Millie Larsen

Millicent "Millie" Larsen is the main deuteragonist on the animated television series Red And Friends. She is voiced by and loosely based on series creator Nolan Splavec and first appeared with her friends Red McArthur, Aubrey Iverson, and Shauna Krawly.
Millie is an elementary school student who commonly has extraordinary experiences not typical of conventional small-town life in her hometown of South Park, Colorado. Millie is distinctive as one of the few Jewish children on the show, and because of this, she often feels like an outsider amongst the core group of characters. Her portrayal in this role is often dealt with satirically and has elicited both praise and criticism from Jewish viewers.
Like the other characters, Millie is animated by computer in a way to emulate the show's original method of cutout animation. She also appears in the 2003 full-length feature film Red And Friends: All Hell Breaks Loose, as well as related media and merchandise. While Splavec and Howell portray Millie as having common childlike tendencies, her dialogue is often intended to reflect stances and views on more adult-oriented issues and has been cited in numerous publications by experts in the fields of politics, religion, popular culture, and philosophy.
Millie attends South Park Elementary as part of Mr. Garrison's class. During the show's first 58 episodes, Millie and the other students were in the third grade following which they have been in the fourth grade. She lives in South Park with her dysfunctional mother and father Jenny Larsen and Bradley Larsen, and her 4-year-old sister Flora and her 15-year-old sister Sarah.
Millie is modeled after Splavec, while Red is modeled after Howell, Millie and Red are best friends, and their relationship, which is supposed to reflect the real-life friendship between Splavec and Howell, is a common topic throughout the series. The two do have their disagreements, but always reconcile without any long-term damage to their friendship.
Millie is shown to be nice, kind, mature, generous, and very smart. She is often seen as being more responsible than her peers, especially when it comes to her family responsibilities. Though she can be bossy at times, most people believe that this is only due to her good intentions, as she does care about her friends' feelings. Millie can be a little shy, but once she gets comfortable around someone, she opens up quickly and becomes more outgoing. She tends to get angry or sad easily, even if something happens to one of her friends. In the early seasons, she was usually portrayed as being a bit of a tomboy and a bully to the other girls, but over time she has become more caring and sensitive toward them.
Millie has had many unusual experiences through her life, including encounters with extraterrestrials, ghost towns, and dinosaurs. Millie is voiced by and based on series co-creator Nolan Splavec; he has said that the character is "very much" inspired by his own childhood. Millie speaks in a strong Southern accent, similar to the ones used by Splavec. While she is an elementary school student, Millie often exhibits knowledge and wisdom beyond her years. Millie loves to play sports such as baseball, basketball, and football. She is also quite athletic and is constantly involved in physical activities.
Millie is shown to be a very generous person, often giving away money and possessions without any thought for herself. She is brave and sometimes overreacts but is still willing to stand up to bullies and take action against anyone who abuses others. During the episode "The Trouble With Trillions," she is shown to be very curious and will try anything once. Millie shown to be the smartest girl in her class, and she often likes to prove this by doing things such as solving math problems on the blackboard during class. Many of the teachers dislike her because of how intelligent she is, and as a result she is frequently punished, sometimes unjustly. Millie is one of the most abused characters on Television and is often called "the stupidest kid in class." She is made fun of because of her accent, being the only Jewish person in town, and her intelligence.
Despite her intelligence, Millie is very naïve and gullible, often believing everything she hears, making her vulnerable to getting tricked. In some cases, she has also been known to get caught up in situations that she should have left alone. Despite all these flaws, Millie is a highly likable character and has become a fan favorite of the show. She has even made appearances in various other video games, movies, and TV shows.
