Greg the Bunny | comment |
Greg the Bunny was a Sitcom set in a world where humans and puppets coexist as sentient races and interact freely. Greg the Bunny is the starring puppet of Sweetknuckle Junction, an Alternate Company Equivalent to Sesame Street; the show focuses on various backstage shenanigans. In this case, Greg and the others in the cast are much less innocent offstage than on, contrasting with both The Muppet Show and other puppet shows fully on the cynical end of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism. (The series was something like Who Framed Roger Rabbit.)Extra drama comes from the fact that Greg is a relative newcomer to the cast, having replaced another rabbit because he was much cuter.Despite the relative cynicism, this show did have heartwarming moments and good spoofs thereof.This show was greatly respected by critics but didn't get enough of an audience. It aired for one season (2002) on FOX and two (2005–06) on IFC. Greg and the crew returned in MTV's Warren the Ape, which aired for one season in 2010. | |

Greg the Bunny / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: Several, the most obvious being Count Blah, a parody of the Count from Sesame Street (whom Blah accuses of stealing his act and his chance to be a regular on Sesame Street). In the first episode Alison lampshades Greg's parallel role on Sweetknuckle Junction to Elmo's on Sesame Street, hoping to garner similar appeal when hiring him. Susan the Monster is a gender-flipped parody of Sweetums from The Muppet Show, down to having a similar voice despite being female. | |

Greg the Bunny / int_335ac42e | comment |
Out of Order: There was a break in production between the sixth and seventh episodes produced, at which point changes were made (most notably changing Greg's eyes), and yet the show was broadcast out of order, so in one episode Greg will have button eyes, and in the next he'll have much different eyes. | |

Greg the Bunny / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: It's buried in there, but the actor for Junction Jack has his nice points - in fact, he can act like a mentor for Greg at points. In one episode, Allison refuses to let Jack star in a movie that would put his character in a bad light. Allison then gets stalked. After she learns she is being stalked by somebody who is not Jack, Jack shows up and stops him, before revealing that the reason he knew she was in trouble was because he actually was stalking her. Though it is possible he only saved her in the hopes that she would approve of him being in that movie. | |

Disproportionate Retribution: When Warren thinks Allison has rejected his request to work Shakespeare into the show, he pees in her car. Warren even attacked a little girl just because she compared him to a chocolate cake with eyes and even asked why he’s so fat. Subverted in another episode, in which Allison refuses to approve of Jack starring in a movie that would make his role on the show look bad, and she starts getting stalked by who she thinks is Jack. It ends up being a songwriter who Gil fired but put the blame on her... And she ends up being saved by Jack, who reveals that he actually WAS stalking her, which is how he knew to stop him. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
Greg the Bunny / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Greg the Bunny mentions in the first episode that puppets ("Fabricated-Americans") have trouble finding work and dating outside of their species because of their appearance. In fact, a lot of episodes (particularly "Sock Like Me" and "Greg Gets Puppish" on the FOX series) hammer this point home. | |

For the first six episodes, Tardy was often only in one scene, but during the second half of production, he's used a lot more. | |

Hypocritical Humor: When a mediator asks Jimmy to name a stereotype about puppets, he says "You all like tartar sauce," which all of the puppets object to... before every single one admits that they do. As a Brick Joke, the fake PSA for puppet-human acceptance at the end of that episode gives a website that mentions this as well. | |

Loud of War: When Jimmy refuses to use his connections to help Greg get a job on the set of Sweetknuckle Junction, Greg says, "Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy" incessantly until Jimmy relents. | |

Show Within a Show: Sweetknuckle Junction. We don't see much of it, but we're not missing much; it's just a saccharine kiddie show. | |

Nice Guy | |
Greg the Bunny / int_c5249b29 | comment |
Nice Guy: Greg, while not as sweet and innocent as his Sweetknuckle Junction on-screen persona, is still the nicest, least cynical person on the show, bordering on Wide-Eyed Idealist at times. Dottie is also very sweet-natured. In the pilot episode she borders on Extreme Doormat, but she gets better. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: By the truckload, but most notable is the Reservoir Dogs bit in "The Singing Mailman". | |

Freudian Excuse | |
Greg the Bunny / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Junction Jack's mild anti-puppet prejudice comes from his mother running out on his father and abandoning him for another man... who was a puppet. Notably, the character in question acts like it's an explanation but not a justification. | |

Paste Eater: Tardy the Turtle has eaten everything from crayons, to drumsticks (the musical kind), to paintballs. Said quote is a Shout-Out to an Urban Legend about green M&Ms. | |

Greg the Bunny / int_d80a8085 | comment |
Younger and Hipper: Alison wants to make Sweetknuckle Junction this, and part of her reason for hiring Greg is to "appeal to a younger audience." Gil points out that the show's already targeted at four-year-olds. | |

The Scapegoat | |
Greg the Bunny / int_dc8ba6d5 | comment |
Subverted in another episode, in which Allison refuses to approve of Jack starring in a movie that would make his role on the show look bad, and she starts getting stalked by who she thinks is Jack. It ends up being a songwriter who Gil fired but put the blame on her... And she ends up being saved by Jack, who reveals that he actually WAS stalking her, which is how he knew to stop him. | |

Chekhov's Gunman | |
Greg the Bunny / int_dcbe8a6e | comment |
Chekhov's Gunman: In one episode, Gil tells a songwriter that Allison had him fire him (in actuality, Gil hated the song). This leads to that songwriter stalking Allison, who had thought Jack was stalking her over not allowing him to appear in a movie that would damage the shows reputation. | |

Manchild: Dottie's public persona; Her actual personality bounces between this and an average girl frustrated by Typecasting due to uneven characterization. | |

The Ditz: Tardy the Turtle. So much so that you can say Tardy the Turtle's non sequiturs in Ralph Wiggum's voice and it wouldn't seem out of character. | |

Jerkass: Warren, who does get the occasional Pet the Dog moment, and who may have a Hidden Heart of Gold somewhere in there... but you'd have to spend some time actually looking for that heart of gold. Mostly he's just completely self-centered and more than a little spiteful. | |
