When it comes to animated dynamic duos, Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable are right up there with the best of them. She was the ultra-capable teen spy with a killer roundhouse kick. He was the bumbling, burrito-loving best friend with a heart of gold—and a naked mole rat in his pocket. Together? Comedy gold.
Kim Possible didn’t just deliver action-packed missions and epic villains. It delivered laugh-out-loud moments that still live rent-free in our brains. Whether it was Ron’s fear of monkeys, Kim’s dry comebacks, or the way they balanced each other in perfectly mismatched harmony, their funniest moments didn’t just make the show entertaining—they made it legendary.
Let’s countdown the top 10 funniest Kim and Ron moments that reminded us how saving the world can be totally hilarious.
#1: Ron’s “Naco” Invention
Leave it to Ron Stoppable to accidentally stumble into greatness—especially when food is involved. While Kim was out there saving the world with kung fu kicks and grappling hooks, Ron was busy changing the face of fast food forever with a single invention: the Naco. This cheesy, messy, absurdly genius combination of a nacho and a taco wasn’t just one of the funniest moments on Kim Possible—it was a surprisingly iconic pop culture moment that fans still talk about decades later.
The invention itself happens in the episode “Bueno Nacho,” which already centers on Ron’s part-time job at his favorite fast-food hangout. In classic Ron fashion, he’s totally overwhelmed, completely unqualified, and somehow still full of ideas. Disgusted by the limitations of the menu—and likely just hungry—he decides to stuff nachos into a taco shell. The logic is as questionable as it is brilliant, and when he tastes the result, his eyes go wide. Cue the most dramatic food eureka moment in animated history.
What’s so funny about this isn’t just the invention. It’s how seriously Ron takes it. He treats it like a life achievement. He wants to name it after himself (“The Ron-aco” was considered), pitch it to corporate, and cash in. And it works. The Naco becomes a hit. Sales go through the roof. Ron is promoted to manager, complete with a headset and the ability to push important-looking buttons. And that’s when the real hilarity begins.
Ron running a restaurant is like giving a toddler the keys to a spaceship. Within minutes, he’s short-circuiting soda machines, over-salting fries, and making announcements over the intercom like he’s hosting a rock concert. Employees are ducking for cover. Customers are confused. Rufus, the naked mole rat, is somehow put in charge of quality control. The entire operation teeters on the edge of delicious disaster, and it’s glorious.
Of course, things spiral even further when Ron’s ego starts inflating faster than a deep-fried burrito. He becomes more obsessed with his managerial power than the mission at hand, and Kim has to step in to bring him back down to earth. Their dynamic here is pure comedy gold—Kim being exasperated but oddly impressed, Ron being clueless but somehow successful. It’s the perfect reversal of their usual roles, and it highlights why the show’s humor works so well: they balance each other.
Behind the scenes, the Naco became more than just a one-off joke. Fans of the show loved it so much that it became part of Kim Possible lore. Recipes popped up online. People tried making their own. Some claimed it was ahead of its time, predating the rise of hybrid food trends like the “cronut” or the Taco Bell Doritos Locos Taco. It’s one of the few fictional foods that actually made its way into real-life conversations—and potentially someone’s lunchbox.
And then there’s the final kicker. After all the chaos, after the short-lived fast-food empire, what does Ron do with his employee discount? He buys more nachos. Because of course he does. In a show filled with spy missions, world-ending gadgets, and secret villains, it was a teenage boy and his mutant snack food that gave us one of the funniest, most memorable moments of all.
Ron may not always save the day—but when it comes to the Naco, he totally crushed it.
#2: Kim vs. the Smarty Mart Employee Discount
If there’s one thing Kim Possible has proven time and time again, it’s that she can face anything. Giant robots? Check. Lava pits? Check. Supervillains with weather machines? Check. But when faced with a far more terrifying challenge—retail? Even the world’s top teen hero is no match. In the episode “Job Unfair,” Kim takes a job at Smarty Mart (the show’s hilarious take on big box stores), and what unfolds is not only one of her funniest moments, but a total role reversal that lets Ron shine for once.
