Coco

[FostersFriend]

http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n55/FostersFriend/Coco.png
A crazy and wacky bird who only says one word "coco". Coco was imagined by a girl lost on a island, and imagined Coco by looking at her surroundings e.g. palm trees, coconuts etc. At Foster's home, Coco is a helpful and sometimes even annoying bird, aeroplane, tree thing. She does sometimes seem to get in the way, but hey! thats why we love her. As we have seen aswell there are many sides to Coco, which would be even considered by Mr. Herriman "lady like". Coco is Foster's own wacky creation, who always stands up for her rights, not to mention lay eggs. ;)

Coco is a great character. And shes pretty funny. And even though we don't understand her much. She still makes pretty good sense! ;)

[One Radical Dude]

Coco Co Co Coco Coco Cococo!!!! ;)

Everyone's favorite bird, plant, airplane thing. What would we do without her? :bloogrin

[ch3353-h4xx0rrrr]

We would all die.

Well, Bloo would be dead. And if Bloo was dead, I'm sure Emma would be dead, as well. xD

[LaBlooGirl]

Coco is another favorite and extremely lovable. She can be the strong female character who speaks her mind, boy, you bet she will! LOL (Hm, like the time she said something obviously shocking on how they would be rid of Peanut Butter...)
She seems to be doing so well, despite her somewhat unpredictable sanity, and has a way of cheering others up.

However her No.1 accomplishment was...getting Blooregard Q. Kazoo to say "I'm sorry", and MEAN IT.

Boy, do you have that right! XD She really can be strong on the inside at times, speaking her mind and telling people how she truly feels. That is why she's my second favorite character, after all.

Anyway, Coco seems to be a very complicated and hard to figure out kind of person at first glance, but when you get to know her it's easier to understand who she truly is. To me, she is a straight-forward (for the most part...except for when she's trying to help Wilt out in "Bus the Two of Us", but that was for a good purpose. XP), free-spirited, lovable character that anyone could like. It's said that scientists studied her on the island that she was imagined at and because of this, some people think that that is the reason that Coco is 'insane' at times. Honestly, I don't think they're too far off because that's the only explination that I can come up with (well, except for the fact that she might have been stranded on that island with her creator for so long that it might have driven her crazy as well). But another thing that I noticed is that she seems to be VERY good with kids (Cuckoo for Coco Cards is a perfect example of this) and, just like you said, knows how to cheer people up with her bizarre sense of humor. Also, unlike characters like Eduardo (because of his child-like mind I don't think he can truly comprehend something as deep as romance), I think she's fully capable of feeling romantic feelings for other IFs and that's because of the lamp-shade incident! XD Poor ol' Chick Cluckers. XP

But she really CAN accomplish a lot of things if she can get Bloo (BLOO, of all people!!) to apologise to her. I guess it shows how much Bloo may think of Coco deep inside even though he rarely shows it. ;) Because of this, I think that Coco may have shined some light on the situation, making Bloo realize just how important friendship truly is. It's obvious that that kind of thing is something that she holds very dear to her-if it wasn't for her friends, then I truly think that she WOULD be completely insane.

[scary_dream]

Nice, Chaos. Puts my reply to shame ;)

Coco reminds me of one of those women who at a young age would create clubs that the only rules were "No Boys Allowed!"

She is an alpha-female all the way but with still enough room in her heart to care about her male roommates, and she's a fitting change in a (mostly) male-dominated cast.

[Emma]

We would all die.

Well, Bloo would be dead. And if Bloo was dead, I'm sure Emma would be dead, as well. xD

It's true.

And Coco's awesome. She's such a take charge kinda gal, not to mention she seems to have tons of sway over everyone else. She's the one Wilt goes to for help, she can calm Eduardo down, and she can get Bloo to (honestly) feel bad about something. Not to mention she's sort of a "friendship meter" for character on the show. If you can understand Coco, you're part of the club.

[BlooCheese]

I want to be just like Coco when I grow up.

[koosie]

Scientists eh? I'd be interested to see what that say. I'm convinced she manipulates matter at a subatomic level.

