Mac is a character in Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends voiced by Sean Marquette . Mac's voice was high in the series premiere, but changes in later episodes. He has brown hair, and wears a red shirt with a white sweater underneath, black and white tennis shoes, and Tan baggy jeans. PERSONALITY Mac is a bright and unselfish boy who created Blooregard "Bloo" Q. Kazoo when he was three years old. Mac is unusually intelligent for his age. He stands three feet, six inches tall and weighing 67 pounds (according to his Coco Card) with a sense of reason and somewhat large vocabulary to match. He tends to be the one to settle any mishaps that the imaginary friends (particularly Bloo) end up causing. Mac is usually very good-natured, despite Bloo's continuing antics. No matter what happens to Bloo or any other member of the house, Mac is usually the one to bail them out. However, he has been known to snap. Mac has a strongly moral personality and he always avoids doing wrong things, but sometimes he is pushed to do otherwise, almost always by Bloo. McCracken, Mac's creator, states that "Mac is more like me now: aware of others' feelings, quiet, shy, sensitive. Mac also seems to look more like me as a little kid, which was unintentional but it just happened that way."http://fosterstv.blogspot.com/2006/07/mac.html Mac's personality goes from sensible to lunatic if he gets even a taste of sugar, which is the main reason why his mother won't let him have any. One example of this is in "Squeeze the Day" when Mac and Bloo (being the only two in Foster's) raided the refrigerator and Mac consumed much sugar, which resulted in Mac almost losing consciousness. During "Partying Is Such Sweet Soiree", one drop of heavily-sugared punch caused Mac to go completely crazy. He disrupted Bloo's secret party and embarked on a quest for more sugar. After eating enough, he even Streaked through town. RELATIONSHIPS Mac has the ability to make friends with almost any imaginary friend, his closest being Wilt , Coco and Eduardo . He cares a lot about imaginary friends, and looks out for them often. Mac isn't very popular at his school (probably due to him being a "nerd" as Bloo states in "Bye Bye Nerdy" after seeing Mac staying in during recess contentedly doing work). One of his few human friends is Goo. Mac also has a close connection with Madame Foster, with whom he shares a close kinship, particularly in that neither of them is willing to give up their imaginary friend, where most children would have done so long ago. Mac also seems to get along decently well with Mr. Herriman, despite the fact that Herriman has such a great dislike of Bloo. Even though they argue, Mac and Bloo are best friends. When first introduced, Bloo was often softer and far more protective of Mac, particularly in regards to Mac's elder brother. However, as the series progressed, Bloo's personality shifted, making him far more selfish and manipulative, even towards Mac, often tricking Mac into doing all the things he doesn't want to do and abusing the give & take of their relationship. Mac often functions as Bloo's Conscience , since Bloo's freewheeling egotism often gets him into trouble. While Mac cares for Bloo unconditionally, and will put up with a lot, there are times where he will snap and aggressively tell off Bloo. FAMILY Away from the house, he lives in an apartment with his mother and his older brother Terrence . Terrence is the stereotypical cruel older brother, who get great joy out of making Mac's life miserable. In fact, Terrence is partially the reason that Mac created Bloo. Mac's mother is a single working mother, who at the start of the series comes to the opinion that Mac is too old for an imaginary friend, and requests that Mac gets rid of Bloo, leading to Bloo moving to Foster's. Although she makes many appearances in the series, Mac's mother's face has never been shown; she is often shown from behind or with objects blocking her face from view. Mac's father has never been mentioned in the series. REFERENCES |
