I used Chimborazo as a question in a trivia game I ran at work today. They don’t need to know the I know of Chimborazo because I am a Dadder!

Sorry to Elton John but when it comes to “don’t let the sun go down on me” he literally has nothing on Steve Smith

Rewatched an episode of Cow & Chicken, it was amusing how similar The Red Guy is to Roger.

Roger is basically a better version of the Red Guy from cow and chicken. He can be anywhere, be any character, fulfill any role needed as protagonist or antagonist. Seth worked on C&C so it makes sense.

But it got me thinking, are there any other characters in animation besides Bugs Bunny who are similar to these two?

Characters that defy the laws of reality and fit into any plot as any persona?

Does American Dad only work because Roger can be anyone, anywhere, at anytime with unlimited resources?

150 Upvotes

Kudos to the writers for developing him that way, but I think one of the reasons the series lasts as long as it does is that Roger is allowed to be a completely different person in every episode, which never works when older sitcoms attempt to introduce new characters. There can’t be a Cousin Oliver if Cousin Oliver makes a singe appearance and is never seen again. So many American Dad episodes revolve around a one-off Roger character it’s starting to feel like cheating. Am I alone?

Family Guy does the same with Stewie. Is it a MacFarlane thing?
