Danny Phantom has had it coming for a while. In season 2, episode 17 of Champion Casters, Michael and Joe go ghost and talk about one of their favorite zillenial shows, Danny Phantom. Imagine a world where "The MCU" doesn't exist and instead superhero shows had to be completely original--only nodding to existence of other heroes. Danny Phantom stands apart in this time because the concept is very simple: rip off Spider-Man, but make it about ghosts. The show succeeds in a lot of ways, but it isn't perfect. Michael and Joe use a couple of episodes to frame their conversation about what makes Danny Phantom work.
