Tobias "Fanboy" Cranapple III and Sir Edmund "Chum Chum" Chummery are the titular main protagonists of the former critically-panned, now redeemed Nicktoon of the same name. They are a pair of boys dressed as superheroes and wear their underwear on their pants. The duo spends their day to day lives seeking adventures while irritating everyone around them. Fanboy is voiced by David Hornsby, while Chum Chum is voiced by Nika Futterman.
Personality
Fanboy and Chum Chum are a hyperactive duo who spend most of their free time hanging out in the local convenience store or having all sorts of wacky adventures in their house. The two are usually upbeat and imaginative. At times, they are even able to have friends like Kyle tag along and join them.
Why They Deserve Frosty Freezy Freezes
- Their friendship can be charming at times.
- They are funny during some of their moments.
- The duo have a very strong bond and can even serve as a great example of friendship.

- They do (although rarely) get their comeuppances for their actions.
- David Hornsby and Nika Futterman do an excellent job voicing Fanboy and Chum Chum.
- Their rise from the "But Awesome" memes helped peak their popularity and made them far more likable. In fact, it serves as the main reason as to why this series gained more positive reception and lagacy.
- Their annoyances can be hilarious to watch at times.
- They can be smart at times, mainly Chum Chum.
- They can be kinda relatable at times.
- They did get a bit better in season 2 (most notably in the second half), though not by much since most flaws still remain (even in the second half).
- Their occasional action scenes are pretty fun to watch.
The Only Bad Quality
- Unfortunately, they also have enough flaws to have a page on the Loathsome Characters wiki.
Trivia
