Week 6, 2011
The Brothers Strong is the collective term for the three brothers, Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and Strong Sad. The eldest of the brothers is Strong Mad, followed by Strong Bad, then Strong Sad. According to Strong Bad in the email flashback, The Cheat was taken in by The Brothers Strong when he was found in an egg filled with fish sticks. The Strong Brothers' assumed surname is "Strong", since it is common to each of them. Even though the Homestar Runner body of work is an American-based cartoon, their family name is spoken before the individual's given name, a naming convention mistakenly labeled the Eastern order. The nationality of the brothers is fairly ambiguous. Although Strong Bad often has a faint Mexican accent, his brothers have no sign of one. In Marshmallow's Last Stand and the Old Characters Page, the Brothers Strong are said to be from a place called "Parts Unknown". In secret recipes, Strong Bad describes his childhood life in "Bumdumbourge" (a country near "Totalslava"), although this information is most likely false. Despite all this, it has been suggested numerous times that the brothers have lived in their current house in Free Country, USA throughout their lives (or at least since their childhood). (more)...
Week 5, 2011
It's that time of year again, when the American Football Championship Game takes place. It's time for the Halftime Entertainment and Delight... though it's not who you may expect. sloshy has been selected to perform for halftime this year. Even the announcer is surprised by this. In the basement of the Brothers Strong, Strong Sad is seen enjoying the song sloshy sings, which consists of the repeated line "American Football Championship Game" and of the members talking about how the lead singer has not bet any money on the game. At the end of the song, one of the members of sloshy states that they played soccer in high school. (more...) watch

Minor characters are regularly created in Teen Girl Squad, and only make cameo appearances. Some exist only for the purpose of hurting one of the girls. Usually they are never seen again, but in the 10th Issue special, many of these characters made cameo appearances at The Ugly One's Sweet Someteen Birthday Bash. This page is a documentation of all minor characters seen in Teen Girl Squad cartoons.
Week 3, 2011
In retirement, the 159th Strong Bad Email, released on Monday, October 2, 2006 and Tuesday, October 3, 2006, is a two-part email where Strong Bad's beloved computer is lappynapped! Strong Bad, in his usual humorous ways, is distraught by this travesty. One can hardly recall a day when Strong Bad didn't have his precious computer in his possession. The email was originally split into two parts. In the first part Strong Bad is depressed. He's in a sad, broken state as he witnesses Marshie attempt to make a profit from his misfortune. As he runs out of antidepressant, he slinks off to Bubs' Concession Stand. Bubs is nowhere to be found. As Strong Bad searches for him, he notices a peculiar sight on the side of the window. The kidnappers are revealed as Strong Bad's old computers, Tandy and Compy. Strong Bad is forced to check one more email with each of them. He manages to destroy the Tandy via deletion. In part two, he takes on the Compy, who ends up being eaten by House-Mouth. In the end, Strong Bad gets his computer back and joins The Paper for an order of hushpuppies. (more...) watch
Week 2, 2011
In the Holiday Toon Trogday 08, released Monday, January 14, 2008, Strong Bad honors the fifth birthday of that famous dragon... only it's not what you may expect. Instead of honoring the dragon that most people expected Strong Bad to celebrate, instead he pushes Trogdor aside to make way for a new dragon that was scrapped early on in the process. While Trogdor himself has a heavy metal tune with screaming lyrics and guitars, The S is for Sucks has a playful, laid-back alphabet song that Strong Bad himself admits he prefers. Trogdor is angered by Strong Bad's preference and actually leans against the window of the house Strong Bad was in and roars, blurring the line between the fiction or lack thereof of Trogdor's existence in Free Country, USA. Strong Bad then proceeds to sing a heavy metal version of The S is for Sucks, apparently to keep himself safe from Trogdor's unbridled rage. (more...) watch
Week 1, 2011
Cheatball is the 20X6 version of The Cheat. He first appears in the Scrolling Shooter Games Menu. His eyes bear a resemblance to the eyes of "Holy-crap-adorable The Cheat" from lady...ing and his facebone has no pointy end, similar to the "cute, fluffy The Cheat" in lady fan. The Cheatball's mouth , unlike other 20X6 characters' mouths, stays small when speaking, and when closed. Cheatball also appeared in trading cards as a trading card character, in which he has a round ball-like body with no visible arms or legs, and seems to speak only by saying his name, much like a Pokémon character. He uses an attack called "Poison Rain Vornado", which is basically a small explosion of green smoke. In the DVD commentary for japanese cartoon, The Brothers Chaps point out that the spaceship seen in the email was originally going to be the 20X6 version of The Cheat, and mulled over whether to keep it that way.
