User blog comment:AdamISAWESOME/Best starring role for EACH character?/@comment-27169958-20151211151857

Cuddles: In a Jam. We see more from Cuddles' personlaity and interests. We've never seen him play the guitar before! We've never seen his fear of needles! We've never seen how far he can go just to reach his goals! His character is that he's more dangerous and rebellious under his cutesy, squeaky-voiced, bunny slipper-wearing exteriour, and In a Jam shows this best.

Giggles: Dunce Upon a Time, hands down. Giggles has always been the girly girl who has to be saved, then we get this episode. She failed miserably with her heroics, but it was still awesome to watch her conquer Giant Lumpy and try to save everyone else! Also, seeing her whacking with an axe - go, Giggles!

Toothy: Class Act is one of my favourite pre-TV series episodes, it was heartwarming, tearjerking, hilarious and showed that Toothy can have a... GAAASP! Personality! This little guy just managed to bring most of the main characters and many generic tree friends together, despite their differences and injuries. How? With one song! I don't care who started the chaos. In the end, they all joined hands and sang together before they all died. All of them. Splendid, Fliqpy, Cro - all of them are dead. Another reason to love this episode.

Lumpy: Tie between Take a Hike and From A to Zoo. I've mentioned before that I like Lumpy at most when he's the caretaker of other tree freinds. We see him desperately trying to keep everyone safe and fix his mistakes. He goes to great lengths just to make them happy, or keep them alive.

Petunia: Wishy Washy. Wow, how predictable! Still, this is the episode that turned Petunia into a more layered and memorable character. OCD our of nowhere? Why the hell not? Besides, it's not exactly out of nowhere. It was mentioned before that she took five showers a day. She also has an air freshner around her neck. Her being a neat freak was a natural step in her character evolution.

Handy: Tie between Home is Where The Hurt is and Don't Yank My Chain. Him not caring about others is enough to make me have mixed feelings for this character, no mater how great and interesting are his other traits. Those two episodes show the better of him. He shows he can trust others and care for them, we see him as a hard worker and we feel sorry because of (and laugh at) his misfortune. His three episodes with Petunia are close seconds.

Sniffles: Blast From The Past. An invention of Sniffles? Check. Lack of common sense on his part? Check. This episode must also have been hard to write! It's hilarious, clever, creative, has a shout out to Back to the Future and shows Sniffles go to great lengths just so Lumpy, Cuddles, Giggles and Toothy can stay safe and sound. It also recreated the first official episode, which is awesome. Idol Curiousity is a close second.

Pop & Cub: A Hole Lotta Love. Pop is more frantic then ever in his attempt to save his son and interacts with other characters a bit more. The episode is also hilarious, has many characters and several interactions we rarely see. Close calls are And The Kitchen Sink and Clause For Concern (dat bait and switch tho)

Flaky: Wiggin' it. Again, how predictable! The reason is also predictable - Flaky conquers her fears wonderfully! After throwing up several times, she just goes to the pilot's place and lands the plane. Everyone else were dead, but still - good job, Flaky!

The Mole: Tied between Blind Date and Don't Yank My Chain. In the former he gets his date to activities that require sight in order to enjoy them. That's very kind of him! In the latter we see how much he trusts Handy and his ideas. That's a sweet thing to see.

Disco Bear: Ipso Fatso. One of the episodes that show him struggle with his insecurities and flaws, nice! A chasing scene on a treadmill - funny as hell! Let's not forget about Lumpy trying to avoid stuff on the floor!

Nutty: A Sucker For Love. Nutty went trough different stages of love.... with sugary foods. We actually saw him how he would handle the roles of a boyfriend or a husband... of sugary foods. His imagination went wild there! And I actually got invested with the chocolate box sequence! I still am, every single time I see this episode! I mean... People ship characters, I ship Nutty and the chocolate box! That's it!

Russel: Get Whale Soon. It brings the best of Russel - his cheerful personality, his hysteria and his teamwork! I also feel like this episode is the best at portraying him as a pirate! This is also the first time he interacts with someone. He needs more episodes like this. I mean, yes. He often interacts with characters now, but is want to see more of his hysteria and his early series personality.

Lifty and Shifty: Sea what I found. It has it all - the racoon's teamwork, their greed, their betrayal, their epic failure.

Mime: I would say Whose to flame, as I like it more as an episode, but I'll pick Mime to Five, as I like Mime's starring role there more. We see him struggle with his sportsmanship, we see how much problems he gets himself trough. TThis is the highlight of his character development, we see his funny side and we feel sorry for him. All he wants is a job to pay for that unicycle!

Cro-Marmot: Wipe Out. How often do we see this guy want something and struggle to get it? This is the closest thing to character development he has.

Flippy: That's easy! Double Whammy, part 1 and 2! This is the highlight of his character development. He's not just a golden mine for the show's purpouse. This episode shows best that he's much more! My other reasons are pretty much the same as Adam's so enough about that.

Splendid: His funniest and best episode is See What Develops. Close call is From Hero To Eternity. Both episodes show Splendid's epic failures wonderfully. I like See What Develops more because we also see him trying to live as a normal citizen and keep his hero identity a secret. Also, how often do we see him screw up so hard that Toothy gets mad at him?

Lammy and Mr. Pickels: A bit of a Pickle. It's such a great introduction! We see how fast everything escalated! This girl went in jail in the matter of minutes and it was awesome!

Favourite joined starring roles:

Flippy and Flaky: Without a Hitch. If this episode was ten years older, it would be nothing more than Flaky getting killed by Flippy after she lets him in and he flips out by something. Flippy deviates from his usual formula, Flaky once again wins over her fears and we have plenty of bait and switch! OOoohhh, he killed her! Nope! No, he didn't! It was just in her head! Party Animal is a close second, as we see more about their friendship.

Nutty and Toothy: Nuttin' but the Tooth. How often do we see Nutty siffer from someone else's incompetence that's not caused by Lumpy? How often do we see Toothy combine doing something funny which is linked to his name and shows a bit of his personality?

Lumpy and Flippy: I would love to say Hear Today, Gone Tomorrow, but Flippy doesn't star there. Instead I'll just say Remains to be Seen. I love the fighting scene and the way Fliqpy got defeated. Close second is By the seat of your Pants.

Handy and Giggles: Home is where the Hurt is. I talked about it above.

Handy and The Mole: Don't Yank My Chain. I talked about it above.
