Invader ZIM

ActionAdventureAnimationComedyFamilyHorrorMysterySci-Fi11 min per episode

Sent to Earth because his own leaders want him out of the way, Zim is an inept alien invader who still manages to build a secret base, pose as a human schoolkid, and start planning the planet’s downfall. Richard Steven Horvitz voices Zim with a lot of shrill ambition, while Rikki Simons is GIR, his malfunctioning robot sidekick with a mind of his own. The only person who recognizes the threat is Dib (Andy Berman), a young paranormal investigator whose warnings about the alien in class are brushed off by everyone around him.