[Chaos Wielder]

Yeah, it's especially funny how she and Goo get so ticked off at Mac for not inviting them to his "party" in "Infernal Slumber" simply because they were girls. XD That could have been the perfect set-up there for Goo and Coco to start an "All Girls" club that didn't allow boys. :P

Yeah, that's true. She has to stay in a room with a bunch of "smelly boys" all the time as Frankie put it in "Room With A Feud" :P But it's obvious that she does care about her friends deeply. She wouldn't have been so upset with Bloo if she didn't. ;)

[Mr. Marshmallow]

There's only one thing that kinda irks me about Coco, I don't hate her because of this but it does pop in my mind when I see her sometimes.

Coco's "plane" arms are useless and she uses her feet in place of them. That's kinda....gross when you think about it. That she touches and picks up everything with her feet. Including foods and stuff.

I know she's designed that way but it's just weird when you think about it considering god knows what germs can come out from that.

[Cell_Phone_guy]

Here's something to ponder: Why did have jobs (i.e. in Store Wars and A Lost Claus) when she just could have laid eggs with money in them (a la My So Called Wife)?

I'm guessing she didn't do that in Store Wars because Bloo would have taken the money and used it to buy the massage chair for Madame Foster himself and not give credit to anyone else.

[Matchsticks]

@Mr. Marshmallow: Maybe she washes her feet a lot? But she has used her plane arms to try flying with Bloo on her in the pilot (and I think she could have, if Bloo wasn't on her)

@Cell_Phone_guy: I think the money egg can only happen if she happens to eat enough money(she ate a puppy and laid it!) or something because think about it. If she just randomally made the money it would be counterfiting (or however you spell it) therefore she would get in trouble.

I wonder how she can lay those eggs in the first place, you can not create something from nothing.

[Cassini90125]

I wonder how she can lay those eggs in the first place, you can not create something from nothing.

Perhaps her eggs function like the transporters on Star Trek; when laid, they beam stuff inside themselves. ;)

That would be seven levels of awesome.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Correct me if I'm wrong but, isn't that EXACTLY how the kids in this show create imaginary friends?

By creating them from nothing?

[Cassini90125]

They're tapping into an unknown energy source somehow.

[Matchsticks]

I think that they unknowingly pick up free flowing particles in the air and compress them into something solid or at the cost of a few elements (periodical) from multiple sources they create an artfical being (a homunculi) or they compress the waves that everything is made out of into something more solid, thus making an IF. Which only goes into the question of do IFs have a soul/spirit if a person belives in that and that is what is causing the legal rights problem for IFs (They do not seem to have a lot because they are considered property)

But now we are getting kinda off topic... *sweatdrops*

So, do you think that Coco's creator will tag along with the scientists or did she completly wash her hands of Coco when the scientists took her? Or maybe Coco was KIDNAPPED from her creator?

[LaBlooGirl]

My own opinion as to why Coco just doesn't lay money is because she wants to earn it herself, which makes any gift more meaningful. Coco may be crazy but she's also one of the most smart and moralistic Imaginaries around.

I'm hoping we do get to see her creator, the scientist will be there, but it's possible the scientist either brings along her creator, or said person just shows up later.

And if this were all real, I want you all to know that I would adopt Coco in a heartbeat. She's not one of my favorite characters for nothing. ;)

[Cell_Phone_guy]

Perhaps we'll see Coco's creator in Good Wilt Hunting.

[Invader Bloo]

We'll see the scientists who studied her, or atleast the wiki says.

[LosDosEduardos]

Sorry to see how quiet this thread was since October 1st, but I believe that Coco is a weird, yet cool, imaginary friend.
Plus, I believe that the scientists who studied Coco are cool, too.
Yet, I could try to figure out why she can only say one word, when all she can do is speak her own language. Still, I'll say she's pretty cool.;)

[Sparky]

Okay I'm wondering something.

If the scientists in GWH are still interested in studying Coco, why did they leave her someplace where she can get adopted and they might not be able to get her back?

I suppose their "main" work might be done and they just used the 5-year picnic as an excuse to slip in some extra studying, but I dunno. It seems like they find her highly fascinating, so it just seems like they ought to have just kept her. *shrug* (And yes I know, if they had kept her, she wouldn't have been in the show, etc. :jk: Lol.)

