Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is one of the best cartoons that has come around in a very long time!  Granted, I am a bit older than the average age for children and teens who enjoy cartoons but I have to admit, this particular cartoon caught my attention and I cannot pull away!  Although this show has been on the air since 2004, I actually sat through an episode earlier this summer and was hooked.  It has some of the funniest humor and references which make me believe this show was not created completely for kids but for adults alike.

The first thing I really liked about this show was the premise behind it.  Basically, when a child creates an imginary friend in their imagination, they actually become real.  When the child grows up and doesn't need an imaginary friend anymore, they are sent to Foster's home where Madame Foster is the caretaker and brings in all the "friends" and takes care of them.  

Now, that background information alone was enough to entice me to find out what in the world this show was about.  It was completely different than any other cartoon on television and I figured if my 18-year-old brother was suggesting I check it out, you know it's got to be good.  

The few episodes I've seen have had some references to Star Wars, Orlando Bloom and the Ice Capades.  The humor is so offbeat it's good!  Bloo's character is so undeniably inappropriate, you can't help but laugh!  This show has began to get so popular, it has launched an online game which is accessible by visiting CartoonNetwork.com and clicking on the Big Fat Awesome House Party link.  In this game, you create your own imaginary friend and get to name him.  After you've created your own friend, you're given daily chores to do before you can play the mini-games in the game room.  

Takeaways
  • Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends is shown in almost every language worldwide.
  • Foster's has racked up three emmy awards so far.
  • The creator of Foster's is also the creator of Power Puff Girls.
Did You Know?
The inspiration for this show came to Craig McCracken when he and his wife adopted dogs from a shelter and wondered what their lives were before they got them.
