Fat Abbott (Character)
Fat Abbott is the main character of the TV show, The Fat Abbott Show, who was seen in the Season Two episode "Clubhouses". He is a parody of Fat Albert, the main character from Bill Cosby's cartoon Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids.
Background
In "Clubhouses", his show is watched multiple times by the boys throughout the episode. He and the rest of his gang are shown to be foul-mouthed and armed people who regularly threaten to kill each other. In one of his episodes, he advises a girl that she should trap her abusive stepfather in a bear trap, which eventually gives Stan the idea of getting revenge on his stepfather.
His show is briefly mentioned by Cartman in "Rainforest Shmainforest".
Appearance
Fat Abbott resembles his parodied character, being very obese and with short black hair, and wearing a red sweater with a white collar, blue jeans, and white sneakers. Despite being referred to as a cartoon character, he has the same body shape as a typical South Park character.
