Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends

a good episode for all fans to watch if they love Duchess!

Duchess of Wails is a good episode,but not my favorite.

(That is the one with the slumber party.) Duchess is forced to move into the ApppleBees,Mac's neighbors. But she

was not at all happy about it. She wants her bed,her pillows,her humidifier,her dehumidifier,and a bathtub. She

wants to go home. The noise made Mac's mom want to move!

Reluctantly, Mac and Bloo try to take her back,but noone wants her.annnnnnnnnd then a very very very very very bad thing happens. Terrance wants Duchess to stay at the Appple Bees. Will Mac and Bloo get her home? Great episode.

This was a very funny and interesting episode to say the least. Duches is treated like royalty but she in my view is a real pain in the neck to say the least and she should not be treated like this be the others at the home. The advertising they used to try and get rid of her got me laughing since it was such a funny thing to see how much they don't like her one bit. The family who adopted Duches was really happy and strange to see since i dont believe anyone in real life would be so strange but i am rambling on this was a well written episode and you should see it whenever you can.

This is an episode that shows us how mean and erm.. mean Duchess can be.



The beginning music sounded very duchessy and I also felt sorry for all the friends. It also seemed unusual Madame Foster was catering to Duchess's needs.



Anyway, the Applebees seemed like the Flanders of "The Simpsons". But only thing is, well they seem more idiotic. And also, everything that happens, they perhaps take it in a too optimistic way.I did like how Mac and Bloo sabotaged the Applebee's flat and how they tried to get Duchess back. The fighting scene was like Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. It was incredibly interesting to watch and I liked this episode because it showed the less-jerky Bloo. And it was also good to hear the music from Adoptcalypse Now?. I was filled with happy feelings when Singapore was mentioned. I mean, I live there and its quite rare to hear the country being spoken. (By the way,Singapore got seperated from Malaysia in 1965).



The only thing I disliked was that Terence got away with his crime and that Bloo and Mac had to cater to every of Duchess's needs. They looked soo sad.



Overall, a really tragic episode made exciting.

Duchess is adopted by The Applebees, Mac's neighbors. and Foster's doesn't want to take her back. Terrence told Mac that his mom is thinking about moving to Singapore. Mac and Bloo try to get rid of Duchess. They try to frame Duchess for what they did to their home, but it only makes the Applebees love her more. Mac and Bloo have no choice but to bring her back to Foster's. Terrence decides to help the others back at Foster's Home to keep Duchess away. This episode was funny. I thought I saw an orange imaginary friend who looked alot like Trogdor from Homestar Runner.

Duchess finally gets adopted, but Mac has to move! Why? It's cause Duchess is living next door! Mac and Bloo immediately try to get Duchess back into Foster's, but Terrence, Mac's punkass brother, will stop at nothing to foil their plan, for Terrence wants Mac to be miserable without Bloo. So he runs to foster's to alert everyone about Mac and Bloo's endeavor. When Mac and Bloo get to Foster's, some crazy stuff starts happenin'! As Madame Foster and all the imaginary friends are ready to hit Mac and Bloo with all they've got, it looks like a full scale war is gonna go down! Mac and Bloo are horrified to find out that they knew they were coming, but bravely press on foward. They get pelted with apples and tomatoes, but still are goin' at it, until they finally get KO'ed by a barrage of carrots. I almost cried when I saw Mac and Bloo lying in the mud like that. Afterward, when they both wake up, they tell Madame Foster and everyone about why they had to take Duchess back, and how Mac would have to move if they didn't. Madame Foster takes Duchess back, but only if Mac and Bloo do what Duchess says. I was so pissed at the ending. Mac and Bloo get the short end of the stick when Terrence doesn't get pawned for what he did. I wanted to murder Terrence badly after this episode. Well, at least the rest of the episode was good, like how the battle was a spoof from Lord of the Rings, and how the family who adopted Duchess reminded me very much of the Flanders from the Simpsons, anyway, this was a fun episode to watch.

1. The Applebees are idiots. No matter what Duchess does they don't care, and when Mac and Bloo try nad mess the house up they tihnk the room has gone clean. Weird. They are too crazy and stupid for my liking.



2. Terrence. Why does he have to be in most episodes? He spoils them too, by bullying mac and lying to him.



3. The war. It may be just a little war with carrots and apples but still, they tried to knock Mac and Bloo out. They end up that way and wake up hurt and lying in mud.



