History Characters / TheSmurfsThe100Smurfs

** This is undone and [[InvertedTrope inverted]] for the live-action movie, where he's far more verbal and sarcastic, and only says "I hate..." a couple of times in the entire movie. Same goes for the 2016 feature film, and [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs2021 2021 animated series.]] His catchphrase in the 2021 series is "Me, I don't like" and "I do not like" which is an english translation Grouchy's original French catchphrase "Moi, j'aime pas" from the original French version of the comics and French dubs.

* DemotedToExtra: He's a major character in both comics and cartoons, but only appears in a few scenes in the live-action movie. Plays the Smurf Of Christmas Future in ''A Christmas Carol''.

A rambunctious and energetic Smurf with a big temper, traits which are only exaggerated when he along with Nat and Slouchy is de-aged to Smurfling age in the comic "The Smurflings" and in Season 5 of the cartoon.

* EarlyBirdCameo: There ''is'' an angry Smurf who occasionally showed up in supplemental material identified that was exclusively sold in Belgium markets for the comic book series, depicting him as a Smurf who tended to pick a fight with the other Smurfs before his official appearance "The Smurflings".

* YankTheDogsChain: Even in the episodes that show that the other Smurfs care about him deep down ("Good Neighbor Smurf", "Smurfette's Sweet Tooth", "The Essence Of Brainy"), he will eventually annoy them once again and will be thrown out of the village before the end of the episode.

The village chef. Appears in the comic books, live-action movie and ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'' and [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs2021 the 2021 series]], while the old adaptation [[CompositeCharacter merges this character with Greedy's.]]

* SimpletonVoice: Clumsy is given this voice in the 1981 cartoon series. However, this wasn't present in the rest of the franchise.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Type 1, with Brainy. In the 1981 TV series, Clumsy is the only Smurf who genuinely admires Brainy and dotes on him, usually to Brainy's annoyance. When his glasses have their lenses broken, though, Clumsy becomes Brainy's eyes, and that once Brainy greatly appreciates Clumsy.

Appears only in the comic book though made a quick yet silent appearance in ''The Smurfs: The Legend of Smurfy Hollow''.

The Smurf responsible for growing the village's vegetables. In later seasons, he gets his own GenieInABottle, Gourdy, though he generally prefers working for things rather than wishing for them. In the 1981 cartoon, and the early comics, he dresses in ordinary Smurf clothes, but in later comics and the live-action movie he wears a straw hat and green overalls, though at one point in the comics, he had [[https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTaMzxtTRnNJ4ehhYkGRjCcpMRHsh6Vv67CqIV-yKG2dATsVwraEg worn Smurf pants held by two suspenders]] with clogs. Though it’s worth mentioning that in the [=CGI=] films, his overalls has the attached footing like Handy’s.

A Smurf firefighter. He appears only in the comic books, as his role in the cartoon show is taken by Handy Smurf.

* CanonImmigrant: First appeared in the cartoon before his appearance in "The Smurfs And The Book That Tells Everything"

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He is hugely unpopular amongst the other Smurfs, due to being a smug, arrogant and pretentious KnowNothingKnowItAll, and as a running gag he clobbered with a blunt object (in the comics), or booted out of the village at least OnceAnEpisode (in the 1981 TV series). In the 1981 TV series, the only Smurf who actually admires Brainy and enjoys his company is Clumsy, but all the others can't stand him most of the time. This trait of course gets downplayed a bit as his characterization softens through interpretations, though the other Smurfs still show playful disdain whenever his pompous side reemerges.

His name defines his character.

* KindheartedSimpleton: In the 1980s series, however, the "simpleton" part about him was toned down in the live-action films to be more of just a klutz. This aspect was removed entirely in the comic books and 2021 TV series.

* OnlyFriend: In the 1981 TV series, the large reason for said OddFriendship, Clumsy's the only one who never gets annoyed with Brainy. This

* KindheartedSimpleton: In the 1980s series, however, the "simpleton" part about him was toned down in the live-action films to be more of just a klutz. This aspect was removed entirely in the 2021 series.

* CanonForeigner: Originally introduced in the movie adaptation of The Smurfs And The Magic Flute, then he was adapted as a character inspired by the comic book's Dopey/Dimwitty in the 1981 cartoon, but then started showing up as a seperate character from Dopey/Dimwitty in later comics and the 2021 cartoon.
* CatchPhrase: "Gosh!" and "Golly!" in the Hannah-Barbara series.

* TheDitz: In the 1981 cartoon, he was a dimwitted but amiable Smurf.
* EraSpecificPersonality: The only thing that stays consistent between the various incarnations is that he's TheKlutz, though his NiceGuy nature is almost as prevalent -- and other traits vary wildly: The comic and the movie adaptation of Smurfs And The Magic Flute seldom has him as anything but being plain clumsy, while the 1981 cartoon show has him as a KindheartedSimpleton and TheDitz bordering on FriendToAllLivingThings. In the live-action movies he's far more intelligent and is portrayed as a soft-spoken {{Determinator}}, in ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'' he's a LovableCoward and a bit of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} with a rather huge case of OpenMouthInsertFoot syndrome, and in [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs2021 the 2021 TV series]] he's an overeager goof whose disasters would probably be smaller if he stopped trying so hard.

