The best-known example in modern American animation is probably Jimmy Neutron, but the show Jimmy is sometimes accused of imitating, Dexter's Laboratory, is also far from the source of the idea. Just as an example, the "Baby Weems" segment of Disney's The Reluctant Dragon came out in 1941 — but that isn't where the character type came from, either. In prose humor, it undoubtedly goes back to antiquity, tho the wildly exaggerated mental ability of Jimmy or Dexter — or Herbert Weems, for that matter — is probably an artifact of the technological age. Jimmy also differs from Dexter in important ways. Jimmy is a more-or-less normal kid (he even has stupid friends) who just happens to be a super-genius; Dexter’s Laboratory (Picture 1).

Exacerbating that situation is his extreme lack of social skills. Also, he talks like the evil genius in an old movie serial, complete with a thick middle-European accent (first supplied by voice actress Christine Cavanaugh, who also did Chuckie in Rugrats and Bunny Rabbot in Sonic the Hedgehog) that couldn't possibly have come from from his home life. That home life included Mom (voiced by Kath Soucie, who has also, among other things, been a villain in Static Shock), Dad (voiced by Jeff Bennett, who also did Johnny Bravo) and especially Dee Dee, the older sister who blighted Dexter's life. Dee Dee was originally voiced by Allison Moore, who has only a few scattered voice credits, but the role was later handled by Kat Cressida, also heard in sequels to Disney's Tarzan. Also part of the home was the Laboratory itself, a vast complex, apparently far larger than the house itself, hidden behind a book case in his bedroom. Dexter’s Laboratory (Picture 1).
