas and Ferb) met while working as layout artists on The Simpsons. Soon after, they moved to Nickelodeon to work on Rocko's Modern Life. Together they created Phineas and Ferb and the show ended up on Disney after 16 years of pitching it to different channels.

If you are not familiar with Phineas and Ferb we have two videos you can watch here and here.

Buzznet is going to be choosing the best of the best questions left as comments on this post and we will be passing them along to Disney to get these answered.

	k-ron: 06/29/2009 1:34 PM what is each of your favorite cartoons growing up?
	macaronimichelle: 06/29/2009 1:45 PM how long does it take to make an episode?
	katiejrod: 06/29/2009 2:38 PM out of all the episodes, which one would you like to experience as phineas and/or pherb? (i.e. build and ride on your own roller coaster, star in a one-hit-wonder rock band, build a water slide around big ben, etc.) PS. i love your show. keep up the great work!
	tookiebelle: 06/29/2009 2:43 PM Why did you pick Bowling For Soup to sing the theme song?
	jedijay: 06/29/2009 3:13 PM I have noticed a dearth of merchandise available for purchase. Are we going to see a soundtrack for all the great songs the show has? And, relatedly, I have both DVD releases...are season sets going to be available for purchase in the near future? Plus, you guys have graced Disney with so many great ideas, you could open a "Danville" section at Disney World with Rollercoaster, shuttle simulator, a hokey recording booth to create your own "one hit wonder", a Perry the Platypus ride would be easy to do! And they GOTTA be planning a Platypus themed restaraunt! Any possibility the Parks are gonna throw some love that way? Sorry for rambling, my entire family LOVES this show, from 32 year old-Dad to 3 week old named "Phineas". Keep up the great work, gang!
	savethepoppunk72: 06/29/2009 4:59 PM why did you pick a platypus to be their pet/undercover spy instead of a regular pet?

	sanjan53: 06/29/2009 11:25 PM will Candice ever manage to convince their Mum about what Phineas and Ferb get up to?
	Alexher123: 06/30/2009 1:44 AM The show seems to share a similar style to a certain crop of 90s cartoons, is that a by product of having worked on rockos modern life, or just pure accident?
	markduke: 06/30/2009 3:25 AM why does the show suck?
	mikeyxrandom: 06/30/2009 7:28 AM markduke said: why does the show suck? stfu
	katiejrod: 06/30/2009 11:31 AM not sure if the answer's already on the web, sooo.... when you were casting the show, did you know who you wanted as each role? or did you have a long list? auditions? etc.?