4. The ending. Mac and Bloo can stay on one condition. Mac and Bloo have to be Duchess's servanst forever or tehy have to leave. WHAT!? That's stupid. I was sorry for them because they looked so tired and worn out and Duchess forced them to carry her. While their friends are haivng fun they have to do work. That sucks.



The only good things were: The return of Mac's mum, Bloo and his puppets (funny!) and the gang partying! That was cool. And I still think even though the Applebees were crazy, and dumb, it was still funny.



What they should've done was give Duchess plane tickets so she could go to France /Paris the place she wanted to be.

I like this episode because it is funny. I like the part when the family that adopted Duchess were acting dumb and doesn't care about anything that Duchess was doing. I also like the sound effects of this episode. When Bloo and Mac were going to wreck the house and things of the family who adopted Duchess.I really liked that.



My favorite part in that episode is when Mac and Bloo were talking before going in the house of the family who adopted Duchess, because Bloo didn't wear black mask and Bloo was playing with his green mitten that is the partner of his mask. This episode is the best and Funny!

This episode sucked!Not very good as WTAWTAW/EKIB squeakerboxxx Frankie My Dear etc.



First bad thing is Bloo's pain.As of mentioned by Star_Blaster in his BDI thread,there have been alot of episodes where Bloo gets injured and hurt.In this episode,he gets beaten up by fruit and vegetables,gets forced to be Duches's servant and gets bonked on the head by Duchess!(Mac too).



Second bad thing is that Applebee family.They are such nerds.Plus they DO dress up bad!I don't blame Duchess trying to escape,I wouldn't wanna be living with them if I were an imaginary friend.If I were one,I'd go with that third family that tries to adopt her,they're normal.The previous 2 families are too gruby and work out too much.



Third thing is both Duchess and Terrance.For Duchess,she forces everyone to do all of her stuff for her,hey Duchess you can do all that stuff on your own you're not a baby anymore!And as for Terrance,he was a BIG jerk in this episode!He lied to Mac that they're moving to Mellasia!So Mac tries to get the applebee family to see that Duchess is evil!It doesn't work so they try to get Duchess back into Foster's,but Terrance shows up there first and Mac and Bloo get pain!THen everybody finds out it was all a trick,and he gets away with it!Why didn't the just put him in the unicorn pit like they did in the pilot?



Fourth bad thing is the ending.I felt bad for Mac and Bloo that the had to be Duches's servant for the rest of their lives!



Fith bad thing is the credits,they were boring.



And the last bad thing is the storyline.Everyone is fed up with living with Duchess,so they get alot of families to adopt her,three of them don't work until the Applebee familie comes and adopts her,which was fine at first for Mac until he finds out that he is living next door to her.Then Mac's mom is fed up with living next door to Duchess and decides to move,so Terrance triks Mac into making him think thst they're moving to Mellasia,which means he can't see Bloo anymore.So he gets Bloo's help to get the Applebee family into seeing that Duchess is evil.It doesn't work so Mac and Bloo try to get her back into Foster's but that mediocre Terrance interfears with them and shows up at Foster's before them resulting into pain on both Mac and Bloo!Then they all find out it was all a trick and Terrance just gets away with it,but then the gang lets them bring Duchess only to be her servant!And they agree!Wow great episode,NOT.



So I give this episode a 0/10.The only thing that WAS good was the return of

Mac's mom,and that's it,everything else was bad.



Like this episode,think again.

Duchess has a special requirement to start her day. So when the Applebees doesn't have it, she gets upset and keeps the Kazoo family wide awake. So Mac is so annoyed that he wants to get Duchess back to Fosters. But Terrence helps the others to keep Duchess away. And he's successful. But Mac and Bloo can saty as long as they promise to be Duchess's maids.



Now that was a heart-breaker. Seeing Mac and Bloo working for Duchess. ESPECIALLY MAC!! Poor Mac. But this is why I'm trying to convince evryone that Danny Phantom should cross with Fosters. Maybe someday, it will. Oh well, for now I hope this show makes up for this episode.

What the heck happened here? OK, everyone's sick of Duchess (what else is new..), they try to adopt her off, she gets adopted by this cruddy family who just happen to live beside Mac bla bla bla bla bla.



...this is one of the worst episodes they've played. I mean, it was as dull as a dishwasher. The only good parts were the re-enactment of LOTR and Mac saying goodbye. The rest just sucked penguin.