It all begins when Kim loses her babysitting job—her main source of income. With college on the horizon and a strong streak of independence, she decides to find new work, landing at the brightly colored, chaos-filled aisles of Smarty Mart. From the moment she puts on the polyester vest, you know this mission is unlike anything she’s faced before. Forget HenchCo. This is way more intense.
Kim, always composed and high achieving, tries to approach retail with the same strategy she uses on missions: organization, precision, confidence. The problem? Nothing about Smarty Mart is organized. Customers are rude, toddlers are sticky, the store is a maze of confusion, and the intercom system. An absolute nightmare. Watching Kim navigate angry shoppers and restocking shelves is hilarious, especially because she’s still treating everything like an international crisis. She karate-chops a misbehaving toy off the shelf. She flips over carts to chase down a shoplifter. She recites product codes like she’s deactivating a bomb.
Meanwhile, Ron—yes, Ron—is absolutely thriving. He already knows Smarty Mart like the back of his hand. This is his kingdom. He slides into the role of retail associate with alarming ease, offering Kim pro-tips and using walkie-talkies like he’s leading a military op. He introduces her to the mysteries of the discount bin, the cult-like appreciation for the Smarty Dog, and most importantly, the power of the employee discount. It’s a world he’s weirdly well-versed in, and it completely flips the usual Kim-and-Ron dynamic on its head.
The funniest moments come when Kim realizes how out of her element she is. For the first time, she’s the one lagging behind. She messes up her first register transaction. She panics during a blue light special. And worst of all? Her manager won’t even let her switch to the sportswear department, which she thinks “better reflects her strengths.” You can practically hear her inner monologue screaming, “Why is this harder than fighting Shego?”
And then there’s Ron—strutting through the store like he owns the place, wearing a Smarty Mart apron like it’s a superhero cape. He uses the intercom system to announce ridiculous store-wide messages (“Attention Smarty Mart Shoppers: Today’s special… free hugs from Ron!”) and tries to convince customers to buy items he personally likes (even if they don’t work). Rufus even gets in on the action, managing a shopping cart full of bargain finds. It’s peak comedy.
What makes this episode and moment so great is that it doesn’t just rely on slapstick. It plays with expectations. We expect Kim to excel at everything—but here, in the fluorescent glow of capitalism, she’s struggling. And we expect Ron to be useless—but in the chaos of Smarty Mart, he becomes king. The role reversal isn’t just funny—it’s brilliant.
And of course, in true Ron fashion, the episode ends with him using his hard-earned employee discount to purchase a mountain of nachos, bizarre gadgets, and a fuzzy bathrobe. Because when you’ve mastered the art of retail, that’s what you do.
#3: The Battle with Drakken’s Moodulator
If there were ever an episode that took the phrase “emotional rollercoaster” and turned it into a full-blown comedy masterpiece, it’s the one where Kim and Shego get zapped by a mood-controlling device—and all Ron can do is try not to get trampled by the fallout. “Emotion Sickness” gave us one of the funniest moments in Kim Possible history and showcased why mood swings and mission time should never, ever mix.
It all starts with one of Dr. Drakken’s typical harebrained schemes. This time, he’s developed a remote-control device called the “Moodulator,” designed to make people overly emotional. As usual, he underestimates the consequences and overestimates his ability to not be a walking disaster. In a perfect storm of cartoon chaos, the Moodulator accidentally zaps Kim and Shego, triggering wildly unpredictable mood swings at the worst possible times.
The moment Kim gets hit by the device; things go from mission-ready to melodramatic in seconds. One minute she’s gushing over the “beauty of nature” with glazed-over eyes, the next she’s sobbing uncontrollably over a sandwich. Before Ron can even blink, she’s full of romantic energy—toward him. Yes, this episode gave us the first official Kim-and-Ron kiss… but only because Kim was under the influence of wild emotional tech. Poor Ron spends half the episode in shock, half in terrified confusion, and every second trying to dodge overly affectionate advances from his best friend turned temporary love-struck maniac.
