replies: text: Least funny is completely subjective, but least used is definitely not accurate. That would be Ling-Ling.Raymondluxuryacht 17:31, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

text: It was Toot up until about midway through the second season, but she had some major stories in the second half of season two, while Ling-Ling had several shows where he didn't have any lines at all (and even when he did, he never had that many). Overall, if we were going to rank the characters from most to least screen time, I would say the list goes Captain Hero, Foxxy, Wooldoor, Clara, Xandir, Spanky, Toot, and Ling-Ling.Raymondluxuryacht 21:46, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

message: It is said in the article that Spankey often serves as a parody of Ron Jeremy.  I haven't found anything credible written on it, but it seems that Spanky's teaching special ed classes, and going to special olympics might also be a throw back to Ron who has a Masters degree in Special education.

replies: text: I wasn't aware of that, but you raise a very good point. Spanky's special ed background may indeed be a reference to Jeremy, especially if it was mentioned on The Surreal Life. (Was it?) The DT creators are noted reality show junkies, so if it was mentioned there, I'm quite prepared to believe it's a deliberate reference. Unfortunately, I never watched the show, so I can't judge.Raymondluxuryacht 20:28, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

message: People seem insistent on adding that Spanky is based on Porky Pig. I fail to see it at all, so before I revert it one more time, please give me some feedback on this issue. Is there something I'm missing? The fact that they're both pigs does not make one a parody of the other. If you look at pictures of the two, it should be clear how different they are. And to my knowledge, the creators have never said anything about Spanky being based on Porky.Raymondluxuryacht 16:11, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

message: what does this mean: "Spanky Ham is the only character whose artwork has remained the same since the beginning of production on the show."
:An article in Variety from when the show first got picked up shows the original versions of the characters. Except for Spanky, they all look significantly different from the way they do now.Raymondluxuryacht 00:25, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Regarding Spanky's catchphrase: he does say, "Nothing COULD possibly go wrong" in one episode, but he says "Nothing CAN possibly go wrong" more often, so I changed it back.
I also reverted this edit: "He is attracted to Princess Clara, and at the end of Season One, he even became involved with her; though the couple were not shown breaking up on screen, their relationship was never mentioned again (apart from Spanky saying that "nobody holds a gun to (his) girl" after Xandir points a gun at Clara in "The One Wherein There is a Big Twist"'s Mexican standoff)"
The incident in question does not provide an exception to the passage as stated. The passage merely says that Spanky became involved with Clara at the end of Season One, and their relationship was never mentioned again after that. The Mexican standoff scene took place in the final episode of Season One, so it was covered by the statement already.Raymondluxuryacht 21:03, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
