    Duchess


    A spoilt and rude imaginary friend. Duchess is hated by many imaginary friends at Foster's. She bosses everyone around which drives Frankie crazy. She never really treats anyone with respect but herself, and she hates Foster's home, even though she stays there. No one really expects for Duchess to get adopted, but she has been adopted before by a rather od family, who didn't mind Duchess's rude comments. But of course in the end she came back to Foster's. No one really thinks she will change, although they keep hoping for her to be adopted.

    I like that she's one-dimensional! Like a painting
    No man asked this of another not to get the joke...

      I'm not sure why, but she's one of the best. She looks interesting.

      I think she's two-dimensional. But I don't think I've actually seen it. Does it show in "House of Bloo's"?
      Wanna bet?

        I can't remember, but if you watch the episode "Partying is such sweet Soriee" you'll see Duchess is indeed 2-D in that episode.

          I like this character, and I can't really explain a whole lot as to why. Her character design is unique, as she is physically a two-dimensional character. I still think Duchess of Wails is among my favorite episodes, and I certain hope to see more of Duchess in the future.

            I like Duchess, but in moderation. She works well as an in-the-house antagonist, but her griping, whining, and ordering-around of everyone gets a touch old.

            However, I DID like seeing HER be miserable for a change in Duchess of Wails.

            And her design is awesome... it's very original to have a 2D character in a 2D-meant-to-be-3D cartoon (I said cartoon because I know the 2D in 3D thing has been played to death in shows like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Space Jam). This kind of makes me wonder, though... (I'm sorry if this has appeared in an episode and I've just forgotten it) since she IS 2D in a world that is meant to be 3D, can she fit through extremely small places like a piece of paper through wooden slats?

                lol

                Don't worry, everyone's got thier own opinion and I respect everyone's. But I do agree that Duchess is indeed a creative character, she's literally 2-D in a cartoon. X3 Pluss she looks like she was created by Piccasso.

                I heard on Wikipedia that Duchess was created by Frankie when she was little. But I highly doubt it sence Frankie is such a nice person (although she does have a firey temper). It's probibly just a bunch of nonsence.

                    And besides isn't Duchess supposed to be older then Frankie. Which of course puts that theory right on the scrap heap, if that was the case.

                      The Foster's pages on Wikipedia say or have said at one point that Eduardo will die a grisly death, that Bloo is Mac's only friend(not best, only), that Frankie is named after Frank Black of alternative-rock band The Pixies, that Mac's Mom and her IF would show up in "Good Wilt Hunting", etc...

                      Yeah, I'd say it's just a bunch of nonsense.

                      I like Duchess. Not as a person, of course, but as a character. She's a great villain figure, and I wouldn't mind seeing her given another starring role in the same quality as "Duchess of Wails". I especially like the interactions between her and Frankie.

                      The opening minute of DOW with Duchess and Frankie arguing was infinitely more funny and entertaining than all twenty-one minutes of the episode that preceded it in premiere airdate.

                            Which is exactly why Foster's needs her...every show needs that antagonist, the character everyone loves to hate. While I certainly wouldn't want to see her in large doses, a little bit of Duchess (no "t", consarn it) adds a little bit of conflict that makes the show more interesting. And unlike certain other unpleasant IFs who shall..erm...remain nameless, I don't get a feeling of maliciousness with Duchess. She's a royal pain in the you-know-what, but she can't help it...it's just who she is.
                            I used to have two turntables and a microphone. Then one of the turntables broke. Now I just watch a lot of television.

                              If she did possess that ability, I'm wondering if she'd even use it, considering the fact that she disdains doing any real physical activity and will attempt to find a way to get by without doing it no matter what.

                              As for the character herself, I like the character a bit. I think she can make an entertaining antagonist, especially when she plays off of Bloo. I still think her interaction with Bloo and Mac in "Dinner is Swerved" made for some of the funniest moments in that episode.
