Farnsworth Region: #4 Leo Wong vs #13 Scruffy

[on:]

Leo just laid a good old fashioned Chinese whooping to Bella, while Scruffy eased past Terry. Which of these great characters will move on? Discuss now and voting starts at midnight tonight!

Scruffy. Leo is super annoying, and Scruffy is just, well, he's Scruffy. AKA, awesome.

Leo. I think Scruffy has been overused in season six (what's funny about his character is that he's so seldom seen), and Leo makes a pretty compelling villain in "Into the Wild Green Yonder." The Wong family dynamic in general is funny to me, but Leo as an individual is plenty worthy of a vote here. I daresay he's more developed than Scruffy, at the very least.

But the whole "Who's he?" thing is getting old. They MUST know who he is by now. And I don't find the joke as funny as it used to be, now it's just like, "Oh who's he?" "I'm Scruffy. The Janitor." Yay...

I don't find Leo to be particularly funny or interesting or compelling or anything whereas Scruffy has his moments.

I'm fine with them dropping the "Who is this guy?" schtick, but including Scruffy in so many episodes in any capacity seems unnecessary to me. His appearances are funnier to me when they are more random, more few and far between.

I don't hate him or anything, and I do think he was utilized wonderfully in "The Prisoner of Benda" (which has probably been his most prominent appearance to date); he's just not a favorite of mine, I suppose.

"I'm voting for..who are you?"
"Scuffy..the janitor"

[Reply #7 on:]

I agree with Gorky about Leo being a great antagonist in Into the Wild Green Yonder, but at the same time I also love Scruffy too much to vote for Leo over him.

[Reply #8 on:]

One of my favourite lines:

"Who's he?"
"I'm Scruffy. The Janitor."
"HANG ON SCRUFFEH."

Leo's been a better antagonist than Scruffy has been a protagonist, so he gets my vote. As well as an angry glare.

[Reply #10 on:]

I voted for Leo, who's been consistently amusing. Scruffy has gotten old and I don't like his new bigger role.

I wouldn't really consider Scruffy to be a protagonist so in my opinion, the logic falls down.

[Reply #12 on:]

I still find Scruffy funny so he gets my vote.

[Reply #13 on:]

I chose Scruffy. Because I like him in the earlier stuff. Leo isn't bad either. I just had to choose one and well I'm going by early stuff not the new stuff for these two.

[Reply #14 on:]

True, Scruffy is good in the earlier stuff. But I almost feel like some of the later stuff has put a damper on the hilarity of his earlier lines. Whereas Leo's been funny in every episode he's in.

Scruffy wins 15-7. Continue discussion in the General thread.