The brilliance of this episode lies in how completely it flips the characters we know. Kim, usually calm and composed, becomes erratic, clingy, weepy, and then outright aggressive. Watching her rage-flip a vending machine after it eats her dollar is cartoon perfection. But it’s Shego who truly steals the show here. The moment she gets zapped, we’re treated to one of the most jarring (and hilarious) personality shifts in animated villain history. She goes from sarcastic and deadly to sweet, giggly, and doting—all focused-on Dr. Drakken, who cannot deal.
Watching Shego call Drakken “Snookums” and try to cuddle mid-evil plan is gut-busting. He recoils in horror every time she enters the room with hearts in her eyes. The roles reverse instantly—Shego becomes the lovestruck goofball, while Drakken screams in panicked dread. It’s like watching a villainous rom com where neither party consented to the genre shift.
And right in the middle of all of it? Ron, trying to hold things together while dodging chaos from every direction. He’s dodging Kim’s mood swings, trying to deactivate the device, and doing his best not to emotionally implode. His one-liners are pitch-perfect throughout. When Kim bursts into tears over a crooked picture frame and begs Ron to never leave her, he shouts, “I’m not even going anywhere!” The sheer panic in his voice sells it all.
The comedy is fast, the facial expressions are gold, and the animation goes all out with over-the-top reactions. But what makes this moment stick isn’t just the laughs—it’s how it tiptoes into deeper territory. Ron is genuinely rattled. He starts to question whether Kim’s feelings for him—something he’s probably dreamed of—are real. It sets the stage for their future relationship, but it never loses its humor in the process.
And of course, after Kim is de-Moodulated, she doesn’t remember a thing. Leaving Ron, once again, to just quietly scream into the void while Rufus offers him a half-hearted shrug.
Only in Kim Possible could emotional sabotage lead to one of the most hilarious, awkward, and weirdly heartwarming moments in cartoon history. And only Ron could survive it.
#4: Ron’s Worst Nightmare—Monkeys
If Kim Possible had one unshakable rule, it was this: Ron Stoppable and monkeys do not mix. It doesn’t matter how serious the mission is, how high the stakes are, or how determined Ron claims to be—if a monkey shows up, you can expect screaming, flailing, and a complete comedic collapse. Ron’s irrational, over-the-top fear of monkeys isn’t just a running joke—it’s a personality trait. And it reached unforgettable heights in the episode “Monkey Fist Strikes.”
The episode introduces the world to Lord Monkey Fist, a snooty British martial artist obsessed with ancient monkey powers. Naturally, this puts Ron in direct monkey proximity—his own personal horror movie. From the moment Monkey Fist starts summoning ancient simian forces and unleashing mutant monkey ninjas, Ron is completely unhinged. He hides under tables. He tries to run away mid-mission. At one point, he attempts to reason with the monkeys by bribing them with bananas. Spoiler: it doesn’t work.
What’s so funny is how the show leans so hard into this fear. It’s not played as a one-time gag. It becomes part of Ron’s identity. He has a traumatic backstory about getting attacked at the zoo as a kid (he insists it was “a very intelligent monkey with a vendetta”). He flinches at monkey sounds. He once had a recurring dream that involved being stuck in a barrel full of them. Any time a monkey appears—even in a totally unrelated subplot—Ron loses all ability to function.
In “Monkey Fist Strikes,” the comedy is perfectly balanced with action. While Kim is flipping through laser traps and karate-chopping goons, Ron is flailing through the background, narrowly avoiding monkey ninjas and tripping over his own shoelaces. He tries to fight back with a banana peel. He accidentally sets off the security system by slipping on said peel. The slapstick is relentless—and it’s all amplified by the fact that Ron is 100% serious. His fear is genuine, which makes it even funnier.
