Goo - Page 9 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Voxxyn · 10-31-2006, 03:11 AM

Goo is nowhere to be seen in "Bloo's the Boss", which will officially debut this Friday. "Make-Believe It Or Not" is confirmed to be Goo's next major role. I don't know about "Emancipation Complication" or "Good Wilt Hunting", but I wouldn't be surprised if she makes an appearance in the latter, as it's a special and might have special appearances by notable characters outside the main ones(I know Goo is extremely close to becoming a main character herself due to her many recent appearances, but still...).

I really like Goo myself--but if she shows up in "EC" and proceeds to rescue the house from Lil' Lincoln's evil plot instead of Mac and Frankie, I won't be very happy.

Goo's apperance in Good Wilt Hunting would make for an awesome visual gag,
if we see her show up at the Imaginary Friend/Creator reunion picnic literally surrounded by the hundred upon hundreds of the imaginary friends she created.

Of course, that depends on how many are left- she's like an obessive Girl Scout cookie seller on speed if you ask me.

Well, it depends if the picnic is only for the friends currently living at Foster's, which I'm guessing it is.

But, hey- the movie didn't premiere yet.

I agree wholeheartedly. I adore Goo, but there needs to be a limit to her, and that's one of the things that really irked me at the end of "The Big Cheese". While I love Goo, there is no reason for her to ever eclipse the originals of the show. While I wouldn't mind seeing her in 4-5 episodes a season, the best number to monitor her at would probably be 2-3 (preferably 2) so she doesn't verge on annoying the people who dislike her too badly and they start losing viewers.

Why is it a problem or Goo to have "shining moments?" It seems to me, if she had more "shining moments," people would like her more.

If she saved the day instead of just being bossy, people would be probably be more open to her.

True, true. I would like her better if she wasn't so bossy all the time, but then again, take bossy out of Goo and what you have left isn't really Goo.

Oh, I'm not saying she shouldn't have shining moments, but if you just let her be a deus ex machina like she was in "The Big Cheese", you're going to end up offending your long time viewers no matter HOW MUCH they like Goo if they're fans of her. I'd like to see Goo have a shining moment now and then, but I'd also like it to happen logically and not just because "Hey, here I am! We need to do THIS!" with no rhyme or reason.

Okay cool, I understand now.

There is chemistry between her and the Foster's regulars. They just haven't shown much of it. The best example of it (in my opinion) is "Infernal Slumber."

Voxxyn · 11-03-2006, 07:19 AM

It's not that I don't want Goo to have shining moments. It's that her recent appearances have overshadowed and even somewhat disrespected the characters that have been around since the beginning.

I'm never going to understand why Louise couldn't have been used instead of Goo at the end of "The Big Cheese"; I mean, she CREATED Cheese in the first place. And as much as I love Japanese Bloo, I REALLY don't like how Goo is powerful enough to create copies of the other characters(even if not entirely perfect) when they're missing like in "Bus the Two of Us".

About Goo being bossy: I do like that they've added a less-savory side to her personality. But I hate how she's repeatedly tormented Eduardo. I have no problem if she's being bossy to Frankie or Wilt, since these two are very mature and strong people who have put up with infinitely worse. But Eduardo is too innocent and vulnerable for such harassment to be considered funny by anyone outside of Ed-haters.

And about Goo saving the day: if there's a SEPARATE episode in which she's the protagonist and must save the house from some kind of threat, that's cool with me. In fact, "Make-Believe It Or Not" seems like it will be exactly that--which will debut the week after "Emancipation Complication". THAT is why I'll be displeased if she takes the spotlight in "EC" as well; Mac and Frankie(which are touted as the protagonists by the CN.com summary) should be the stars in that episode.

In other words, you guys say that she should compliment the original characters instead of taking over and overshadowing them. I agree whole-heartedly.
