History WMG / FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends

[[WMG: Being separated from one's creator has an adverse reaction on imaginary friends.]
The reason Bloo gets worse and worse throughout the show is because he feels Mac getting further and further away. Early on in the show, he was a nice and adorable friend who was incredibly loyal to Mac. Eventually he couldn't stay with Mac anymore and found a home in Foster's, where Mac would visit every day... He can live it up in this house, he can be comfortable, he can slouch, he can be lazy... But his friend Mac is gone for a large portion of his day and he comes to resent him a bit for it. He's always clamoring for attention because he wants to know that if he can't have Mac's, who he feels is slipping away, he can at least have everyone else's. He's constantly drawing attention to himself because he doesn't want to end up alone. He wants to ensure himself that if Mac were to disappear, which he's expecting to happen, he'll have the love and adoration of everyone else, that he doesn't need Mac. But he fails every time, making him try that much harder. He is always trying to prove himself and his worth, aggrandizing himself and acting better than everyone and above every rule because that seems like exactly the kind of thing a person who society deemed as childish and unworthy of hanging around their best friend would want to convince themselves. Think about that for a moment. Imagine a real young boy being told by society that he is nothing more than a childish and worthless object. His best friend shouldn't be hanging out with him, as it is demeaning to his best friend to even be in his presence. His best friend gets ostracized by society for believing that he's worth being around and staying friends with. The amount of damage to his self-esteem would be monumental. Bloo is the perfect narcissist. He aggrandizes his self-worth, constantly reaffirming that he is great, cool, and awesome, because deep down he is a sad, lonely little boy who is trying to convince himself that he isn't a worthless piece of garbage that deserves to be thrown away. It's not that he doesn't care about Mac, it's obvious in certain moments of kindness in between his jerkass behavior that he does. He just feels he has something to prove, and he's trying his hardest, personal relationships be damned.

In the election episode, they use Florida's infamous punch-out ballots, plus there's the whole [[OnlyInFlorida craziness of the world]].

* Duchess: A SpoiledBrat of a child with artistic aspirations (see TedBaxter). After putting up with Duchess for five minutes, they may have realized how unpleasant they are to other people.

The only reason that no one is given genuine psychiatric treatment is that by their own logic a truly insane person imagines things, persons and events that dont really exist, but since everyones personal physical thoughts and dreams can be physically seen and interacted with/by others ''no one'' is declared mentally ill. It does explain why Madame Foster, Mac and numerous other human characters imagined their friends to act the way they do.

In reality, Frankie, Madam Foster, Goo, and that one girl next door are the only other characters from the show who exist outside of Mac's imagination. Frankie is just a regular granddaughter who takes care of her old grandmother. The two women probably noticed how much Terrance bullied his little brother and tried to make Mac feel better by making friends with him. Mac then simply placed Foster's Home in the Foster's mansion and claimed to himself that he was going to visit Bloo every afternoon at 3 o'clock when he really was visiting Frankie and playing with her.

* Goo is exactly what she is in the series: a hyperactive, creative little girl. She's probably playing along with Mac's [="Foster's Home"-Games=] because making things up is her specialty as well. The SheIsNotMyGirlfriend moments stem from this: Mac is {{not so different}} from Goo. He just keeps denying it because she scares him a bit.

Madame Foster probably came across children who couldn't find their would-be self and were lost and miserable because they didn't know who they truly were, as well as abandoned imaginary friends, so she established Fosters' Home, to help others find their paths. (Alternatively, Fosters' Home is this universe's Heart Cradle.) This also explains why Frankie doesn't have an imaginary friend of her own: she knows that she is going to help other children find their would-be selves, so she doesn't need one herself.

Bloo is a Jerkass; Mac is a nice guy. Wilt is constantly apologetic; [[spoiler: Jordan Michaels]] is strong and asertive. Mister Herriman is a strict workaholic; Madame Foster is free spirited.

Every kid gets a bit hyper when eating too much sugar, but Mac clearly has some suppressed energies that just explode out of him once the barricades open up. Growing up with a MissingMom, who tried to convince him to be a "big boy" whenever she was not Missing, a completely DisappearedDad, and an Evil Big Brother, Mac eventually learned that it's better to keep your mouth shut as much as possible if you don't want to get into trouble with bullies, neighbours, strangers on the streets, and the like. Also, being a nice boy gave him a higher score with his Mom to make her pay attention to him at least a little bit more. Therefore, he had to suppress anything selfish, wild, and childish within him. These suppressed parts manifested in two ways: First, the creation of Bloo, who is selfish and childish, but cute; and second, his Sugar Rush MushroomSamba Persona, which is wild and unstoppable and doesn't care about anyone or anything, save sugar.

** Imaginative and sufficiently horrible, eh? Foster's is lucky that [[ToyStory Sid Phillips]] doesn't live in their world, then. Non-living toys means that he would likely have remained the way the first movie portrayed him. Add that to his status as a pseudo-[[ShadowArchetype Shadow Archetype]] to Andy...

* Goo will be classified as a Weapon of Mass Destruction.

