Codename: Kids Next Door, also known as Kids Next Door or by its acronym KND, is an American animated television series created by Tom Warburton and produced by Curious Pictures in Santa Monica, California. The series debuted on Cartoon Network on December 6, 2002 and aired its final episode on January 25, 2008. The series came about as the result of a viewer's poll by Cartoon Network.
The main characters of the series are five 10-year-old children who operate from their high-tech tree house. Their mission is to fight "crimes" against children (such as homework and flossing) committed by adults, senior citizens, teenagers, and other evil children. They make up what is known as Sector V of a worldwide organization called the Kids Next Door. The show was also part of Cartoon Network's series, Cartoon Cartoons, and is the 13th Cartoon of the series.
On April 13, 2012, this series returned to Cartoon Network in re-runs on the revived block, "Cartoon Planet".

Famous quotes containing the word kids:
“Children are extraordinarily precious members of society; they are exquisitely alert, sensitive, and conscious of their surroundings; and they are extraordinarily vulnerable to maltreatment or emotional abuse by adults who refuse to give them the profound respect and affection to which they are unconditionally entitled.”
