Dreams of Episodes


This is why we never see them show a lot of romance on the show--how awkward would it be to make out with a parental figure? It also explains his hatred of Courage...he's jealous of him for stealing Muriel's attention, like a spoiled little boy demanding attention from his mother while she's taking care of his baby brother.

[[WMG: Each episode is one of Courage's dreams.]]
Since he is easily frightened, he gets nightmares about scary things he agknowledges. Of course, Muriel and Eustace exist and they live in nowhere, or that would not be a part of his dream. When Courage has his dreams in "Perfect" (Like that weird mutated trumpet) Are terms when you wake up inside of a dream, you would understand if it happened to you. He named the dreams himself; therefore the title cards share the same name. These never happen in the first place.

[[WMG: There is ''[[EldritchAbomination something]]'' in the middle of Nowhere...]]
Most of Courages enemies seem to have been either drawn to the Bagges or given some kind of ability they shouldn't have been able to get. It may be that the something is [[SealedEvilInACan trapped, possibly beneath the farmhouse]] is giving power to dark hearted individuals in order to eliminate the Bagges, and especially Courage. For whatever reason, the dog is preventing his escape.

It also seems that some of the ''villains'' are serving a higher (read:offscreen) power, and many who have failed seem to endure horrible punishments for [[YouHaveFailedMe failure]], probably from the unseen "something".

[[WMG: Courage is God (or a god, of some kind.]]
Courage does impossible things all the time; transforming to attempt to speak with the humans, pulling objects out of nowhere, surviving mortal wounds and injuries, etc. Clearly he is some sort of god cast down to earth to pay for crimes; perhaps he fell in love with Muriel as a god (like the goose god did), which would tie into "The things I do for love!" and why Eustace almost always gets some sort of comeuppance. Courage must save this family once a day for a year until he is released from his bond; he is granted almmost any power, except for the ability to actually speak with humans (in a way they understand).

[[WMG: The Male buck deer in ''Deer Hunter, Farmer Hunted'' is Eustace's brother (Horus) reincarnated]]
After going to purgatory or something like it, god wanted to punish him for his JerkAss ways that ultimately turned Eustace into one. So he reincarnated his spirit into an animal he hunted alot, a deer. As a deer he's lost many of his memories when he was human but retains some things such as glasses and the family baldness on top of the head (He has also had a HeelFaceTurn into the well-meaning smart deer he is in the episode, and even has a loving deer family). This is also why it focuses on Eustace's problems he had with his brother earlier in the series. When they confront eachother later, Eustace targets his brother (Whether he knows or not if he was reincarnated as such) for revenge even if unknowingly. And when the Table's are turned, Horus brings out a laser gun that a hunter dropped and he knows how to use based on past life knowledge. His original plan was the only way for Eustace to learn was to die and maybe have his own lesson by God. But when Courage pleads to him when they're trapped and cornered he realizes that's not the way as it might be considered one last jerkass moment put on his brother so he goes with Courage's plan for a game show of wits in which because Horus was always better in Eustace at anything he sweeps the questions and defeats him. Though Eustace doesn't exactly learn a lesson at all (He never does in the series really)

They used to be top secret agents charged with battling aliens, monsters, and all other manner of supernatural life forms. At some point, one of two things happened: Either something happened during a mission that erased their memories, or when they retired, the government themselves took their memories of it all so they couldn't potentially leak classified information. This is why creepy stuff seems almost drawn to them all throughout the show.

The lint lady used to be a mad scientist who conducted strange experiments and tested them on animals. One of her products, which causes people to have her knowledge, causes a gerbil she named Lulumay to become an anthropomorphic animal who seises revenge on those who tested on his kind. The first victim obviously being the mad scientist.

An atomic bomb was dropped in the middle of Nowhere and just few people reminded. On of them was Eustace mother who because of the atomic rays lost her hair.
The other atomic rays caused a mutation in most animals leading to animals like Katz or LeQuack and were also responsible for causing a genetical mutation in one of Courages ancestors.

In every cartoon universe, there's always a gag as to why the Sphinx has no nose. No such gag has turned up in Courage, but Space Chicken did use his plunger to remove the head of the Statue of Liberty. Ergo, he tried to get a Sphinx head, but it was too big and only the nose came away.