* TheMillstone: As a result of his clumsiness, he tends to cause problems or accidents to the others Smurfs in both the cartoon and live-action movie.
* NiceGuy: You couldn't ask for a sweeter-natured Smurf; sometimes he borders on the DumbIsGood category.

* OnlyFriend: The large reason for said OddFriendship, Clumsy's the only one who never gets annoyed with Brainy in the 1981 TV series.
* SimpletonVoice: Clumsy is given this voice in the 1981 cartoon series. However, this wasn't present in the Live-Action films and removed entirely in the 2021 series.

Appears in the comic books. Usually part of a gag where he's asked to go get one item and accidentally gets another. Is often mistaken for Clumsy Smurf by the fandom (probably because certain translations of the comic directly names him as Clumsy Smurf), but in later comics appears as a completely separate character (when Clumsy Smurf was added as a separate character from Dopey into the comics).

** Like his little Smurfs (except Clumsy), he is often prone to expressing his anger towards Brainy or tossing him out of the village after being pushed to a boiling point (especially in a few episodes of the ninth season, such as "Cave Smurfs" and "Papa Loses His Patience").

* AdaptationalIntelligence: In the cartoon series he does ''not'' live up to his name and is a full–fledged KnowNothingKnowItAll. In the live action films, he's a ''bit'' [[TheSmartGuy more knowledgeable]], if still fairly pretentious... and in the ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'' movie he's a full-fledged TheSmartGuy. It's worth noting that in the Belgian original it's not even implied that he has intellectual pretentions--he's called most often "The Smurf With Glasses" or "The Moralizing Smurf." Outside of his wearing glasses -- which traditionally imply intelligence in many culture -- there's nothing about him to suggest that he or anyone else thinks he's especially smart. He's most often a nag, a kiss-up, or a tattle-tale.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the Live-Action films, "The Legend Of Smurfy Hollow," "The Smurfs: A Christmas Carol," ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'', and the 2021 series. Brainy is a lot nicer and more sympathetic than he was in the comics and cartoon series.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Kissed Smurfblossom in "Where's My Smurfway", but has also kissed Lazy Smurf on the lips in the Season 2 episode "Smurf Me No Flowers". Also has a lot of subtext with Clumsy.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He is hugely unpopular amongst the other Smurfs, due to being a smug, arrogant and pretentious KnowNothingKnowItAll, and as a running gag he gets tossed out of the village at least OnceAnEpisode. The only Smurf who actually admires Brainy and enjoys his company is Clumsy, but all the others can't stand him most of the time. This trait of course gets downplayed a bit as his characterisation softens through interpretations, though the other Smurfs still show playful disdain whenever his pompous side reemerges.
* {{Flanderization}}: In the cartoon series, his incompetence and boasting ego started to increase around Season 3, after he started introducing his series of "Quotations of Brainy Smurf" books. By Season 6, it shows that he is incapable of doing anything right and causes plenty of trouble around the village (such as framing Clumsy for losing Baby Smurf in "The Smurfy Verdict".)

* OddFriendship: His best friend is Clumsy, of all people, mostly because Clumsy is the only smurf who genuinely likes him.

* ThrowTheDogABone: Clumsy's existence is this to him, meaning there's at least another Smurf who genuinely likes and respects him. The few times he gets a happy ending (without the YankTheDogsChain) are mostly the episodes that focus on his friendship with Clumsy.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Type 1, with Clumsy. He's often annoyed by Clumsy, but at the end of the day really does care for him.

* EraSpecificPersonality: The only thing that stays consistent between the various incarnations is that he's TheKlutz, though his NiceGuy nature is almost as prevalent. He's usually TheDitz as well, but not always -- and other traits vary wildly: The comic and the movie adaptation of Smurfs And The Magic Flute seldom has him as anything but being plain clumsy, while the cartoon show has him as a KindheartedSimpleton bordering on FriendToAllLivingThings. In the live-action movies he's far more intelligent and is portrayed as a soft-spoken {{Determinator}}, in ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'' he's a LovableCoward and a bit of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} with a rather huge case of OpenMouthInsertFoot syndrome, and in [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs2021 the 2021 series]] he's an overeager goof whose disasters would probably be smaller if he stopped trying so hard.

* OnlyFriend: The large reason for said OddFriendship, Clumsy's the only one who never gets annoyed with Brainy.
* SimpletonVoice: Clumsy is given this voice in the cartoon series. However, this wasn't present in the Live-Action films and removed entirely in the 2021 series.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Type 1, with Brainy. Clumsy is the only Smurf who genuinely admires Brainy and dotes on him, usually to Brainy's annoyance. When his glasses have their lenses broken, though, Clumsy becomes Brainy's eyes, and that once Brainy greatly appreciates Clumsy.

* CompositeCharacter: Possibly. It's never confirmed that Dreamy Smurf and Astrosmurf are the same character in the comics, but in the cartoon, they definitely are. The animated series also makes him a composite with Flying Smurf and Traveling Smurf, and at least Flying Smurf is definitely not the same character in the comics.

