Ben E Factor - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

I think he needs a thread. For some reason, I think he's quite an amusing character; he even makes a joke at the expense of the show's premise!

Also, do you think he has an 'inspiration' at all? I heard someone say his appearance is based on that of Benjamin Franklin, but I also think that he might have been inspired by the Wizard from the Oz books, as both are 'humbugs' and he even somewhat resembles the John R Neill illustrations.

Any comments?

Wow, that's quite scary!

I didn't really think much of him as a character to be honest, he was just an annoying little man to me. XD

That is one creepy image (of that Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz pic)

Ben -- well, he's nuts, that's all you need to know.

I like him, he was a kooky old man. plus, he had an awesome fashion sense.
