The trailers make her look like 'the normal one', but she's really not. She's actually delightfully morbid.

It's not real, it's just a comedic effect to poke fun at themselves by using a character or passing remark. Doesn't mean they know.

Chowder never had a fourth wall. They built 3 walls and said "Meh, that'll do."

10 years ago | Likes 871 Dislikes 3

Technically that /is/ the fourth wall. An imaginary barrier between the audience and the stage.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

They had no fourth wall because the characters interacted with the audience as if it were normal.
