Madame Foster

[Shelltoon]

I kinda act like her a bit already. Maybe I'm aging really fast and don't know it yet. Well, hopefully when I am as old as her (Whatever her age may be) I'll still have my childhood (Darn parents wanting me to get rid of it!)

[Scrawffler]

Madame Foster's what I would call a 'funky granny'. By that I mean she has the outward appearance of an old dear, but on the inside is a crazy party animal. I think she's a really entertaining character, and while I doubt very many people her age watch the show (you never know though ) I think she would be envied by a lot of senior citizens who look back on their own childhood and wish they could still be as free-spirited and energetic as her.

lol Imagine what the world would be like if everyone her age was actually like her. It'd be so crazy... but also very interesting.

My granma works as a doctor, she's just crazy and likes to take blood samples of me all the time to test her new syringes D: she travels everywhere around the world because her boyfriend is a billionair. She attends any gay gala and pride festival, no matter what country. she's snuck me into r-rated movies ever since I was 8 and she runs two marathons every year through stockholm... she turns 70 next year D:

Wow, you're grandma sounds awesome! OK, back to the topic:

I like Madame Foster (). She has a good heart, and is very sweet. It seems like she cares for all the IF's like they're her kids. The fact that I'm a little kid-like and haven't seen too many episodes put aisde, I feel nothing but love for Madame Foster.

Well, Madame Foster is kinda' wacky! Although she has a good heart, she is really, really, really crazy! But that's just my opinion about that crazy grandma!

[NeverToo]

I just love Madame Foster and besides she's one of the great characters in Foster's Home for Imanginary Friends and I can't believe when she was very very very very young, her Imaginary friend was Mr. Herriman and that makes it a great thing about Madame Foster.


"Go Madame Foster"

Maybe it's just me, but I can imagine Madame Foster going bungee jumping. That doesn't seem too much of a stretch for her for some reason. Agree/disagree?

Ah hahaha!! I can totally picture Madame F bungee jumping! We already know she has a wild side, with Batty Madame. I can picture her trying to talk Mr. H into doing it too, but he can't bring himself to do it. She jumps with an excited howl, and once the springing up and down shallows, she laughs and whoops in an adrenaline rush. And then whenever she remembers it, she whoops again. And of course she never lets him live that down!

While posting in the Frankie thread, I started wondering something. How exactly did Madame F get acquire the title "Madame"? I think we all know what the title usually refers to, and we know just as well that that's not how she got the title. There's also the title "Madame of the house", which is where I see her getting the title. But when do you think she was first referred to that? Mr. H calls her simply "Madame", and I wonder if she had him call her that since her childhood. Or maybe he started calling her that once she started her charity and the IFs in her care are who came up with the title.

Along with those ponderings, I'm also wondering, would her husband perhaps have held the title "Master Foster"? As in "Master of the house"? Makes sense to me, but there's so many possibilities. So many questions and so few answers...

Mr. Herriman might have simply called him "Sir", depending on their relationship. I like to think that they got along well and weren't bitter rivals for Madame Foster's attention as some people have suggested.

On the subject of names, I have to wonder what Madame Foster's maiden name was. Looks like another "Mac's last name" debate is now open.

Well, in French the title "Madam" is basically the equivilent of the English "Mrs". In English, to my understanding, it can simply be used as a term of respect when addressing an older woman. As for Mr. H, I can see him addressing her as a youngster much as he addresses Frankie now - that is, "Miss" followed by whatever her first name happens to be.
