Additional music was composed by Venable and Jennifer Kes Remington. Mac – A bright, and imaginative 8-year-old boy who is Bloo's creator and best friend. Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends became one of Cartoon Network's most successful original series and received critical acclaim and industry accolades, including 5 Annie Awards and 7 Emmy Awards, winning a total of 12 awards out of 35 nominations. It has since been named by Entertainment Weekly as one of the best Cartoon Network shows and by IGN in their list of best animated series at number 85.
Now it us up to Peas to save the day by figuring out a way to get the front door open. A toy box appears at the front door of Foster's and Frankie is ordered to take it to the attic. When she looks inside the box, she gets sent to a strange world which has an imaginary friend that does whatever she wants.
Season 2, Episode 9: Beat With a Schtick
Sometimes the imaginary friends strongly resemble their creators as shown in Good Wilt Hunting, but they seem to also represent something their creator lacks. For example, Wilt was created by Jordan Michaels for the purpose of teaching him to play basketball, though in reality he had been created to teach Jordan how to be a better person. In Eduardo's case, his creator Nina created him to scare away the neighborhood bullies and crooks but be kind and be able to help take care of her baby brother along with someone she could play with.
Little do they know that it's just Bloo, who is ghostly white and snot-ridden with a cold. Now, anything that keeps her away from Bloo must be removed even if it's his best friend, Mac. During the credits scene of the last episode, the viewer can read out the words “Thanks for watching” with Craig and Lauren’s signatures below it. The note also served as the signing-off note of the two as they left Cartoon Network after that episode. Wilt’s personality, being that kind of athletic and into basketball, is reflected in his former owner’s personality, Jordan Michaels. If that name sounds a bell, then it surely is, as it is a reference to Michael Jordan, a real-life basketball player.
Season 1, Episode 5: The Trouble With Scribbles
Nina also states that he seems to have been created from her subconscious in order to help teach her how to defend herself and others, a lesson she didn't realize until she got older. Wilt – A very tall, friendly and incredibly nice red-colored friend with only a right arm and a crooked left eye-stalk. His overtly passive demeanor is often taken advantage of by the other imaginary friends. He is a basketball player and fan, and is the former imaginary friend of Jordan Michaels .
That's why Madame Foster started Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. This focuses on Madame Foster's house and its inhabitants waiting to be reunited or adopted by kids. There was a character in the show named Abraham Lincoln Pen who looked like a pen. He could be remembered as someone who made large profits by selling imaginary friends in a bidding similar to the auction of slaves centuries ago. This is in contrast morally to the true Abraham Lincoln, who sought to abolish slavery completely. Other than in-house items such as Cartoon Network's internet shop (T-Shirts, a Bloo plush, etc.), there has not been much as far as major products.

Despite all this, he still has a good heart and apologizes for his wrongdoings. Bloo loves paddle balls, even though he typically cannot make the ball hit the paddle. Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends received many industry accolades. The series received 12 awards out of a total of 35 nominations. At the Annie Awards, the show received a total of 20 nominations from 2004 to 2009, and won 5, including Best Animated Television Production in 2007.
Some, like Ivan, were created to help their child (Ivan's creator Stevie is blind so Ivan was imagined to be his eyes). Imaginary friends seem to be mostly companions for children when they are young and it is the trend to abandon an imaginary friend and put them up for adoption once a child is considered too old to own one anymore. Despite this, there are a few imaginary friends who remain lifelong friends with their creators, the most notable examples being Mac and Bloo and Madame Foster and Mr. Herriman. Unfortunately for them, the children eventually outgrow them around ages 7–8.
Season 2, Episode 6: Frankie My Dear...
Collette Sunderman was the casting and recording director for the show. Sean Marquette was cast as Mac, and Keith Ferguson was cast as Bloo. The Powerpuff Girls voice actors Tom Kane, Tom Kenny and Tara Strong were cast in Foster's as Mr. Herriman, Eduardo and Terrence, respectively.
Most of the episode has a pun on a real word, name or others. Goo , a talkative young girl who is highly imaginative and constantly creates new friends, first appearing in "Go Goo Go.". Mr. Herriman – A gray and white elderly anthropomorphic lop ear rabbit friend imagined by Madame Foster who speaks with a British accent. He presents himself as head of business affairs of the house and later as President of the house, and is extremely strict about rules and the maintenance of order in the home. He frequently punishes Bloo for his various misdemeanors and scolds Frankie for her perceived laziness, despite all her hard work.
108Bloo and Mac enjoy playing with each other in the mud, but when it starts raining, they get sick. As Mac is taken home by Frankie, Bloo starts feeling worse and misses out on the scary movie that he and the others planned to watch that night. When Wilt, Eduardo, and Coco begin to believe that the ghost in the movie is real, they mistake a pale Bloo to be the ghost.
110bTerrence has an idea to make up a square friend named Red to beat Bloo up with so he can bully Mac to his heart's content, but the friend he creates is friendly instead of being mean and violent. Since 2004, the show spanned 6 seasons with 79 episodes in total, along with 18 shorts that have aired. Eduardo – A Spanish/Latino guardian friend created by a young girl, Nina Valerosa, to protect her in a dangerous neighborhood. Eduardo is big, hairy violet-purple, has horns, a snout, a pointy demon-like tail and large teeth.
Despite his large size, overwhelming strength, and menacing appearance, Eduardo is docile, timid and scared of almost anything. However, he can be ferocious if angered or when danger befalls his friends. Bloo is often very self-centered, egotistic and narcissistic, as well as having a knack for getting in trouble.
