DEBUT 1994

Georgie is a hippo and children's TV icon who appeared in the Dinosaurs episode "Georgie Must Die." An obvious spoof of Barney the Dinosaur, Georgie is actually a megalomaniac planning to take over the world through his financial empire and the devotion of the dinosaur children. Because of this he was then arrested and sent to prison for racketeering and tax evasion after Earl Sinclair exposed him on television. Roy Hess ended up taking his place on TV as the eponymous "Uncle Roy."

A similar character, Blarney, appeared on the series as a hand puppet.
