The X's is an American animated television series created by Carlos Ramos for Nickelodeon. The series centers on a nuclear family of four highly trained spies who must conceal their identity from the outside world but normally having trouble in doing so. The show consists of a single 20-episode (38 segments) season, running from November 25, 2005, to November 25, 2006. Although it was compared to The Incredibles and Alias, Ramos has stated that the show takes inspiration from the James Bond film series, the 1960s TV series Get Smart, and the 1960s TV series The Avengers.

Premise

The X's work for SUPERIOR, a covert agency sworn to defend Earth from evil. Mr. and Mrs. X have their daughter named Tuesday, their son named Truman, and many gadgets at their disposal. An organization called S.N.A.F.U. (short for Society of Nefarious and Felonious Undertakings) led by the evil Glowface is continually trying to cause trouble for the X's and other SUPERIOR agents through their plans to take over the world.

The series takes place in 2006, according to the episode: "X Takes a Holiday." The location of the show is in a coastal city, likely somewhere in the United States, as Mr. and Mrs. X have used the country's currency in the episodes "Secret Agent Manual," "Wealth vs. Stealth," and "Train Rex."

Development and production

The series was pitched in 2002, with development from 2002 to 2003. Production ran from May 2004 to September 2006.

The end credits of each episode reveal that in production order, the first ten episodes were completed by 2005, while the last ten were completed by 2006.

After production wrapped in late 2006, Carlos Ramos and director Dave Marshall moved on to work on Ni Hao, Kai-Lan's pilot and series. Ramos left Nickelodeon in June 2007 after working as a character designer. CG Supervisor Ernest Chan, along with voice-director, writer, and Dave the Barbarian creator Doug Langdale, moved to providing 3D special effects and writing episodes of El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera respectively.

Broadcast

The series aired on Nickelodeon and premiered in the United States on November 25, 2005, with three back-to-back episodes. The final episode aired on November 25, 2006. As of 2007, "Theater of War" / "Breaking Camp" remain unaired in the United States.

Foreign Broadcast

The X's premiered in multiple countries throughout Latin America in summer of 2006, along with Germany on February 10, 2007, and in South Korea from 2008 to 2009.

Characters

SUPERIOR

• Mr. X (voiced by Patrick Warburton) is the family patriarch, team leader of the X's, and the main protagonist of the series. Mr. X is the expert at hand-to-hand combat and is similar to James Bond and Maxwell Smart. Although a competent spy, he struggles with everyday issues, such as remembering his civilian name, which is Tucker. He is also an excellent cook and very strict and stern. In one episode, his shoe phone self-destructed as a parody of both Get Smart and Mission Impossible. Mr. X is 40 years old and was born in 1966.
• Mrs. X (voiced by Wendie Malick) is the second-in-command and combat specialist of the X's. Mrs. X is fully trained in hand-to-hand combat and martial arts but is a horrible cook. She is a tennis expert. Mrs. X is known for administering savage beatings to Glowface. She's a very caring and protective mother to Tuesday and Truman. Mrs. X is 38 years old and was born in 1968. Her first name is Trudy.
• Tuesday X (voiced by Lynsey Bartilson) is Mr. and Mrs. X's teenage daughter and missions investigator. Tuesday is the most normal of the team, despite her rather extreme punk-rock garb and frequently changing hair-color. She is also the most knowledgeable of "real-world" behavior, which the other family members either misunderstand or ignore outright. She definitely takes after her mother in savagery and fighting skills, but at heart Tuesday is a genuine teenager who wants to do other things besides spy missions with her family. She easily gets annoyed with Truman for making fun of the size of her huge butt, despite that, she behaves like a caring sister like in the episode "You Only Sneeze Twice" when Truman's look-alike robot was about to explode, she became worried and in another episode "From Crusha with Love" she guided Truman with his date by advising him. In the episode "X Takes a Holiday", it's revealed that Tuesday is 16 years old and was born in 1990.
• Truman X (voiced by Jansen Panettiere) is Mr. and Mrs. X's 10-year-old son and technology expert. He was born on November 25, 1996. Truman is the smartest of all the X's. His radiation "experiments" cause so many "meltdowns" that the local Decontamination Squad is on a first-name basis with the "X"s. The enfant terrible of the "X"s, Truman can sometimes be a nuisance and make trouble.
• Rex X (vocal effects provided by Dee Bradley Baker) is Truman's dog he got on his 10th birthday from Sasquatch. Rex was meant to kill Truman with Sasquatch controlling Rex with his mind-controlling roar, but after Truman wouldn't fight him because he thought he would finally have the perfect birthday with him and Truman told about all the good times they had. After those words, Rex broke free from the mind control and also all the other animals. Later, Rex became an honorary member for SUPERIOR. His first appearance was in "Boy's Best Fiend" and has since appeared in other episodes such as "To Err is Truman", "Missing Home", "Train Rex", and "The Haunting of Home Base".
• Home Base (voiced by Stephen Root) describes itself in the title sequence of The X's as "the house they live in", but Home Base is most likely the name for the computerized brain that runs the functions of their house (neither Mr. X nor Mrs. X appear to be competent about household chores, though Mr. X can mow the grass). Home Base serves as advisor, SUPERIOR contact, and mission alert for the X's, and can be contacted from the X-Jet. It also serves as the (somewhat beleaguered) voice of reason in the family. Seen from above, Home Base is shaped like an X. He is visually similar to HAL 9000 from Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Villains

