Ozzy & Drix (2002-2004) is an animated spinoff from the movie Osmosis Jones. In this Anthropomorphized Anatomy universe, Ozzy is a white blood cell who recently moved to the "City of Hector" (they were still in Frank at the start of the series but a mosquito bite while fighting a virus transferred them to a new body) and now fights cri—uh, illness—with his partner and friend, a pill named Drix. Each episode covers a topic of health and safety such as cavities, flatulence, or nicotine dependency.The entire series was released to DVD via the Warner Archive in 2017. As of April 2022 it is also available on most digital stores. | |

Ambiguous Situation: The first scene of the pilot is subject to this, as it shows Frank seemingly suffering Aesop Amnesia and reverting back to his unhealthy habits. A common interpretation is that it's an alternate continuity, but there's no confirmation either way. | |

Obstructive Bureaucrat: Parodied in "The Globfather"; When Drix talks to a receptionist about pressing the emergency vomit button (to purge food-poisoning causing bacteria out of the stomach), said receptionist hands him a massive stack of forms, tells him to fill them out, and says in a few weeks they'll send him a notice that he filled them out wrong. | |

Only Sane Woman: Officer Tyson is the only cell in Christine who dislikes Ozzy, even though he came from Hector. (Apparently, the cells in Christine's body are inclined to be favorable to the ones in Hector's because Hector and Christine like each other. It Makes Sense in Context, probably.) | |

Distaff Counterpart: In "An Out-Of-Body Experience (parts 1 and 2)," while in Christine's body, Ozzy finds Drixene, a green-and-yellow female version of Drix, while Cilia Tyson is Ozzy's. Drixene, Clia and Ozzy end up helping each other save Christine when Christine's Chief of Police is bribed to let the Pneumoniac take over Christine. At the end of Part 2, Cilia has been named the new Chief of Police. | |

Mister Seahorse: Subverted. Ozzy initially thinks he's pregnant (and is oddly happy about it too), but it turns out the "baby" is actually a parasitic virus that's been injected into him. Played straight in another episode, where Ozzy creates a twin of himself via, well, osmosis. Unfortunately, said twin is mutated, making him evil. | |

Ungrateful Bastard: Mayor Spryman. Ozzy saves his ass more often then not and the little jerk can't even give a "thank you". He even punished Ozzy, Drix, and Maria for trying to vote for his opponent in the election. He may have done the same for Gluteus for calling him "incompetent". This exchange—immediately after Ozzy saves him from falling down Hector's throat to be dissolved by his stomach—says it all. | |

Compressed Vice | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_431dca9b | comment |
Compressed Vice: Any episode that wasn't about a singular jarring incident (such as a concussion or eating undercooked meat) was treated this way, which occasionally led to bizarre "lessons" that come out of nowhere. Notable examples include Hector getting hooked on junk food for a few weeks, only to completely change tack when he goes for a single jog, and a few days of a nasty attitude when puberty kicks in. | |

Corrupt Politician: Well, Mayor Spryman sometimes acts this way, but not always. And in his defense, one rival candidate that challenged him was far worse, causing Hector to experience growth spurts on purpose and blaming Spryman for it in order to discredit him, the biological equivalent of political fraud. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Hector's best friend Travis. He tends to make fun of Hector's troubles, teases Hector over his weight gain, and has given bad advice on a couple occasions like daring him to eat a 12 bean salad that caused to have a gas attack, or suggested diving off the high dive at the pool to impress Christine. But when Hector is in real trouble or is making terrible life choices that could put him in danger, Travis steps up to the plate. | |

Stock Footage: Some clips from the movie can be seen in the show, and it isn't that hard to see it, especially with Drix being CGI instead of hand-drawn like he is in the show. Anytime a police bulletin is said on the radio, expect to see the stock footage of the two cops in the car listening to it. "Auntie Histamine" features the runny nose sequence. | |

Ruptured Appendix: The subject of the episode "When Nature Calls", though to the show's credit they give Hector a couple other symptoms such as loss of appetite and fever on top of the abdominal pain. Here the appendix is depicted as a roadside motel with swelling attributed to an unscrupulous manager trying to get it filled to the brim. | |

