You forgot "Pushover". XDD

Not to mention "Pure evil" XDDDD

This may be off topic, but I'm an Aquarius!:D Something to do with me, being original, whatever that means.:P

I don't have small, dainty feet either.

He He he, :D

Good start

Monty :-/

Don't forget "colored blue"8D

I agree... according to astrology, my boyfriend and I should be COMPLETELY incompatable (apparently Taurus and Saggitarius don't go together), but we've been happily dating for going on 5 years.

On the current topic, Wilt isn't much of a public speaker 8D

"Welcome lardies. I mean Ladies! Ladies and Gestlemen. Ge-Gentlemen. Sorray, Sarzy, Suka, SHR-"

That would be-a true!

neither am I.
it's kinda like a phobia for me.

It's called "Stage Fright". :D

well,
whatever it's called,
I definitely have it.
it scares me just thinkin' about it.
-shudders-

Yeh I'm the same. Last time I did it I was fine till I noticed everyone was staring at me then I kind of got lost and said 'er' a lot.

I wasn't as bad as poor old Wilt though. Least he's getting better.

omg, my friend had to get up on stage today in front of the whole sophomore class!
I was having a heart attack for her!
and she's worse with stage fright than I am!
-le sigh-
but she got through it.
and without messing anything up.
I'm so proud.
.....
O.o hfs, off topic!
>> I'll shut up now.

I'd kinda hate to be subjected to Wilt's "performance" as MC the year prior to "Hiccy Burp", if it was THAT much worse than the one we DID see, as Mr. H and Madame Foster indicated! I really feel so bad for him, though, knowing how he is about not wanting to disappoint or let anyone down. At least Wilt can enjoy a bit of assurance knowing that his phobia is the most common in the world.

Yeap.....not to brag, but I'm told I'm most like Wilt.8-)

This is probably true. I'm kinda like Mac (having that mix of childishness and maturity), but I'm just not as together as Mac. I'm more like Wilt. Timid, nervous, but still capable of putting on a smile.

Ever since I've watched Fosters, I've tried to be more like him. he is just an awesome role model. And I'm 20.

So think, "What Would Wilt do?"

I wonder how big a role Wilt will have in "Cheese-A Go Go"? Ihope it's Ok size role, Wilt SHOULD have a bigger role now that we have had "Good Wilt Hunting".

I agree. I mean, Good Wilt Hunting has probably earned him hundreds of new fans and if he goes back to having rather small roles in episodes then a lot of viewers probably aren't gonna very happy (me included). After all, I think Wilt's gonna have a really big boost of confidence now, but if the producers keep him stuck to his usual quiet nature then Wilt's developement in Good Wilt Hunting may as well not have been made.

You're right about Good Wilt Hunting garnering a lot more fans for Wilt, and a lot more RESPECT, if nothing else. I have many students, mostly male, who used to hate him, partly because they perceived him as a weak pushover, which is SO not cool with young African-American males these days, who are all about impressing each other with how "hard"(tough)they are, and partly because of his default color, which is red, the symbolic color of the Bloods. In the heart of Crips/Folk Nation territory, that is about as low as it gets. After I convinced them to watch the movie, though, they saw Wilt in a whole new light, and realized that he is about as "hard" as a guy can be! He got their respect, like I said, if nothing else. Wilt is a good example of the old saying, "Still waters run the deepest".

Yes, I agree, Wilt does defenatly sound like a perfect Pisces.
But keep in mind, thoughm, he also has the qualities of Cancer.
My source: wikipedia.

Cancer is the fourth sign of the Zodiac and associated with family and domesticity. Individuals born under this sign are thought to have a kind, emotional, romantic, imaginative, sympathetic, nurturing, and intuitive character, but one which is also prone to changeability, moodiness, hypersensitivity, depression, and clinginess.

He's kind,
emotional,
romantic,
imaginative? (hey, he's imaginary),
sympathetic,
nurturing,
intuitive (well, it fits him).
He's also can be moody (Where There's a Wilt There's a Way),
depressed,
clingy? (he sure doesn't wanna seem to get adopted now does he?).

Yes, Pisces may win, but Cancer could be a runner up? Mabe I'm exited about him possibly being Cancer just because I'm Cancer :).

