PLOT:
Unqualified and delinquent alien Zim is sent on a (thought to be) hopeless mission to capture a planet called Earth light years away, along with an idiotic and humorous robot.

season 1 -  

Zim gets an annoying best friend and Zim shrinks himself to a microscopic size to get into Dib's body. Zim is worried his robotic parents aren't ready for Parent Teacher Night and Zim and Gir get lost. Zim studies germs and then steals his classmates' internal organs. Zim has to salvage his Voot cruiser after colliding with a bee and crashing. Dib discovers that Zim is vulnerable to plain water. Zim gets a job in fast food and Dib tries to get on TV to tell all about Zim. Zim uses his hypnotic zit to try and get a secret out of Dib. Gir messed with the security features of Zim's house. Also, Zim uses a time machine to attack Dib throughout the past with the most vile of all weapons, rubber piggies. Zim implements his most horrific plan yet, a room with a moose. Also, Zim uses the school's pet hamster to try and destroy the Earth. Zim suspects that a neighbor's baby is spying on him, and he may be right for a change. Gaz is forced to save Dib from Zim so that they can have a family night out. Zim infects Dib with a genetic virus which slowly turns him into bologna. Gaz competes with an annoying, hyperactive child to purchase a hot new video game console. Experimenting with alternate dimensions, Dib and Zim get stuck in a nightmare world on Halloween. Zim, Dib, Gir and Gaz appear on Dib's favorite show, Mysterious Mysteries. Zim tries to destroy the Earth by blowing up Professor Membrane's power generator. Dib must save the Earth with the help from his future self, or so it would seem. Zim becomes obsessed about winning the mystery prize in the school candy drive. Zim must return a belated video to the store or face the wrath of the FBI. Zim discovers that there is no life on Mars and reasons that whatever destroyed its people will be effective in his destruction of Earth. Zim is abducted by some very stupid aliens who mistake him for human. Dib tries to catch the mythical Chickenfoot and expose him as a fraud, in order to rehabilitate the field of paranormal investigations. Zim receives a top-notch Irken weapon by mistake and tries to use it to destroy Dib once and for all. All the children in the school are infested with lice and, ironically, only Zim can help them. Zim thinks the new girl in school, Tak, has a crush on him. He couldn't be more wrong. Dib is given powers beyond human comprehension and Zim tries to discover who threw a muffin at his head. The Tallest tell Zim that they will only grant his request for weaponry after he attains military training. Zim accidentally creates a slowly expanding explosion.

season 2 - 
Despite the fact that they are closer to Earth than ever, The Tallest won't stop by to check out Zim's latest plan. Dib conjures an immortal spirit to help bring an end to Zim. Having planted a camera in Zim's house, Dib monitors Zim, hoping to expose him. When a Girly Ranger selling cookies gets stuck in a hole in Zim's lawn, the result is a media circus. Eager to use Tak's ship, Dib erases her personality and downloads his own. When Dib is forced to see Mr. Dwicky, they decide to team up against Zim. Zim runs for class office so he can rule the world. Dib campaigns for Zim's competitor, Willy. In an attempt to give his sister cool powers, Dib instead makes it that everything Gaz eats tastes like pig. Gaz is not pleased. Angered by Zim's leaving his banishment to join OID II, Zim's former boss on Footcourtia kidnaps him and makes him work at his old job. Zim disguises himself as Santa in order to woo adoring Christmas humans to their doom at the North Pole.

Diane receiving a prestigious fellowship to study in England in the fall is just the latest validation that she indeed is at the top of the pyramid. An army brat, Lloyd recently returned to the US to finish high school, he now living with his single mother sister Constance while their parents remain stationed in Germany. Lloyd, who does kick-boxing as a hobby, has no career aspirations, only knowing that he wants to do something great. His only short-term aspiration is to date Diane, despite the improbability, it generally seen that she is out of his league. With the fellowship in hand, Diane lets her social guard down for the first time in her life in accepting Lloyd's offer of a date, despite she not even knowing who he is. Following that date, Lloyd wants to spend as much time with Diane in the next sixteen weeks before she leaves. Diane, who likes Lloyd and who finds that she now regrets not having that social life with her high school colleagues, has to decide if Lloyd does fit into her life at this crucial time just before she is about to leave. What happens is also dependent on her father, not only in he perhaps seeing any boy, but even more one like Lloyd who does not have the same future outlook as he has for Diane being merely a distraction, but something that happens in his own life. Lloyd figuring out what that something great as something to do may also factor into what happens.