[CG]

Sure they're bright in one way; but they're not bright in the other way. :P Douglas 'n Mark are just . . . wanting a reason to see Frankie so that's why they dropped her off there? I dunno.

Continuation for the loose!

[Invader Bloo]

Anyone notice how Coco's coco sounded like "We can kill him" when Mac asked what they should do about Peanut Butter in "Room with A Feud"?

[montitech]

yes

Monty:-/

[LosDosEduardos]

Strange. I thought maybe she sounded like "We should trash him." That should probably sound decent enough, although Mac responded, "I think if we did that, we should end up in jail.":P

[Invader Bloo]

Yeah, they'd end up in jail for killing him no death sentence though.:jk: :P
But Coco can say stuff that sounds like words besides the kill thing though, you have to imagine though.

[some guy you dont know]

;) ok so i was on wikipedia, and i stumbled across this, somewhat of a profile for coco. and its in spoiler tags so you dont have to read it. according to the man himself, Craig:

"The idea behind Coco is that she was created by a lonely kid trapped on a desert island. Her design elements are made up of the kids thoughts/surroundings. Her tree head = the palm trees on the island, Her airplane body=the dream of being rescued and nightmare of how the kid ended up on the island, Her red beak=the deflated rubber raft that brought the kid to the island, Her shoeless sunburned feet=all the kid stares at all day, and her name Coco = Coconuts, what the kid lived on. As you can tell I think too much about this stuff."

[taranchula]

You don't really need to spoiler that, since that eaxct description of Coco can be found on the official Foster's TV blog.

[Invader Bloo]

We've known that for ever now.

[The bloo]

Coco is cool sometimes only when she isnt annoying

;)

[Voxxyn]

Despite the "impediment" of only being able to say one word, Coco has a great character and personality, and some very funny moments.

Do you think they'll ever have her say anything other than her own name? ;)

[taranchula]

Do you think they'll ever have her say anything other than her own name? ;)

If you count "dream/fantasy sequences" she already has.*

(*See episode 402: "The Big Picture.")

[antgirl1]

About Coco's Prize in Eggs ability:

I would think that Coco would be able to control what she wants to lay. First she'd think of what should come out of the egg, and not get too distracted, or else it'll be something else. Concentration. XD

She'd be an expert at giving presents with this ability. :D

I think that this, combined with the fact that Coco was "discovered" alone, indicates that her creator may be dead, possibly of starvation on the island.

[Ub3rD4n]

I think if Coco ever does anything strange, it's cause her thought patterns come and go. Most of the time she's relatively normal, yet others (My So Called Wife), she's totally unpredictable. That's why she doesn't just lay herself some money in Store Wars. It probably didn't occur to her at the time.

[Invader Bloo]

Looks like Coco will have a good size role in "Cheese-A Go Go". :D

[ptps]

I was personally very impressed when I first read about coco's design, how she came from being imagined by a stranded kid on an island. It just made so much sense and it fit in such a perfect way. I thought her design was brilliant. :D

I wish she could be used in some other way that didn't involve a language gag, though. Like how she'd "cocococo" something, and the next character would go like "wow, why didn't I think of that?" or "exactly!" without explaining it. It was funny the first few times but now it's just sort of like a way to fill up some of the twenty two minutes in the show. :S Just my opinion.

I think she's kinda really smart. And mother-ish and fun. "My So Called Wife" felt totally out of character for Coco, I think; I know for a fact that she isn't a Cheese/Pokemon hybrid. =_=; So the episode really disappointed me for some reason. (Not to mentioned they reused too many of her "lines" in that show; I caught at least five different "cocococo" lines being reused at least two to four times each. Ah well. ;)

[FeDeReR]

sometimes coco is annoyng but i don't understand what is she saying!

Lol. She isn't the first "Pokemon-esque" character in that regard. Though yeah, there's definitely a huge contrast between the almost completely spaced out Coco of MSCW and Crime After Crime, when she actively attempted to coerce an apology out of Herriman for sending her to her room.

Speaking of which, Coco is at her best when she's totally pissed.

