Ким Поссибл: Әрекетке толы өмір және жаңа буынның қаһарманы

Fictional character from Kim Possible

Kimberly Ann "Kim" Possible is a fictional character and the title protagonist of the animated Disney television series of the same name. voiced by actress Christy Carlson Romano. She was created by the show's creators Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle and debuted in the pilot "Crush", which premiered on June 7, 2002. She starred in each of the show's 87 episodes and last appeared in the hour long series finale "Graduation", which originally aired on September 7, 2007. A high school cheerleader moonlighting as a teenage crime fighter, special agent, and spy most of her missions involve thwarting the plans of her archenemy Dr. Drakken, a mad scientist, and other villains while facing everyday challenges commonly associated with adolescence. Inspired by their own daughters, Schooley and McCorkle conceived Kim as a teenage girl capable of doing anything, basing her on their childhood hero James Bond. Upon noticing the relative lack of strong female leads in children's animation, they decided to reverse traditional gender roles by making Kim the show's action hero, accompanied by a male comedic sidekick, Ron Stoppable. Unlike traditional superheroes, she lacks superpowers and a secret identity; her crime fighting abilities are instead drawn from her cheerleading experience, making her more relatable to young viewers. She was originally designed as a bombshell based on Lara Croft, but her appearance was ultimately altered to resemble a teenage girl instead. When Kim Possible premiered in 2002, Kim was well liked by both female and male audiences and has since been positively received by critics as a positive role model for young women. They compared her to previous crime fighting television heroines, such as Buffy Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Sydney Bristow from Alias. She has also earned the respect of feminist critics, who appreciated that she defied gender roles and challenged negative stereotypes associated with cheerleaders. She is also a fashion trendsetter, as her wardrobe is believed to have helped popularize crop tops and cargo pants during the early 2000s. The success of the show inspired the release of two television films, Kim Possible: A Sitch in Time (2003) and Kim Possible Movie: So the Drama (2005), as well as a video game series, which Kim also starred in.

She fights crime alongside her best friend and eventual boyfriend and sidekick Ron Stoppable (Will Friedle), aided by his pet naked mole rat Rufus (Nancy Cartwright) and computer genius Wade (Tahj Mowry). She lives in the fictional town of Middleton, USA with her parents James (Gary Cole) and Ann (Jean Smart), who work as a rocket scientist and neurosurgeon respectively, and her younger brothers, identical twins Jim and Tim. Kim goes on missions to save the world from danger at the hands of various supervillains and evil geniuses. Her most consistent adversaries are mad scientist Dr. Drakken and his sidekick Shego, the latter of whom is a former superheroine and skilled martial artist who has the ability to generate powerful energy blasts from her hands, and serves as her main combatant and threat. Kim becomes a crime fighter unintentionally. In need of a job, she creates her own website to promote her babysitting and lawn mowing services, using the slogan "I can do anything." When a wealthy entrepreneur accidentally contacts Kim Possible instead of Team Impossible when he becomes trapped by his own laser security system, Kim rushes to his aid and uses her gymnastic abilities to disable the device. Although hardly a normal teenager, Kim insists that she is just a "basic average girl" such as maintaining good grades in school, pleasing her parents, learning how to drive, dating and relationships, and attending cheerleading practice. Because Kim is too young to legally drive for most of the series, she relies on favors from friends – typically people she has rescued – for transportation. Both McCorkle and Schooley had worked as writers on the male led animated series Aladdin and Hercules for several years but longed to write "something original", Thus, Schooley and McCorkle conceived Kim as a "girl who can do anything"; Kim Possible offered the writers a first time opportunity to create an entirely new character "from scratch", which Schooley described as a "refreshing" experience in comparison to writing for characters who had already been long established. The recurring character Monique was created because Schooley and McCorkle felt that it would be more realistic if Kim had a female best friend in addition to Ron. Schooley and McCorkle had always wanted Kim and Ron to eventually end up a couple, but avoided this storyline for as long as possible in fear of "paint[ing] [themselves] into a corner". However, Kim eventually relents and insists that her brothers continue attending the same school as her, threatening to leave if they do. McCorkle recalled an incident in which a fan of the show was very much surprised to learn that the writers were actually men upon meeting them; the fan had always just assumed that they were both young women because of the way in which they characterized Kim. For example, when the character is dressed in all black, Kim was drawn without a white outline so that she virtually disappears when she moves in front of a black background, yet her "simple design" and flesh allows audiences to "fill in where her body is" naturally. In the fourth season, the character's signature midriff baring crop top and cargo pants are replaced by a T shirt and pants because the former outfit was damaged during a fight with Shego. The creators wanted to make Kim as believable as possible. Schooley's and McCorkle's own daughters inspired them to conceive Kim as a "character with dimension that girls could watch and appreciate." Although admitting that the character's accomplishments are generally "implausible," Schooley and McCorkle wanted Kim to remain relatable to young viewers, and avoided making her "impervious" like superheroes by giving her "real problems and teen issues." Schooley explained that "What makes Kim effective in the action world is gymnastics, cheerleading, physical activity, something that any kid, any girl, in the world could do." At one point an indestructible supersuit complete with special abilities was created for Kim, but the outfit was ultimately abandoned to avoid contradicting with the character's "she can do anything" motto. and artistic director Alan Bodner. Cartoonist Stephen Silver served as a character animator on the show.