* CanonForeigner: Only appears in the cartoon shows.

The Smurf responsible for growing the village's vegetables. In later seasons, he gets his own GenieInABottle, Gourdy, though he generally prefers working for things rather than wishing for them. In the cartoon, and the early comics, he dresses in ordinary Smurf clothes, but in later comics and the live-action movie he wears a straw hat and green overalls, though at one point in the comics, he had [[https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTaMzxtTRnNJ4ehhYkGRjCcpMRHsh6Vv67CqIV-yKG2dATsVwraEg worn Smurf pants held by two suspenders]] with clogs. Though it’s worth mentioning that in the [=CGI=] films, his overalls has the attached footing like Handy’s.

* HeroicBSOD: In ''Film/TheSmurfs2'', Papa Smurf temporarily becomes depressed after witnessing Smurfette using Gargamel's birthday gift to her which is her own personal dragon wand. He believes that she's becoming like Gargamel and The Naughties before witnessing Smurfette saving the lives of Hackus and Vexy from death.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He is hugely unpopular amongst the other Smurfs, due to being a smug, arrogant and pretentious KnowNothingKnowItAll, and as a running gag he gets tossed out of the village at least OnceAnEpisode. The only Smurf who actually admires Brainy and enjoys his company is Clumsy, but all the others can't stand him most of the time. This trait of course gets downplayed a bit as his characterisation softens through interpretations, though the other Smurfs still show playful distain whenever his pompous side reemerges.

* MirrorSelf: Vanity Smurf's reflection, brought to life by a lightning.

* PatientZero: Of the eponymous disease from the comic book story "The Black Smurfs" ([[AdaptationDyeJob "The Purple Smurfs"]] in English markets), as revealed in "The Egg And The Smurfs."

* GrumpyBear: In the comic books, it was speculated at one point by other Smurfs that he never quite got over being stung by the Buzz Fly (apparently because he was the first victim and stayed the longest under its effect). In the cartoon show, his behavior is simply natural.

* GettingTheBoot: The typical response he gets whenever a Smurf gets tired of listening to him in the cartoon show. In the comic books, he would get whacked in the head with a mallet.

* NoodleIncident: At one point, the Smurfs meet a character cursed into a BalefulPolymorph and compelled to speak in complete gibberish. Papa Smurf not only recognizes the affliction, but more or less understands what the cursed character is saying, calling it "the language of the cursed." When asked by his fellow Smurfs how he can understand this "language," he refuses to elaborate.

* BalefulPolymorph: The result of his biggest experiment; he turned himself into a strange dragon-like creature and needed help to change back.

* AdaptationalVillainy: [[CompositeCharacter Became King Smurf]] in the AnimatedAdaptation of the original story. In the comic, he was King Smurf's ''opponent'' in the election to choose the replacing leader during Papa Smurf's absence, and joined the rebellion against him (though he got captured pretty early and spent most of the book in jail).

* AdaptationalIntelligence: In the cartoon series he does ''not'' live up to his name and is a full–fledged KnowNothingKnowItAll. In the live action films, he's a ''bit'' [[TheSmartGuy more knowledgeable]], if still fairly pretentious... and in the ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'' movie he's a full-fledged TheSmartGuy.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Kissed Smurfblossom in "Where's My Smurfway", but has also kissed Lazy Smurf on the lips in the Season 2 episode "Smurf Me No Flowers". Also has a lot of HoYay with Clumsy.

* AmbiguouslyGay: Kissed Lazy Smurf on the lips in the Season 2 episode "Smurf Me No Flowers". Also has a lot of HoYay with Clumsy.

* AscendedExtra: In the original comics he was a very minor character, occasionally appearing for brief gags where he gets injuries an causes accidents. The cartoon series made him a major character, and pretty much every adaptation since has followed suit. He even started getting bigger roles in the comics, being a major or semi-major player in a few stories.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Brainy, to the point that them temporarily breaking up their friendship in the Season 4 episode "The Smurfiest of Friends" is treated like a breakup of a more romantic kind.

* TheDitz: Lives up to his name, and is very dimwitted and dopey.

* AscendedExtra: After being DemotedToExtra in the live-action movies, he's back to being a main character in ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage''.

* DemotedToExtra: He's a major character in both comics and cartoon, but only appears in a few scenes in the live-action movie. Plays the Smurf Of Christmas Future in ''A Christmas Carol''.

* DumberThanTheyLook: Despite his name and the fact that [[SmartPeopleWearGlasses he wears glasses like the stereotypical smart guy]], he's just a [[KnowNothingKnowItAll braggart who doesn't know nearly as much as he says he does]]. In "Salad Smurfs", he [[ItMakesSenseInContext turns into a pea]] as a [[StealthPun reference to the fact that he's a pea-brain.]]

* TheSmartGuy: At least if you ask ''him,'' he'll tell you in no uncertain terms that he is. Others' opinions... vary a little.

* TVGenius: Has NerdGlasses and library full of self-written books, is arrogant and condescending, always ready to boast about his vast intellect while being a top-notch KnowNothingKnowItAll and generally useless.