• S.N.A.F.U. is an evil organization that the X's fight. It's acronym is short for Society of Nefarious and Felonious Undertakings.
  • Glowface (voiced by Chris Hardwick) is the X's' archenemy, the leader of S.N.A.F.U., and the main villain of the series. Glowface's head is encased in a glass globe with electrical discharges. He wears a rubber suit and gloves to contain his vast energies. His schemes to get rid of the X's include having Mrs. X break her leg on a coffee table and sending them coupons for family portraits. Like traditional evil villains, Glowface is megalomaniacal, arrogant, psychotic, loudmouthed, and delusional, but he possesses little sophistication or maturity, and believes himself to be much more of a threat than he actually is. Similar to Dr. Evil from Austin Powers, Doctor Claw from Inspector Gadget, Vito Corleone from The Godfather and Ernst Stavro Blofeld from the James Bond series, he also tends to think up idiotic evil schemes like building a giant ray gun in order to bring the Eiffel Tower and Big Ben to life in order for them to wrestle so he can sell tickets. He has very poor teeth and once had to get braces. Glowface is disdainful of the crush his nephew Brandon has on Tuesday. Glowface is also allergic to zucchini and has an unseen way of eating food. The only thing that Glowface and Tucker have in common are building model train sets.
  • Lorenzo Suave (voiced by Tom Kane) is Glowface's second-in-command and butler. Lorenzo seems to be an amalgam of all the villainous second-in-command spy clichés. He is stylishly and impeccably dressed with a mustache, goatee, a scar along one cheek and both an eyepatch and a monocle. Lorenzo is much more intelligent than Glowface and sometimes has to maneuver him into completing his plans when Glowface begins one of his rants. Though he is human, Lorenzo is most likely S.N.A.F.U.'s mirror to Home Base. He becomes miffed when Glowface claims, after he took off his horrid disguise and introduced himself, that no one cares. He along with the S.N.A.F.U. minions are the most commonly appeared S.N.A.F.U. workers of Glowface. One time when Glowface was sick alongside the other S.N.A.F.U. agents, Lorenzo proved to be a better villain than Glowface or any of the others members of S.N.A.F.U. Just as "Glowface" is similar to Dr. Evil, Suave resembles Dr. Evil's Number #2 who actually makes his evil organization work. As Tuesday X is the most normal of the X's, Suave is the most normal of the S.N.A.F.U. members.
  • Sasquatch (voiced by Randy Savage) appears to be an unspecified and scary man-beast that has a roar that can hypnotize or brainwash animals to do his bidding. He is probably the strongest member of S.N.A.F.U. Sasquatch's goal is to return the animals to their rightful place as masters of the planet. He continuously refers to himself in the third person with the catchphrase "Sasquatch is the mightiest of all!" before making another comment.