It was nice to see Mac's mom appear again though. I'm glad those who enjoyed, well, enjoyed it. After all, TV shows are made to be watched and enjoyed.



But this episode? No, that's just wrong. I hope they don't do this again, because nothing happened.

Like WhataMack, Star_Blaster and toontownwiz I thought this was bad in many ways. But like many other people I liked it... Sorta. The Applebees were annoying and stupid! Why must Duchess make Mac and Bloo suffer? And why must they pelt poor Bloo and Mac with vegataion? Why do you people love this?!?

For these 4 reasons:



1. The Applebees are idiots. No matter what Duchess does they don't care, and when Mac and Bloo try nad mess the house up they tihnk the room has gone clean. Weird. They are too crazy and stupid for my liking.



2. Terrence. Why does he have to be in most episodes? He spoils them too, by bullying mac and lying to him. He made Eddie Monster a bad ep too.



3. The war. Please. This is Fosters. It may be just a little war with carrots and apples but still, they tried to knock Mac and Bloo out. They end up that way and wake up hut and lying in mud.



4. The ending. Mac and Bloo can stay on one condition. Mac and Bloo have to be Duchess's servanst forever or tehy have to leave. WHAT!? That's stupid. I was sorry for them because they looked so tired and worn out and Duchess forced them to carry her. While their friends are haivng fun they have to do work. That sucks.



The only good things were: The return of Mac's mum, Bloo and his puppets (funny!) and the gang partying! That was cool. The rest of the ep sucked.

This episode mainly focused on how Duchess treats her roomates. And to be blunt, she treats them like crap. To get her out of the house, the others plot to get her adopted. The only problem is Duchess insults every potential adoptee. That is until, she ends up meeting the one family who don't know what an insult is.



Then the bad part comes. It turns out that the family adopts Duchess is also Mac's next door neighboors. Duchess acts as much of a brat (which I'm using lightly) as she does at Fosters. This leads Mac's Mom to want to move away. Now the only way Mac isn't going to move is to get Duchess back in Foster's.



Even though Duchess is probably the annoyest character this decade, I loved this epiosde. And to be honest, I actually love her character. She's probably the one character in the show you'll really hate, but she's such a great antagonist.



This is also perhaps one of the funniest episodes of Foster's. Mac's and Bloo's attempts to get Duchess back is funny. Bloo's antics with his gloves was hilarius. And Madam Foster literally goes to war just to keep Duchess out of the house.



Overall; great episode. The ending is real good, and all the characters are used well.

This is my favourite season 3 episode so far. WHere as I think season 2 slipped up following sloppily on the succsess of the first season, this episode, as the previous ones, get season 3 right up there with season one and not only does it make this season MUCH better than season 2 but also follows greatly on the succsess of season 1.



This episode is pure comedic genious folks. It was seriously non stop laughs. Now you think that an episdoe just full of laughs would have no real story line and the laughs would be cheap but Foster's pulled this one WAY off. Grade A+++ material here. I'm not going to say anymore than that. If you haven't seen it, watch it folks, watch it and be amazed ;)

Oh, man! I could watch this episode over and over! And I would never get tired of it! The whole plot worked great on every scale! The Applebees totally reminded me of the Flanders. But the one part of this episode I loved the most was the climax! When Bloo said, "Attack of the killer tomatoes!", My brother and I were bursting out with laughter! I hope the "Foster's Goes to Europe" episode is as good!

i loved this ep its about snooty duchuss being adopted by macs neighbors but unfortunately if mac or bloo dont do something mac will move yo wisconsin er.....malaysia,

i loved this ep it was hilarious and if you love lord of the rings you will love this ep., you got to see this episode its a must see and i cant tell you thge ending but i will say this : there is alot of spoofs, a freind that looks like hes made by dr.seuss, a girl across the street bloo has a crush on and mac numerously hitting his head on a table

They were a little out of character, but otherwise fair. I did like the parody of the Lord of the Rings:The Two Towers battle because that part always made me sit on the edge of my seat no matter how many times I watched it. Still, it could use a little work.

"Duchess of Wails" bring us the very first episode to focus a great deal on Her Royal Duchess Diamond Persnickety the First, Last, and Only. As fans know, not very many individuals like Duchess at all.