[[WMG: Foster´s is actually a storage facility for government experiments.]]
The government has been creating creatures in an attempt to make a super weapon. To keep this a secret, the government teleports the "imaginary" friends to children´s room after using floride toothpaste and drinking water to subtly affect their imagination. Then they instituted Foster´s as a storage facility for the friends after the child got bored. The most dangerous creations get put off as teenagers´ friends. The friends also get false memories implanted. All the technology needed for this operation was reverse engineered off of Megatron.

That is to say, the very first and the very last episode really does show what happened first and last. But the episodes in between were often shown out of order. Proof of this is that in some episodes, Frankie seems to be weilding more authority - In "Adoptcalypse Now", "Go Goo Go" and "Better Off Ed" for instance, she's acting more like Mr. Herriman's deputy manager than like a subordinate housekeeper. Think about - in "Better Off Ed", Mr. Herriman and Frankie attend a home improvement seminar ''together''; The ''old'' Mr. Herriman would've gone alone and told Frankie that doing chores is a better use of her time.

The big turning point was of course in "Destination Imagination", where Mr. Herriman finally learns to listen to Frankie and respect her. This would also mean that Goo didn't make her debut until ''after'' "Destination Imagination", which explains why she wasn't in this episode even though the rest of the gang was. Other episodes where you'd think it would be natural for Goo would be present - "Good Wilt Hunting", for instance - might also have taken place before "Go Goo Go".

Duchess is one of the oldest friends at the house, and has been there since Madame Foster had just recently started it up. Terrence is unlikely to be her creator.

The monsters the Powerpuff Girls fight are actually Extremeosauri, and when they are defeated, the Foster's crew goes and picks them up to put them in one of their big metal boxes and take care of them. There's Powerpuff Girls merch scattered all around the canon, including Frankie's shirt, because they are real superheroes. The imaginary Mojo Jojo from the pilot was made up when his kid was watching the news, not cartoon. Don't believe me? Well, there WAS a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjumIFpQ_Rk PPG episode]] where a kid's imaginary friend was real...

<<|WildMassGuessing|>>

At the series finale of Foster's, Cheese has moved into Foster's and at the sound of all the screams from the residence, even Bendy is gonna have a huge nightmare dealing with [[BrokenBase Cheese]]. So finally, the KarmaHoudini will finally get his LaserGuidedKarma at last. And hopefully, [[AndtheFandomRejoiced people will finally be relieved Karma hit Bendy very hard]].

[[WMG: Foster's is located in Florida]]

Let's review, adopting fully mature (and often VERY old) sentient beings without consent of said being is both very common, and considered a GOOD thing. The inverse of that, dumping a young one from the house is also just as normal as well. You rarely see the imaginaries outside of the House with any kind of work, we only see Coca doing a few odd jobs in a Mall for one episode. That suggest that they are very least second class citizens, not really considered human but closer to entertainment for children. It doesn't help that kind of what they are.

[[WMG: Mac will grow up to become [[DeathNote Kira]].]]

This is probably already addressed in the Fosters It Just Bugs me page but nearly all of the imaginary friends appear totally to be the opposite of anything any RealLife child would ever want. Instead of being cool, fun, and nice their Boreish, excessively nonsensical, totally anti-social and at times cruel. The only possible explanation for all of this is that nearly everyone that exists in the fosters universe is clinically insane but in the same way as characters in AliceInWonderland are insane. as all of their thoughts and dreams appear to come true.

[[WMG: Foster's Home itself is an alternate universe parallel to [[{{Psychonauts}} Thorney Towers]].]]

...[[http://v2.razputin.net/content/showimage/index.php@showimage=content%252Fmultimedia%252Fimages%252Fcharacters%252Ffred%252F002.jpg.html Just]] [[http://v2.razputin.net/content/showimage/index.php@showimage=content%252Fmultimedia%252Fimages%252Fcharacters%252Fgloria%252F001.jpg.html an]] [[http://v2.razputin.net/content/showimage/index.php@showimage=content%252Fmultimedia%252Fimages%252Fcharacters%252Fedgar%252F001.jpg.html impulse]], really. Then again, it could even be Thorney Towers itself [[AllJustADream from a patient's (Mac's?) exaggerated point of view]]. In ''{{Psychonauts}}'' Fred is often called a pushover, Gloria has a tendency to [[CloudCuckoolander not make much clear sense]], Edgar is a GentleGiant who is ([[BerserkButton generally]]) more avoidant than confrontational...

* Mac is [[CuteShotaroBoy too young]] to be a suitor of Frankie's.
** ''Every'' guy under 30 is a CuteShotaroBoy to Madame Foster.

[[WMG: In the Foster's universe, humans reproduce by imagining their children.]]

[[WMG: Imaginary friends are actually [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Stands]].]]

[[WMG: Madame Foster is a [[WMG/TimeLord Time Lady]] and Foster's Home is her TARDIS.]]
She has a kooky but very clever personality, and her house is bigger on the inside. ''HowDidWeMissThisOne?!?''

[[WMG:Madam Foster is grooming Mac to be her successor.]]
While Frankie would be the logical choice as her grandchild/heir, it could be that much as Frankie loves Foster's, she doesn't want to actually own/run it. Mac, on the other hand, has some parallels with Madam Foster, such as remaining loyal to their Imaginary Friends well after needing them around.
