In honor of Mother's Day, who are some of your favorite mothers in either cartoons, shorts, or theatrical animation?
One of my favorite moms is Tino's Mom from The Weekenders. Known for her horrible and sometimes dangerous cooking, and for her eerily perfect advice, she seems like the perfect 5th member of the group because she talks with her child, not down to him. She's not quick to judge and she works it as a single mother. I also enjoy that you see the other side and the relationship she has with her ex. Things aren't perfect but she enjoys her life now. She also doesn't sugar coat things and she slips up just like any real life mom does.
"You want me to leave the room so you can say bad words?"
"That'd be great, thanks."
"You can't end your friendships just because you're afraid to talk about your feelings! If you do then I'll...I'll...I'll HAVE YOU ARRESTED!!!"
That's what I loved most about this show: all the characters felt like something so familiar.
So what about you?
