[edit] Plot

The Replacements follows the adventures of two kids named Todd and Riley. One day while cleaning up their orphanage (as it defines in the theme song) they find a comic book with an ad by a company named Fleemco. The ad states that for only $1.98 any person will get access to 'the replacements', people that replace current adults in the life of whomever needs or wants it. Todd and Riley get new parents from Fleemco. Their father is Dick Daring, a world famous stuntman, and their mother is Agent K, a British super-spy.
