Danny Phantom premiered on Nickelodeon in 2004, created by Butch Hartman, and followed teenager Danny Fenton who becomes half ghost after a lab accident. Its theme song, performed with a catchy rap style hook explaining his origin, became one of the most remembered cartoon openings of the 2000s. Clips of the intro later circulated widely on video and meme pages, where fans use the short sting for nostalgia edits, transformation jokes, and references to going ghost, keeping the show recognisable long after its original run ended in 2007.
