Dirty Dog (Cool Cat Fights Coronavirus)

"I'm Dirty Dawg!! And I'm gonna pollute ALL the kids with Coronavirus!!!"

- Dirty Dog

Dirty Dog is the main antagonist of the Cool Cat franchise. Serving as the main villain of Cool Cat Fights Coronavirus and the upcoming Cool Cat Stops a School Shooting. He is an evil, sadistic yet misguided, self-deluded, and ineffective canine that is Cool Cat's archnemesis whose goal is to cause mayhem around him after his goal with the intentions of clearing half the population of the world with COVID-19 had failed. He was voiced by Derek Savage.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) He is an intentionally mean-spirited and one-dimensional antagonist, but he is an extremely entertaining and redeemable one at that.
 * 2) He is very much like an old-fashioned, amusingly over-the-top comic-book villain and possibly a Captain Planet type of villain, this makes him easily the best character in both, the horrid movie he made his first appearance in, Cool Cat Fights Coronavirus, and the whole Cool Cat franchise as a whole (which is pretty impressive for a character made by Derek Savage of all people).
 * 3) He's a much funnier version of Butch the Bully from Cool Cat Saves the Kids.
 * 4) Even though he failed to accomplish his plans of attacking Cool Cat and his friends, he somehow managed to create a big Coronavirus atom single-handedly. All by grabbing some random bit of air, pouring his "magic sauce" from a glass bottle of Budweiser he got from a witch dog and mutating it into a singular, airborne Coronavirus molecule sitting on his bare hand (which has the size of a baseball), he then sends out to attack Cool Cat as if it is alive. This comes off as profound, bizarre, and perhaps even formidable; all at the same time.
 * 5) His shirt design (especially the graffiti font spelling out his name) objectively looks cooler than all of Cool Cat's lame shirt designs.
 * 6) Derek Savage actually did a decent job at voicing him. He has a hammy, "cartoonishly evil" tone of voice that makes him sound really goofy.
 * 7) Andre Matthews did a great job at making him incredibly expressive with Dirty Dog's athletic movements and giving him a lot of energy to make him look exaggerated.
 * 8) While his rap number is laughably bad, he does make some good points about Cool Cat being a "silly cat", how there are kids that are dumb & easy to scare, and how there are some adults out there that are dumb/gullible enough to be tricked as something we do have to be highly aware of.
 * 9) Where Dirty Dog threatening to shoot up a school as his next plan to conquer the world was meant to be taken seriously, it can be viewed as hilarious for how over-the-top and bombastic it is (especially because of Dirty Dog's childishly goofy dialogue).
 * 10) * The scene where he infects a kid is meant to be horrifying because of how gratuitously evil it is, but when you know that dogs can't infect others with COVID, it's rather hilarious to see how much he acts like an absolute goofball (especially the way he coughs in a comical manner).
 * 11) The way he growls and laughs falls into the "so bad it's good" territory, thus making it hilarious.
 * 12) He has tons of nice quotes here and there, with a few of them being:
 * 13) * 🎵“I'm Dirty Dog, and I'm the baddest there is! You're just a sheep!! And I'll bite you on the leg!!!”🎵
 * 14) * “That Cool Cat makes me mad! But look over there!! There's a punk kid!”
 * 15) * “I'm such a mean bully!”
 * 16) * “Kids are so dumb! And adults are too! I'll cough in their face, just to scare them, yeah!”
 * 17) * “Puah Pah Punk!! Kids are so dumb!! Puah Pah Punk!! Corona-virus is a scam!”
 * 18) * “Yeah! I caught a Corona-virus, and now I need to add my magic sauce!”

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Most viewers tend to have mixed feelings about him since he can be viewed as a character you love to hate/find entertaining as a comical villain or being viewed as a completely one-dimensional antagonist who's not only pathetic, acts like a 10-year-old & being a total joke, but also causes some provocative thoughts because of his recklessly evil actions based on such a serious topic like Coronavirus of all things.
 * 2) * Not to mention that the scene where he attempts to infect a kid was still quite cruel despite the ridiculous execution.
 * 3) ** He called the kid "ugly" and a "punk".
 * 4) * He is meant to represent the anti-maskers of the COVID crowd. Because of this, he seems to have an extremely low opinion of pro-maskers by calling them "sheep" and refers to the pandemic itself as a "scam" without so much as a hint of irony or self-awareness.
 * 5) For whatever reason, he tends to refer to two Latino girls, Cool Cat's newfound friends, as "rat-haired".
 * 6) Despite making make some good points during his rap number, it is still very cringy and cheesy to watch.
 * 7) Most of his dialogue is extremely childish.
 * 8) * His very introduction is just as laughable.
 * 9) He shares several flaws that are carried over from Butch the Bully from the infamous Cool Cat film. Some of these include being a one-dimensional bad guy whose goals are immature and troublesome, yet their actions are completely useless.
 * 10) * Where Butch the Bully was a harmless little kid whose biggest sin was bringing a gun to school, Dirty Dog's intentions to endangering the lives all around him make him out to be a complete psychopath.
 * 11) He seems to have contradictory writing to his character. On one hand, he believes that the coronavirus is a scam and doesn't exist, but on the other hand, he appears to have COVID-19 and constantly tries to actively infect people with it.
 * 12) He really didn't have an actual reason to hate Cool Cat in the first place (despite Cool Cat himself having every right to be hated alongside the kids, Angela and Britney).
 * 13) He's so profoundly stupid, clueless, and bumbling that he somehow used his bizarre skills and talents of sorcery to make his own plan fallible.
 * 14) * His moronic behavior is better shown when he said that he wants to "pollute" kids with COVID when the correct verb is "infect". Also, since he's a dog, he literally can't transmit the disease to anyone.
 * 15) * Another moment of his laughable actions is "coughing" on a water balloon.. and somehow missing Cool Cat and the kids, making his lack of aiming skills very ludicrous.
 * 16) Since his character design comes from the same people who designed Cool Cat, Dirty Dog's feet are poorly stitched out (much to the point that you can see the shoes that are supposed to be his feet), his oddly long tail is rather questionable and his generic face design doesn't match his fur design at all (as if the face design for the actual costume went missing or something). Because of this, his character design come offs as poorly designed and poorly thought out.
 * 17) * It doesn't help that he looks like a rejected (and considerably tacky looking) Power Rangers antagonist.
 * 18) * His earlier mask design and appearances prior to Cool Cat Fights The Coronavirus can be found in both videos on the Cool Cat YouTube channel, is genuinely repellent (the black eyes on his realistic eyes doesn't help any further for how off-putting it looks and he comes off as incredibly obnoxious here).
 * 19) While he is decently voiced by Derek, some of his audio clips (like his laugh) can be a bit too loud because of the movie's poor editing.

Trivia

 * Dirty Dog is a reference to the YouTuber Mumkey Jones, who was scheduled to play the school shooter in the upcoming film before the controversy regarding the funding for the film Cool Cat Fights The Coronavirus.
 * It is confirmed that his mother is a witch dog by a Cool Cat Tweet.
 * On the Cool Cat Twitter account, it's confirmed that Butch the Bully created him.
 * Much like Butch the Bully from the previous film, Dirty Dog is by far the most popular aspect of the film Cool Cat Fights Coronavirus!, being a hilariously over-the-top villain whose awkward rap number is regarded as probably the best part of the movie.
