#pointless characters

I don't know anyone who likes the last 2 seasons of the cartoon 'Fairly Odd Parents', or even know it lasted so long. My guess is that people stopped watching it because it kept adding new characters; while old ones were reduced to background characters.

I recall YouTuber Mr Enter jokingly said that the show would last long enough to add a rapping shark into the cast. Believe it or not, there was a rapping animal character in its last season. It may not be a shark, and it's not called Cletus; but it's pretty damn close.

Had the show lasted any longer, I guarantee this hedgehog would've become more prominent.

Fairly Odd Parents belongs to it's respected owners and creators.

What purpose do these two even serve from a narrative standpoint?

Oh, what’s that you say? They’re only a setup for a joke in one scene, only used for cute merch, and one of them dies in the last episode to try and bring unnecessary sympathy?

If this was your answer, then you are...

CORRECT!

Razzle and Dazzle do not DO anything. They don’t add anything to the story, we don’t ever see them around the hotel, and I don’t know if it’s just me, but I can’t even tell them apart most of the time.

What relevance to they have to Charlie, when their roles as “protectors” is mentioned once and never again? Wasted potential. They could have been low ranking demons Charlie took in to SHOW her kindness instead of having it spoon fed to us by Valorie.

They could have been notable servants from the castle to showcase how, even though the princess has good intentions, she is still a demon princess who slowly realizes their use beyond simple servants.

Hell, they could have been pets that don’t do anything, like Kiki or whatever the cat’s name is that come and go, but why have one of them die pointlessly and then gloss it over with the final song of the season?

Sorry for the rant, this just really bothers me!

Aside from Shower Harvey and the trifecta of uninspiring 6B Liar Love Interests - who is the most pointless PLL supporting character of all time?

Okay but what was the point of Sam?

Why did they add the black guy to ghostbusters?

As a black dude I have no problem with a brother on the busters But from a writing perspective he held absolutely no purpose to plot or anything Everything he did could've been done by another character, and his potential role as buster noobie to provide insight to confusing terminology presented by the scientists was filled by fucking Bill Murray Why am I just NOTICING HIS USELESSNESS NOW
