Codename: Kids Next Door, also known as simply Kids Next Door or Codename: KND, is an American animated television series created by Tom Warburton (credited as "Mr. Warburton") for Cartoon Network. It is the 13th of the network's Cartoon Cartoons. The series follows the adventures of a group of five 10-year-old children who operate from a high-tech treehouse. They fight against adult and teen villains with advanced 2×4 technology. Their code names are Numbuhs 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. They are Sector V, part of a global organization called the Kids Next Door.
The show revolves around a group of five 10-year old kids (later retconned to be varying ages), using codenames Numbers 1 through 5, who are the main home operatives of what is known as Sector V, which is part of a worldwide espionage-style organization called the Kids Next Door. Their mission is to fight crimes against kids (such as homework and flossing), many of which are willingly committed by "evil" adults, senior citizens, teenagers, and other children. Numbuh 1 is the bald British boy Nigel Uno, leader of Sector V. Numbuh 2 is the perky and pun-cracking American boy Hoagie Gilligan, Jr.. Numbuh 3 is the cheerful Asian girl Kuki Sanban. Numbuh 4 is the bossy Australian boy Wallabee Beatles. Numbuh 5 is the smart African-American girl Abigail Lincoln.
