"Kim Possible" follows the comedic action-adventures of a typical high school girl who, in her spare time, saves the world from evil villains. Along with her best friend Ron Stoppable; his pet Rufus; and their webmaster buddy Wade, who feeds them vital information via a special Kimmunicator device, this girl-next-door turned superhero foils archenemies around the globe. Then it's back to her family and homework.
