Princess of Town

Should there be a note (say in a Fun Facts section) that the KOT was mentioned as Marzipan's father, as per fun fact in Marzipan, although that is clearly no longer the case? Anagrammarian 20:48, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

  • I think so. Makes sense --Ju Ju Master 19:45, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Done, although if this section should be called something other than Fun Fact (singular for now?), please feel free to change. Also reworded Fun Fact on Marzipan to match. Anagrammarian 02:50, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Edga

How about the whole, Edger, Edger jr, Edger's baby's daddy? Should that have a place here? I R F 02:54, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Strond Dad?

Should we mention the museum fan stuff picture of "Strong Dad as portrayed by Kevin Spacey?" :Mila 18:18, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Even though it's a fan creation, I don't see why not... --DorianGray

Reasoning

In my opinion, the reasoning behind not showing parents is because that means new main characters will have to be introduced into the Homestar Runner series, which would severly disrupt the formula for the toons. Parents would appear like a "jumping the shark"-type bit, and thus decrease the quality of the series (Rugrats ultimately was ruined after all those new characters were introduced). References to parents are acceptible, because it proves that they do have parents, but are not important enough to become main characters. Just a thought. --ThomasO 11:40, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Seconded. The Big Eye 16:33, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