And then, in classic Kim Possible fashion, something completely unexpected happens. Ron gets accidentally exposed to mystical monkey energy. That’s right—his worst nightmare lives inside him. For a moment, he gains insane martial arts abilities and channels an inner monkey power that lets him fight like a kung fu master. The transformation is absolutely hilarious. His fighting style is chaotic, awkward, and fueled by blind panic—but somehow, it works. He takes down Monkey Fist’s goons in a flurry of squeals, flips, and monkey-fu mayhem.
The irony is so delicious: the kid who feared monkeys becomes the Monkey Master. And of course, being Ron, he completely wastes this opportunity. Instead of embracing his new skills, he freaks out even more. “I’m part monkey now!” he wails, trying to scrub his hands like he just touched raw evil. He spends the rest of the episode in denial, insisting that the monkey energy has “left his body” while clearly still moving with freakish agility.
By the end, his powers fade, but the fear remains. Kim, as always, gives him a half-smile and a “you did good” pep talk, while Ron nervously scans the trees for monkey eyes. The credits roll with Rufus mimicking monkey noises just to mess with him.
What makes this moment so legendary isn’t just the absurdity—it’s that Ron’s fear becomes the key to his (brief) awesomeness. It’s classic Ron Stoppable: terrified, ridiculous, and somehow heroic in the most unexpected way.
#5: Kim’s Date with Disaster (a.k.a. Ron as Her Backup Plan)
Teen romance is never easy. But when you’re also a world-saving secret agent with a mission schedule that rivals most CEOs, it’s practically a war zone. That’s exactly what happens in one of Kim Possible’s most painfully funny episodes: “The Fearless Ferret.” It starts with Kim doing the unthinkable—asking Ron to be her date to the upcoming dance. Not because she’s crushing on him (not yet anyway), but because her options have dried up. And she’d rather go with her best friend than, well, go solo.
To be fair, she tries. She puts herself out there. She flirts—awkwardly. She even tries the subtle locker-hover and hallway linger. But high school boys are, well, high school boys. Kim’s efforts get her nowhere fast. Meanwhile, Ron has absolutely no idea what’s going on. He spends the entire episode chasing his own dream: becoming a full-blown superhero after he accidentally inherits the costume and gadgets of an old washed-up vigilante called “The Fearless Ferret.”
Yes, Ron becomes a superhero—and it’s as chaotic as you think.
While Kim is struggling to navigate the world of dance invitations and social anxiety, Ron is living his best Batman parody life. He throws on a spandex suit, adopts an overly dramatic voice, and starts patrolling the streets like a one-man justice league. His sidekick? Rufus, of course, now outfitted with a miniature cape and goggles. They ride a motorized scooter and call it the “Ferret-Mobile.” They get stuck in traffic. They accidentally bust into the wrong buildings. It’s like someone handed Ron the script to The Dark Knight and a pile of glitter glue.
The juxtaposition of their stories is what makes the episode so hilarious. Kim is stuck in emotional, awkward teen drama, and Ron is playing pretend superhero while somehow accidentally taking down actual criminals. He’s constantly popping up in headlines. The media thinks he’s mysterious and bold. Kim just thinks he’s being extra. And to make things worse, she’s still dateless.
Eventually, Kim’s mom convinces her that going with Ron wouldn’t be the worst idea. He’s sweet, he’s loyal, and most importantly—he’s available. So, Kim makes the call. And Ron? He’s thrilled. He responds with a dramatic, “Your wish is my mission,” still deep in his superhero role, and offers to “arrive by rooftop.” Kim tells him to please just use the door.
What follows is one of the most hilariously awkward dance sequences ever. Ron shows up in a tuxedo that clearly came from the costume rental aisle, still trying to speak in Ferret-speak, and Kim is so done. But as always, something goes wrong, and a minor mission interrupts the night. Kim tries to handle it alone—because it’s Kim—but Ron insists on helping. He ends up slipping, falling, and accidentally taking down the bad guy with a punch that was 98% gravity and 2% luck. Classic.
