'''''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 Onon 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.
