My Doug related theories
1) Doug Funnie shows signs of insanity.
He has serious blankouts in bad moments, even in the middle of the traffic. He had almost died more than once!
He acts his fantasies, not seeing reality around him. In "Doug to the Rescue", it's the worst since he starts to act like Quailman in the middle of the class.
In "Doug's Older Woman", he cannot make a difference between fantasy and reality since he thought fantasizing about Cassandra asking him out on date with her until Skeeter pointed out it did happen.
There is no way the things Porkchop does actually happened!
Even psychopathy, if you think about it.
He got angry at Cassandra for using him, and yet he hypocritically did the exact same to her.
He had a fantasy in "Doug's Career Anxiety." Connie was nowhere to seen. Did she die?
He had a fantasy of pixelated Roger being shot in "Doug's Lost Weekend."
He wished death on Guy in "Doug Gets It All."
In "Doug's Fair Lady", he had a very creepy smile on his face.
Since Quailman villains are based on people Doug antagonizes, it only means Dark Quail is based on Doug's dark side.
Since Doug is stalkerish towards Patti, I bet things won't end up well. If "Doug" was for mature audiences, he would be collecting everything from lost pins to used tampons.
2) Roger Klotz has autism.
Roger's not doing well in school. He's repeated the 6th grade three times for not understanding the material given to him. He's immature for his age, and causes troubles for everyone else by being a troublemaker.
He has difficulties with socializing. He has showed clear signs of wanting friends, like in "Doug Vs. The Klotzoid Zombies", but doesn't know how to make them.
In "Doug's Secret Admirer", "Doug's Worst Nightmare", "Doug's Runaway Journal", "Doug's Big News" and "Doug Graduates", it's confirmed he has dyslexia. His handwriting is big and child-liked like most disabled people have.
In "Doug's Cookin'", he got panicked and tried to "solve the problem" by himself, not understanding what "6-8" means.
In "Doug's New Teacher", Roger clearly struggles with reading. When he read text out loud, it's clearly heard he stumbled.
He's fixated in art. In "Doug's Mural Mania", he's that talented he can paint a breathtaking picture only using a one color. His hobby is ballet, confirmed canon in "Doug Wears Tights." "Doug's No Dummy", "Doug's Pet Capades" and "Doug's Sour Singingbird" show Roger also has a great voice and can play guitar. He also loves joining the school plays.
Vitamin D deficiency isn't only linked to rickets, which fans also speculate him to have, but also to autism and other intellectual disabilities.
Billy West, the voice of both Doug and Roger, is in the Autism Spectrum in real life.
Now I have a reason to think why Mrs. Klotz got a divorce and why Mr. Klotz hasn't visited him until they became rich. (In Nickelodeon series, it's subverted he's abusive or negletful.)
3) Guy Graham isn't a bad person.
Guy Graham is described to be "a very handsome but rather selfish and inconsiderate kid", and also "serves as a secondary antagonist and is Doug Funnie's (one-sided) rival for Patti Mayonnaise."
But is that rich spoiled brat really scummy? Or does Doug only make him sound like that, because he hates him?
Quailman and Quaildad: Guy got surprised, when he saw Mr. Funnie playing the drums like a professional. After he finished, he clapped with everyone else. Since Guy is confirmed to be a fan of disco music, he could've bought one of the vinyls. It's assumable the music The Psychedellic Fuss played is similiar to Abba's.
Quailman, The Un-Quail Saga: Just like Chalky Studebaker, Guy might also suffer from inferiority complex. In a journalism contest, Guy wanted to make sure they win. He accidently said how he wants to make sure he wins the contest. Maybe he's pressured to perfection by his parents and told how he has to be perfect, no matter what it costs.
Doug's 1st Movie: Everyone got angry at Guy for attempting to kill Herman. No one have ever seen Herman. Patti and Guy didn't even meet him before the ending of the movie! How he could've known is the monster harmless or not? Maybe he actually thought Herman was a threat and tried to protect everyone from the certain doom. He tried to capture the monster in secret, because he wanted to avoid mass panic.
Doug has a tendency to demonize Guy, because he's also after Patti. In his Quailman comics, Guy's either a villain or a coward. In "Doug Gets It All", Doug makes an animation of Guy getting squashed under the anvil! What a little psychopath! Guy probably saw some of Doug's sketches and got offended how he's portraited in them. Maybe he did recognize that donkey but said nothing specific about it. Maybe he actually wants to be part of Doug's friend group, but he doens't give him a possibility. He's not even trying to get to know him. No wonder Guy hates Doug, even though he still remains polite to him.
4) Guy and Roger are boyfriends.
Anyone who've read this, know where I'm going after.
This theory gives some Doug episodes, like "Doug, Quailman VI, The Dark Quail Saga", "Doug's Midnight Kiss" and "Doug Plays Cupid", completely different interpretation if you believe Doug being an Unreliable Narrator.
5) Roger's mansion in Disney series used to be Beebe's playhouse.
It looks like a princess' castle, something little girls in princess phase would love.
It has a garden surronding it.
One of its colors is pastel pink.
The lobby has stairs you can easily imagine Cinderella walking on them.
It's been deserted for a long time.
It's right next to the Bluff mansion.
6) Guy's real father is Mr. Bluff.
Thinking about it for a while, this would actually make sense.
Guy has facial features similiar with Mr. Bluff's.
He's as ambitious and arrogant as Mr. Bluff.
Guy has a good relationship with him.
He belongs to the club which admires Mr. Bluff and he's the most enthusiastic member of it.
He can ask money from him, whenever it's a dance in Funkytown or having a band in the school consert.
He helps him to cover his tracks about him polluting Lucky Duck Lake.
We never see Guy's parents nor his relationship with them, so it's assumable he visits the Bluffs often.
He's allowed to attempt in exclusive meetings.
How would Beebe, Mrs. Bluff, Ethan and Mr. Graham react if they knew? Does even Guy himself know?
7) Skunky Beaumont was a role model for Roger, Boomer, Ned and Willy.
Skunky has gotten detention and bad grades in school more than once. Who wouldn't be a better teacher for troublemakers than an actual troublemaker?
8) There really IS a ride called Suck Face Tunnel.
But it's for adults only…
9) Judy Funnie was on her periods during Doug on the Road.
That's why she was desperately looking for another bathroom, even after she used the one previously. Anyone who gets periods know how uncomfortable it's to sit on the bench blood leeked on it.
Do you have Doug fan theories of your own?
