Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

As promised....  another post about Cartoon Network!  Brock, you've suggested Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends this time.  This series ran from 2004-2009, in prime time for young Carroll boys....  and Brock has been able to see episodes recently via Comcast "On Demand".

What's it all about???  Well, it's about imaginary friends who were created by kids and then abandoned when their creators lost interest in them.  They live at Madame Foster's home.  (Do/did either of you have imaginary friend.....?  I don't think so....)

The Foster's series characters are wonderful.  A few we really like:
  • Bloo - Brock's favorite is Bloo, because he always gets into trouble.  Per Wikipedia, we've learned that his full name is Blooregard Q. Kazoo....  Who knew??  Bloo (see right below) was created by Mac, a friend who still visits him regularly at the home.
  • Eduardo - Brock also likes Eduardo, who is a large and scary-looking.  Appearances are deceiving, however, since he's actually quite timid and gets very upset when things go wrong.  
  • Frankie - I can so relate with Frankie, Madame Foster's granddaughter.  She's in charge of running the entire place!!  Shopping, cooking, cleaning, and trying (with some difficulty) to keep everything in order.  She does get stressed out sometimes - I wonder why ??

I have also enjoyed Mr. Herriman, a lop-eared, British rabbit who it turns out is Madame Foster's imaginary friend.  He is very strict about house rules, and often punishes Bloo for misbehaving.  Well, Brock and Sasha.....  for some fond memories, you can watch this video of the Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends series theme low:
