General Trivia[]

  • Lumpy is very similar to Homer Simpson from The Simpsons, as both of them are known for their stupidity, both have held many occupations, both have been shown to eat a lot, and Lumpy's relationship with Cuddles is somewhat similar to Homer's relationship with Bart. Also, in the episode series Treehouse of Horror, Homer has the most deaths and kills, which is the same for Lumpy's status in Happy Tree Friends.
  • According to his secret information in the "Collect Them All" section is that he even talks to lettuce.
  • Due to having a large amount of appearances in the show, Lumpy nearly has a balanced survival-death ratio, as he dies in about half of his episodes and also survives in about half of his episodes.
  • Lumpy is in one of Flaky's baseball cards in Flaky's Baseball Smoochie.
  • His Season 3 starring pop up is his only pop-up where his eyes aren't crossed to indicate how dumb he is.
  • Nuttin' but the Tooth, Wrath of Con, and Butter Me Up are the only episodes in which Lumpy appears and makes no audible vocal sounds.
  • Lumpy is also a common name for other fictional characters.
  • Lumpy, along with Lifty, Handy, and Cuddles make a cameo appearance as a totem pole in Gundarr, another MondoMedia show.
  • Lumpy has been shown to enjoy eating meat, which is odd since real moose are herbivores. Then again, the characters of Happy Tree Friends are portrayed as mostly human in behavior, which this may be an example of. But real moose have been known to chew on their shed antler skin.
  • Most of the time, Lumpy's mismatched antlers change positions, although there have been occasions where this does not happen. This is mostly due to laziness on the animators' part, similar to how Toothy's teeth change from his usual teeth to the standard buckteeth. This goof is easier to notice when Lumpy is looking back and forth.
  • Lumpy has spoken English more than any other character in the show.
  • Lumpy is the third character to come back to life after dying in an episode, as he died in Havin' A Ball and appeared later in Wheelin' and Dealin'.
  • Throughout the entire series, Lumpy is always seen with one of his antlers up and the other antler down. There were only two instances where both of Lumpy's antlers were pointing at the same direction, one was in From A to Zoo and the other one was in Concrete Solution.

    Is it just me or does Lumpy look a little bit strange like that?

  • Lumpy has cursed multiple times in the series. Lumpy said "Shut the fuck up!" in Don't Yank My Chain, "What the hell?" in Hear Today, Gone Tomorrow and "Come on, goddammit!" in Kringle Feast, and can at times be heard saying "What the fuck?".
  • Lumpy may also be based off Goofy from the Mickey Mouse cartoons, as both have similar personalities, voices, and are the tallest of their respective groups. Ski Patrol, which stars Lumpy, also parodies a series of old Goofy shorts.
  • He might be inspired by Bud Budiovitch and Stereo Monovici from Space Goofs, because of their stupidities and height. But it is believed that his design is based on Bullwinkle from The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.
  • He is the only main character in Happy Tree Friends with visible nose but lacks a heart-shaped nose.

  • Lumpy can be seen living in his trailer in You're Bakin' Me Crazy, Stealing the Spotlight, Nuttin' but the Tooth, Blind Date, By The Seat Of Your Pants, Hear Today, Gone Tomorrow, and In Over Your Hedge. But in Aw, Shucks!, Junk in the Trunk and Peas in a Pod, he has different, bigger houses.
  • The Camp Lazlo character Scoutmaster Lumpus may be a reference to Lumpy. Mainly, Lumpy had the position of scoutmaster in Take a Hike and Camp Pokeneyeout.
  • In the "Rocko's Modern Life" episode "Bedfellows", a character looking almost exactly like Lumpy has a car dropped on him. However, this episode was made in 1993, so either this is only a strangely accurate coincidence, or Lumpy is based loosely on that character.
  • In the Second Servings DVD, Lumpy has his own brand of sponge cakes called "Holiday Kringles", which look like Twinkies.
  • The Fall Out Boy music video The Carpal Tunnel of Love shows him to be allergic to the purple flowers that Cuddles is holding in the video.
  • Lumpy has a pet elephant in Junk in the Trunk.
  • According to the Spin Fun Knowin' Ya Pop Corn video in the First Blood DVD, he went to the state senate to sponsor a bill in order to ban parking airplanes near playgrounds, thus saving six lives.
  • Lumpy likes golfing, as is seen in Chew Said a Mouthful and Tongue in Cheek.

Design[]

  • The early version of Lumpy was a dinosaur-like animal (eg. Banjo Frenzy).
  • He is sometimes being mistaken for a deer, due to his antlers. However, his antlers and nose are very different to that of deer, and his two nostrils are very different to that of deer.
  • He appears to have blue eyes in Concrete Solution when looking into a nail gun. In Wishy Washy, however, a close-up of his lifeless body shows his eyes to be intensely green.
  • Although Lumpy and Mime are both deers, Lumpy does not have visible ears, buckteeth or tail. On the other hand, Mime has ears, buckteeth and a tail.
  • Lumpy is one of the blue characters. The other four are Petunia, Sniffles, Splendid and Truffles.
  • He has the most unique design out of all main characters, as he doesn't have any physical traits that the other characters have.
  • Lumpy is the only character to have a head/face that is suppose to either look left or right. He is rarely shown to be facing the camera.

    This is what nightmares are made of.

  • Lumpy is the first character from Happy Tree Friends to wear pants, though they are the same color as his skin.
  • According to the commentary from Spin Fun Knowin' Ya, Lumpy's original antlers were bigger and normal, but the crew decided that he looked too much like Bullwinkle (whom he is based off), so his antlers were made smaller and turned in different directions.
  • Lumpy wears an invisible T-shirt that blends in with his skin. When he takes it off, he can be seen with a tan line, nipples, buttocks, and genitals. He accidentally flashes Giggles in both You're Bakin' Me Crazy and Let It Slide.
  • While most of the characters have visible ears, Lumpy has inner ear holes, as is evident in Hear Today, Gone Tomorrow.
  • Lumpy often shaves his face, even though he physically does not have a beard. However, in the episode Double Whammy Part I he had a mustache while he worked as Flippy's psychiatrist. From this, it can be assumed that his natural hair color is black. This is proven false as he had a white beard in Just Be Claus.
  • He has chest hair in Ski Patrol, making him and Disco Bear the only characters with chest hair.

  • He is the only character apart from Lammy and Mr. Pickels who does not appear with mitten hands. He always has fingers.
  • Lumpy does not have a tail, which is odd as real moose have tails (though tiny stubby ones).
  • Lumpy's mouth has been known to move from below his snout to the tip of his snout. According to Kenn Navarro, this is done mostly to get a better read on his expressions, and partly for cartoonish value.
  • Despite Lumpy appearing to not be shown not completely clothed, he is fully clothed in several episodes.
    • This is likely due to the fact as revealed in certain episodes such as You're Bakin' Me Crazy, he actually wears a blue shirt and a pair of blue pants.
