Robbie is one of the only characters that actually got developed, along with Tori and Jade. It can be seen when he got rid of Rex and became more confident in himself.

[@Stinsation]

@@2beornot2be687 Development involves growth, which I think she had none. Most people consider it regression, and prefer Cat from season 1. It also didn’t help that she didn’t get many plotlines to actually develop her character. She was just a side character used for comedic relief, and it got exposed in the worst way in Sam and Cat. She “changed” as a character, but she never developed.

Robbie needed a serious therapist more than anything. He had a lot of internal issues that just amplified external problems. If he fully incorporated Rex into his personality he would have been a much more balanced individual and a lot better socially. Add a slightly better fashion sense and he would do really well.

[@dorothymontrose6371]

Rex was kind of the sociopathic side of him though

[@Saskaruto16]

@@dorothymontrose6371 Psychologically Rex could be considered Robbies "Shadow". While you don't want to act on your darkest impulses, it's very important to acknowledge your shadow and incorporate it. This allows you to respect it and therefore yourself for what you are capable of. Without it you aren't really engaged in proper moral behavior because you don't have the same understanding of choice, just fear of consequences. Robbie chooses to deliberately separate himself from his shadow and this causes a lot of internal issues like his lack of confidence and self worth. This hurts him in everyday life because it makes him a lot more socially awkward and causes him to latch on to people like Kat in a "creepy" way. It also causes him to separate himself from his instances of lashing out by having "Rex" do it instead of Robbie. Look at his attack on Trina as a prime example. Robbie doesn't have to morally acknowledge what he did at all because it's completely separated through Rex. For a better explanation of the shadow and its incorporation check out these videos of Jordan Peterson talking about Yungs idea of it and JBPs own incorporation of his shadow: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4jSm4mAgMmbZ68 kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4GsdXiuYqyppLM kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGepXp2vp7h1nck

[@maameyaa7053]

@@Stinsation i don't think that Jades behavior should be rewarded. My problem with Robbie is that he uses Rex to deflect his problems and physically separate himself from his bad behavior. He literally is dependent on Rex which is not healthy because "Rex" tends to make fun of him and belittle him. It doesnt help that his friends enable his behavior. Being aware of one's own actions is important. If it was reality he could be a danger not only to other but also to himself.

[@thebigg8454]

Robbie's problem is that he's made himself the embodiment of all the things he finds "negative " and forced all of his "positive traits" into puppet.

Because man. Women can have (and are even encouraged to have) problematic behavior men can not (men can not even have some normal behaviors because they have now been deemed problematic. Many of those same behaviors are not only fine in women but often times encouraged to a toxic level).

[@masinalima]

Most likely double standards (jade being a girl and Robbie a boy) but it could also be bc with jade that type of behavior is expected bc of how straight forward she is, and not so much with Robbie ppl kinda push his creepy behavior off to the side a bit so it comes as a bit of a shock🤷‍♀️

[@FunAnimator]

True. You cannot really judge all characters equally when they have different purposes. Jade is meant to be a mean character in the show, and it's not that her behavior is good, but it isn't seen as bad since it is so common. Whereas when other characters like Tori or Robbie do something bad towards someone else it is seen as bad since they are not meant to be bullies, those behaviors are not common in them and that is why they are much more notable. I am not justifying Jade's actions, but what she does doesn't have the same impact compared to if another character did it because she is meant to be mean.

[@friedrichmorgenstern4975]

I have a feeling that everyone in Victorious is traumatized or even has mental disorders...and that thing scares me a lot.

[@solvingaproblemlikemaria]

i've had that feeling too!

[@IncorrectHB]

Everyone on the show is dealing with something. Trina is often ignored and possible neglected by her parents Tori like Trina may be neglected by her parents - both because her mom cheats on her dad and her dad is never there. Cat is most likely traumatized from her brother and may not have gotten much attention from her parents due to them having to take care of her brother. Jade if i remember correctly doesn't have the best relationship with her dad. Beck i think doesn't have a good relationship with his parents which is why he moved out, but i personally think he is just have a rebellious phase Finally, Andre has to deal with his grandmother who has some sort of mental issue. The whole show is a bit missed up when you think about it

[@solvingaproblemlikemaria]

@@IncorrectHB jade's parents are divorced, right? yeah. Trina is constantly told she's talentless and worthless by everyone, even people she considers her friends. Tori's had to be her mother figure, because as you said, her parents neglect them.

