* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Moose is introduced in "Franklin's New Friend" and only appears later in a smattering of book releases and no further episodes of the television show, completely disappearing without any explanation. Possible reasons include his large size making him a pain to animate/draw and perhaps that he was never intended to be a regular character, but they wanted to adapt the book for television anyway. Even so, the way he was [[IncrediblyLamePun Chucked out]] was more than little jarring considering that one of the big [[AnAesop Aesops]] of the story was about making a new friend. (Note: A group of three moose that may or may not be Moose and his family are briefly seen in the opening of ''Franklin and the Green Knight''.)

Added DiffLines:

* StockYuck: He has a strong dislike for Brussels sprouts. The early story "Franklin's Blanket" involves him missing his favorite blanket. When found, it's filled with Brussels sprouts - he had used it to hide them to avoid eating them and then forgotten where he had stashed it. In the third season story "Franklin's Fossil," when Franklin tries to put off digging potatoes to get something from Mr. Mole, Mrs. Turtle threatens to cook Brussels sprouts for dinner instead. Franklin then rapidly gets to work digging the potatoes. In the special ''Back to School with Franklin'', Franklin gives his blanket to his little sister Harriet for comfort, feeling he no longer needs it. It is then shown that they have similar taste, as she too tries to hide Brussels sprouts in the blanket.

(needs to be expanded beyond a ZCE and made less bashy (the "perverse urge to make life miserable for Franklin" part)).

* ImNotAfraidOfYou: In the first book ''Franklin in the Dark'', Franklin gives the monsters living in his shell a verbal ''coup de grâce'' by saying a brave "Good night". It also doubles as a tranquil ShutUpHannibal. The animated adaptation streamlines this by having him simply going into his shell and the "good night" is directed at his parents instead.



* SiblingsWanted: He had this throughout the first four seasons of the animated series. At times he had a couple of sibling surrogates, first in his best friend Bear's little sister, Beatrice and also in a guest-star youngster character named Squirrel. The ''Franklin and the Green Knight'' movie deals with him at first being excited about finally getting a sibling, then becoming worried when he learns that babies get a lot of attention, even before they're born. ''Franklin's Magic Christmas'' sees him dealing with jealousy issues with his new sister, Harriet, who is now toddler/early-prescchooler age thanks to a combination of ComicBookTime and SoapOperaRapidAgingSyndrome. The fifth and sixth seasons of the program, as well further specials and the spin-off series ''Franklin and Friends'' have him, in general, settled comfortably in the role of caring big brother.
