History Characters / JohnnyBravo

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He may be a boorish meathead with a questionable understanding of how to be respectful towards women, but he does love his mother to the degree of being willing to do anything for her and has done sefless deeds without expecting any kind of reward, like ratting out the Sensitive Male as an insincere womanizer to the women he charmed the moment the Sensitive Male confessed to being dishonest. There have even been occasions where he tries to make Suzy happy after he regrets upsetting her (such as changing his mind about buying cookies from her in "Cookie Crisis" when his yelling at her to leave him alone causes her to cry and impersonating the Tooth Fairy to convince her he's wrong about the Tooth Fairy not existing in "Tooth or Consequences").

* MommasBoy: The only girl who actually does love him is his momma, an affection that Johnny wholeheartedly returns. The mere thought that someone might upset his momma is enough to make Johnny genuinely angry.

* {{Expy}}:
** ''Johnny Bravo'' was adapted from the student animation ''Mess O'Blues'', which detailed the misadventures of a Music/ElvisPresley impersonator, and Johnny concurrently takes after the performer. He sports a massive pompadour and constantly speaks in a deep Southern drawl similar to Presley's, but differs in the fact that his bravado is only impressive to himself, with everyone else seeing him as a buffoon. In fact, Creator/JeffBennett was cast as Johnny purely because Van Partible was impressed by his Elvis impressions.
** Johnny is also a riff on Arthur Fonzarelli from ''Series/HappyDays'', constantly acting like a suave '50s womanizer. Unlike the Fonz, however, he's much less successful at it.

* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: According to the creators, Johnny does in fact get girls. But it is always offscreen, because if we see him succeeding then it ruins the joke.

* ShoutOut: After Johnny removes his boots, his feet are shown to be wearing striped socks and then curl up beneath the meteor he's pinned under, alluding to the Wicked Witch of the West's demise in ''Film/TheWizardOfOz''.

* DuckSeasonRabbitSeason: When the two girls who are his fans offer to become his new agents on the deal they get 80%, Jiggy insists that they get 40%, and the bickering goes on until the girls manipulate Jiggy into insisting on 80%.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He appeared in several episodes in the first season, but disappeared afterwards when Kirk Tingblad took over as showrunner during the second and third seasons. Not even the Van Partible-helmed fourth season featured him.

* {{Narcissist}}: He is very full of himself, constantly checking mirrors and flexing in front of women.

* {{Acrofatic}}: If the beginning to the ''"Johnny Bravo Goes to Bollywood"'' movie is to be believed. [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer Yes, you read that right.]]

%%* ImpossibleHourglassFigure

[[folder:Sweet Cheeks]]
->Voiced by: Creator/JohnKassir
A supervillain with an obsession for candy, chocolate, and all things sweet. He appears intended as a foil when Johnny tries to be a superhero, but proves to be surprisingly dangerous for such a hammy silly villain, especially against someone as strong as Johnny.

* {{Acrofatic}}: His corpulence doesn't seem to slow him down in the least.
* CurbStompBattle: When Johnny stands in his way or otherwise challenges him, the hammy but otherwise unintimidating Sweet Cheeks wastes no time with supervillain shenanigans and simply beats Johnny up badly. Despite his odd target of theft and silly appearance, Sweet Cheeks is still a professional criminal and '''extremely dangerous'''. It's also implied he kept his weakness a secret to prevent anyone from simply melting him with water.
* DeathByIrony: An accidental deluge by Johnny reveals that Sweet Cheeks had been made of candy (and just as soluble) all along.
* FatBastard: He's quite chubby, as one might expect from someone [[SweetTooth obsessed with candy]].
* ImMelting: When Johnny accidentally hoses him down, Sweet Cheeks begins dissolving and bubbling, eventually seeping away into only a few tiny puddles. His gloves and boots at first seem to be the only things left, but then melt away all the same.
* MisanthropeSupreme: When he attempts to turn Suzy into candy, he states that he has an extreme hatred for all people.
* MonsterClown: Sweet Cheeks mostly looks like an ordinary person dressed as a clown without makeup. Definitely not someone you want at birthday parties though.
* WouldHurtAChild: He was going to turn Suzy into candy and eat her.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He appeared in several episodes in the first season, but disappeared afterwards. Not even the Van Partible-helmed fourth season featured him.

* NoMouth: Like Johnny, his mouth isn't visible unless he's using it.

* DemotedToExtra: Despite being a major character in the previous two seasons, the final season cut his screentime so much he didn't get a single major role, let alone speaking roles and was relegated entirely to cameos.

* InkSuitActor: Is blatantly the actual Donny Osmond voicing an animated version of himself.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: While Carl and Pops at least had their presence reduced in the fourth season, Master Hamma stands out as the one significant character introduced in the second season to not show up at all after Van Partible returned to the series.

* ManlyFacialHair: Naturally, as a cartoon martial arts sensei, he has an impressive mustache to further cement in viewers' minds taht he's a badass.

* {{Expy}}: He's based on Elvis Presley and the Fonz from ''Series/HappyDays'' considering that like the former he's got a big pompadour and speaks in a very similar way as him and like the latter he acts like a suave womanizer, though he's much less successful at it.

->Voiced by: Creator/GeyDeLisle

* ShesAllGrownUp: She was very homely as a child but is now so attractive that Johnny even tried to hit on her, until he recognized her as his childhood bully.

* RecurringCharacter: He has this status whenever Van Partible has worked on the show. He appeared in two episodes from Season 1 and Season 4 respectively, and he appeared in the holiday specials.

* {{Expy}}: He is most likely based on the ComicBook/GreenLantern, since he wears a green costume, has a codename with "green" at the beginning of it, is capable of flight, generates green light and has his power in his boots, which bestow those powers on anyone who wears them.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: To Little Suzy.
