Multiple Head Case: Difference between revisions

Line 193:
 
== Western Animation ==
* Two-Badd of ''[[He-Man and the Masters of the Universe]]'' fame. In fact, in the remake, they devoted an episode to explaining how they came to exist, and another episode to their scheme to become separated from each other.
* ''[[Filmation's Ghostbusters]]'' has the similar Fib-Face. His two faces were attached to one head 90 degrees from each other, and one can never be sure which head's telling the truth and which one's lying. Again, the only way to defeat him is to get the two heads arguing.
* One of the ''[[Popeye (comic strip)|Popeye]]'' two-reelers, ''[[Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor]]'', includes a two-headed giant.
Line 204:
* ''[[Futurama]]'' "Put Your Head on My Shoulder" has Fry's head sewn onto Amy's shoulder.
* Charles and Mambo on ''[[Duckman]]''.
* ''[[Transformers]]'':
** The version of Blitzwing from ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' has three faces for each of his three personalities, which occasionally argue with each other. Like some other examples on this page, he's got one head with multiple faces, though only one face is ever visible at a time.
** And Alpha Q from ''[[Transformers Energon]]'' has ''four'' faces. It's implied that he wasn't always so schizoid, but developed the multiple personalities out of loneliness when he was trapped inside Unicron.
*** Based on the Quintessons from G1, who all had five faces. Alpha Q's full name, Alpha Quintesson, is only heard once. However, he does only have four faces. However, his mask is always closed when his fifth personality, considered his 'true face' despite no physical face representing it (we see the inner sphere turn 360° more than once; there ''isn't'' a fifth face) Alpha Q's real self speaks in the [[Voice Of The Multitude]] - Alpha Q is eventually revealed as the combined consciousness of everyone lost in his planet's destruction.
** Another humorous example would be an extra from ''[[Transformers Generation 1]]'', season 3. One of the patients on the therapy planet Torkulon has three heads... who keeps saying "I have no head... I have no head... I have no head..." Definitely [[Incredibly Lame Pun|a head-case]].
** Doublecross, Hun-Gurrr, and Sinnertwin, - who transform into twin-headed dragons, - each suffer from split personalities, a condition which is (naturally) exacerbated in their beast modes. Sinnertwin even has two voice actors. They're technically all three-headed, but sadly, we don't get a third VA for the robot mode head. Just as well, because Sinnertriplet doesn't make nearly as cool a name.
** Magmatron from ''[[Beast Wars Neo]]'' - no relation to any version of Megatron - has three heads. One is in the usual spot, and he's got one on each shoulder. He has the ability [[The Dividual|to separate into three autonomous units, but he is definitely one person]].

* This is averted in the [[Animated Adaptation]] of ''[[The Neverending Story (novel)|The Neverending Story]]'', where a three-headed character never has more than one head "awake" at a time. In the book, it was four.
* [[Hanna-Barbera]]'s 1960s version of ''[[Alice in Wonderland]]'' has a caterpillar with a head at each end, who just happened to look (and sound) like [[The Flintstones|Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble]].
* Frank and Len from ''[[Ruby Gloom]]'' are a two-headed rock musician. Frank is smarter than Len, though not much.
* OnIn ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy]]'', Grim's has a three-headed dog doesn't talk, butwhose his heads (two husky-types and one poodle) don't always act the same. Two of his heads were immediately attracted to Mindy's chihuahua Little Delicious, and exchanged glances of dismay when they realized the middlepoodle head was growling at her.
* In an episode of ''[[Jackie Chan Adventures]]'', Jackie gotwas influenced by a powerful magical pair of tigers that had {{spoiler|previously been a single tiger until they absorbed the power of the Tiger Talisman}}, and ended up with two heads, one very good and the other evil. {{spoiler|They're actually his Yin and Yang, who showed up in the first season when he was split in two by one of the plot artifacts. The evil one is a pushy jerk, and the good one is a [[Lovable Coward]] who only fights reluctantly.}}
* ''[[Planet Sheen]]'' has the two-faced Princess Oom. One face is a bubbly cheerleader type and the other is an intense seductress. Both are in love with Sheen.
* Agatha and Emily, the two-headed vulture from the [[Bugs Bunny]] cartoon ''Transylvania 6-500''. She gets along quite well with herself. Also {{spoiler|Count Blood Count, after Bugs transforms him into a male two-headed vulture. Agatha and Emily are delighted and chase him off into the night.}}
* Red Mantle and Dragoon from ''[[The Venture Brothers]]''. A recently-joined pair (forced when Dragoon was dying after a tussle with [[Touch of Death|Phantom Limb]]) who argue constantly over which of them is actually in charge. Thus far, Dragoon has taken over the left side.
* One ''[[Underdog (animation)|Underdog]]'' short has him facing a two-headed dragon which would stop to shake hands with itself chanting "Teamwork, teamwork, that's what counts!" Of course, they quickly make the hero ''angry'', eventually reaching a [[Let's Get Dangerous]] point he quips, "I've had enough of ''both'' of you!" .
{{spoiler|'''Underdog:''' [[Let's Get Dangerous|"I've had enough of ''both'' of you!"]]}}
* On ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'', a two-headed man is one of the many citizens of Miseryville. [[The Legions of Hell|He does not look out of place]].
* The ''[[Family Guy]]'' episode "Road to the Multiverse" features a universe where everyone has two heads: one happy, one sad.
{{quote|'''Happy!Tom:''' The President's dog just had puppies!
'''Sad!Tom:''' But there was a plane crash. }}
* In the ''[[Johnny Test]]'' episode "Li'l Johnny", Johnny runs into Susan and Mary's lab to find them as two heads on one body. Their expanationexplanation? [[Noodle Incident|Don't ask!]]
{{quote|'''Mary:''' [[Mind Screw|So is your head on my body or is my head on your body?]]}}
*:* [[Fridge Brilliance|Well, the body has a moon on it, so Susan's is on Mary's.]]
* The ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen" sees the girls getting attacked by a four-headed hydra. Amusingly enough, one of the heads appears to be a little slow on the uptake; the other three heads roar in unison, for example, but the fourth one doesn't join in until it realizes what the other heads are doing.
* A character named Cindy was this in ''[[Lloyd in Space]]''. One head was nice and attractive; the other, mean and ugly. Lloyd only wanted to date the nice one; the girls weren't having it.
* The 1960s Depatie/Freleng cartoons{{context}} had a 3-headed character(s) named the Matzoriley brothers. Unfortunate ethnic stereotypes in triplicate, alleviated mildly by the fact they kept trying to beat up one another.
* Rhombulus from ''[[Star vs. the Forces of Evil]]'' has snake hands. In the episode Crystal Clear, we find out they are sentient and can talk. {{spoiler|They are more responsible than he is}}
* This is played for laughs with [[Fluffy the Terrible|Fluffy, the three-headed demon dog]] in ''[[Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures]]'', who guards the entrance to [[Big Bad|Betrayus']] castle. All[[Played for Laughs]] in that all three of its heads are nasty, savage, ravenous beasts who will gladly tear a foe to shreds, but the center head will at least send a "get well" card later; - Betrayus himself learns this the hard way after [[Too Dumb To Live| trying to take its bone]] lands him in the hospital.
