Dude, That's My Ghost! is 2013 French-British animated television series produced by Gaumont Animation that airs in English on Disney XD in the UK and BBC Kids in Canada.

Plot

For Spencer Wright, a 14-year-old budding filmmaker, Beverly Heights is the ultimate thrill ride. But, being the new kid at a high school populated by Hollywood royalty, he’s an outsider with no ticket in. He's the kind of kid who gets his allowance in cash, not stock options; finding himself amid all this bling and stardom is intimidating. Luckily, he’s got an all-access pass in the form of his best friend, the ghost of pop star Billy Joe Cobra.

Good Qualities

  1. The premise is about Spencer becoming a popular filmmaker in Beverly Heights and becoming a star, which is amazing.
  2. Likable characters such as Spencer Wright, Billy Joe Cobra, Rajeev, Mallory, and many more.
  3. Lots of good episodes, even though it has one season:
    • "Scaring Mallory"
    • "The School of Rockers"
    • "Bioptic Trap"
    • "Sports Hero"
    • "Billy Joe's Last Fan"
    • "Billy Blob"
    • "True Party"
    • "Phantom of the Popera"
    • "For the Birds"
  4. Colorful and appealing animation and art-style that is considered an improvement to Robotboy and Matt's Monsters.
  5. Great voice acting.
  6. The music is also great such as Billy Joe Cobra playing his guitar or other instruments.
  7. There are songs in some episodes which are great as well.
  8. Billy Joe Cobra has amazing powers and techniques such as playing guitar, spitting ectoplasm, etc.
  9. Like Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja and like Packages From Planet X, it captures what a lot of teenagers go through when Spencer reaches high school freshman year.
    • However, it does not rehash the episodes from the said mentioned show and focuses on a different plot.

Bad Qualities

  1. Billy Joe can be unlikable at times.
  2. There are mean spirited moments such as Billy Joe Cobra scaring everyone due to their potential.
  3. A few bad episodes such as "Cuckoo's Nest", "A Trouble With Hairy", and "Reality Showdown".
  4. There are some unlikable characters such as Lolo, Kleet, and Principal Ponzi, but not too many.
  5. The show sadly ended in one season.
  6. The animation, while colorful and appealing, can look quite cheap and mediocre sometimes.

Reception

Dude, That's My Ghost! currently has a 5.7/10 rating on IMDb.[1]
