While many are saddened by "Phineas and Ferb Last Day of Summer" 2015, since it's going to be the farewell episode of one of Disney's most-loved animated characters, there are reports claiming that it may not be really be the last for these adored adventurous duo.
Show creators Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh have finally decided to pull the plug after running 126 episodes, with one original Disney movie.
Apparently, a new spinoff series titled "Mikey Murphy's Law," whics is reportedly slated for 2017 release date could lead for a possible "Phineas and Ferb" crossover.
According to Dan in an interview with Huffington Post, they are actually considering a crossover if the show succeeds.
"And what's really cool is that -- in my mind, anyway -- Mikey Murphy just lives a couple of neighborhoods over from Phineas and Ferb," Dan said of the new show. "And given that these two animated series will have a similar sort of look and design... Well, who knows? IfMikey Murphy's Law is successful, maybe a few years further on down the line, we could do a crossover episode where the Mikey Murphy characters get to interact with the Phineas and Ferb characters. I'd love to get the chance to do a show like that."
And while it's not until two years before it hits the TV screens, show creators explained why they decided to end "Phineas and Ferb."
"Look, without naming any names here, we all know that there have been TV shows that overstayed their welcomes, who did themselves a real disservice by hanging in there a season or three too long," said Povenmire in a phone interview. "And we just didn't want that to be the case with 'Phineas and Ferb.' We didn't want our show to be one of those that wore out its welcome."
"We really wanted to go out strong," he added. "Shut down production while people were still fond of the show and its characters."
They also added that they have actually thought of the "Phineas and Ferb The Last Day of Summer" 2015 ending years before it was shown.
"For a couple of years now, we've been thinking about how we should bring 'Phineas and Ferb' to a close," said Povenmire. "And then somebody pitched the idea of the show doing its own version of 'Groundhog Day.' And I thought that that was perfect. Because that's what Phineas and Ferb would do if they could."
Furthermore, Dan and Jeff expressed their utmost gratitude and appreciation to those who have loved the show and who were able to watch "Phineas and Ferb Last Day of Summer" 2015.
"Besides -- in the animation world -- it's just so rare that that a show actually gets to do a finale," he said. "Which is why we feel so honored and privileged that Disney allowed us to do this."
