Or Duchess Now here's a fun little thing to think about: If Frakie decided to make an IF, what do think it would end up like? She obviously doesn't need one, but I like to think how her personality and character would affect the IF's personality and character.
Would it be one that would fill in the (as of now) unexplained parental gap? Would it be a polar opposite of her responsible and caring nature? Or would it simply just be a fried that she could talk to so she could relieve the stresses of her day? All hypothetical, but still fun things to think about regarding our favorite red-head.

I think Frankie would definitely make up a friend that could help her out around the house, that's one thing that she can't really do without and I'd find it hard that she'd pass up any chance to get some help around the house. I'm actually surprised Frankie never put a "help wanted" sign outside.

I think her IF would also be someone who can help deal with the crap the likes of Bloo and Mr. Herriman give her, like someone who can handle serious problems like that and be like a partner to Frankie. Or maybe she might create an IF that would JUST take are of Bloo since he's like a full time job.

Dealing, feeding, and watching Bloo is practically a job in and of itself so she might have someone just keeping watch or Bloo in control. Basically i think Frankie's IF would serve as a personal assistant, or if not sooner or later it would probably end up serving as one anyway.

[Invader Bloo]

I could see Frankie making a Bloo-Sitter friend. Most of the time she's cleaning, which is when Bloo does his schemes/shaningans/hi-jinx/etc...

I hope Frankie gets her own episode this season. I heard people say she co-starred with Cheese again in "Cheese-A-Go-Go". IMO, not really. Neither Cheese nor Frankie were the stars. Bloo was, speaking of Bloo (even though he shares the fave character spot with Frankie in my list) is starting to get on my nerves that he's been the main character on almost every episode thisseason so far. No Mac, no Wilt, no Frankie, no Goo & only 1 Eduardo episode.

Heh. You should see the Frankie that graduated last year

hoooooooooly crap.

Yeah. She was a redhead, too.

I cannot believe this thread has been dormant for almost a month now. This is quite the record indeed.

Anyway, does anyone but me think that Frankie was the braces and glasses type in junior high and high school? I don't know for some reason it just fits.

[Cassini90125]

It's an interesting idea, and I think glasses would look cute on her, but no. If you take a look at the photo album in The Big Picture, when the picture pass through her teenage years there are no indications that she had either braces or glasses, although in the latter case she could certainly have worn contacts for the photo.

-or she could have just taken her glasses off, it's not like you have to see to have a picture taken of you.

As for "If Frankie had an IF": Frankie doesn't have any obvious lacks to her personality. She stands up to Bloo and Mr H herself fairly frequently, so I guess I'd say her IF would be someone a lot like herself.

I dunno... Frankie strikes me as one of the lucky ones who never had to worry about things like braces, glasses or acne. well... except for that deodorant incident that we learned about from Store Wars's commentary.

[Cassini90125]

I still haven't listened to that. Maybe sometime after the Con.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

It's a good informational piece to listen to Cass, it's well worth sitting through the episode and hearing it. Usually I can't physically stand watching a movie or show with people talking through the whole damn thing (unless I'm watching Mystery Science theater 3000).

The only problem is as you reach the end of the commentary, you kind of get Frankie depression as I call it. She gets pretty stressed out by the end of it but like everyone says, it does reveal some behind the scenes information about her. Speaking of school, I wonder if Frankie was popular.

I mean, I wonder if she was lonely most of the time, I don't think she was with what one might call "the cool kids" as in being snobby and dressing in the most expensive outfits etc. I think Frankie would be outside of most "labels" or school stereotypes like Squids, jocks, and nerds etc.

How do you guys think she was in school popularity wise?
