Bosco.
Where is Bosco?
I mean, I know he's in Vegas, but.... Are we gonna see Bosco at all this season? Would make me sad if we didn't... He's my favorite non-title character. |

According to this interview with Bosco's voice actor, Bosco isn't needed for Season 3.

I don't know if he's going to be there, but I'm glad they didn't re-use all characters. The major side characters from Season 1 AND 2 not being as overly present in Season 3 seems to be a good thing to me. Some less important characters and characters who appeared in Season 2 are enough for me.
They might appear later, but they pretty much appeared in every single episode up till now so it's nice to have time away from them I feel. |

I'm kinda happy to gets some time away from Bosco and Sybil. I think after two seasons in the spotlight they need some time away. Though I'll admit, things are a lot less lively without Abe. Though the sewer sculpture helps a little.

Sybil, Abe, no problem!
Philo Pennyworth... sure why not. Soda poppers, I think we're all on the same page. Blaster Master, I'll cope.. Jimmy Two Teeth... I'll miss him but I'll deal with it... But Bosco?! BOSCO?!?!? Come on... seriously... not cool. |

Bringing back characters for the hell of it is a huge mistep. Remember The Phantom Menace?
I mean, hell, I'd have liked to see the gorilla-man from Sam and Max Hit the Road again, but where does he fit? Even if TTG did manage to bring him back, how does he serve the story? Please stop asking for characters to return for the hell of it. Unless the purpose you need for a puzzle or story can only be served by a pre-existing character, introduce a new one (or redesign your puzzle and story). But don't bring back people for the sake of it! I can debate this with you for days. |

Fair enough but what about Superball? He's still here, is it absolutely necesarry? No.
My point is just if the character is fun to have around and is generally well recieved by fans why take that away? To better serve the story? I'm just genuinely dissapointed, him being my favorite character other than Sam an Max. Hey where'd u go? I'll take your silence as an "I agree with you kind sir, good day."  heh just kidding.

I'm guessing since the Two Teeth family are apparently missing as well then it probably all boils down to: they couldn't afford Joey Camen anymore... In which case I would say sorry that happened TT but I still feel the same way.

Given that the second half of Season Two was basically "The Story of Bosco," it seemed like he needed a break. There wasn't a lot for Sybil to do so she is also on a break. It seemed like a good idea to not open the new season with literally the same supporting cast as Culture Shock, for a third year running. That said, the season's not done yet so who knows.

Thanks Jake I was hoping for an official statement.
Err unofficial maybe... But still nice for a TT employee to pitch in some info. |

Feel free to multi-quote instead of double posting. (sorry, its a pet peeve of mine >_>)
The nice thing about not having the main cast used once again is that we can get a taste of new characters as well as some characters that haven't had a huge role in the series. I like that.

With Skun-ka'pe in this season, Bruno the Bigfoot would fit in well.  It would be interesting if Skun-ka'pe was a member of a race of intergalactic bigfoots. The race could have members on Earth, just as the intergalactic molemen do (as shown in Hit the Road and further expanded upon in The Penal Zone). |

I think Bosco just accomplished his goal, in a way. And Sybil. Their stories got an ending and although they might come back, they don't have their use like they did in Season 1, and keeping them around at all times would seem a bit forced.
Superball is an Agent and has been involved in that kind of things, it makes sense he'd be around for an alien invasion. |
