if anybody has seen the burple nurples episode they may remember one of the nurples saying "you will die" and then "die" and finally "HELL" i wouldnt think that chowder would have swear words and tell people about it which is why i request a controversy section Godzillastar 03:12, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

As the template {{Trivia}} states, trivia sections are discouraged. I've addressed several of the trivia points, moving them to a section with context where the trivia is more relevant, however I disagree with the statement about Chowder counting to 42: Chowder exclaims that he can only count to 42, an obvious reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy.. I don't disagree with it being a possible reference to the HHG, but that is opinion and not fact or even verifiable. The other trivial facts (Thricecream man, Katamari) have been attested to directly by the creator, and can be considered verifiable and reliable. The species issue is still muddy, since Greenblatt's blog did not directly address the issue, but was rather vague in saying "all of these" Yng varr 22:17, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
As shown in [1] lists of allusions seem to be on the pages of TV show episodes. The information about 42 should be referred to as an allusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.112.118.208 ( talk • contribs) 01:29, November 17, 2007
When should a TV show pages be divided up? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.112.118.208 ( talk • contribs) 01:32, November 17, 2007
I like possibility number one. We should model it after, say for example, the episode list for the Powerpuff Girls. Give a very brief description of each episode, its air date, its writers and directors, seasons, etc. We should help to fix this on every cartoon network original show. 24.186.101.182 ( talk) 21:14, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
As much as I disagree with it, I'm now leaning towards keeping Chowder Zone in the External Links section. Greenblat's blog sort of blessed it, by mentioning it on his blog [2], and also apparently talking with the fansite owner. I'd rather not see indiscriminate list of external fanlinks, but WP:FANSITE is clear about this:
WP:NOT#LINK is further clearer:
At the very least, maybe it'll direct people to a site more appropriate for non-verifiable information (like "he's inspired by Pokemon"). Thoughts, comments? Yng varr 12:17, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Image:Chowder Logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I read somewhere that Chowder is Truffles and Mung Daal's adopted son. Can anyone comfirm this? Because in "A taste of Marzipan" Truffles said they had no kids. Even so, how come Chowder lives with them? What about Panini and Ms.Endive, are they related? Or is it simply that they work for knowledge and board? Loolylolly1997 ( talk) 01:19, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
It is currently unknown if Chowder is an orphan, adopted, or whatever. All we know right now is he's Mung's apprentice, and thats that. Stickmeister ( talk) 16:11, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
There is a dire need of the characters' pages on here. They now link to articles about food, plants and fungus. comment added by blimf123 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.225.227.116 ( talk) 18:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
There aren't very many characters in the show Chowder, otherwise the backround characters and some of the recurring characters. I think we can live without a list of Chowder characters page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.74.155.155 ( talk) 03:34, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
A list of Chowder food would be good, but probably not needed. The only reason a list of food is good is because they're different from other food, such as Wawamelon, Grenapes etc. Although, they have mentioned food in its orginal stae, such as Apple or Mushroom.

Should Mung Dall's age be changed form 300 to 450. In the latest episode that should premire on January 25, 2008 it says that Mung Dall misses his and Truffles 450th aniversary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.94.4.76 ( talk) 22:04, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
This show has a really weird animation style, in which characters with patterned skins of clothes appear to move as "windows" over a stationary pattern--i.e. the patterns on clothes and skin don't move with the characters. Does anyone have a more concise way of describing it? Also, is it mentioned in any secondary sources? Reyemile ( talk) 20:19, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
This article is not a good article yet, here are some tips:
My little brother was watching this show this morning, and it was the episode where Mung Daal created the "Not Fruit" (as titled in the Mung Daal character description section) and when I heard him pronounce it in the show, it sounded like "Noh Fruit", and not "Not Fruit". However, I realize that's addressed in the character description section. However, I propose why it may be pronounced, or even truly named "Noh Fruit" instead of "Not Fruit". In Japanese culture, they have a theater related to Kabuki called "Noh Theater" which is the oldest form of Japanese theater. It's also called "*Total* Theater". This type of theater encompasses all types of expression -- hence the term "Total" in "Total Theater". When I heard "Noh Fruit" I instantly thought "Total Fruit". And I was even more confident it was relating to this when I saw that the fruit actually could become any fruit! This would explain it's reference to "Noh" or "Total." The Noh Fruit encompasses every fruit, just as Noh Theater encompasses all kinds of drama, songs, dances, and poems.
Just a thought. I may be thinking way too far into it. Just thought it was odd for him to pronounce it differently than it's supposedly spelled.
I also have no idea how to sign my name to this, which would be "Neverent", though I haven't created an account... which would most likely help. P.S. Thanks for moving this comment to the bottom, I hadn't realized I put it as the first one.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.45.42.58 ( talk) 09:24, April 2, 2008
Froggy Apple Crumple Thumpkin was the pilot episode, and should be listed first —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.255.80.105 ( talk) 16:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Just been mooching through various spoken articles and it's really nice to hear them and got me interested in trying to do one for this article. Thing is, when you read the article aloud you get a good idea of where the mains flaws of the article are and there's a few just in general readability. Anyway, I'd like to incorporate a few of the ideas and start making up an audio version from that specific edit. Good idea, bad, is it even required for such a show? You tell me. -- treelo talk 18:13, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
I just visited this page looking for some info on the show and found a "Cameo Appearances" section and the grammar was pretty bad and it didn't really make sense so I edited it a bit and tried to make it pretty, but I don't do these things so someone else might want to figure out where to put the contents of that section. I doubt it's long enough to warrant its own section. 75.171.69.77 ( talk) 09:30, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
June 5 starts season two. That is what the commercials are explicitly saying. The tagline says "chowder season two starts june 5th". Can't argue with that.
A normal season usually has 13 episodes, but season one has 12 listed, and I've counted them on my DVR (I've saved them all). So normally and usually are the key words.
Now for the big but (no jokes). There was a reference that season one was extended to 20 episodes. It's still in the article, it's a blog entry at [4]. So now season two starts with only 12 episodes for season one? Where did the other 8 go? They're not part of season two, since that undeniably starts on June 5th, and there's not enough time in the world to air 8 new episodes to fill out for 20. Yngvarr (c) 22:01, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
