Everything about Filburt totally explained
» See also Filbert (disambiguation)
Filburt Turtle and sometimes as
Filburt . In the comic book his name is spelled
Filbert. On Murray's website and in the episodes "Born to Spawn" his name is spelled as
Filburt.
Doug Lawrence provided Filburt's voice.
Whenever Filburt feels uncomfortable or disturbed he's known to say, "I'm nauseous! I'm nauseous!". He also occasionally says, "Oh boy". He also popularized the phrase "Turn the page, wash your hands."
Filburt becomes age 21 in the episode "Born to Spawn."
Martin Olson, a writer, described the decision when Nickelodeon gave the "okay" for the marriage of Filburt and Paula Hutchinson as one of the most memorable moments of the production. Olson said that the executives at first didn't like the idea; linear character development didn't exist in
Nicktoons. Murray convinced the executives to allow for the marriage to occur.
Character
Filburt, described on the Australian website as "nerdy" and "
neurotic,"
bears many
phobias.
Filburt, a former "genius," "babe magnet," and "star athlete," became ruined by a case of "unrequited love."
The
Nickelodeon South East Asia website states "think of
Woody Allen when you think of Filburt."
His birth place is
Kerplop-it-goes Island (named after the
Galápagos Islands); on his 21st birthday, as dictated by nature, he's required to go back to the island for a period of time.
Filburt and
Dr. Paula Hutchison have four children, Gilbert, Shellbert, Norbert, and Missy who all came from the same egg. Gilbert and Shellbert look exactly like Filburt while Missy is a miniature version of Hutchison. Norbert, on the other hand, has Filburt's eyes but oddly resembles Heffer. Norbert also often thinks that
Rocko is his father. Filburt actually holds the record number of jobs on the series: nine. These include a cashier at a grocery store (Rocko's Happy Sack), cashier at Kind-of-A-Lot-O-Comics (Power Trip), license checker at the Department O' Motor Vehicles (Skid Marks), film runner at the GooglePlex Cinemas (Popcorn Pandemonium), lounge singer (The Lounge Singer), Christmas tree salesman (Rocko's Modern Christmas), photographer (Hair Licked), cook at Stuff on a Stick (Pranksters), and a food sample carrier (Put out to Pasture). In one episode, it's shown that when between jobs, Filburt apparently supports himself by
recycling an enormous collection of empty cans in his trailer at the Patch-O-Heaven Trailer Park; this prompted Rocko to comment, "So
this is why he never works."
A running gag in the series is how multiple, mundane things give Filbert
nausea. This is always followed with Filbert repetitivly saying, "I'm nauseous, I'm nauseous, I'm nauseous..."