After all the chaos, they finally get a slow dance—and it’s actually kind of sweet. They’re best friends. They’re awkward. But there’s something there. And this date-that-wasn’t-a-date ends up being one of the most unexpectedly charming and funny character moments of the entire series.
The genius of this episode is that it captures the absolute weirdness of being a teen. The mix of crushes, expectations, friendship, embarrassment, and unexpected wins. It’s Kim being relatable and Ron being absurd—and somehow, it works. Because sometimes your backup plan turns out to be your best one all along.
#6: Ron Goes to Japan—And It’s a Hot Mess
When the Kim Possible crew heads to Japan in the episode “Exchange,” things start off like your typical cultural exchange field trip. New food, new fashion, new schoolmates—what could go wrong? Oh, right. Ron is on the trip. And from the moment the wheels touch down on Japanese soil, it’s one hilarious disaster after another. What makes this one of the funniest Kim and Ron moments ever is how out of his depth Ron is—and how determined he is to fake his way through it.
Let’s start with the basics: Ron is not what you’d call “worldly.” His international knowledge begins and ends with fast food menus and anime references. So, when he and Kim are paired with different host families in Japan, Ron immediately starts spiraling. He panics over language barriers, is terrified by the unfamiliar bathroom gadgets, and assumes every cultural difference is a potential threat to his safety. He even refuses to eat sushi at first because it looks “too raw and suspicious.”
But the real comedy begins when Ron is introduced to his host brother, Hirotaka—a calm, mysterious, incredibly cool martial arts expert who is, of course, very popular with all the girls at school. Including Kim. Watching Ron try to compete with Hirotaka for Kim’s attention (and approval) is like watching a dachshund challenge a samurai to a sword fight. Ron wears wooden sandals backwards. He misinterprets bowing customs. He tries to speak Japanese by adding “-san” to random English words. And worst of all—he starts training in martial arts… with Rufus as his sparring partner.
Everything Ron does in this episode is pure cringe comedy, but it’s also hilariously endearing. He tries so hard to be impressive, only to get outshined by Hirotaka at every turn. Hirotaka can chop wood with his bare hands. Ron trips over a bento box. Hirotaka meditates. Ron falls asleep and snores. It’s painfully obvious Kim is fascinated by their host, and Ron—who’s just beginning to understand his feelings for her—spirals into a jealous, comedic meltdown.
But the most absurd (and funny) moment comes when Ron mistakenly believes Hirotaka is a villain. Why? Because Hirotaka is too cool. Naturally, that makes him suspicious. Ron takes it upon himself to “investigate,” going full undercover agent in the middle of the school, complete with a trench coat, sunglasses, and a poorly drawn mustache. He follows Hirotaka around like a cartoon spy, hiding behind vending machines and crashing through shoji screens like a clumsy ninja. It’s a total disaster—and Kim is absolutely mortified.
The twist? Ron was right… kind of. It turns out there’s actually a ninja plot brewing behind the scenes, and Ron ends up in the middle of a real fight. But in true Ron fashion, he survives not through skill, but by accidentally setting off a chain reaction of chaos that takes the villains down. One falling lantern here, a trip over his own foot there, and boom—the good guys win. Kim gives him a surprised but grateful smile. Ron’s too busy icing his head to notice.
What makes this episode so brilliant is how it amplifies Ron’s usual energy in a totally new setting. He’s the ultimate fish out of water, floundering through customs and etiquette like a bull in a sushi bar. But by the end, he proves what we always knew: he may be awkward, anxious, and completely ridiculous—but he’s also loyal, brave, and somehow always comes through.
So, if you ever go on a school trip to Japan, just remember: don’t put soy sauce in your eyes, do not challenge a martial arts master to a duel, and whatever you do—don’t bring Ron Stoppable.
