Fowlmouth

Fowlmouth is a cartoon character from the Warner Bros. animated television series Tiny Toon Adventures. He is one of the supporting characters on the show. Fowlmouth is voiced by Rob Paulsen. Fowlmouth is a young, white male rooster with a blue, short-sleeved shirt, and black and gray high tops. He attends Acme Looniversity and lives in Acme Acres.

Fowlmouth's mentor and favorite teacher is, not surprisingly, the loud and pompous Foghorn Leghorn. His high-pitched voice and nigh-permanently angry temperament are also reminiscent of Foghorn's sometime-opponent, Henery Hawk.

When he was introduced, he appeared to have a mellow personality, but in reality he had a tendency to explode into bleeped out graphic swearing in less-than-favorable situations. He was later cured of this habit per request (in order to score a date with Shirley the Loon, with whom he has a major crush on) when his refusal to curse in front of babies was exploited. This was particularly ironic given the target audience of the show. He has since replaced swearing with the euphemism 'dad gum'.

In the episode 'Buster And Babs Go Hawaiian', while the gang is having a luau inside a volcano, Plucky burns his feet from the extremely hot ground, continuously lifting up one foot after the other and shouting 'OW OW OW, OW OW OW...' in a rhythmical tone. This gives Foghorn Leghorn, Fowlmouth, and two other roosters(which are all wearing Hawaiian shirts and leis and playing music on guitars, except Foghorn who is orchestrating them) a new idea for some music, so they mimic Plucky's actions and sing and perform the new 'OW OW OW...' song. This marks the only time you see Fowlmouth and Foghorn together.

One of his biggest roles was in the direct-to-video movie Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Vacation, revealing he was still somewhat pushy and rude, especially in movie theaters, where he takes a reluctant Shirley to see Skunk No Phobia (a movie which Fowlmouth has seen 100 times), and he can't stop talking during the whole time, making everyone in the theater boiling mad (including the characters in the movie).

In the episode segment from 'Love Disconnection', titled 'My Dinner With Elmyra', Fowlmouth and Dizzy tease Montana Max at the Weenie Burger in front of many other tiny toons for being on a date with Elmyra Duff, singing the K-I-S-S-I-N-G song together about them, infuriating an already embarrassed Monty.

In one of the many songs performed from the episode 'Toon TV', titled 'Video Game Blues', Fowlmouth narrates a video-game obsessed Plucky as he fights martians through a game at the arcade.

Fowlmouth's mom and dad came from New York City, which explains Fowlmouth's dialectic accent. His mother talks and acts much like Alice from "The Honeymooners," and his father is always saying what he feels, even (perhaps particularly) when the rest of the world would rather not know.
