List of Courage the Cowardly Dog characters
He is a kind, yet easily frightened pink-furred beagle who was abandoned as a puppy after his parents were sent into outer space,[2] but was adopted by Muriel Bagge.
Muriel also has a great fondness for cooking; however, her recipes tend to include an excessive amount of vinegar, much to the distaste of both her dog and husband.
He regularly dismisses Muriel as well, but he still does love his wife, as evidenced by his concern for her well-being in a few episodes, like "The Demon in the Mattress".
Lionel Wilson originally voiced the character, but left midway through the third season due to illness (and eventually died five months after the show ended[4]) and was replaced by Arthur Anderson.
Shirley is one of Courage's three confidants, the others being the Computer and Dr. Vindaloo, and helps him occasionally by casting and reciting spells and playing the saxophone in-between verses.
Le Quack is also shown to be capable of escaping custody such as when he was first arrested, crashing the police car in the process, and later causing a fire at prison.
[10] Ma Bagge is the mother of Eustace and Horst and Muriel's mother-in-law, who shares a love-hate relationship with the former, usually calling him "Stupid Boy".
Buschwick (though he bans people from calling him that, ordering everybody to refer to him as simply "Schwick") is a cockroach who comes from a New York City neighborhood of the same name.
Courage acquires the item, but the insect finds that the contents are damaged, causing him to release the creature, attempting to kill Muriel.
He later returns in "The Revenge of The Chicken from Outer Space" where he wants to use a plunger to rip off Courage's head and put it on his roasted body.
Feeling sympathy for them, Courage helps them by taking fake pictures to make it look like they succeeded in killing him and fooling their mother into thinking that their mission was a success.
He returns in the episode "The Snowman's Revenge" where he turns the farmhouse into the West Pole and freezes Courage and his owners, however, he reveals how he lost his home and friends.
[20] This is a 3-headed dragon that does not play a villainous role but is present in 'Courage in the Big Stinkin' City' as a creature hidden behind a door inside an apartment block that Courage enters to search for a package for Schwick.
He later attacks the farm when Courage finds the slab and Eustace refuses to return it after discovering it is worth a fortune, summoning a flood of water, a loud record player, and locusts.
With some setbacks, the Mummy finally arrives at the farm where Courage hypnotizes Eustace and Muriel into thinking they are the Mayan Princess and the Poobah.
Satisfied, the Mummy decides to return to his tomb to eternally rest in peace when Muriel gives him Eustace's polka-dotted blanket for his entombment.
[9] Mecha Courage resembles a mini-dome, colored pink with a purple underside and tail, on wheels, with a red, blinking light for a nose.
In the episode’s conclusion, the vet’s rocket crash-lands on a distant planet where the dogs from his previous experiments, including Courage’s parents, have survived.
Realizing his experiment failed, the vet nervously laughs before the vengeful dogs drag him off-screen and presumably maul him to death.
[2] The Empress is the aunt of Di Lung, and she appeared in "Squatting Tiger, Hidden Dog", where her source of power (a magic silkworm) is dying and needs the bones of someone truly innocent to recharge it.
This is another monster that is also not antagonistic but is seen in 'Courage in the Big Stinkin' City' as a second creature hidden behind a door inside an apartment block that Courage enters to search for a package for Schwick.
The violin girl is a third creature hidden inside Schwick's apartment where the package he orders Courage to retrieve is also situated.
Eliza and Elisa Stitch are a pair of conjoined twin sisters who attempt to be immortal by sewing other women's souls into a quilt.
After the Bagges are inadvertently locked inside the Louvre, an eerie alignment of the planets occurs and the exhibits come to life including Mona Lisa and The Thinker.
Space Dino is a dinosaur-like alien that stands on an asteroid outside Earth's atmosphere, and is always seen with a tennis racket, which he uses to hit celestial objects.
It is later revealed to be a misunderstanding as his wife is sculpting meat to resemble customers and that the gentleman (who is a curator of culinary wonders) and Eustace are both alive.
At the start of the episode, Kitty obscures her face with a mask and believes that all dogs are evil; as a result, she physically attacks Courage several times while staying at the Bagge house.
The Captain is a muscular man with teeth that seems separated, a long, blond beard, thick eyebrows, a tattoo of a shark on his chest, an anchor tattoo on his right arm, an hook replacing his right arm, a peg leg on his right leg, an eyepatch covering his left eye covered by a black eyepatch.
Bizarrely he calls Muriel ‘Mama Mashed Potatoes’, Eustace ‘Uncle Twinkletoes’ and Courage ‘Nigel’, after the members of his family who he lived with previously.
The sea captain fools the Bagges under the false promise of a luxury cruise, only to reveal that he actually shanghaied them to sail through the Evil River to find and hunt down Carmen.
