Fred Figglehorn (YouTube counterpart)

Fred Figglehorn (AKA FЯED) is an Internet meme and YouTube character created and portrayed by Lucas Cruikshank. Fred Figglehorn is a hyperactive and socially awkward protagonist who is the main protagonist of the FЯED franchise. He used to be a good character, and that’s what we are talking about here, so bare with us ok?

Why He Used to Rock

 * 1) Fred was a very hyperactive and weird, but hilarious and likable character.
 * 2) He was irreverent, but he was mostly tame.
 * 3) His YouTube channel used to be pretty good, as it was shown to have his wacky adventures in the 2000s, which were all fun to watch.
 * 4) He became an internet meme.
 * 5) Lucas Cruikshank portrayed Fred decently.
 * 6) He may do bad things sometimes, but he isn’t as bad as his mom.
 * 7) He used to have good publicity and was much more better in 2006-2009 than he is now.
 * 8) He was actually smart and provided educational values.
 * 9) He was a good influence to everyone.
 * 10) With Fred, safety is NOT an issue and he had GREAT user content.
 * 11) He made a special guest appearance on mh:besttvshows:The Annoying Orange, and that YouTube channel since then has used him as a rare gag, which is still funny, specifically in Ask Orange.

Bad Qualities (before his downfall)

 * 1) His screaming can be painful at times.
 * 2) His high pitch voice can be annoying at times.
 * 3) He can be annoying, dumb and immature sometimes.
 * 4) His fourth wall breaking can be annoying at times.
 * 5) He is sometimes a spoiled brat, a creep, and a wimp.
 * 6) He can be mean spirited sometimes.
 * 7) His "Oh my gammit" line gets old very quickly and will give you a nerve.
 * 8) He made an unnecessary appearance in the iCarly episode iMeet Fred. Understandably, said episode is hated by many fans.
 * 9) Starting in 2010, he has been horribly flanderized, mostly because of his awful movies and TV show that aired on Nickelodeon, but unlike the Annoying Orange’s case, where his TV show only effected his TV counterpart and Orange is still very lovable on YouTube, this was a big impact on Fred as a character in general, and is one of the biggest downfalls of a good character in YouTube history.
