Out of Jimmy's Head (also known as OOJH) is a fun American TV show. It mixes real actors with animated cartoon characters. Cartoon Network said it was their first show of this kind. The series is based on a movie from 2006 called Re-Animated.
The show was made by Cartoon Network Studios and Brookwell McNamara Entertainment. This company also made popular shows like Even Stevens and That's So Raven. Out of Jimmy's Head was created by Tim McKeon and Adam Pava. They also wrote for shows like Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.
The series first aired on Cartoon Network on September 14, 2007. This was around the same time the Re-Animated movie came out on DVD. The show also aired in Canada on Teletoon and in Australia on Boomerang. The last episode in the U.S. was shown on May 29, 2008.
Years later, in 2018, one of the cartoon characters, Golly, made a quick appearance in another Cartoon Network show, OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes. Another character, Dolly, was seen in a special mural for the 20th anniversary of the network.