All those traits fit Wilt pretty darn well, if you think about it. He DOES have quite an imagination himself, to think that Bloo was a ghost, or to create that "Evil Lord Snotzaz Eenie Meanie Baron von McNasty" persona, AND actually get so carried away that he began to believe he WAS the Evil Lord Snotzax for real! He's definately moody, not just as seen in "Where There's a Wilt, There's a Way", but also in "Beat With a Schtick" and Good Wilt Hunting, when he would switch from this upbeat, friendly person to this somber, downcast one within the span of a few minutes. That is, by the way, one of the symptoms of depression. Wilt has just been able to turn that pain inward, inflicting it on himself, rather than to impose upon others with his angst. I don't know if I'd really describe him as "clingy", not in the same vein as Eduardo is, but he's definately very loyal. I have a feeling that his reluctance to be adopted stems more from his guilt and low self-esteem, genuinely believing that he is inferior to the other residents of Foster's and much less deserving of a family than they are, though I used to wonder if he wasn't afraid of being adopted, of what might happen to him if he was. Knowing the truth behind his attitude, though, it still makes sense. Although, in spite of what he told Jordan, it might still have to do with his attachments to some of the residents there at Foster's, so perhaps there is that element of "clinginess" involved. Wilt has been there for so long, it's almost like the only life he's known. He's been there for much longer than most Imaginary Friends ever remain with their creators, so leaving that behind would be pretty rough.

Just a side note, for the comment on Wilt not getting many episodes:

Though it is true that he is only the main character in Where There's a Wilt, There's a Way, and of course Good Wilt Hunting, he shows up fairly prominently in most others compared to Coco, say, or Eduardo, (This isn't just my prejudice is it? Since I like Wilt best, I tend to focus on him whenever he's doing something) Now, Wilt makes just as good a main as a side character, in my opinion, but he's really noticable pretty much WHENEVER he shows up, so I think that may be why he's the focus of so few episodes.

That said, there's plenty of opportunity to base episodes around him, since he's not only a puchover and too nice for his own good, but he's also very talented and freindly. From what I can tell, there's plenty of good episode ideas that can play off of those qualities of his.

Skickleboggle-do-dah...

... Sorry, I just thought we needed to kick this thing back into action...

Soooooooo.........Wilt's an attorney now.........though not a very confident one8D But hey, I don't blame him, who would be confident with Madame Foster going insane in on them?

......yeah, I was just trying to keep the thread going too.......:D

Hey, at least Wilt looks neato in a fancy black tie, neh?

Hah, he reminded me of Billy Joe :D

I love the tie! ^_^ He's also has one of the greatest (excluding Eduardo's stoned banter) lines in that whole episode.

"Objection!"

"Wha-Objection? On what grounds?"

"I.........I don't know, I'm sorry.":(

I did feel really bad for him, you know getting caught up in the insanity that was Cheese a Go-Go, but I had to laugh. It was just to cute!

He DOES look nice in a tie.:) He didn't got much of a role in that episode. Maybe in the next.

I'll be happy if he at least SMILES in the next episode! You don't realize just how much a part of Wilt that smile is, until it's not there anymore. It's like walking into a familiar room, only to find all of the furniture has been stolen, leaving behind just empty space.

pitbulllady

Which pretty much proves he doesn't watch Court TV much. XD

What? Like divorce court? Judge Joe Brown?8D I kid I kid.....He doesn't really seemed prepared for the court battle over the tuna sandwich at all. Poor guy, it probably doesn't help that Jackie and Madame Foster are fighting non-stop. All he can do is try to make her happy:mfoster:

He's obviously not intimidated by Madame Foster, though; he put her in check really quickly in "The Big LeBlooski"-gently, but still with enough authority that you'd have to wonder who was REALLY in charge there, and he didn't seem too ruffled by her yelling at him over his showing off, either. In the latest episode, he picks her up under his arm like a rowdy little dog and clamps his hand over her mouth to keep her from spouting off! I guess that as much as Wilt is greatful to her for providing him with a home, he also knows that she might not be in full command of her "faculties", and like a child, needs someone to step in and take charge of the situation every now and then.

pitbulllady

Ah, Wilt... where to start, where to start...
That guy... I don't know how he can be so happy with such a heavy concience. Sometime's he's like those clown pictures, smiling outside, but ever so sad inside... I bet times like WTAWTAW happen quite a bit, with him finding it just impossible to say no, not wanting to let anyone else down like he did to Jordan.

