This is a character who has to do everything according to precise schedule, every day of their lives. You could set your watch by them. This is often portrayed as being unhealthy and/or tied in with some kind of mental condition. Obviously, watching someone go about things the same way for the entire story would get very dull, so the plot generally forces them to break this schedule at some point. Obsessively Organized characters can get very stressed when someone messes with their schedule. See also Clock King, someone who knows not only their own schedule but also everyone else's. Compare Obsessed Are the Listmakers, where a character shows fanaticism towards some other organized list, or Clockwork Prediction, where a character can predict what will happen and when due to knowing someone or something well enough. |

Clockwise: Brian, played by John Cleese, is a strictly punctual headmaster who holds everyone else to his own exacting standards. The whole plot of the movie is how a misunderstanding leads to him missing his train to an important event and how his life slowly unravels as he tries desperately to get there on time. In the end he arrives exactly on time but with his life utterly ruined. Brian was chronically late and disorganized when he was younger, so his insane devotion to punctuality is likely overcompensation. | |

In a Looney Tunes comic book story, Elmer Fudd becomes fanatical about following schedules after reading a self-help book: "I made dinner, then I thwew it out and washed the dishes. I wish I'd wemembered to put 'Eat dinner' on the wist. I'm hungwy, but I'm on schedule!" Bugs Bunny, naturally, exploits Elmer's obsession by switching his schedule with one that requires him to do bizarre and humiliating things. | |

An episode of Corner Gas had Hank come into possession of an electronic organizer, and use it to obsessively plan every minute of the day. While drinking at the bar, he even has an alarm go off every minute or so to tell him when to take a drink. Keep in mind Hank is the perpetually unemployed town layabout who has been seen with a job in maybe three or four episodes out of the whole series. | |

Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends: The episode "Foster's Goes To Europe" had Herriman be one of the many delays to the group setting out on their trip because he insisted on making them a schedule and repeatedly making adjustments for things like time zones. The episode "Let Your Hare Down" (from which the picture above is sourced) opens with Herriman going through his day precisely on schedule, much to the annoyance of the others. |

In The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon (with his OCPD) takes this to the extreme. When one of his three friends doesn't come to their weekly Thai dinner, he is unable to order anything because it would disrupt the routine - an order of dumplings comes with four and he refuses to cut up a dumpling or give someone an extra one. His issues with the main course are more complex. | |

Nero Wolfe might have one of the most famous schedules in all of mystery fiction. Every day almost without fail, he will have breakfast in bed, spend the hours of 9-11am in his greenhouse with his orchids, have lunch at 1.15pm (with plenty of time afterwards for digestion), spend another two hours in the greenhouse between 4-6pm, have dinner at 7.30pm (again with digestion time afterwards), with 11am-1pm, 2-4pm and after dinner given over to reading (or, if he can't get out of it, the trivial little business of solving murders). And if you do anything that will cause him to interrupt this schedule, he'll make you regret it. | |

The Order of the Stick: Redcloak tortures a character who is immune to fear, even though he doesn't expect it to work, purely because it's written on his schedule. He had to pretend to Xykon that it might work, in order to keep them at their current location for long enough for him to do what he wanted, which was not connected to their overall plan. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Sokka A joke during the third season has Sokka constructing a huge, complex, and somewhat squickily detailed schedule so they can arrive in time to carry out the invasion of the Fire Nation during a rare solar eclipse. For some odd reason, the suggestion about eating and going to the bathroom at the same time wasn't well received. "Sokka's Master" raises the valid point that he's nowhere near as useful as the other members of the Gaang (even the animals can at least fly). His usefulness is limited to... making schedules, without which the Gaang are apparently unable to function normally. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Postman from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It gets rather sad on the Final Day after he finishes his normal daily routine. You can find him in the Post Office on his hands and knees, crying. He desperately wants to escape from the doomed town, but he feels as though he can't because "escape from falling moon" is not on the schedule. If you have him deliver the Priority Letter to Kafei's mother (who is also his boss) rather than delivering it yourself, she will permit him to abandon his schedule and leave. Talk to him afterwards and he says "I'm free! Now I can set my own schedule!". A postman in Oracle of Ages needs a clock because he can't follow his schedule without a way to tell time. |

