'''''Jimmy Two-Shoes''''' (called ''[[Market-Based Title|Jimmy Cool]]'' in some regions) is a Canadian animated television series, focusing on adventure and comedy. It was created by Edward Kay and Sean Scott, and currently airs on Teletoon, Jetix Europe, and [[Disney XD]].


It centers around the exploits of the titular Jimmy Two-Shoes, a boy who is perpetually [[The Pollyanna|happy and optimistic]] despite living in [[A Hell of a Time|Miseryville]], [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|a miserable town]] populated by monsters and demons. Running the town is [[Louis Cypher|Lucius Heinous VII]], the [[The Napoleon|tiny]] CEO of [[Mega Corp|Misery Inc]], which manufactures products designed to make people miserable. Lucius loves keeping people miserable, but Jimmy is out to spread happiness all over town. His two best friends are [[The Hedonist|Beezy]], Lucius' not-so-evil, not-so-intelligent son, and [[Mad Scientist|Heloise]], Lucius' top inventor who harbors a massive crush on Jimmy.

The show follows the [[Two Shorts]] format. In one of the strangest situations ever for how episodes are counted, there are either two or three seasons, depending on what country you live in. In the United States, there are two seasons. However, if you're in Canada, the second half of Season 2 is actually Season 3 to you. The current fate of the series is unknown, even to the creators.

Adding to this is that Lucius VII seems afraid of dying in some episodes. Lucius looks to by in his early twenties despite [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old|being at least four hundred years old]], yet his father looks to be an old man, even in [[Flash Back|flashbacks]]. Since the show takes place in what amounts to [[Hell]], it might be Type V.

Welcome to Miseryville!

Jimmy Two-Shoes (called Jimmy Cool in some regions) is a Canadian animated television series, focusing on adventure and comedy. It was created by Edward Kay and Sean Scott, and currently airs on Teletoon, Jetix Europe, and Disney XD.

It centers around the exploits of the titular Jimmy Two-Shoes, a boy who is perpetually happy and optimistic despite living in Miseryville, a miserable town populated by monsters and demons. Running the town is Lucius Heinous VII, the tiny CEO of Misery Inc, which manufactures products designed to make people miserable. Lucius loves keeping people miserable, but Jimmy is out to spread happiness all over town. His two best friends are Beezy, Lucius' not-so-evil, not-so-intelligent son, and Heloise, Lucius' top inventor who harbors a massive crush on Jimmy.

The show follows the Two Shorts format. In one of the strangest situations ever for how episodes are counted, there are either two or three seasons, depending on what country you live in. In the United States, there are two seasons. However, if you're in Canada, the second half of Season 2 is actually Season 3 to you. The current fate of the series is unknown, even to the creators.

Tropes used in Jimmy Two-Shoes include:

A-E

"I feel bad about it now."

Heloise: We should have been chopped to bits... Hey, Lucius! Your henchmen do shoddy work!
