The Underrated of 2006

Eduardo
"Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends," Cartoon Network

You know him as: The big, purple "protector friend" with a Spanish accent

Why we like him: Despite his hulking stature, pointy teeth and skull-shaped belt buckle, Eduardo is really a big baby who gets scared easily. He'll use his strength, however, to defend his friends. He's also very nurturing, which is why he loves his Beanie Baggies collection and his pink squeak toy Paco.

Where else you've seen him: Um, hello? He's imaginary. Maybe you're mistaking him for the monster in "Where the Wild Things Are."