#7: The Time Ron Was a Millionaire… for a Day
Ron Stoppable is the kind of character who could trip over a penny and somehow end up owning the entire vault it rolled out of. That’s basically what happens in the episode “Ron Millionaire,” where Ron—yes, that Ron—accidentally becomes filthy rich thanks to a little banking error, a burrito craving, and a whole lot of “I have no idea what I’m doing” energy. What follows is one of the funniest, most over-the-top Ron moments in the entire Kim Possible saga.
It all starts when Ron tries to make a simple withdrawal from his modest Bueno Nacho fund. But due to a technical glitch, he discovers that his account has been credited with a mind-blowing amount of money—millions. And instead of alerting the bank or quietly checking with an adult, he immediately goes full Richie Rich mode. New clothes? Check. Custom limo with a taco bar? Obviously. A diamond-studded collar for Rufus? You know it.
The best part is that Ron doesn’t change who he is—he just becomes a more extravagant version of it. He still eats Nacos, but now he does it on a gold-plated beanbag while wearing velvet slippers. He buys absurd things just because he can, like a personal jet ski for the school’s water fountain and a pair of shoes that “shine so bright, they guide aircraft.” His logic? “If I’ve got it, I’m gonna spend it—on cheese-related accessories!”
Kim, of course, is skeptical. She knows Ron too well. She’s watched him blow his allowance on rocket-powered rollerblades and then cry when they melted in the sun. So, when she sees him spending like a cartoon lottery winner, she calls him out. But Ron’s in too deep. He’s busy hiring a valet for his locker and funding a Rufus-themed amusement park. (“Mole Rat Mountain” was doomed from the start, but you’ve got to admire the commitment.)
The real comedy kicks in when Ron tries to “improve” Team Possible’s crime-fighting operation with his wealth. He shows up to missions in a luxury hovercraft instead of their usual jet. He insists on wearing a rhinestone-studded mission suit that glows in the dark. He even tries to bribe villains mid-fight: “Drakken, what if I paid you to… just stop?” Kim, meanwhile, is dodging laser beams and muttering, “This is what I get for letting Ron handle finances.”
Eventually, the truth comes out—Ron wasn’t actually rich. The bank made a mistake, and all the money gets yanked back faster than you can say “financial literacy.” His lavish lifestyle vanishes overnight, and he’s left sitting on a pile of useless gadgets, half-eaten Nacos, and a very disappointed Rufus wearing a tiny monocle.
But in classic Ron style, he doesn’t stay down for long. After all, who needs millions when you’ve got friends who will still talk to you after you tried to pay them to do your homework?
This episode is so memorable because it takes the age-old fantasy of sudden wealth and filters it through Ron’s wonderfully weird brain. Instead of becoming arrogant or power-hungry, he becomes… Ron, but extra. It’s a masterclass in cartoon comedy fueled by impulse buys, misguided generosity, and one very sparkly jacket.
In the end, he may have lost the money, but he gained something far more valuable: a crash course in economics and the eternal gratitude of Rufus for not using the cash to buy him a tutu.
#8: The Time Ron Got a Bad Case of “Senioritis”… in Kindergarten
Only Ron Stoppable could have a full-blown identity crisis because of kindergarten. In the episode “The Ron Factor,” we get a deep dive into Ron’s psyche—and it’s a hysterical mess. What starts as a simple trip down memory lane becomes an absurdly funny unraveling of Ron’s mental stability, all because he discovers something shocking: he might have been a gifted child… once.
It begins with Dr. Director and the agents at Global Justice identifying a mysterious factor that makes Kim so successful. But plot twist—it’s not Kim they’re after. It’s Ron. According to their data, he’s the one with the “Ron Factor,” a rare combination of instinct, luck, and unpredictability that makes him a top-tier asset. Naturally, Kim is completely stunned. The audience is stunned. And Ron? He lets it go straight to his head in 0.2 seconds.
