The Bluffers: Difference between revisions

* [[An Aesop]]: While certain episodes may have an Anvilicious message or two, this is mostly subverted in that the entire series had an aesop about the danger of greed that was surprisingly subtle. Until you're told about it, that is.

* [[Ax Crazy]]: Prickly Pine, a hyperactive and grouchy porcupine who'd as soon launch a volley of quills than look at you, can be considered a rare heroic version of this trope (scaled down for kids, of course).

* [[Crapsack World]]: With the exception of the one part of the forest that's still standing.

* [[Cunning Like a Fox]]: Sharpey.

* [[Cut Short]]: The series was canceled before they could reveal what Clandestino's secret was.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Sharpey the Fox, who tries to lie, cheat, and steal like a "real fox," but [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|never seems to do it right]].

** [[The Hero]]: Zipper the Squirrel

** [[The Lancer]]: Sharpey the Fox

** [[The Big Guy]]: Honey Boy the Bear

** [[The Chick]]: Blossom the Mouse, who even has a heart-shaped tail.

* [[The Narrator]]: Gene Deitch (of ''[[Tom and Jerry (Animation)|Tom and Jerry]]'' fame) on the English dub.

* [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]]: Blossom in the English dub has a Southern Drawl. When she feels like it.

* [[Significant Birth Date]]: Clandestino was born on February 29th. One episode deals with him trying to stop time in order to make up for his "missed" birthdays and shoot fireworks all night long (which is what sends The Bluffers into action).

* [[The Smurfette Principle]]: Blossom the Mouse's sole purpose on the show seems to be "be a girl" and "flirt with obviously annoyed Zipper," though she is the only one who takes Glum's [[Heel Face Turn]] as genuine.
