101 Reasons Why We Love Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends! - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Foster's Geek 287 · 04-24-2008, 06:21 PM

There are so many loveable characters that it's hard to pick a favorite
It exceeds the number of episodes it should have by two seasons-- a new record, I believe
There's a whole new world in every episode
Background characters are just as loveable as main ones
We can have a good episode, inside or outside the house
There are 6 seasons, 3 TV movies, 2 specials, 76 episodes, and an uncountable number of shorts
30-second shorts are almost as funny as 30-minute episodes

Keep the list going!

8. Wholesome humor, hilarious word play, and Mr. Herriman's accent
9. Great character depth with excellent voice acting that's full of emotion and soul
10. Finding the joys of everyday occurrences; no need to beat up another monster every episode
11. Superb artwork, backdrops, and use of sound effects
12. The wacky, high-spirited theme song
13. Portrays the ups and downs of friendship in an entertaining manner, rarely condescending
14. Did I mention Frankie?

...This thread is *reallly* iffy, as we don't allow list threads or game threads (and these kinds of threads are *almost* games). I guess it's sort of discussion in a way, but if people start listing like, just character names or something like that this will go to Spam.

because of the touching moments which really bring out the emotion of the moment, even if its a cartoon. including
15. House of Bloo's - scene where mac and bloo see the photos of one another.
16. schlock star - when mac, regardless of what horrible things bloo did to him and his band, brings him up to the microphone and lets bloo be the star of the show!! ><

MacXBloo foreverrrrrrr~~~!!

17. Because, for a variety of reasons including characters, themes, humor, and even art, we really like this show, and nobody should try to force us differently.

18.) It's a source of inspiration for a wide variety of fanart and fanfiction, from drawing to the artisan crafts (pottery, etc.), from poetry to parodies.

19.) It's a reminder to stay in touch with your youth, a la Madame Foster and Mac.

I'm sure I'll come up with more eventually.

20.

I like how Foster's stays in the modern age unlike most other cartoons, such as showing items like cell phones, check books and pagers, etc.

21. For catch phrases, and dialogs that we'll quote for the rest of our lives.
22. For resurrecting the kind of two level comedy pioneered by Rocky and Bullwinkle.
23. For characters that are so individual, different, rememberable, special and amazing that people will remember them far beyond when the show is no longer on television.

WiltsAKGirl17 · 06-10-2008, 10:22 AM

24.) For the pop culture references and parodies-- "Store Wars," etc.

25. Cheese will never be the same after the character...