"Duchess of Wails" begins when the gang grows sick and tired of serving Duchess. They were so fed up that they put up advertisements to have Duchess adopted, which was tried before in the Pilot movie--and ended up not happening. After several attepts at having her adopted, a very cheerful, I suppose you can call them a Brady-esque / Flanders-eque family--the Applebees (a very gleeful family) ends up adopting the stuck-up imaginary friend. As Duchess is taken away from Foster's, the entire gang throws a farewell party--celebrating the departure of Duchess.



When Mac returns to the apartment complex, he heard Duchess's voice and saw her. Mac became totally stunned, and shouted with disappointment. Duchess's loud and annoying voice kept Mac awake throughout the night. The next morning, Mac and Terrence are seen looking exhausted. For the first time since the Pilot movie, their mother was seen. The mom considered moving away, if things do not settle down. Leaving Mac disappointed, Terrence became excited--telling mac that they would be moving to Singapore--Wisconsin? Mac corrected Terrence saying that Singapore is in Malaysia, not Wisconsin (which was true decades ago, but not at the present time). That made Terrence even happier.



The whole Singapore = Wisconsin/Malaysia thing was amusing, even Bloo thought Singapore was in Wisconsin. Mac was explaining to Bloo about possibly moving away, which would mean the two boys wouldn't see each other again, and Bloo would be put up for adoption. So, Mac and Bloo decided to sabotage the Applebee's place. We witnessed Mac's more mischievous side again--which we saw quite often from Bloo. It was great to see that side of Mac again. The boys had succeeded on attempting to sabotage the place, and tried to frame Duchess for the chaos--or did they? Leaving Mac and Bloo surprised, the Applebees thanked Duchess for the mess the boys created for her.



Mac was ready to thrown in the towel believing that there's no chance in getting Duchess unadopted. Fortunately, Bloo wasn't ready to quit. He remembered the sign mentioning that every imaginary friend that enters the home shall be taken care of. Bloo kidnaps Duchess, and Mac joins Bloo--busting out of the apartment complex, and bringing her back to Foster's. Unfortunately for Bloo and Mac, Terrence went after them--beating them to the entrance. Terrence's entrance to the door was a whole lot like Aragorn's entrance in Lord of the Rings in "Return of the King." There are more LOTR references, yes. Even the music during the final scenes is very similar to the soundtrack of the LOTR trilogy.



The last third of the episode was the strongest portion of the episode. The entire battle sequence, the music--definitely a parody of "The Two Towers." Fruits and vegetables were use by Terrence's alliance (which consisted the entire Foster's gang, minus Bloo, Mac, and Duchess). When the gang pulled out the carrots, Madame Foster shouted out a phrase, consisting of "what's up, doc?" Can you say Bugs Bunny? Bloo and Mac tried many different ways to bring Duchess into the house--using the ladder, and using Duchess herself to bust the door open. Unfortunately, Bloo and Mac were hit hard.



Waking up moments later, everyone checked to see if Mac was all right. Realizing that he lost the battle, Mac said farewell to the Foster's gang. Frankie asked Mac where he's heading. Mac explained what he was told, and why he and Bloo brought Duchess back to the home--and wondered if Terrence told the gang about the move to Singapore. The gang was stunned, as they knew nothing about the move. They all became angry at Mac's bully brother. The gang apologizes that they would never allow something like that to happen--under one condition. The condition--to help out Duchess in the mornings. There were some great lines at the final scene with Bloo and Mac saying how Singapore--Wisconsin--um--Malaysia--may not be such a bad place.



The episode--perfect. This has been one of my favorite shows period, and without of a doubt my absolutely favorite show of this decade. Thank you, Adam and Amy for writing such a great episode. There have been a lot of great episodes in the past, but I have not given a 10 for any of them. This episode, however, is an exception. The music, the writing, the execution of the episode, the references--they were outstanding. This episode will lift up people's spirits, especially if you haven't been too impressed with some of the previous episodes. Although I enjoy Bloo's selfish behavior for many episodes, I do want to see some more episodes where he shows that he does care about Mac--his creator, his best friend. I'm sure we're going to see more of that in future episodes. Anyhoo, lots of action, lots of comedy, and a few dramatic moments. Also, it was great to give Duchess a lot of time here--the most she received since the Pilot movie and "Partying is Such Sweet Soiree." Although she's nowhere near the top of my favorites, there's something about her that makes me want to see more of her in future episodes--I cannot figure out why.



Anyhoo, thank you, Foster's team, for such a wonderful masterpiece. This has been a great season, so far.

