Johnny Bravo
Johnny Bravo is an animated series about the boorish, skirt-chasing title character who constantly searches for a woman willing to date him, but even when he seems to find one, something goes wrong. Johnny Bravo looks and sounds like Elvis Presley, except for having blonde hair and a Fonzie-ish appearance. He is incredibly narcissistic, and infatuated with his own appearance. He lives in the fictional town of Aron City. The cartoon is shown on Cartoon Network and was created by Van Partible.
Notable characters
- Johnny Bravo (voiced by Jeff Bennett) - the title character, described above. He is also notable for the distinctive sound effects that accompany his often blindingly quick movements (usually done while trying to impress a woman) - the crack of a bullwhip being the most popular.
- Bunny Bravo (voiced by Brenda Vaccaro) - Johnny's mother - a rather untypical type of person - she seems to have a "flower power" past and sometimes surprisingly reveals her hidden talents. She's very dedicated to her son, although she's aware of his low intellect and "womanizer attitude", so she sometimes doesn't treat him and his problems seriously.
- Little Suzy (voiced by Mae Whitman) - a little girl (8-year-old) from the neighborhood, very cunning and talkative. She seemed to have a crush on Johnny in earlier seasons.
- Carl Chrysiniwitz (voiced by Tom Kenny) - local genius and geek, very interested in science, but somehow weird and timid. He seems to be Johnny's only friend, although Johnny often denies that. He sometimes uses Johnny as a guinea pig for his experiments' sake.
- Pops (voiced by Larry Drake) - a greedy owner of local chili restaurant, could be considered as Johnny's "substitute father". Alas, his tips of advice often turn to be useless and may provoke troubles for Johnny and the gang. Johnny's real father does not appear in the show. But the upcoming live action Johnny Bravo movie, starring The Rock as Johnny Bravo, will have Johnny searching for his real father.
