There should be an option for Senor Cardgage.

I wouldn't pick him even if he was there, but he's been on a lot more often than other secondary characters recently, so some people might want to pick him...

Yeah I agree with you guys too! Strong Bad is really cool and all but I wish we could see more of Homestar instead. Maybe he could like take over some emails or something this summer!

Yeah, that s so true. I mean, focussing a little more on Bubs or Coach Z or Marzipap would be so much better.

I agree also, too. Strong Bad is super great (on a scale of one to awesome, no less), but he's...ubiquitous. Let's see more Homestar and while we're at it, let's give the rest a chance as well, especially Pom Pom and other neglected ones. I want one toon, just one, that Strong Bad doesn't appear in, in any way, shape, form, or flavor. And not some kinda "where's Strong Bad" toon. Just a toon where Strong Bad is not around, but the rest of the characters are.

Strong Bad, because he's getting overused. He's taking over the site and as much as I like 'im, that just ain't gravy. That's why I liked Bug in Mouth, since it was mostly Homestar.

I think this poll was already done and Strong Bad won by a landslide, but I'm not sure if he's overused except in comparison to Homestar (the only character really comparable to SB in terms of having star power), because like it or not, most people go to the site for Strong Bad E-mails, not toons featuring other characters. And I think every other main character is underused (I'll even say this for the KOT and The Poopsmith, the two characters I don't like very much), and I don't want to vote for SB, so I can't vote here.

EDIT: Oh wait - actually I CAN vote, since I didn't see Stinkoman on this poll the first time. I really like the guy and all, but I'm not sure he of all characters deserves the most developed game on the site by far.

Dark Grapefruit, did you just quote that because you wanted to say the same thing?

Yeah, I voted for Strong Sad. He's so boring. Even though he has a funny alternative humor, I would rather see more Pom-Pom or Sterrance. I think that SB hasn't comletely taken over the site.

Pom Pom, yes, Sterrance, no. No offense, Sterrance was funny the first time, but he doesn't seem to be a reusable character. Pom Pom has recently fallen into a running gag where he, along with the KOT, the Poopsmith, and Homsar are more or less directly referred to as underused and neglected characters; they all hang out together.

So true. Even though Pom Pom wasn't used a whole bunch throughout the entire Homestar saga, now he is a member of what is formally called the Left Out Characters' Support Group. I'm also sort of surprised he would be hanging out with the KOT or Homsar anyways, I mean he's pretty popular with the ladies and is now hanging out with the "dorks" of FCUSA! Pom Pom, Homestar's best friend, one of the best charecters, who has done so much for the cartoon and the other charecters, is now in the Left Out Characters' Support Group. Is this fair?

Yeah the problem with SB is that his emails are the only thing that's expected averynow and then. A toon comes, weee, but an email comes, ah another email..you know..like that..But in the toons, hoestar is the main character again and we're automatically supposed to switch to supporting homestar. And then right back to SB. But i don't think bubs, coach z, or marzi'pap' should be more'd..because they're the kind of..behind the scenes guys, yet still main characters. I think they're just there to give the site backup when SB and HR can't fill the spot. ANd they do a great job...or atleast TBC does a great job of making them do a great job...but i definately think the KOT should just...go away...He provides nothing..they should just switch him with a new character...So 'the rich man' feeling that you get when the KOT comes up can still be there, but not as pointless...you get my drift..and this makes my post count oficially 3 digits...um..yeah cause it was..unofficial before, of course.

Agreed on all counts. I think the KOT is the most underrused, he could be thrown into a lot of situations.

It sometimes seems like a lot of the parts of the site that were prevalent before are kinda forgotten now. The coach being a coach, Homestar an athlete, Homestar and Marzipan being together, Pom Pom being H*'s best friend, the KOT being... the KOT. I love the SBEmails much as anyone, but I sometimes think TBC painted themselves into a corner by deciding to make it a weekly feature, since that's a full time job all by itself.

Definitely Homsar, I hope he fades into nothingness.

I agree completely. Lest we forget the "Forgotten Characters Dinner"...

Well, think of it this way - at least by putting Pom Pom at that dinner, TBC are acknowledging that they're well aware of his 'forgotten character' status. But then, that toon was quite awhile ago, and he hasn't really had a major role since then I don't think, so maybe they really are pushing him off to the side more. :(

I voted for Strong Bad. Yeah. Original. I know. I agree that the brothers Chaps seriously need to focus a bit more on other characters. They've been getting better at it (I at least remember what pom pom looks like now), but the other characters could stand some more spot light. I personally would rather see a new short every week instead of a new Strong Bad email.

well..now that i think of it, if strong bad was lessr'd, then homestar would be less of fun time. I don't think there should be less of strong bad, just less of the emails. As for pompom and the other 'forgotten' characters, i think they're viewing status should remain as is. Besides the KOT..he just needs to go away. However there should be more pompom. I think his problem is that his personality needs to be more defined. Like in his toons, TBC tried to make him like..some gangster or street balloon, but in others he's just regular. I think his presence is funny, but he they need to reveal more of his traits and stuff. And coach Z does not need to go way, he's fine...just dandy..you know nothing.