Matt Bennett made an otherwise kinda terrible character half likeable and tolerable because of the humour he brought to the role. Similar to David Schwimmer with Ross in Friends. However I also think Robbie also had one of the best character developments on the show. In the last season he had outgrown Rex and become more mature, grounded and confident but while still being his dorky and weird self. He got a pretty girl to go to the dance with him and she genuinely enjoyed his company. He acted normally and didn’t say or do anything to weird her out. AND he kissed Cat, rather smoothly too.

These analysis videos are always interesting because you have to take in everything on the screen in the show, even though there are most definitely bits that were thrown in during the show for comedic of episodic purposes and not intended to further a character. We as the audience have no sure fire way to say what is canon and what isn't, so you have to take it all in, and that's my issue with many sitcom type shows: after a while the creators care less and less about making complete characters and just care about the laughs or story of that one episode, so you start to lose some of the realness of certain characters. That being said, in regards to Robbie, I don't think much realness was lost because characters like him to exist in real life (bar the use of the puppet). Many people portray themselves to be harmless but then express their toxic traits in ways that allow them to not take full responsibility, this is commonly seen when a person will say "I have no filter for jokes, I make jokes about everyone and everything" and then say a blatantly sexist/racist/homophobic/etc statement and then based on the REACTION they say "oh it was a joke, you know me!" so they can not take responsibility for the statement. I believe that is what Robbie does, except he expresses through Rex as said in the video, and that concept is very present in real life.

Robbies not a bad character. It’s Rex I have a problem with

[@Mr.Murasakino]

idk know the exact lore between robbie and rex but you do know robbie is most likely in *control* of rex? idk why people don't think about this.

[@giovannigiovanni.7220]

@@Mr.Murasakino Rex is possible Supernatural.

[@Mr.Murasakino]

@@giovannigiovanni.7220 true but there is more evidence leaning that robbie controls rex. for an example in the episode where rex gets damaged not once did he "scream in agony" or move when robbie was away from rex.

[@giovannigiovanni.7220]

@@Mr.Murasakino Yeah but he did talk without Robbie in the team consular episode.

@@giovannigiovanni.7220 last time I checked that episode claimed to be non cannon.

Dude Robbie and Rex's relationship is me and my conscience relationship and it scares me

[@augustinensang3109]

Pretty much something like that. Robbie is pretty self-loathing. He even admits to hating himself for years.

[@a_gurl596]

@@augustinensang3109 yes. Robbie/me: *crying* Rex/conscience: why are you crying you look ridiculous. Robbie/me: idkk Rex/conscience: ok please stop. Robbie/me: *cries even harder*

[@its.raigzz8579]

This is making me realise I'm more like Robbie than I thought

[@Lunabyes]

I'd love a video analyzing Jade and Cat's friendship! They're complete opposites but they still get along well. Jade only ever lets her guard down properly for Beck.. and Cat. She also only ever stays over at Beck's.. and Cat's. The only one who can touch Jade is Beck.. and Cat. Jade loves Cat, she'll do anything to make her happy and she can't bare to see her upset, and I've always wondered why that is considering they're polar opposites and Jade's trust issues. I'd love to see your take on their relationship!

[@sevenseasonsofbrown]

You put so much effort into these analyses , I really respect you for that 😄😄 keep up the great videos :)

[@JayniacJr]

Thank you for saying that!

[@thetypingavocado574]

I think Rex is apart of Robbie that he doesn't want to show with himself. I think that Rex is his subconscious mind, while Robbie is the conscious mind. I think he has Mommy issues, and his parents don't support him. Robbie could be seen as an insecure teen in all of us, but later he gets more confident. Neither way I love Robbie's character, and he's my favorite. Also, I would love a video for CABBIE!

[@eph_loves_80s74]

Robbie is my favourite too. He seems different to the rest. He doesn’t speak urban or dresses bad boyish. He’s not the same as many of his friends.

[@saphirawinters7028]

That puppet would always scare me. Especially the dead lifeless eyes.

[@MadankiNagabalan]

Could you do an analysis on Quinn and Logans relationship from Zoey 101

[@helenamariabs]

the relationship video, please go go go

[@Vegeta241]

Loving the Victorious videos, but I am still holding out hope that you do another Total Drama analysis. I believe the two characters you said you were most interested in doing were Duncan and Courtney, and honestly, either one of them would be a good choice.

