I still want, first and foremost, a Frankie action figure/plush/whatever... yes, I'd even get a Barbie. :-[ :P

As much as I love Frankie, I don't think I would get a toy of her. :(

Don't get me wrong. I LOVE toys! I've been trying to get my old transformer toy's back off ebay.
|
I picked up some excellent Foster's stuff there recently. They've got some pretty good merchandise available, although none of it is specifically about Frankie. I just keep watching, waiting to see what comes along.
|
I will definitely buy a Frankie figure or doll or plushie, my concern was just not getting a purse or something with her picture on it. I have a large ass collection of toys myself and I don't mind getting figures, dolls, or stuffed toys.
I think Frankie would look better on a plushie then a barbie, it's just easier for me to picture her that way and by god it would be SO cute. I love getting toys of things but I won't like go totally out of my way. Like if Burger King releases mini Foster's toys, I won't spend my money on crappy food to get crappier little toys when the bigger and better ones will be out sooner or later and will look better too. Frankie plushie here I come! |
The Burger King toys weren't too bad. There was no Frankie toy, which annoyed me, but the wind-up Mr. Herriman was almost worth the two days of gastrointestinal distress that followed. ;)

I just saw "World Wide Wabbit" today, and I have to say that Frankie looked SO cute with that cap on backwards!:D

That's one of the great things about Frankie: She can make anything look good! I don't even like it when people wear hats backwards.8D
|
"I'm punk rock" t-shirts
that's what we need. |
I'll pass on those. I don't like punkrock.8D

I could handle a shirt like that on Frankie. Like I said: She can make anything look good.8D
|
That for sure. I like her in green lately for some reason.
(Gets inspiration, fires up Sims 2 program...) ;D |
Yeah. My favorite outfit she has is her everyday one. You know: the skirt, t-shirt and green sweater.:D

How about a "Frankie Says Relax..." shirt, quoting Bloo's pop culture reference from Who Let the Dogs In? |
I'm not into that kind of music so I didan't catch that joke before. And yes. A Frankie say's shirt would be heaven.:D
|
My T-Shirt Idea: Frankie standing with an innocent smile in her trademark hoody and skirt, with the words "She's so nice..." on the front...
I'll let you guess what's on the back. No, guess. ;) |
On the back it would have the pic of you're avatar and "So cute when frustrated" on it?8D
|
Erm... I was thinking more along the lines of what Frankie likes to wear on her dates, and what Bloo thinks of her...
But now that you mention it, the "So Cute When Frustrated" with an angry Frankie would make a great separate t-shirt. :D |

Close enough? :frankiesmile: |
That's pretty cool! Nice work.:D
|
ah, Frankie goes to Hollywood humor...
even I don't really get it. |
I just saw "Imposters", and I have to say that it was a great episode. It had so many priceles Frankie momants, and despite the awful day she had, she learns that she isant invisivable. Yes, she missed out on the day she had planned, and probobly lost a year or two of her life due to stress. But she found out the she isant taken for granted by the imaginary friends. I thought it was a great episode.:D
|
*runs for the bomb shelter*
The "frankie says relax" shirt is great, cassini! |
:macwor:
This cannot end well. |
I don't get it. Is he being sarcastic or something? I thought it was cool.
|
No, I wasn't. The thing is that for the most part, or at least from what I have heard from every single person who has mentioned anything about Frankie or this episode in general, has stated that they absolutely freaking hate it.
I strongly despise it myself because despite how "happy" the outcome may have been, this was a straight up hell hole for Frankie and it was just one miserable slap in the face for her, scene after scene. This was just tearing her apart from start to finish. No one really likes or appreciates how Goofball so carelessly tor into Frankie and just purposely caused her grief. |
Agreed. Though I dunno if he was referring to you or me, For me at leat, there were parts that viewed alone were funny... But the cumulative effect was simply frankie playing cinderella with no prince at the end.
|
I was refering to Kzinisistzerg. Why wouls he brace himself for ridicule if he was comenting on Cassini's pic? Anyway, Imposters WAS a good episode. Yes, it was a hard time for Frankie. But I think the outcome was much better for her then if she got to go to that concert. (Her face when she saw the others come back from that same concert was pricelesly funny8D ) She learned that the imaginary friends in the house appreciate her and Goofball DID kinda apologise to her in the end. He said she took good care of him, despite her suspistions. And as bad a day as she was haveing, it wasan't so bad that you couldant laugh about it.(Not at her, but her plight) Everybody has REALLY bad day's. That's waht makes the episode so funny. And to top it off-Frankie was so cute in that rubber nose!:D
|
I could sympathise because i've had days almost exactly like that... and it usually makes me mad enough to murder someone. And that's why I don't find it as funny.
My comment might not have made much sense, but i was referring to your post with the bomb shelter. Also, it's 'she'. ; ) |

Putting someone in a humouros situation is all well and good, making the outcome of said situation humourous, now that's another issue. Just because you put someone in a situation that could be funny doesn't exactly mean it will be funny. It mostly relies on the type of humor you are trying to implicate.
Maybe it's because I'm a die hard Frankie fan and she's sweet as chocolate ice cream, but I don't see the humor in putting her through hours worth of verbal and physical hell all because of some asshole who is purposely taking advantage of your'e good nature. Sympathy for this comes to mind more then humor. It's usually funny when the person (by nature) is an ass or rude or has done something worthy of such a back lashing, or if the gags are more physical and three stooges like. But this episode's humor was just making Frankie miserable, and having everyone in the house verbally tear her down a peg or two. And I know all too well of people's intentions being misread, but I personally dislike any form of character bashing, especially if it makes you feel sorry for the person being bashed, which was supposed to be the comedic part here. I felt the same way for Mac for "I only have Surprise for you". Granted though, that episode had comedic elements outside of bashing Mac, such as Mac going commando crazy and Eduardo being the only one not in on it. But again, the end result was still nothing more then a slap in the face to Mac. It also doesn't help the fact that Frankie is quite underappreciated in the show. |
I'm not so sure I agree that they were "just trying to be funny". Torturing Frankie is funny when done right, but I'm sorry, but I just don't see what's so funny about a premise in which she gets torn apart from start-to-finish with absolutely no redemption aside from a worthless apology at the very end, at the hands of a complete jerk of a guest character(Who inexplicably gets away with it). The nature in which she got abused was so callously severe that I have no choice but to believe that they DELIBERATELY wanted to shock and aggravate viewers.
My fingers remain crossed that future Frankie episodes will be more like "Setting A President" than "Imposter's". |

I agree 100%. It was pure torture, nothing more. I will never watch that episode again. I just can't bear to see her treated like that. It really tears me up inside. :'(
