Dexter's Laboratory
Dexter, a brilliant boy with glasses, hides a secret laboratory behind a bookcase in his bedroom. He accesses the lab using spoken passwords or hidden switches on his bookshelf. Despite his intelligence, Dexter often fails to achieve his goals due to his overexcitement and carelessness. Dexter keeps his lab hidden from his oblivious parents, who are simply referred to as Mom and Dad. His hyperactive, kind-hearted, older sister, Dee Dee, loves playing recklessly in the lab, destroying Dexter's inventions. Although she seems dim-witted, Dee Dee, who is also a talented ballet dancer, can outsmart her brother and even offer him helpful advice. Dexter, while annoyed by his intrusive sister, feels a reluctant affection for her and will defend her if she is in danger.
