[edit] Ann vs. Anne

According to kp tv tome, Kim's middle name is Ann, not Anne.

IMDB also agrees Christy Carlson Romano ProveIt 01:03, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vigilante? Uh... don't think so

This character was until recently listed in the "Fictional vigilante" category. And while, technically, she does seem to operate without regard to the law in some respects, she doesn't really qualify. For one thing, unlike every other character there (pretty much), she doesn't take vengeance. She's more "foil this plot, then hand over criminals to the police". I have removed the listing. -- Supermorff 11:18, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Love Interest

Kim Possible's official boyfriend is Senor Senior Jr. (literally Mr. Senior Jr.), and she won't break up with him even in any episode, but she likes Ron Stoppable just for a friend. --Zachkudrna18@yahoo.com

Uhh...Senor Senior Jr. IS NOT Kim's boyfriend!!! A possible love interest is only mentioned in the episode Animal Attraction when it is revealed that Senor Senior Jr. is Kim's soulmate. =D Jumping cheese 06:54, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dave The Barbarian

I barely remember there being a promo like that, but even if it's true, they most likely did that as a joke, just like how Disney "paired" Dave and Lizzie McGuire. --Erased Paper 03:23, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Us at RS.net have decided that this was fake and I have removed it. -- Mukiox

And yet, some idiot put it back in. People like this person are going to kill Wikipedia someday. I'll just delete it again.-- Someguy-021

It is back again but I deleted it. I don't know who keeps putting it back in. -- Rosepuff12 00:42, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grade A student?

I sujest deleting the Grade A sudent part, for the series gave us confirmation that although Kim can manage her time quite well between saving the world and school work, there are many episode and quotes that incidate Kim's a mediun grade student.

In one episode Ron says she is a grade a student, but that's concerning latim and nothing more. In other episodes it is revield to us that Kim doesn't have high grades in any subject(Talent show if I'm not mistaken) and in another Kim is shown not to be able to make an assigment thus he is given a zero, this shows that there are many times when she can't have good grades because of her occupations. There is proof in the series that gives us this, and there is no statement besides the one concernig latim that says A grades. Most likely Kim's grades change from mediun to high and even sometimes low but they are mostly medium. Thorius Maximus 12:33, June 27 2006

In Naked Genius, Kim pulled of an A- in math, even though she had to cram during a mission in the Congo River. I've never seen Kim recieve a grade lower than an A, except in Car Trouble, and that was only Driver's Ed. =) Jumping cheese ^Contact 23:45, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

The Naked Genius one was a dream. --Erased Paper 20:52, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

It is true, it was a dream. In Hidden Talent Ron said that Kim's grades weren't high, and also in the episode when that director makes a movie about Kim and Ron, Kim gets a 0 because she didn't read a book she had to. I think this shows that although Kim is able to get good grades, there are many tiome in which her occupations make it impossible for her to have enough time for school work and she, just like anyone else, needs a considerable amount of time to practice and work on school things. I think that these situations in the series are good examples of this. --Thorius Maximus 14:04, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Whoa, nice research! I guess Kim isn't a grade A student. =) Jumping cheese ^Contact 19:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

The subject of Kim's grades is never mentioned in Hidden Talent. I think that "And the Molerat Will be CGI" scene was meant as a joke and for the sake of the plot. Also, Kim does a lot of after-school activies and such ("Mind Games"), so I'd imagine that Kim did extra credit assignments for Barkin's class(es). --Erased Paper 23:56, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Correct me if I'm wrong but in Hidden talent Ron says something similar to this, Ron: "You're going to let Bonnie win and you don't even have high grades!?" Kim: "I will win against Bonnie and I will reach the high grades, I'm Kim Possible , I can do anything!" Concerning the "And The Molerat Will be CGI", I don't think it is a joke because it content was clear, Kim simply didn't have enough time to read the book. But if I put things your way, then i nthe end Ron's low grades are even a greater joke than the situations when Kim doesn't succeed in school, because they are deliberatly much more comical than Kim's ones. Don't forget that both Kim and Ron have approximately the same free time, it is true that Kim has may extra curricular activities but don't forget that it was deliberably shown(in one episode) that her too many extracurricular activies give her no time for school work and even also for other activities as she was incapapble of doing even a tenth of what she had to do, sometimes Kim's attitude puts her in situations that is simply impossible for her to succeed. My final opinion is that it is clear that Kim is not a grade A student and even has problems with free time and in the end she is sometimes unable to do even a quarter of the things she was supposed to do. Thorius Maximus 17:00 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Hidden Talent: Ron said the high notes, as in singing. --Erased Paper 17:50, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