[@JayniacJr]

Don't worry, I do plan on doing at least one more TDI video

[@ceciliarodalv1402]

First I thought, hey, Robbie is not a pervert! The pervert is Rex! And then I remembered that I'm not a child anymore and it's time to stop thinking that rex is an enchanted puppet.

[@internetlexi]

We NEED a Cat + Robbie analysis video!

[@luna4452]

Didn't expect this to be depressing

[@karamaulud6832]

[@RitzBritz333]

The alliteration you do at the beginning of your analysis videos are pure gold. You are a wordsmith and it gives me goosebumps everytime!

[@JayniacJr]

Thank you very much.

[@hoodwinkedwriting4237]

Robbie and Cat are my favorite characters! I would love to see a video on their relationship

[@augustinensang3109]

Same

[@austindrinksfanta]

My favorite part of these videos are the alliterations at the beginning lol so funny and it's actually pretty hard to do

[@cordyceps7531]

Even the men in his life aren’t good to him. In the prison special, Andre and Beck don’t let him sleep in the bed, which just seems very out of character for them.

[@eph_loves_80s74]

True. Sinjin is though and Burf. Sikowitz didn’t give him a cold shoulder and Lane helped him a lot.

[@gabrielasteinmetz1928]

Yess a video of rob and cat pleasee! Have a good christmas, happy holiday!!

[@peraoakley874]

Your victorious episode are so interesting I would love a cat and Robbie episode and any other victorious videos

[@emuhlay6727]

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE. TURN IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@superstaractress101]

Also, I think Rex is a symptom of a split personality. An epitomical product of trauma. Thanks for all your videos! You can see I binge them 😂 some requests for the future? Analysis of Glee characters? Orrr -analysis of Carly Shay (she wasn’t as generic as she seemed, I think) -Spencer Shay (there was something fascinating, but ‘off’ about him -Sikowitz -Jade and Cat’s relationship -Carly and Freddie’s relationship

[@summer_the_rae]

I honestly felt like Robbie was such a Jewish stereotype. His personality is just "gross awkward nerd who's allergic to everything." Also, I think him celebrating Christmas wasn't because his family doesn't practice Judaism, but because the writers forgot he was Jewish. This is extremely common in TV shows. They mention that the character is Jewish a couple times, give them stereotypical traits, but them have them celebrate Christmas in all of the Christmas episodes. Writers don't give a damn about doing even the tiniest bit of extra research to realize that just because Christmas can be secular, doesn't mean it's universal.

[@felixflax19]

Same - the constant emasculation of Robbie also feels like a subtle act of antisemitism in my opinion and it also makes the ethnic change of himself in Rex make a more bizarre sort of sense - if Robbie is projecting traits on to Rex his choice to make Rex “urban”/racial might be a way of making sense of the cognitive dissonance that comes with experiencing antisemitism while also being white - I really wish someone would write fanfiction exploring him but I have yet to find any so I’m working on one right now, although it also is exploring Cat’s trauma

Damn at first I thought his intro was pretty corny, but now it's stuck in my head and I can't stop singing it randomly at times.

Gotcha!

[@UhmmHi_]

I wish he would’ve mentioned what Rex said about robbies parents in that one episode when they got stuck in becks van, and when beck mentioned he lives in the van in his parents garage Rex said at least you have parents and Robbie told him to stop and that some things are private

[@nateharris5012]

As someone who is Jewish, a lot of us celebrate cristmas not as a religious holiday but because it's just nice to give gifts

[@superstaractress101]

Fuck. I think this is one of my all-time favorite videos of yours. I can’t decide whether Robbie, Jade or Cat is the most complex. I wish they’d all get their own adult drama, dark spin-off series.

[@100colorpencils6]

Please make a video on this:Unrelated but is everyone just going to ignore that all these kids are rich or have infinite money. Like they go out to eat all the time and they are always just able to pay for things. Examples: Robbie paid for a window repair when he broke a rich guy's window. Tori was able to just buy a new phone like it was nothing. They were able to buy at least $500 worth of ice cream for a Kesha concert. Cat is always binge buying whatever she wants. During the secret Santa gift exchange, Robbie was able to buy a cotton candy machine and cat was able to buy an original movie prop. Like what the heck.

[@JayniacJr]

Seriously though! Where are they getting this money?

[@strbourne]

I know you don’t watch Space:1999, but PLEASE analyze the relationship of Helena Russel and John Koenig! I love your content!

[@strbourne]

Edit: The relationship of Tony Verdeschi and Maya The Psychon is also really interesting, but it's in season 2 which is much more shallow than season 1