In the Bob's Burgers episode "Mazel-Tina", when the coordinator for Tammy's bat mitzvah quits in the middle of the party, Tina Belcher is forced to take over her duties, the most important of which is to keep the party running on schedule. When Tammy goes missing, Tina continues to make sure the party continues according to the schedule, filling in for Tammy in all the activities and leading the dances, which makes Tina the new center of attention and it quickly goes to her head. When she finally finds Tammy and hears her cries for help, she ignores her, preferring to keep the party on schedule per Tammy's orders, although this is just an excuse to lead the upcoming ladies' choice dance in Tammy's place. | |

For one episode in Danny Phantom, Danny does exactly this. The schedule itself is written on his friend's PDA, but later gets stolen and used by Skulker who's unfortunately stuck with the strict schedule against his will. At least he knows it works! | |

Time Man, one of the two new Robot Masters from Mega Man Powered Up, is obsessed with schedules, to the point where he berates others for being late or slowing him down (ironic, in that his special ability is to slow down time). This is also prevalent in his appearance in the Archie comics series, when he complains about having to revise his plans to rescue Dr. Wily multiple times on account of Oil Man messing him up. | |

The SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Party Pooper Pants" features SpongeBob planning a party that follows a strict schedule in an attempt to keep it from going out of control, saving the actual fun parts for later. Of course, nobody wants to follow the schedule, and they lock SpongeBob out of his house as soon as he leaves. | |

The Postman from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It gets rather sad on the Final Day after he finishes his normal daily routine. You can find him in the Post Office on his hands and knees, crying. He desperately wants to escape from the doomed town, but he feels as though he can't because "escape from falling moon" is not on the schedule. If you have him deliver the Priority Letter to Kafei's mother (who is also his boss) rather than delivering it yourself, she will permit him to abandon his schedule and leave. Talk to him afterwards and he says "I'm free! Now I can set my own schedule!". | |

Twilight Sparkle shows signs of this in Twilight's List, freaking out when everything doesn't go perfectly on the date, believing that anything going wrong will ruin the whole thing. Rainbow Dash helps break her out of it. | |

In Legend of the Galactic Heroes, it is revealed in a backstory episode that Otofried I, the fourth kaiser of the Galactic Empire, was so bound to his daily schedule that he once dismissed an emergency report on a serious accident that caused thousands of casualties, declaring that it is not part of his schedule to attend to such a report. | |

Dorothy in Dumbing of Age likes schedules. In one Patreon strip, Becky tells her she can't schedule everything, and knocks her schedule out of her hand to prove it. Exactly as scheduled. | |

In Friends, Ross exhibits this tendency in "The One Where No One Is Ready". He invited his friends to an event related to his job that he was going to get honors for, but everyone was taking their sweet time and/or taking longer than it was needed to get ready, which caused Ross to get more frantic as time passed; Joey and Chandler were childishly fighting over who got to sit in a chair, Monica was obsessed with finding out if her ex-boyfriend wanted to get back with her, and Phoebe and Rachel took an extremely long time to decide what they wanted to wear. Oh, and Ross' watch stopped working. | |

Alex Rider: The opening scene of Point Blanc is about a slightly paranoid American electronics billionaire named Michael J. Roscoe, who follows the same routine every day as part of the layers of security he's built up around himself. At the same time every morning he goes to his sixty-storey headquarters building and gets on a private lift, which takes him directly to his office on the top floor. Before doing anything else, he drinks a double espresso coffee. Access to him is mediated by hand-picked staff and security guards, so that it can take up to three months to make an appointment with him. Nevertheless, an assassin known as The Gentleman manages to get inside the building and hack Roscoe's lift while he's still in his office, sending it to the top of the shaft and setting up a holographic projection in its place. When it's time for Roscoe to take the elevator back down, he realizes too late that he's stepping into thin air and falls down the empty shaft to his death. | |