You sure? Okay, can't argue with you about that, but concerning the free time, there is proof that in many situations she doesn't have enough time to do it all, if not even a portion of what she was supposed to do. Her extracurricular activities amy give her extra credit but the time issue still remains. But, from what the series have shown us, is don't think Kim's grades are always high. Thorius Maximus 14:19 18 July 2006 (UTC)

"You know, I don't get you, K.P. You're a straight 'A' student, and yet you can't grasp the closest path from chem to Latin." I still don't see how this would apply only to her Latin grades. "Straight A student" usually refers to one who gets "A"s in all of her (or his) classes. I think this quote is definitive proof that Kim is indeed a straight "A" student. —OneofThem^(talk)_(contribs) 23:54, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Not always, there are episodes when she doesn't get good grades for instance in car trouble(at the begininng), the episode when they make the movie about Kim and Ron in which it shows that her mission sometimes interviene with her school life, in cooking, etc. What I am trying to say it that to write a statement that she is a grade A student is something incorrect and it's a simplist analysis not to mention absolute, so please don't simplify your opinions. Kim's grade may change from time to time and that quote is simply applied to the moment, but if you want to ignore the entire series and write a biased opinion them be my guest. Thorius Maximus 22:18 23 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but no matter how much you analyze the show, there's no denying the aforementioned quote. At least mention in the article that she's a straight "A" student (instead of grade "A"), or maybe mention that Ron says she's a straight "A" student; then it won't be disputable. —OneofThem^(talk)_(contribs) 17:24, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kim's Age

Is Kim's age static, or dynamic? The screen shot of the title section indicate that Kim is a sophomore in high school, but the series never changed the title section, so Kim might have aged.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jumping cheese (talk • contribs).

Well, Steve Lotor did say that she was going to be 18 in the upcoming Season 4, so it's assumable that each new season advances her age a year. 69.148.77.47 21:42, 11 July 2006 (UTC)Someguy21

Wait a minute. If Kim is 18, does this mean she is going to be a senior in high school, in Season 4? -Rosepuff12 22:02, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, if Kim is 18, then she will be a senior in high school. Would that automatically end the series after season 4? =D Jumping cheese ^Contact 02:50, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Hopefully not. They could always do a spin-off on her and Ron's college years. Someguy-021 18:53, 12 July 2006 (UTC)Someguy-021

[edit] Catholic

Is Kim Catholic?!? She's under the Catholic category. I have never seen any episodes that mentioned that Kim was Catholic (and I've seen them all). =D Jumping cheese ^Contact 02:12, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

It's mentioned she's (as well as all her family are) one in every episode that mentions Ron's a jew DaffyDuck619

It's never mentioned. --Erased Paper 01:40, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

So Kim is not Catholic? I'm kind of confused here. =) Jumping cheese ^Contact 03:15, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Kim IS A Catholic, It IS mentioned (whether it be said, or some sort of action) in every episode that mentions Ron's a jew DaffyDuck619

Are you sure? Is there a specific episode that mentions that Kim is Catholic (no matter how subtle)? =) Jumping cheese ^Contact 22:10, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm absolutely positive that it is never mentioned in any episode that Kim is a Catholic. I myself am Catholic, and I definitely would've remembered something like that (and I've seen every episode countless times). If she's under the Catholic category—I don't see it—then it's probably because Christy Carlson Romano, who does her voice, is Catholic (or at least her article once claimed this). —OneofThem^(talk)_(contribs) 01:25, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Interview

I readded the content: the point stated is very specific, that the creators acknowledge the problem and agree it has to be handled delicately. Since that point also refers to an interview, that interview has to be cited appropriately. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 08:40, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

The thing is that that section already talked about that interview. So, by saying "Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle agree", it's really saying ""Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle agree with Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle". --Erased Paper 20:12, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I'll merge the info together. =) Jumping cheese ^Contact 20:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
