I was surprised they let a character looking like THAT in a kid's show! I wasn't sure what to think of him though until I saw Where There's a Wilt There's a Way, where I think I finally started to like him.

Well, I wasn't really "weirded out" when I first saw him, but I DID notice the whole arm and eye thing and the first thing that went through my mind was something more like "what on earth could have happened to him to make him lose an arm and an eye?" Of course, we know what that was now, but at the time it was definitely interesting to speculate about it. I remember when all of the Wilt fans would speculate on what happened. It was crazy, but fun! XD

About them developing Wilt's character further, I do like the idea of him being more assertive toward Bloo and telling him "no" for a change. It's really great that he's starting to stand up for himself and loosen up a bit now and I hope the Foster's crew continues to do this with his character in the future.
