Overanalysis seems a fair term to tab your theory. I don't see the writers going that far, but I suppose it is certainly possible.

People think she's a fun character, so do I, and if the crew wants her in, they put her in. Every show has some small minor characters. I guess the whole community of the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy would look different without Fred Fredburger, and that the making of Foster's would be hard, if you had to have a house full of Imaginary friends that all have to be major. If you'd only take the major characters of this show, the whole house would be EMPTY. So just live with those minor characters. Good?

Minor characters are fine but like I said before about Goo and even Cheese, characters are only good unless there over abused. Goo and Cheese don't really NEED to be in the show unless the episode is strictly surrounded around them like "Make Believe it or Not" or "The Big Cheese".
Sometimes it's funny like in "Inferanl Slumber" but other times it just seems like a pointless addition like in "The Big Picture" or "Bus the two of us". I don't think it was critically important to get Goo in there. Granted hearing Herriman speak jibberish was funny, but she didn't do much other then that. Goo's latest episode did require her of course but other then that, I think she needs a break from air time just to make it easier to take in. I liked Goo's return here because it was a while since we last saw her, so it wasn't too bad seeing her again. But it'll get bad if they over use her too much.

And, once again, let me compare Foster's to being in a play. Y'see, in muscials and other plays, everyone really, REALLY wants the lead. They don't think that there is any point to having a part unless it's huge. But the chorus and background people MAKE the play. Without them, there's just a big stage and a shorter show (hey, all the chorus numbers, occasional humor ditties, and other stuff would be gone). For example, I'm Kelci (the piano playing chick?) in High School Musical right now. The entire show is about a high school, of course. Not just the six main leads. What high school has six people? You have to make it look realistic. I never said that some of the chorus people don't bug me with their endless whining of, "But I'm so much better than [insert name here]! Why didn't I get the part?" Been there, done that... The chorus days were fun... Just like the chorus people, the minor characters need to be there... Or else there isn't Foster's, or there isn't a High School, or any kind of enviorment you want to show. I always thought being in the chorus was fun, because you could have fun without a lot of pressure. Well, a minor character can add (or take away) from an episode because they don't have to do anything to the plot. The pressure is gone. Of course, Goo doesn't always do that... Take the last episode. I think she's pushing her way towards being a main-esque (ha) character in that she's had to solve the plot of an episode before. I like that happy medium- Goo can be a minor character ("I Only Have Surprise for You"), or a main character ("Make Believe it Or Not"). I think that it's pretty cool that a character can do that. I mean, you couldn't have an episode without Mac, because, y'know, he's Mac- one of the MAIN characters. And now I'm ranting and babbling, so I'll stop now... :bloogrin -Marty

If we should get rid of Goo, then we should also get rid of the several dozen imaginary friends that only serve as background characters. And then Frankie's life would be a lot easier because she only has to care for Bloo, Coco, Wilt, and Eduardo, Foster's probably wouldn't even be needed, and the house would be abandoned. Characters that don't have major roles are still necessary and contribute to the overall caliber of the show. They are important.

I was so happy that Goo wasn't even mentioned in Good Wilt Hunting. I know this sounds mean, but without her in it, I was much more pleased with the outcome. I made a vow that if Goo ended up adopting Wilt in the end, I'd vow to never watch the new episodes, if not for a good laugh. But I couldn't desert dear old FHFIF. Even if I tried. Goo is just really blahblah . She's just like "OohI'msofunnycauseIcantalkfastandknowhowtosolveev eryproblemespeciallywhenitcomestoCheeselikeinthats ecurityepisodeeventhoughLouiseshouldhavebeentheone causeshe'shiscreatoerandshouldknowhimmorethanIdooo ooooo!" just like that.
I'm really sorry to the Goo fans out there. I just had to get it out. |

yeah, she is pretty annoying. but then again, i guess thats how i can relate to her. i just dont talk at 20 miles a minuite. and im pretty sure that if imaginary friends could come real, that id be fosters favorite person.

Awww what? Goo is my favorite character. She has yellow cowboy boots! I wouldn't mind her being in more episodes unless it was completely totally totally pointless.
