  • Robbie may be LazyTown’s resident villain, but that doesn’t mean he’s a “bad guy” exactly.

    It’s very telling that, on the clip show episode where every character talks about their favorite song, Robbie doesn’t mention “Master of Disguise” or even “Lazy Scouts.” He chooses “You Are a Pirate,” the one time (in the first season) where all the kids in LazyTown were just having good fun with him, cunning evil plans aside.

      And in Who's Who, Robbie tries to get rid of Stephanie by making a clone that says mean things. I found that very good because Robbie has to make plans to get rid of Stephanie as well sometimes since she's the one who brings Sportacus to LazyTown in the first place.

    Well, he likes being bad, a villain and tries to be a bad guy mostly. Also, there's no tragic stories for LazyTown characters. Robbie is fine with no development since we like him as a villain though a tiny increase in villainy would do for him. Stefan Karl should have based Robbie's true thoughts on the kids off his annoyance of them being noisy, foiling his plans and disinterest in friendship in interviews instead of what he said. That would be better since they're his enemies for foiling his plans and that he likes being a villain and ruining their fun.

    8:52: I would love to point out that the 2D character designs for the cast, especially when animated, looked a lot better than how they looked as live characters (especially when paired with Stephanie, Sportacus, and Robbie Rotten). It reminds me of Little Nemo, Alice in Wonderland, and even Scooby-Doo, where the basic characters are rotoscoped, with slight changes, but they compliment the exaggerated characters; giving this sort of cohesive artstyle.

    Definitely hit the nail on the head with this video. I enjoyed Lazy Town when I was younger, mainly for Robbie Rotten. Sure the hero moments were cool, the songs were memerable, well a select few songs and the show all around was entertaining at the time for me, but Robbie is what I remember the most out of the whole show even more so than Sportacus which is really saying something because normally you root for the hero, but in this shows case I was rooting for the villain, not just for the entertainment value but for Robbie to eventually find it within himself to not be alone so much, as that is why he was so evil to begin with like you explained.

    Theres so much to his lore that isn't covered. Its not really related to the show, and you kind of have to dig deeper. For example, "Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ," the Icelandic play where Stefán plays Glanni, the predecessor of Robbie. Note that they are definitely not the same, as said by Stefán himself that they are different characters, but hes the start of the journey. There is also "Jól í Latibær," an Icelandic Christmas album, which has "Aleinn um Jólin" in it, another piece of the Robbie puzzle. Along with that song, theres also "Good to be Bad," the cut song from Suprise Santa that has an extended version in "Lazytown - The New Album" which I think of as the Lazytown version of Aleinn um Jólin.
    Theres actually a lot of refrences to the play(s, theres the very first one called Áfram Latibær, but it is missing Glanni.) refrenced in the show, but not noticeable unless you have seen them.
    I just wanted to point out/add to the lore people can dig through since theres actually a lot more to the history of Lazytown that people miss. You can add these pieces to your own conclusion of Robbie as a character.

    He was the center of attention before Sportacus came into the picture and in general, he just likes being lazy exactly like how the town used to be and again Sportacus took all of that away from him? So that’s why he was always doing all these bad weird and in some cases funny things, I don’t know where and how you figured this out but had you not explained all this I always used to assume Robbie was just the bad guy who had nothing else better to do with his life than to do all the bad things he did in the show