Kim is voiced by American actress Christy Carlson Romano, who was only 16 years old when she was first cast as the character. who turned it down in favor of co starring as Chelsea Daniels in the Disney Channel Original Series That's so Raven. Before being cast as Kim, Romano had already been well known for starring as Ren Stevens in the Disney Channel sitcom Even Stevens. The actress was finally introduced to the show's creators by Disney Channel executives after Schooley and McCorkle had already auditioned several people for the role. Upon being cast as Kim, Romano immediately identified with the character because they were "both dealing with teenage issues" at the time. Like her character, Romano also balanced her acting profession with schoolwork, and agreed that they are both confident in their endeavors. one episode in particular, "Blush", was based on the fact that Romano is a shy and easily embarrassed person who tends to "blush at even the slightest compliment/awkward situation." The writers also gave Kim several interests that are similar to Romano's own. Additionally, Romano's character greatly influenced her own career, and considers Kim to be a positive role model for young girls. Romano identified the season one episode "Mind Games" in which Kim and Ron switch bodies as her favorite. By the end of the series, Romano was 21 years old and attending Columbia University for political science. Describing Kim as independent and athletic, Romano attributes her character's timelessness to her authenticity and genuineness, explaining that she "forged a path and now there are female shows everywhere".

The character's name "Kim Possible" is a portmanteau of the word "impossible". Although she is referred to by several nicknames throughout the series, Kim forgoes a secret identity entirely, and is known as simply "Kim Possible" to "everyone who knows her [and] knows what she does". Kadeen Griffiths of Bustle observed that, instead of a secret identify, Kim maintains "her own website where people could book her for jobs with a tagline that promised that she could do anything", a claim corroborated by the fact that she fights crime while performing well in class and remaining her school's cheerleading captain. Writing for Women Write About Comics, Jamie Kingston observed that Middleton High School "ignores her as a heroine unless something happens on school grounds where she has to do her thing". although her clients remain grateful. Meanwhile, David Horiuchi of Amazon. com described the character as "tough, witty, and refreshingly free of any saucy teen attitude". UGO described Kim as a "cheery and upbeat" character who "settles for nothing less than excellence". Despite her high school popularity, Kim is neither stuck up nor superficial, often incorporating cheerleading routines into battle,