  • Brandon (voiced by Jason Schwartzman in "The Spy Who Liked Me", David Hornsby in later appearances) is Glowface's nephew. Brandon is a very nice, handsome and even somewhat gallant teenage boy, but unfortunately, he's working with his uncle as an intern for S.N.A.F.U. He has a crush on Tuesday and the two date (even planning dates in the midst of a battle) much to the dismay of both the X's (who don't much like the idea of Tuesday dating in general) and Glowface (who doesn't like the idea of Brandon dating the daughter of his nemesis at all). Mr. and Mrs. X are fairly open-minded about the relationship; on the other hand, Glowface teases Brandon about his new girlfriend whenever possible. He tends to treat his uncle's plans with either disdain or apathy, and never really acts as a villain.
  • The Scream Queens are a duo of Banshee-esqe cheerleaders with a sonic boom screech. They have various cameos throughout the series.
  • The McVampires are a family of hillbilly vampires. They are most likely a parody of the infamous hillbillies the McCoys. The McVampires only appears in "Photo Ops".
  • Bio Harold (voiced by Chris Hardwick) is a buff guy in a hazmat suit. His name seems to be a pun on the term "Bio Hazard." Bio Harold seems to like hanging around in toxic waste dumps to carry out his evil plans as seen in "Homebody." During his brief interaction with Homebase in that episode, he actually seems to be pretty easy-going and possibly a bit dim. Homebase commands Bio Harold to release the toxic waste he was holding by a rope. Bio Harold then simply follows his command without any malicious intent, and Bio Harold seems a bit confused. However, Homebase ends up accidentally getting crushed by the toxic waste anyway. Bio Harold only appears in "Photo Ops" and "Homebody."
  • Missing Link is a dirty guy who looks like a chimpanzee/human hybrid. He seems to have an unhinged and primal demeanor. He only appears in the episode "Photo Ops." Missing Link also seems to be easily amused, as he joins in the other villains laughing at Glowface's photography skills in that episode.
  • Some Old Guy (voiced by Tom Kane) is an old man. He isn't actually a real member of S.N.A.F.U. (he just thought that the photo shop where Glowface tricked the X's was the nickel store). Some Old Guy frequently appears as a joke with the rest of the S.N.A.F.U. agents when Glowface introduces all the S.N.A.F.U. agents present in a battle. His voice volume and dramatic tone increase with each name coming to conclusion with the most dramatic introduction being that of "Some Old Guy". Some Old Guy is also a security gaurd at the art museum shown in "AAIIEE, Robot."
  • The S.N.A.F.U. Minions (all voiced by Carlos Ramos) are Glowface's Minions and foot-soldiers of S.N.A.F.U. They wear uniforms with their heads encased in globes. Their faces are never seen, but the silhouettes of their heads are seen in those globes. They have their birthdays celebrated each month on a day called "Cake Day" for any foot soldiers who have their birthday in that month.
• Copperhead (voiced by Tom Kenny) - Half-man, half-machine. Unlike Glowface, he never stays in one place for long. It was never actually revealed that he is part of S.N.A.F.U. or operating on his own, but he is "the most evil of all evil spies". He has power over magnetism, but he runs on a large battery in his back.

