That's what I thought too

Considering Frankie looks like that a lot in the actual show, I think it's understandable that they drew her that way. I doubt it was originally drawn with the intention of making it into a shirt.

It's awesome though. NEEEEED.

Anyways, here's the actual picture from the blog, which I thankfully saved since now I can't find it anywhere on his blog:



Terrence is off to the side there, but maybe he isn't on the shirt. Darn.

i know everyone has their opinions, but there's no need to jump down everyones throat whenever they say things like that about Frankie. i think the angry frankie is funny too.

fact of the matter is though, frankie usually IS cranky and scrubbing the floors and whatnot. (she's not grumpy ALL of the time, but when she, is she usually has a good reason to be.) i think they're just portraying her accurately as the person she really is, a hardworking lady who spends most of her time cleaning and being unsatisfied with her job.

she is not real, she is a cartoon character, it is a shirt, move on.

anyways. i <3 that shirt, i so wanna buy it. i got the "I <3 :bloogrin" shirt for Christmas and i love it. :]

It comes across as very anti-Frankie and pro-Imposter's/Goofball. Seeing that image only serves as a painful reminder of the terrible things that happened to her in that disgraceful episode.

And you have no idea how hurt I am at being told that she's "just a cartoon". She means a lot to me, and I will NOT stand quiet if I feel she's being mistreated or badly represented.

Looking at the original picture, I wish the other Frankie(the standing pic at the right end) had made it in instead of that current defamatory one.

Thank you for that. Just because someone's a cartoon doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't care about him or her.

Back to the shirt - I can't help wondering how it would look if all of the characters were in color, not just Bloo. Pretty wild, I would think.

Maybe some fans are misinterpreting how the designers of Fosters intended the characters to be preceived. For example, My wife finds Bloo and Mac Super annoying. or For example I can easily see Cheese annoying people (Personally I look at him as a three year old and I think he is great. I see many kids behaving that way)

Then again I could be wrong

This part of your post really confuses me, because that image has nothing to do with Goofball or any part of that episode. It's not the only time she's had to clean.

I don't think you shouldn't care about someone just because they're fictional -- far from it -- but I think the point is that bringing up that one episode whenever you see Frankie portrayed in a way you don't like and saying it's disrespectful is taking it a little far. This is just my opinion, though.

....but I agree it would be awesome if it was all in color. I wonder if they'll do anything with any of the other pictures on his blog....

it's just her scrubbing the floor, and im sure she's done that many MANY times other than in IHFUMEUP. i dont see how it says "down with Frankie, up with Goofball".

but you know, not everyone sees it as a "painful reminder of the terrible things that happened" or whatever. Wendi and I apparently thinks it's funny. That's her opinion, and your opinion is that it's hurtful and anti-Frankie.

i've seen you tell people that it's not funny and stuff like that to someone who states their opinion about Frankie or Goofball, or criticise them for liking Goofball or that episode and i'm sorry to say, that's just really rude. don't get me wrong, you're a cool guy, its just kind of wrong when you criticize people and tell them things like this when they express their opinion about Frankie, Goofball or IHFUMEUP. i think people should be able to express their opinion freely.

LOL PEACE AND LOVE PEACE AND LOVE...:|
