Bob the Builder is the main protagonist, titular character and a General Contractor with being head of his own construction yard based in Bobsville, Sunflower Valley, Fixham Harbour or Spring City depending on the season. He is the main character of the show named after him.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) He is a classic british icon, much like Postman Pat, Fireman Sam and Thomas the Tank Engine.
 * 2) * What makes him unique is that much like Thomas the Tank Engine, he is not only famous in the United Kingdom, but he is also famous all around the world.
 * 3) He is pretty good at doing his job as a builder and shown to be very fit at his job in the show.
 * 4) He is beautifully animated with fluent stop-motion.
 * 5) He is passionate and determined to get tasks done.
 * 6) He is also an intelligent and fun-loving person.
 * 7) He isn't one to lose focus and often comes up with ideas on how to fix things.
 * 8) He knows how to be honest without being brutal, and he isn't afraid to let someone know when they've messed up. He doesn't even get upset when someone makes a mistake.
 * 9) He has an amazing relationship with the machines, Wendy and the rest of the civilians in Bobsville.
 * 10) * He acts as a parental figure to his machines and tries his best to keep them in line.
 * 11) He is one of the few characters who weren't flanderized in the 2015 reboot.
 * 12) He encourages children to always work together and to never give up, making him a great role model for children.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He can sometimes come off as a Gary Stu.
 * 2) The way he is animated sometimes makes him look like he has an eternal smile, but this is fixed when his show got turned into CGI.
 * 3) His redesign in the 2015 reboot is pretty bad and it fails to capture the same charm as his original design.
