'''Olive Oyl'''
 
Popeye's love interest and frequent [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]. Olive is a very fickle being, who keeps going between liking Popeye and liking Bluto, despite the loyalty from both of them.
 
=== Tropes used by Olive: ===
Line 43:
* [[Acting for Two]]: At one point in the 40's, Popeye's actor, Jack Mercer, was drafted. What did they do? Have Olive's voice actor, Mae Questel, do a nearly flawless impersonation of Popeye!
* [[Adaptational Attractiveness]]: With a side-order of [[Progressively Prettier]]. The cartoon Olive started out as similar in design to the comic strip one, she eventually got redesigned and by the time of the Famous Studios cartoons had become rather pretty.
* [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]
* [[Informed Attractiveness]]: In the comic and early cartoons, at least by today's standards. At the time of her creation, Olive's stick-thin figure was considered quite attractive.
* [[Mama Bear]]: Very protective of Sweepea, so you better not make him cry.