Minor

• Kimla Meeks (voiced by Ashley Johnson) is Tuesday's 1st friend appeared in "A Truman Scorned", "License to Slumber", and "Theater of War". She is a huge fan of science fiction and is also very knowledgeable about sci-fi movies, comics, etc. Kimla also seems to be somewhat naive as she didn't notice Truman's crush on her and that the X's are spies despite her being presented with proof. She appears to have started talking to Tuesday more after their slumber party as they worked together on a school project later in "A Truman Scorned". A running joke throughout the series involves Kimla's "intergalactic chanting."
• Skipper Swenson (voiced by Lindsay Sloane) is Tuesday's 2nd friend appeared in "License to Slumber". Skipper is generally stuck-up and is rude to Tuesday. She doesn't like Tuesday very much and only came to her slumber party because Mrs. X apparently promised to pay her fifty dollars. Skipper is very popular and is also shown to have an interest in beauty and boys.
• Annasthesia Montiho (voiced by Soleil Moon Frye) is Tuesday's 3rd friend appeared in "License to Slumber". She is a goth girl and notices the strange occurrences at Tuesday's slumber party. She also likes to talk about boys.
• Wally (voiced by Tom Kenny) is a friendly neighbor of the X's. He is a devoted father with a wife and child. Wally is very nice to the X's when ever he sees them. While he's suspicious of the X's at times, he never catches on that they are spies. Wally first appeared in "Mr. Fix It", and has made appearances in "Mock Tutors", "Y's Up", and "Live and Let Diaper". Although his name is never mentioned in the series, it is listed as Wally in the credits of episodes that feature him.
• Mrs. Wally (voiced by April Kaplan) is the wife of Wally. Her real name is never mentioned in the series, but it is listed as "Mrs. Wally" in the credits of episodes that feature her. She is a devoted mother and wife, and she has a friendly demeanor. She appears in "Y's Up" and "Live and Let Diaper."
• Wally Jr. (Voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) is the baby of Wally and "Mrs. Wally." He cries a lot, but he is a happy baby. He appears in "Y's Up" and "Live and Let Diaper." Wally Jr. gives the X's quite a bit of trouble when they babysit him. He is a cute baby, so the X's and even Glowface adore him! He is also impressionable as seen in "Live and Let Diaper." Like his parents, his name is never mentioned in the series, but is listed as Wally Jr. in the credits of episodes that feature him. Truman refers to him as simply "Junior."
• Andrea (voiced by Laura Marano) is a violent girl who picks on and beats up Truman due to having a crush on him in "From Crusha with Love." She likes how destructive and obnoxious he is. Andrea frequently punches and puts Truman in a headlock. She is a huge fan of the Pork E. Bacon restaurant that they go on a date at, claiming she has seen their dinner show over 3,000 times. Andrea is also a redhead like Truman.
• Mayor (voiced by April Winchell) is a an unnamed mayor of the city that the X's live in. She is referred to as "Mayor" in the credits of "Accidental Hero," and she only appears in that episode. She recognizes and honors Truman's accidental act of heroism in that episode. The Mayor cares a lot about her public image. In "Accidental Hero," she comments how she wants to shake the hand of the new hero Truman in front of the cameras. She also pushes Mr. X to the side, saying he is blocking her shot in front of those cameras. The Mayor gets upset when she sees that Truman is a troublemaker.
• Mother (voiced by April Winchell)
• Reaper Kid (voiced by Paul Butcher) isn't an actual character, but it's a disguise used by Glowface in "The Haunting of Homebase." Glowface uses a voice disguiser to make his voice sound like a boy.
• Miguel (voiced by Paco Jimenez and later on by Flaco Jiminez)
• Nita (voiced by Andrea Zafra)
• The Y's – The Ys', or "Y's Guys" (wise guys) known by The X's. They are of Indian descent. They are also spies, but better. They are The X's rival family, even though once they gave them a cappuccino maker. The Y's once wanted to force The X's to give up their job as SUPERIOR agents so they could be replaced by them. They too have a computerized brain that runs their house, but is more sophisticated than Home Base. One of their fans is Glowface.
  • Mr. Y (voiced by Ronobir Lahiri) – Similar to Mr. X.
  • Mrs. Y (voiced by Susan Pari) – Similar to Mrs. X.
  • Seven Y (voiced by Soleil Moon Frye) – Similar to Tuesday.
  • Scout Y (voiced by Laura Marano) – Similar to Truman, but is a girl instead of a boy.
• The Z's are of Australian descent. The Z's are destroyed by the Y's. Truman stated that SUPERIOR said that their death was an accident, but the Y's hinted that their death was no mere accident, but was caused by the Y's.

Scrapped episode

As confirmed by Carlos Ramos on Tumblr, he had written an episode in December 2005 titled "Bro Face," which would have been about Glowface's brother coming to visit him. This story would have been a part of episode 18 or 19, given that episode 17 at that time was in production since summer 2005. Nickelodeon scrapped the episode in favor of "a more kid-centric story."

Comics

During the mid-2000s, Nickelodeon featured comics for The X's in Nickelodeon Magazine. It is currently unknown how many comics were produced. However, the last known comic, "In Like Fish" (Written and illustrated by Kyle Baker), was featured in the October 2006 issue.