Happy Ending Override | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_53c5f30e | comment |
Happy Ending Override: Osmosis Jones ended with Frank strongly implied to have changed his habits after nearly dying, but the pilot shows he's resumed his prior unhealthy lifestyle (before Ozzy, Drix, and Scarlet Fever are transferred to Hector by a mosquito). That said, this is a more vague example as there are various hints that this show takes place in an alternate continuity, making it ambiguous if there was a happy ending to override. | |

The Smurfette Principle | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_5d753b19 | comment |
The Smurfette Principle: The proportion of characters' gender is justified as most characters are male because Hector is male; during an episode taking place within a girl's body, the reverse is true, and laws, norms, etc. are stereotypically feminine (such as a law against burping). Unfortunately, while the female cells in Hector's body seem to have no problem with it, a male one in Christine hates his job and actually turns against her, taking bribes from an army of pneumonia-causing bacteria that are planning an invasion. | |

| Ozzy & Drix / int_6e1b226c | comment |
Speak Friend and Enter: When the characters hosted a contest for Kids' WB!, the answer was to say what color Ozzy would turn on Saturday. The commercial showed a brief animation of what was purportedly a future mid-episode game showing many Ozzys changing color, so viewers would initially presume that they had to wait until Saturday and watch for that special game. However, several ads showing clips from the new episode had already aired and Ozzy's wording was "What color I turn in the new episode?", so a careful listener could send in the correct answer (pink) having already seen it in the ads! | |

Vile Villain, Saccharine Show | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_7431b974 | comment |
Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Pretty much follows the movie in terms of how dark many of the villains are despite the goofy tone. The worst is likely Strepfinger, a crimelord who seems to be a streptococcal pharyngitis ("strep throat") bacteria, whose Evil Plan involves launching a parasitic plague on the city using Ozzy as a carrier. (And it's almost successful.) Nick O'Teen is another one, being the anthropomorphic embodiment of cigarette addiction. Not to mention his ability to turn cells into his zombie slaves, and the fact similar to Lead he's accompanied by not bacteria or viruses, but deadly chemicals. And he nearly wins, with the heroes failing to stop him and only Hector's own willpower defeating him. | |

Cell Phones Are Useless | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_74f57438 | comment |
Cell Phones Are Useless: Downplayed in "When Nature Calls"; when Travis and company realize that Hector has appendicitis in the middle of a rafting trip, it takes a while for Travis to get enough of a signal to call 911 and get Hector airlifted to a hospital, though fortunately he is successful.note It's federal law in the US for all cell phones to automatically connect to the nearest cell tower when 911 is called, even if the phone doesn't otherwise have service; but depending on where they were, it's not implausible that they were too far from any cell tower to immediately connect. It's also possible Travis didn't know this fact, since he doesn't even attempt to make the call until he gets a signal. | |

Loss of Inhibitions | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_77575053 | comment |
Loss of Inhibitions: Ozzy and Drix are forced to invoke this in "The Globfather" in order to make Hector go on a vomit-inducing carnival ride to vomit out Sal Monella and his gang before they can inflict food poisoning. Attempted again in the two-part episode "An Out of Body Experience", when they need Hector to go back in the pool with Christine so Ozzy (who got stuck in Christine's body) can swim home, but Hector's near-drowing experience left him afraid of swimming. They ultimately fail, but Hector's crush on Christine overrides his fear anyway. Happens in a negative way when Hector hits puberty and his hormones enact a coup, causing Hector to become more reckless. It's literally shown to be his hormones talking. | |

Family-Unfriendly Death: Some villains are dispatched in nasty ways. A good example is Scarlet Fever, the first villain, being flown into the spleen and chopped to bits. We even see his remains afterwards. Another more graphic example is Nick O'Teen's gang Carbon Monoxide, Butane and Tar being killed via electrocution through a busted nerve. The Trichinella spiralis in "The Conqueror Worm" is killed when she ingests a chunk of sodium bicarbonate and explodes from the pressure. Cryo is dispatched via electrocution through a jolt to Hector's spine to induce shivering. | |