Makes me wonder if Wilt doesn't scarf down an awful lot of Pepcid AC and Tums, 'cause you KNOW he's either got to have the Mother of All Ulcers, or dangerously high blood pressure.

Maybe THAT'S why he looked so miserable and kept walking all slumped over in "Cheese A Go-Go".

pitbulllady

Seriously, I don't know how our man Wilt does it. He's so nice and kind and everybody around him takes him for granted (well sometimes). If everybody did that to me, i would have probably killed myself.:)
I like it when he stands up for himself like in Room with a feud. GO WILT!!
He looked awesome in his tie, all nice and smart. And i would be exactly the same if i had to represent Madame Foster.

I would die laughing to see Wilt's "Happy place". XD

Seriously, what would it look like? XD

I know Bloo's happy place consists of him to be the most famous, well-known, the most popular and the BEST being alive, not to mention being VERY wealthy...And has many servants to cater to his every need...8-)

And then Eduardo is also easy; it'd be something like based off his drawings from "Drawing Bored". (Minus the interrupting Bloo part) :-/

Coco? I'd think pretty much a mix of EVERYTHING. You know, maybe a forest or something with large flowers, a sparkling pool...etc...;)

But what about Wilt? I have difficulty thinking on that one. All I can come up with is that he's NOT "broken" in HIS happy place. :D

What do YOU think Wilt's happy place would look like?

A lot like the room in "Room with a feud". Ooh! Also, everyone would get along and consider everyone else's feelings! And no tall jokes!

Not being broken and relaxing with Jordan is my guess.

Yeah, NO tall jokes!

He'd probably be back home in Charleston, with his real family, with Jordan still a little kid who depends on him and looks up to him literally and figuratively for everything. There'd be beach music or "Southern Soul" or gospel playing on some old AM transistor radio in the background, and mama serving up home-cooked shrimp-and-grits or fried croaker(that's a fish, not a frog), iced tea, fresh-sliced homegrown tomatoes and hot-from-the-oven pecan pie! There'd be a sea breeze coming in off the Atlantic to cool down the summer heat, little girls doing "Double Dutch" jump rope outside on Meeting Street, "pick up" basketball games on every corner, and after dinner the whole family would plan to stroll on down to the Battery to get some ice cream and sit and talk and high-five with the locals and watch all the tourists go by, and if it was the Fourth of July, they'd be all watching a spectacular fireworks display out in the harbor from Fort Sumter. Wilt would know that he was family, that he'd never be thrown out, not when Mrs. Michaels introduces him as "the baby" of the family to everyone they meet, 10 feet tall or not! He'd still have both arms and both eyes, and everyone would KNOW he was from "The Most Polite City" in the USA!

pitbulllady

HOLY SNOT. That's something no one would think of! That would be such a lovely place to go...if only you could. XD

I've been there many times, actually. It's just a two-hour drive for me. I was there back in March for the Southeastern Studebaker Driver's Club show...took me almost four days to finally digest the last of my meal at Shem Creek, lol! It's a very real place, and if you go there, it won't take you long to figure out where Wilt's polite manner and lovely accent comes from. I bet he still misses the food now and then, which is not meant as a negative reflection on Frankie's culinary style, but there's nothing like South Carolina Low Country cookin'! Wilt probably still sometimes misses the old ladies sitting by the roadside hand-weaving sweet grass baskets to sell, or old men selling fresh shrimp and oysters out of the backs of beat-up pick-up trucks, and afternoons sitting under 400-year-old Live Oaks draped in Spanish Moss down at the Battery, a seaside park, or waking up on Sunday mornings to the chimes of St. Michael's(hey, now THAT's ironic, isn't it?)Church, and walking past buildings studded with huge "earthquake bolts" adorned with pineapples and Palmetto trees. He's probably glad he doesn't have to deal with the hurricanes, the summer heat and humidity, or the mosquitoes where he lives now, though. It's kinda sad, though, that someone of Wilt's background has been banned from the local beach.
pitbulllady

Pretty much explains "Outside The Court". Aside from most things at home, though. :D

Dont forget, lots and lots of potatos.

I dont necessarily think Wilt would go back home to Jordan. He seems very happy where he is. If anything, he would probably like it if Jordan came to live near Fosters where he could visit him AND still be with his friends. Plus, fosters would have a room dedicated to nothing but basketball, playing it on a big screen 24/7. :D