After two disappointing episodes, "Duchess of Wails" finally broke the chain that "Camp Keep A Good Mac Down" started.



This episode began when the Duchess commands everyone at Foster's to do the deeds for her, and of course, this gets on everyone's nerves. However, by fate, the Duchess gets adopted, and it seems things will turn out right.



The problem: she lives next door to Mac, and after learning he might be moving to Malaysia (something that Terrence intended to scare his brother), Mac and Bloo plans to get Duchess back to Foster's, no matter what.



With the characters back to their old selves, a well-done plot in place and lots of references, "Duchess of Wails" is a very entertaining episode to watch.

I really enjoyed watching Duchess of Wails. It was great seeing Mac's mother again. The only other time she was seen was in House of Bloo's, the pilot episode. This was also the first episode where we mainly see Duchess. I did feel bad when Mac and his family had to move and Bloo wiill be put up for adoption. But the ending turned out to be excellent. Season 3 is doing exceptional so far.

I think it's safe to say that there are very few fans of the show who like Duchess. It is more than likely that many dispise her, and it's clear to see why.



Here we see the true ugliness of her character since the first episode of Foster's aired. Pushy, snobbish, and extremely diminutive to the maximum. Frankie, the other imaginary friends, and even Herriman despise her. And it is near impossible to get her adopted; until one fateful day. The most 'Naive Polyanna-esque' family in the world decide to take her in. Against her will, this strangely nice family (They seem to be related to 'The Flanders' from 'The Simpsons') takes her home with them. Everyone in Foster's naturally is thrilled the stone cold witch is finally gone.



Mac was really happy this happened too....at first. He soon learns that the family who adopted her are his neighbors. Her constant whining and complaining about her living conditions keep Mac, his brother and (appearing for the first time since episode 1) his mother up throughout the night. If she is not disposed of, Mac is threatened by his mother, and to a more elaborate false extent his brother, to move to another house. Naturally, this causes Mac to try and prevent this so he can see BLoo everyday. A plot to get the neighbors who adopted Duchess fails; so Mac and BLoo take extreme measures by carrying Duchess back to Foster's by force.



Upon Terrence's warning, Madame Foster organizes a resistance from her imaginary friends to prevent Duchess from being brought back. In hilarious scenes, we see Duchess get shovelled in mud, pelted by fruit and vegetables, pushed back and forth by a ladder, and having her head banged into the door by the Imaginary army. In the end, The Imaginary Friends learn the truth and fear Mac moving away. So they take Duchess back; under the condition Mac and Bloo obey her commands from now on. Oh irony!!



Well to sum it up, this episode was good because it delved into the interworkings of a minor character without changing her character. Emphasizing that she will always be a cold hearted witch; for the time being should another Duchess episode be made. The getting Singapore mixed up with Wisconsin was pretty funny; since Bloo actually fell for Terrence's misinterpretation.



But what made this episode stick out both positively and negatively, was Madame foster's Imaginary Army trying to ward off Duchess' return. This is a parody of the famous 'Battle of Helm's Deep' from 'The Lord of the Rings Thw Two Towers' of course. It starts as a parody; to a point where it stretches out too much with similar dialogue and actions. (Particularlly with Madame F's commands and Wilt freestyling on a shield Coco hatched liked Legolas did.) So then it almost becomes a blatant rip-off since the writer liked the battle scene too much. (Kinda like that one episode of 'Kids Next Door' where it reinacted 'The Battle of Hoth' with the Imperial Walkers from 'The Empire Strikes Back.)



One thing is for certain though, you can make a decent episode with a loathsome character, and make it still enjoyable and pretty funny without changing her character. But I do pity the Bloo and Mac at the end for having to bend to Duchess' every whim in exchange for her return to Foster's.

Does Adam Pava have something that we don\'t know? An old-school food fight, a family that seems to be a hundred times dumber than Terrence (yes, that can be considered a miracle) and the screaming banshee named Duchess returns for an episode where she gets adopted.



Yes, adopted



The Applebees, who live next door to Mac, adopts Her Royal Duchess Diamond Persnickity the First, Last and Only (Thank Goodness!), and are about as clueless as you can get, likes her sense of humor (it\'s called \"sarcasm\" if I remember correctly), and adopt the Picasso pain in the neck. And as Bloo and Mac try to get her back to Foster\'s, Madame Foster stages a food fight...one-sided of course. You\'ll be surprised at the ending twist if ever you\'ll understand.