Kim's unconventional relationship with her inept, unpopular best friend Ron ultimately uncovers the best in both characters. Their relationship heavily explores the friend zone, since Kim and Ron remain platonic friends for the majority of the series, although their romantic interests in each other is hinted at throughout. Kim was among several fictional characters who debuted towards the end of the girl power and third wave feminism eras. As an animated series, Kim Possible employed a diverse cast of strong female characters, namely Kim and Shego. Like Kim herself, her grandmother Nana Possible also fought crime when she was young, from whom Kim is believed to have inherited her abilities. According to Metacritic, Kim's "fiery" red hair symbolizes "her attitude that is best summed up by the phrase, 'I can do anything.'" until eventually being surpassed by Phineas and Ferb. The series comprised 84 episodes, with Kim starring in each one. Kim also made an appearance in the Lilo & Stitch: The Series crossover episode "Rufus". A stop motion version of Kim appeared in an episode of Robot Chicken where she is trapped by Kim Jong un while trying to stop North Korean nuclear launch codes, and they both mock their names by making puns out of them. She is voiced by Rachael MacFarlane in the episode. Also, the title name in the skit is called "Mission Kim Possible", a parody and allusion of Kim Possible and Mission: Impossible, a successful action spy movie franchise that served as a follow up to the 1966 and 1988 TV shows. Sadie Stanley portrayed Kim Possible in Disney Channel's live action adaptation television film of the animated series, aired on February 15, 2019. Kim, Ron and Rufus have had non speaking cameos in the 2022 animated series Chibiverse.

In 2009, a theme park attraction entitled the Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure premiered at Walt Disney World's Epcot. Upon arrival, visitors were allowed to partake in an alternate reality game (ARG) inspired by the television series in which they entered into the world of Kim Possible and ventured on a "high tech scavenger hunt" in a simulated country of their choice. The attraction closed down in 2012 and was replaced by Agent P's World Showcase Adventure, another scavenger hunt like attraction inspired by the Phineas and Ferb series.

Response towards Kim has been very positive, with critics commonly praising her as a positive role model to whom young viewers can relate. Jacqueline Cutler of the Sun Sentinel hailed the character as "as close to a role model as an animated cheerleader trying to save the world can be". Rob Owen of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette joked that, despite dressing like singer Britney Spears, Kim shares "the same insecurities as all adolescents". Tracey McLoone of PopMatters believes the show's "merit lies primarily in [its] heroine", The Sunday Mail's Shuhaidah Saharani touted Kim Possible "Disney Channel's favourite femme fatale". Reviewing Kim Possible: So the Drama, the film originally intended to end the series, Amazon. com's David Horiuchi cited the character among the main reasons why the show will be missed. Several reviewers, such as Betsy Wallace of Common Sense Media, also compared Kim to television action heroines who preceded her, namely Buffy Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Sydney Bristow from Alias, as well as the titular Powerpuff Girls. Horiuchi described Kim as "An Alias type heroine for the tween age set" whose "school girl awkwardness can prove appealing to grown up kids as well", whereas McLoone appreciated that Kim is seemingly more confident than her contemporaries. In a 2019 retrospective, Variety's Mekeisha Madden Toby wrote that the series "connected with its audience because it portrayed a strong but fashion forward young woman who fought crime and got good grades". Paste's Alexis Gunderson crowned Kim the year 2000's "favorite red headed teen action heroine". The character has also been well received by feminist critics, Writing for the feminist website Refinery29, Claire Fahey described Kim as "a feminist icon for the millennial generation". Courtney Thompson of Body+Soul claimed Kim was "many women’s first feminist role model before we even recognised ourselves, or her, as feminist". Calling her a "cartoon idol", Kadeen Griffiths of Bustle lauded Kim as an "amazingly feminist" character who "taught girls that it was okay to overachieve" and "worrying about boys didn't make you any less of a hero". Rebecca C. Hains of Salem State College cited Kim among several "strong powerful girl [television] heroes" responsible for "breaking the mold" during the early 2000s. Since her debut, Kim has been a popular character among both female and male fans of the show. UGO ranked Kim 59th on the website's list of the 75 "hottest" animated characters, crowning her the "Disney Channel queen". Also writing for Bustle, Sarah Freymiller called it "refreshing to see a girl decked out in functional black and army green attire" for much of the series.
