The former best enemies form a coalition to protest the school uniforms policy& until Sincerity double-crosses Mimi, and she agrees to wear the uniform on the condition that she be allowed to design it.

Production notes

The world is simple, just poorly managed...

A snappy, savvy, family-oriented show about 11-year-old Mimi Morton, problem-solver extraordinaire! Mimi trains her earnest problem-fixing skills on her friends and family.

Mimi's family surname is variously called "Mortin" and "Morton" in studio publicity.

In the first two seasons, episodes each consisted of one cartoon. In the third season, they were each separable into two 11-minute cartoons.
