I do realize that Bloo was a completely different IF in the pilot movie (as well as the first few episodes of season 1). I think the reason for his sudden change was because Craig wanted to create sort of a balance between the character personalities. When you think about the other characters, do any of them seem like the type that would WANT to make mischief and get into trouble? Without Bloo, the gang probably wouldn?t encounter so many problems, and therefore, Foster?s wouldn?t be all that interesting anymore. Most of the episodes are usually developed because of something (usually bad) that Bloo did. Craig probably wanted a character in the show that wasn?t just another goody-two-shoes (not that I'm referring everyone excluding Bloo himself to be one).

Even with Bloo?s big ego and sarcastic personality, he?s not ALWAYS bad. I found him quite funny in ?Squeeze the Day,? and it was easy to see that Bloo would rather be with his friends than continue to be a celebrity in ?Sweet Stench of Success.? The only episode that I really disliked him in was ?Camp Keep a Good Mac Down.? So overall, I think he?s an okay character with flaws like any other.

But hey, that?s just my two cents.

Good point you brought up, Cuckoo. I never thought of that before.