No-Sell | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell: In "Lights Out", the fact that Ozzy and Drix aren't native to Hector means they're the only cells that don't get amnesia when Hector gets a concussion, making them the only ones who can fix things before Hector falls asleep. In "Sugar Shock", Drix as a non-cell is unaffected by Hector's sugar rush and consequent crash; half of his job for most of the episode is trying to compensate for Ozzy being half asleep. In "A Cold Day in Hector", Drix is the only one unaffected by the rapidly dropping hypothermic temperature in Hector's body due to not being a cell. This comes in handy when Ozzy begins to succumb to the cold, at one point becoming delirious. A villainous example: The Lead Gang in "Triumph of the Supplements" is completely immune to anything the cells in Hector or Drix can throw at them due to being heavy metals and commercials. That's why they need to get Hector to eat cereal to bring in stronger vitamins and minerals to do the job. | |

Near-Villain Victory | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_ac6ea68c | comment |
Near-Villain Victory: Many episodes have the virus or affliction very nearly succeed at their goal, either killing Hector, or seriously ruining his life. In "Where There's Smoke", Nick O'Teen comes within a hairs breadth of making Hector addicted to cigarettes, with the only thing stopping him being the teenager's own willpower. In "A Cold Day in Hector" Cryo almost succeeds at causing Hector to die of hypothermia. She's only defeated by a pure stroke of luck when Drix manages a massive charge to the spine causing Hector to shiver enough to overcome the cold as she's thrown into the electrical current. The penultimate episode "When Nature Calls" has Billy Bob Bile very nearly cause Hector's appendix to burst via turning it into an overpacked inn for viruses and germs. Hector is only barely saved in the nick of time for an operation before it ruptured and the viruses that would’ve flowed into his bloodstream caused him to get sick or die. | |

Brain with a Manual Control | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_bdae7c4d | comment |
Brain with a Manual Control: Zig-Zagged In the episode "Reflex", Ozzy the white blood cell inadvertently causes his host human Hector to tick off a bully, who challenges him to an after-school fight. Ozzy tries to amend his mistake by sneaking into Hector's brain's manual control room and linking their bodies so that Ozzy can use his martial art skills to control Hector in the fight. However, he gets caught by security in the process, turning it into What the Fu Are You Doing?. The fear center is also seen in "The Globfather"; Drix turns everything off to trick Hector into going on a nausea-inducing carnival ride, so that he vomits up a disease-ridden corn dog. Played With in "Dream Factory"; the subconscious parts that control dreams are revealed to be outside the Mayor's control, but that doesn't stop the main characters from intervening when Hector gets recurring nightmares; it just takes more than simply switching off the dream. Subverted in "An Out of Body Experience Pt. 2", when Drix tries hacking Hector's fear center to undo his fear of swimming. The network turns out to be too difficult for him to decode, but Hector ends up overcoming his fear himself. Subverted again in "Where There's Smoke": Nick O'Teen tries to hijack Hector's pleasure center to make him crave more cigarettes, but Hector, remembering his crush's disapproval of him just trying one, still manages to refuse and walk away. Played With again in "A Cold Day in Hector": Ozzy tries using the brain's manual control room to keep Hector moving, but the hypothermia Hector is suffering renders the controls almost unresponsive; Ozzy describes it as trying to move through snot. When Hector wakes up and sees a rescue team, Drix tries desperately to find a Shout button to get their attention; when the rescue team is about to leave, he just panics and slams a bunch of buttons, causing Hector to loudly burp. (Thankfully this works.) Played straight in "Supplements" when Drix is able to use a controller system to get Hector to eat some cereal. | |

Weaksauce Weakness: Bacteria can't resist anything sweet, and can be lured into a trap or ambush with simple pastry. (Of course, for a very big bacteria, you'd need a pretty big pastry.)