He immediately assumes that his “giftedness” was recognized early in life. So he drags Kim with him to his old preschool and kindergarten to investigate. What follows is a barrage of hilarious flashbacks, each more ridiculous than the last. Tiny Ron wears a cape made of macaroni art. He tries to lead his classmates on a mission to escape naptime. He accidentally starts a fire during show-and-tell. His “gifted behavior”? Mostly chaos, snacks, and squeaky shoes.
Back in the present, Ron’s ego inflates like a bounce house. He starts referring to himself as “The Chosen One.” He starts signing autographs for people who did not ask. He begins writing his own memoirs, starting with the chapter titled “I Was Born This Awesome.” At one point, he attempts to give motivational speeches at the school lunch table while standing on a tray of sloppy joes.
The best part? Kim can’t bring herself to burst his bubble… yet. Watching her try to stay supportive while biting her tongue is comedy gold. She keeps muttering things like, “You’re great, Ron. Just… not for the reasons you think.” Meanwhile, Rufus fully embraces Ron’s new status, wearing tiny sunglasses and riding around on Ron’s shoulder like a miniature life coach.
But the real gem comes when Global Justice tries to test Ron’s “factor.” They put him through spy simulations, obstacle courses, and logic puzzles. The results? A total disaster. He trips over cones, confuses the virtual enemy with the exit sign, and fails the stealth test by eating a bag of chips during a stakeout. Yet somehow—somehow—he still beats the system. His unpredictability works. He accidentally triggers a glitch in their simulation that defeats the entire test room.
This moment perfectly encapsulates what makes Ron such a hilarious and lovable character. He shouldn’t win. He shouldn’t succeed. He does everything wrong. And yet, somehow, things fall into place around him like a Rube Goldberg machine powered by dumb luck and snack crumbs.
Eventually, Kim has to sit him down and explain that the Ron Factor isn’t about genius or talent—it’s about heart, loyalty, and the strange ability to turn any mission into a near-disaster that somehow ends in victory. Ron is humbled… slightly. But not before attempting to trademark the phrase “Ronovation.”
This episode is pure Ron comedy: big energy, big ego, and an even bigger mess that somehow turns out okay. It’s a celebration of the chaos that only Ron Stoppable can bring, and a reminder that sometimes, being “gifted” just means being your wonderfully ridiculous self.
#9: The Naked Mole Rap (a.k.a. Rufus Steals the Show)
There are a lot of reasons Kim Possible became legendary—epic missions, wild villains, hilarious high school drama—but one of the most unexpected fan-favorite elements? A small, pink, hairless rodent named Rufus. And in one of the most absurdly hilarious moments in the entire series, he takes center stage and drops bars in what would become one of Disney Channel’s weirdest, most iconic musical numbers: the Naked Mole Rap.
Let’s set the scene. In the episode “Sink or Swim,” Ron and Rufus end up stranded on a tropical island with Gill—a creepy villain with swamp monster vibes—while on a school field trip. Naturally, things go off the rails fast. But amid all the jungle chases and near-death experiences, there’s one glorious, ridiculous flashback that breaks the tension: Ron and Rufus performing their now-infamous rap.
Ron, proud pet dad that he is, decides it’s time the world appreciates Rufus for the legend he is. So what does he do? He writes a rap about his pet. Not just a jingle. Not a joke. A full-on, performative club track dedicated to a naked mole rat who eats nachos, solves crimes, and wears tiny outfits. And honestly? It slaps.
The rap is everything you’d expect from Ron: chaotic, offbeat, and utterly sincere. He introduces Rufus like a celebrity: “Yo, listen up! Have a story to tell / About a naked mole rat who’s doin’ well.” Then the beat drops, and Ron launches into a surprisingly catchy rhythm, describing Rufus’s skills and quirks with way too much confidence. Meanwhile, Rufus gets in on the performance—posing, dancing, and squeaking along like he’s been waiting his whole life to go platinum.
