Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is a great show. I remember watching a few episodes back in 2005, and I liked it.

This is one of the few kids shows that I really like. It kind of has the same charm and imagination that Thomas has. And its funny.

I like this show, too. But one episode I really don't like is "Foster's Goes to Europe" due to the fact that the gang don't actually go to Europe, and the ending only made it worse. On the plus side, Eurotrish, the imaginary friend who wanted to go to Europe, got to go.

I've seen this show a few times then and now, Bloo is kinda funny in a way, and pretty creative. Eguardo the purple guy though. he's cool.

I really have no interest in this show. But it is funny. Yes, I watch Cartoon Network, but for Pokemon.

I've watched a few episodes of this show, and I really don't see why it's so popular. It's not great compared to other modern kids' shows. I find most of the attempts at humour very annoying, and the only characters I actually like are the red-haired human girl (Frankie or something, isn't it?) and the tall red guy with one arm. I can't stand Mac's older brother or that annoying guy who says "I like cheese" and stuff. Particularly the cheese guy. Although bobwinkle007, I really don't see how this show is anything like Thomas, in terms of style or anything. If the show had more mature writing, I could like it. After all, it is a unique concept, and some of the characters are likeable. And it's done in flash, woo!

One episode I do like is "Go Goo Go" because I think Goo is a great character. I also thought it funny when Frankie and Mr. Herriman were convinced that Goo was Mac's girlfriend. And quite frankly, I think the ending to that episode was way better than the one in "Foster's Goes to Europe".

I saw that the Foster's gang had their own float in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Wilt, Coco, Bloo and Eduardo were singing the Beatles' "With a Little Help From My Friends", and as always, Bloo was out of key. ;D

I have another episode to talk about: Bloo is planning a surprise party for Mac, and wants the others to help him with it. However, Mac is worried because of previous mishaps when Bloo threw him a surprise party and ended up humiliating him. Oh dear. We can't have that now, can we? Anyways, Mac is trying hard to prevent from getting embarrassed again. Goo enters the door with a present and tells Mac about Artie, one of her creations. Mac starts getting more and more worried. So he decides to take drastic action. Mac crashes his party by popping balloons. Wilt and Eduardo then fight and tear down the rest of the decorations. Mac also tries tying Coco and Goo together with scotch tape, and then puts Bloo in with them. Mac, learning that another surprise party is going on, decides to crash that one, too, only to realize that the party was for Goo's creation, Artie. Everybody scolds Mac for his actions, which makes him feel very bad for what he had done... so bad that he and Bloo throw another surprise party for Artie. Bloo persuades Mac into dressing as a clown. Artie and everyone else laugh when "Maco the clown" does silly things. Mac wants to know what Artie thinks; and Artie says "I only have one thing to say..." Artie then reveals to be Madame Foster in disguise, and everyone laughs at Mac. He, yet again, got embarrassed by Bloo; or more rather, Bloo tricked Mac into embarrassing himself.
Personally, I disliked the ending as it was another one of those types of endings that wants us to think that a certain main character's direct misfortunes are funny. Also, Bloo was portrayed as being as cunning, and intelligent, as Megan Parker from "Drake & Josh". In the words of one of my friends, "he was too smart for his own good". Worse still, Wilt and Frankie, two of my favorite characters, were just as sadistic to Mac as the rest of the other characters in Foster's. It reminded me strongly of the SpongeBob episode, "The Great Snail Race", which ended (only in that case, it was the very end) with Sandy coming in to kick SpongeBob out of the stadium, and then yell "That's for Yesterday, SquarePants!" Characters that are very likable do something mean to someone at the end of an episode that can only make them less likable in the point of view of numerous people, including myself. The main difference is that Frankie and Wilt were part of this episode's main plot, whereas Sandy's appearance in "Snail Race" was one that was solely so she could come in at the end and do what she did (albeit with an earlier appearance saying that she was going to do it). The only good thing about it was that Eduardo was never in on any of the scheming. "I just go they tell me to," he said. But I have one thing - or should I say three things - to say about what I really think of the general ending: Disgraceful! Disgusting! Despicable!

I haven't seen that episode and I'm glad I didn't either. Granted, "Foster's" is a great show and one of the most imaginatve created, but the episodes to tend to be hit/miss, espicially in their attempts to be original and unexpected. But being sadistic and cruel does not equal good or original comedy. Still, when they get an episode right, they get it right. Chapters like " Store Wars", " Phone Home" and " World Wide Wabbit" are hilarious and end on a good note that everyone can enjoy. Recently, they've released a series of Foster Shorts on YouTube, which last for about 2 minutes, but make fantastic use of the time without stretching it out or packing in too many gags. This is my all-time personal fave: Petrified Pet

A few other hilarious episodes are Partying is Such Sweet Soiree and Squeeze the Day. The latter of which had me in fits of laughter by the end when Mac and Bloo frantically try to salvage the last five minutes of their day before everyone comes back. OF course I was also laughing at their maniacal running around, doing various things we'd never see them do with Frankie and Herriman, and even the famous, "It's hot in Topeka!" sequence.

Fosters home is great considering all of the recent tv shows channels will put on nowadays. Especially most of the Goo and Cheese episodes

*BUMP* I saw tonight's new episode and I quite liked it. There was some references to previous episodes, but... ...one of them was "Foster's Goes to Europe". I really wish that episode would be considered non-canon more than ever now.