[Lynnie]

I like Coco. I root her girl-power, being the only female star IF. Woo hoo, Coco!! ;)

One of the teeniest most minute things I disliked about "Good Wilt Hunting" is that it didn't give us a look really into Coco's past like it did Ed and of course Wilt. I know it was intentional that we not see much of her past (she's suppose to be a mystery). But, man, I wanted to see the only girl star IF's creator, too! Oh well. I shall live.

[Ub3rD4n]

I agree, Coco is most amusing when riled.

[Soupaflyyy]

I love me some Coco, I really do. She reminds me of this "Voodoo Lady" I met once. She was sassy, yet maternal (she called me things like "baby" and "honey child"), and she wore huge fake eyelashes and had like six-inch(!) long fingernails (which I assume were also fake). Best thing of all? She was a security guard! She was so weird and awesome, but, if you got on her bad side, she'd totally put a hex on you. :wiltshock:

I don't know why, but Coco holds a special place in my heart just because I draw that comparison.

I wish she could be used in some other way that didn't involve a language gag, though. Like how she'd "cocococo" something, and the next character would go like "wow, why didn't I think of that?" or "exactly!" without explaining it. It was funny the first few times but now it's just sort of like a way to fill up some of the twenty two minutes in the show. :S Just my opinion.

Yeah, I agree. (Though, that part in "Crime After Crime" where Mr. Herriman reads her ransom note and cannot figure out who it's from is one of my favorite gags in the whole series. 8D) But I guess when writing for Coco it can be pretty tricky working around the whole "language barrier."

[NeverToo]

Coco of the cooco.

What an amazing sight. I just love the way Coco is. She is so interesting and I always like her eggs and actually I love them. ;)

The eggs contain prices which I like in the shows. I wish she was really alive so she could lay some eggs and hatched them for me so I can have some cool prices.


Rock on to The Great Coco.

"Prices"? Don't you mean prizes, with a "Z"(like Jamez)?

[Scrawffler]

Coco has been my favourite ever since the show started. I do agree that perhaps the language gag gets old at times, although somehow all her moments in House Of Bloo's still make me laugh today, even if we are used to her language now. However, one thing I always respect is that the show doesn't go overboard with characters translating what she says. I think it's quite nice that they let us work it out for ourselves (kinda like Kenny in South Park).

*laughs* I also agree that the ransom note in Crime After Crime was awesome. And in Room With A Feud, I laughed when Coco suggested something in a sinister tone and Mac replied, "I think we'd go to jail if we did that."

I'm hoping Coco does get a good episode about her past someday. Her origin according to Craig McCracken does sound pretty intriguing.

[WestBunny:3]

Coco sure is scary when she's angry. Her eyes seem to say: Revenge...
I don't like how everyone treats Coco like a pet in Mondo Coco. Don't they know what she'll do to them? NO COCO, NOOO!!8D

[Lynnie]

I suppose I can put this here. ;)

Look what I found geo caching yesterday!

http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs419.snc3/25259_1459018234299_1198698954_1320862_6402381_n.j pg

It's Coco!! She's missing her bill and eyes, but this is one of the kids meals gifts from McDonalds five or so years ago. We found a Wilt too a long time ago. My sister kept him. But I kept Coco! I just wish she at least had her bill, she looks weird. :P

When my sister pulled it out of the cache she held it out to me and yelled "Coco!" and I replied with "Cococo co coco, coco coco co!" And one of the girls in our group looked at me strange and laughed "What was that all about??" 8D (I almost said "Shut up. I like Coco, and I'll talk like her if I want.") :clap:

[Sparky]

That's the one where you're supposed to make her features with clay. She looks super-weird like that though.

[Lynnie]

Clay? Ok, I thought there were separate pieces that snapped into place, and stickers you could customize them with even more. Wilt appears to have come from the same kiddie meal. Hmm, I have Play Doh, maybe I can make a bill for her and dry it so it'd be permanent. :bloosmirk:

[Another Castle]

What quirks have we noticed about Miss Coco?
-She sleeps in a nest
-Her eyes blink in a pattern
-Sje can juggle her eggs and give a salute with her foot
-She reads upside-down
-she looks the wrong way when her picture is being taken

[antgirl1]

Coco eats a puppy then lays it. She also eats money and can lay some.

Coco is part Yoshi. ;)