It’s not just the rap that makes this moment so hilarious—it’s the seriousness with which it’s presented. The lighting. The backup dancers. The crowd cheering. Ron and Rufus are absolutely feeling themselves, and it’s so out of place that it becomes instant comedy gold. And it’s even funnier because it’s so earnest. Ron really believes Rufus is worthy of a musical tribute—and you know what? By the end of the song, you kind of agree.
This wasn’t just a funny aside—it became a full-on cultural moment for the series. Disney Channel even released the rap as a music video between shows, and it became a fan anthem. The song is so iconic that it’s referenced throughout the series and even gets a remix in the live-action Kim Possible movie. Ron never lets anyone forget that his sidekick is a rodent with rhythm.
But behind all the laughs, this moment actually says something sweet about Ron and Rufus’s bond. Ron doesn’t care that people find Rufus weird or gross. To him, Rufus is a hero, a best friend, and a ride-or-die partner on every mission. The Naked Mole Rap is ridiculous, sure—but it’s also an oddly wholesome declaration of love for a tiny animal who’s saved the day more than once.
Only Kim Possible could take a sidekick with no hair and turn him into a pop culture icon. And only Ron could rap about it with enough swagger to make it unforgettable.
#10: The Time Ron Accidentally Switched Bodies with Kim
Nothing screams “classic cartoon chaos” like a body-swap episode—and Kim Possible delivered one of the funniest, most off-the-rails versions in the episode “Mind Games.” When a freak accident involving stolen villain tech causes Kim and Ron to switch bodies, the results are hilariously catastrophic. What unfolds is part Freaky Friday, part spy thriller, and 100% comedy gold.
From the moment the switch happens, both of them freak out. Kim, stuck in Ron’s clumsy, underachieving body, is horrified. Ron, meanwhile, is absolutely thrilled to be in Kim’s body—until he realizes it means he actually has to act responsible and pull off high-level missions without tripping over his own feet. The humor kicks in immediately, as they both try to navigate their day-to-day lives while pretending nothing’s wrong.
Watching Kim try to operate with Ron’s lack of coordination is pure slapstick brilliance. She stumbles through the hallways, knocks over desks, and gets detention for being “weirdly hyper.” She even fails a pop quiz—not because she doesn’t know the answers, but because she forgets how to spell her own name in Ron’s barely legible handwriting. It’s exasperating for her, but absolutely hilarious for us.
Meanwhile, Ron-in-Kim’s-body is having the time of his life. He flaunts his newfound agility by doing unnecessary flips in the hallway. He brags to classmates that he “feels pretty.” He even tries on every outfit in Kim’s closet like he’s auditioning for Project Runway. But then reality hits—he’s expected to stop a supervillain in Kim’s body, and it’s so much harder than he thought.
Watching Ron attempt to fight bad guys with Kim’s strength but his own instincts is total chaos. He’s flailing, overdoing every kick, and shouting things like “Time to get my spy on!” while crashing through windows. Drakken and Shego are so confused they literally stop mid-fight to ask, “Is something wrong with her?” The physical comedy is top-notch, but it’s the voice acting that really sells it—both characters imitate each other with perfect, exaggerated impressions.
The real kicker comes when Kim and Ron have to figure out how to switch back. In the middle of a mission. While being chased. By robots. Their arguing reaches peak hilarious levels: “Why do you talk with your hands so much?!” “Why is your handwriting like chicken scratches?!” “Why does my back hurt in your body?!” The chemistry is flawless, and it only makes you love them more.
Eventually, they manage to reverse the switch, just in time to save the day. They collapse in exhaustion, grateful to be back in their own skin. And while they pretend it never happened; both clearly have a new respect for what the other deals with.
This episode is the perfect finale for our funniest moments list because it showcases everything that makes Kim Possible great: sharp writing, ridiculous scenarios, and the incredible dynamic between Kim and Ron.
