Exactly how I felt at that moment.

Once again, I'm among the last to comment since I've been avoiding this thread like the plague until after I saw it, but that was awesome!! Loved it with a capital "L"!! Some true Frankie appreciation! Even Herriman turned about at the end. I hope it stays that way for the rest of the series. Too bad it came so late though.

"It's an army of zombies!! Incredibly handsome zombies!!" Yeah, that's what we love about Blooregard isn't it? I sure miss that little guy. And the others too, of course. I also loved the sound of him on helium, that was too funny.

Mr. H is Frankie's uncle?? I must have missed that. I'm watching the encore now though. I'll likely catch things I didn't catch the first time around.

I saw the movie not once.....BUT TWICE!!! Like they say, It's nice to see it twice! It's about time they showed something!

Well, when you think about it, and imaginary friend is like a son or daughter (Or a brother/sister, but let's go with son/daughter for a sec here). So, Mr. H is Madame Foster's son. Which means, she's like a brother to Frankie's mother, thusly her uncle.... right?

That seems a little confusing too. Hm. Well, I've given my input on the matter.

Near the beginning, Frankie is talking to herself at one point, about leaving an Imaginary Friend in a box, and she says something along the lines of, "I'd be a rabbit's niece if I..." then after she says it, she sorta pauses as if realizing, "Wait a minute...I AM a rabbit's niece!" I have a suspicion that Mr. Herriman has harbored some degree of jealousy over that, since HE was around first, before her or her father(Madame Foster's biological son, as I believe was revealed by Craig to one of our staff who attended the last Comic-Con, which explains why Frankie carries on the family name), yet he must be wondering just which one of them means more to his creator-her Imaginary Friend, or her granddaughter, and which of them perhaps will eventually become the owner of Foster's Home. AND, at times, Mr. Herriman has a bit of a point about Frankie being "immature"; as much as I like her, I can see(especially after this movie)that she's struggling hard with that transition between becoming a full-fledged adult and still holding onto being a little girl. Her utter delight at indulging in innocent little-girl fantasies(dressing up like a fairy tale princess, riding a unicorn, living in a castle, etc.)is obvious, certainly NOT the sort of fantasies that many grown-up women indulge in, that's for sure! Still, it's kinda nice, and sad, too, in a way, to see someone else struggling through this particular stage in life, one that most of us older gals can still recall, and it makes Frankie so much more real and believable as a character.

That would be me, and he did reveal that and a number of other interesting facts about Frankie as well. It was a very enlightening conversation.

Hi everybody!!!

Craig and I are SOOOOOOOOOO happy everyone seemed to like the special so much!! Especially since it had some road blocks in it's production, it's awesome to see it still turned out well.

The main reason I wanted to chime is was just to clarify a minor controversy-- Bloo says "peeved" not "pissed." Although I admit it really does sound like pissed, so much so that the closed caption-ers got confused. But it was scripted as peeved, and Keith said peeved. We NEVER would've gotten away with pissed, although I guess we kinda did.

Also, I would like to clarify that the writers were myself and Tim McKeon. That awesome Mary Poppins joke was his, along with many others. So credit goes to him as well!!

Have a wonderful T-Day weekend, everyone!!!

I really, really enjoyed this.

I felt it lacked a lot of dialogue from Wilt/Ed/Coco, but I still really liked it.

The two of you wrote a masterpiece, no doubt about it; as I said earlier, best Foster's story ever. Thanks so much, and happy Thanksgiving!

Oh, okay. I thought it might've been "ticked" but in a subtle, VERY subtle way, but no. I guess it is "peeved"

I also liked it when Eduardo was trying to read Frankie's message about Mr. Herriman, only for Wilt to scribble it out before he could finish, saying "WHOA! Ed, you shouldn't be reading that!"