Aesop Amnesia: The spin-off's first episode shows that whatever Frank learned about health didn't stick, and his life seems to have spun out of control. For the brief time we see him, he's eating fried chicken and nachos in a trailer park. A more friendly interpretation would be that the cartoon is set in an Alternate Continuity, where the film's plot didn't happen; note that Shane isn't present, and that Ozzy, despite his accomplishments in the film, mentions being on Snot Patrol in the pilot episode. Even the garage Thrax took refuge in, then burned to the ground, is intact. | |

And added compatibility with the Very Special Episode. Actually not a bad way to show the negative effects of smoking, allergies, etc on the human body. Or at least far more entertaining than most. If you don't push the metaphor too hard, it even makes sense that Ozzy would bring a veteran's knowledge of police work along to benefit the rookies in Hector's body. The immune systems of adults have usually developed a resistance to infections that kids' own defenses haven't yet learned to fight. Or even needed to fight, as evidenced in the pilot episode with Scarlet Fever. | |

Outside-Context Problem | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_cc7fae30 | comment |
Outside-Context Problem: While most of the villains are viruses or bacteria, some decidedly aren't: The Lead Heads aren't virus' or bacteria, they're deadly commercials and heavy metal, so Ozzy and Drix's weapons are useless. Nick O'Teen and his gang are also dangerous chemicals, which make them unique, dangerous and difficult to deal with. Cryo isn't a pathogen in a germ, rather she's more accurately the Anthropomorphic Personification of Hypothermia and cold. This makes her not only far more difficult to defeat, but one of the most powerful enemies in the series. "The Dream Factory" is about Ozzy and Drix trying to deal with a recurring nightmare Hector keeps having after seeing a scary movie. Their foe isn't even technically real and there's no real health Aesop to be had unlike most episodes of the show. | |

Cassandra Truth: This happens to Ozzy a lot, as the other cells in Hector's body have no idea what a lot of the things he's seen back in Frank are. In particular Nick'O Teen, as they're not even able to understand the concept of addiction to smoking. | |

Appetite Equals Health | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_d9de318a | comment |
Appetite Equals Health: Referenced in the episode where Hector gets lead poisoning. When Drix uses a controller to get Hector to eat a bowl of cereal, Hector's mother sees him getting the cereal out and remarks that he must be feeling better since he's getting something to eat. Hector weakly replies "Not really..." Implied in "When Nature Calls", as an early sign of Hector's appendicitis is him not being hungry for any cheese dogs. Given that Hector is normally a Big Eater, this is a definite red flag. | |

Animesque: Even though it was based on an American movie and animated in Taiwan and Korea. This came out during the rise of anime-styled shows, though, so it's possible it could have been an attempt to cash in on them. Hector especially looks animesque. | |

Continuity Snarl: When Ozzy goes outside of Frank's body in the movie to face the Big Bad, he's perfectly capable of surviving more than a few minutes. In the show, going outside of Hector's body causes him to coagulate. Though it's believed Ozzy was covered in Shane's tears which gives him protection from coagulation. | |

Space Whale Aesop | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_e8760868 | comment |
Space Whale Aesop: Since poor health choices are usually a gradual process, they would usually speed up the consequences of Hector's decisions, which frequently led to this trope. The best-known example: Hector spends a few weeks eating too much junk food. Not only does he gain a large amount of weight in that time, but an insane performance artist named Stickety Lipid snatches a few fat cells, bloats them up, and plans to block a major artery. Thankfully, Hector saves his life by going for a single jog. | |

Evil Plan | |
| Ozzy & Drix / int_f2d8e3c2 | comment |
Pretty much follows the movie in terms of how dark many of the villains are despite the goofy tone. The worst is likely Strepfinger, a crimelord who seems to be a streptococcal pharyngitis ("strep throat") bacteria, whose Evil Plan involves launching a parasitic plague on the city using Ozzy as a carrier. (And it's almost successful.) | |

This is representing how Scarlet Fever is more dangerous to kids than adults. When he overrides Hector's pleasure center, Nick O'Teen assumes a larger, more monstrous form. | |
