May 12 is Platypus Day on Disney Channel from 9am-4pm!

This month, Disney Channel celebrates TV’s most popular semi-aquatic mammal on the planet! On May 12, make way for Perry the Platypus on Platypus Day with a line up of Phineas and Ferb episodes from 9am till 4pm, and the premiere of a Perry-rific episode “Perry-The Actor-pus/ Remains of a Platypus”. 

“Perry- The Actor-pus/ Remains of a Platypus”

12noon, with an encore at 3.30pm

In “Perry- The Actor-pus”, the executives of Totally Tools oversee a contest to find the company’s ‘spokesanimal’ and Perry is crowned the winner! However, the victory puts Perry’s secret identity in jeopardy, forcing Major Monogram to appoint Agent S as a temporary replacement. But when Dr. Doofenshmirtz sees his new nemesis is Sergei the Snail, he mistakenly underestimates his new opponent. Meanwhile, Candace has been welcomed into Mandy’s “Stop the Busting” retreat, which aims to teach Candace to control the urge to bust her brothers through positive reinforcement.

In “Remains of the Platypus”, craziness has ensued in Danville and no one has any idea what’s going on. The wackiness unfolds when Phineas and Ferb create Cheese-topia. Doofenshmirtz makes Perry his butler with his Butler-inator and Carl is trapped by Doof’s while in a squirrel costume.
