Roger seems almost... obsessed... with Doug.
- This is ALL from "Doug's on TV."
Roger: "Oh, and Funnie, if I were you, I'd bring a saddle to school tomorrow... because the kids are gonna be RIDING YOU ALL DAY!!!"
- Then there's this exchange between the two, sitting on the couch watching the burning of embarrassing tapes. Yeah, THAT has no subtext these days...
Doug: "This bowl of popcorn ain't big enough for the both of us, "Rowdy Roger."
Roger: "Watch it, 'Hoss!' I may have to rope and hogtie you. Don't forget, I've got the record!"
Doug: "Well, rooty-toot-toot to you too!"
Roger: "Well, yippie-ti-yo-ti-yay to you!"
- And after an oh-so-appropriate pause, when Doug notes Roger is eating all the popcorn...
Roger: "Look, 'Hoss,' don't make me ride you around the room."
- From another episode: "Looks like everybody's paired up but us, Funnie. Guess that means we're partners."
- Doug even seems to imagine this as a possibility. In his imagine spots, Roger has dressed as a girl and put a love note in Doug's locker, kissed Doug on the head, and said such things as "Ooo, I think I'm in loooove. Isn't he just darling?"
- Roger was the one to organize an anniversary party for Doug, and when Doug is flattered, quickly proclaims, "Yeah, uh, well, it doesn't mean we're getting married or anything..!"
- After Roger gets over his rather short-lived crush on Judy, he promptly gives Doug the bunch of flowers he was carrying.
- "Doug's Fair Lady" has Roger butting in to join Doug's group and pretty much adhering to his side. He even wants to sit next to Doug on the ferris wheel, and Doug has to try pretty hard to convince him not to.
- Female version: In "Doug's a Big Fat Liar", Patti goes to a dance with "Melvin", really Judy in drag. Seems innocent enough, but when the whole ruse is revealed, Patti isn't even upset! She even says "Melvin" is the best dancer at the hoedown and continues to dance with Judy throughout the rest of the episode. Also, they share Judy's room in an episode of the Disney series.
