— Braxton when about to watch his favorite show "Charleyyy & Friends"
| ||
Braxton Bernard, Sr. (formerly Bowser) is a minor character in the SML series. His real first name was thought to be "Robert", but the video it was revealed in was non-canon, even getting a two-part remake with an entirely different plot, meaning "Robert" is not canonically his real name.
He is Marvin's former archenemy, now friend and is currently the boss of Chef Pee Pee. He is a turtle (later human) who has retired from villainy due to a lack of ambition and becoming a father to his son Junior, which he appears to find annoying but (as the series progresses) deeply loves him. He also has a personal chef named Chef Pee Pee, who he berates and tortures on a regular basis though he never usually fires him. Currently, he spends his days in his bedroom watching Charleyyy and Friends, occasionally hanging out with his former archenemy turned best friend and roommate Mario, commanding and yelling at Chef Pee Pee and being Bowser Junior's father.
History
Dark Childhood
Braxton was born and the presumably only child to Margaret and her unnamed husband. Growing up, Braxton had a rough start and upbringing in life because he was raised by his abusive mother Margaret whom locked him in a cage and also never fed him especially her burned cookies which was his favorite. It's also implied that he had a history with heroin abuse.
Meeting Mario
During his childhood, he used to be friends with Mario, but he would later hate him because of how Mario got more gifts and attention from Margaret than him and started their rivalry because of this.
Teen hood and Meeting Peach
Little is known about Bowser's father other than he always abused him, although he said his father played catch with him when he was young, during his teenage years he used to rob gas stations and killed a girl named Lindsey Brown, an employee because they fought over a keychain, during that time, he became a male prostitute.
Bowser in high school in the 1980's.
He was in high school during the 1980s, during that time he meet Peach, whom he had a crush on. He hinted he was a bit of a troublemaker back in high school, who used to throw Rubik's cubes to nerds during the 9th grade, and also was a bit of a creep, who once took pictures of Peach during her senior prom night, causing her parents to call the cops on him. In 1984, he drafted Crack Bear to kill Mario for a raise, because Peach was in love with Mario, and he wanted to marry Peach, but Crack Bear got arrested for eating crack and Bowser would later forget about him. Bowser graduated in 1985, during his graduation day his father gave him a clown car before leaving for a war and died.
After high school, Mario fell in love with Peach, and they later got marriage on August 29, 1985, which would make Bowser jealous of him and torment him. He began calling him a stupid nerd shortly after.
Adulthood
During his adulthood, he tried kidnapping Princess Peach multiple times which would often cause Mario to rescue her.
On November 17, 2008, Mama Luigi offered Bowser 20 dollars to kidnap Peach in which he accepted. He tried multiple times but failed. Then, he got stuck in a grill which Goomba freed him and later killed Mama Luigi.
Meeting Junior and Failed Relationship
Right after he killed Mama Luigi, his son Bowser Junior was born. He later dated Shelby, but she left him leaving Bowser heartbroken. He would later become an anti-hero and started to like watching a TV show called Charleyyy and Friends.
The Kidnapper
After Mario thought that Bowser was the prime suspect, Mario confronted him only to learn Bowser had not done such a thing as it was a new episode day of Charleyyy and Friends.
Then Bowser decided to help him to find her when (unknown to Mario) Charleyyy was presumably kidnapped too. Later on, when they found two Yoshi Eggs, Bowser destroyed his due to it wanting a banana. This led to Bowser using Chef Pee Pee as a replacement only to crush his back and send him into a coma.
The two encountered Sonic, who revealed he'd left Peach due to her being too 'clingy' and not being pregnant with his baby but someone (Mario) else's. And he'd found a clue which could lead to her.
However, Sonic refused to give it to them, leading them to torture him (using British gags/clichés) until he revealed the clue was in the breadbox. Afterwards they tied him up in Mario's car.
After unlocking the box and finding it to be a princess puzzle piece, the two are confronted by Bowser Junior, who's lost a piece. When he reveals it to be from a princess puzzle, the duo realize he was the kidnapper.
After Junior admits to the crime, he takes them to where he locked Peach up, only to find her missing. This led to a full-blown argument between him and Mario after realizing that Peach was gone, and Mario says that he despises him and Junior which causes the latter to assault him for offensive language. After that, Mario then spots a pistol which belonged to Black Yoshi.
The two encounter and confront Black Yoshi, who reveals he'd left his gun in the car. This leads the horrified duo to realize that Sonic had kidnapped her.
Right on Que, the two find an insane Sonic holding a knife to Peach's throat, threatening to kill her for the two torturing him.
When they find him, Sonic uses his speed to overpower Mario and proceeds to beat him. Before he can kill him however, Black Yoshi arrives and shoots Sonic in the head, killing him.
After Sonic was killed, Mario is enraged at Black Yoshi because of how Sonic was the only one who knew the baby's location. After Mario persuaded Black Yoshi, He and Mario decide to look for the baby.
After Mario and Peach finally thinking that they would restarting dating, Bowser says “World Star, World Star!”
Moving Out and Rekindling Friendship
A year later, since his house was burned down by his son Junior. Bowser, Chef Pee and the latter are moved into an apartment.
After Mario and his family lost their house due to how Mario losing money, Bowser decided to let him and his family to stay and he and Mario are now best friends and thus putting an end to their past as enemies.
After Peach dumped Mario and had no interest in him, Bowser begins to feel sorry for his now best friend. So, he decided to help him find one.
Changing Junior's Personality and Reforming a Father and Son Relationship
A year later, after having enough of Junior's bad behavior and his nonsense, Bowser forces him to be sent to military school. When his son got back from military school, he was happy to see him well behaved. He asks his son about what he did there. When Junior snaps out of his disciplinary behavior, Bowser was shocked and angry and calls Brooklyn Guy. Then Brooklyn Guy could have the chance of beating Bowser Junior, but Bowser tells him that he doesn't need him anymore since Brooklyn Guy fixed him at first, but Bowser Junior snapped out of it. Then Bowser finally realizes that deep-down, despite the problems that he and Junior faced throughout the past years, He couldn't live without Junior and finally agrees to become a better father to him.
Moving Out (Again)
Four months later, thanks to the destruction of the Koopalings and as well as the chainsaw that Goodman spotted, he and the rest of the family are evicted from the apartment by the now villainous and angry Goodman and forced them into a hotel.
After being kicked out of the apartment and being in a hotel for 1 day, The gang are greeted by 'Brooklyn T. Guy' who informs them that instead of rebuilding their old house, they've decided to move them to a new one.
Bowser, Mario and Rosalina visit the place and, despite learning the previous 26 people living there were violently murdered, they happily agree. Though they are strangely warned by 'Brooklyn Guy' to not ever enter a mysterious door inside the house under any circumstances.
Current Life
Nine months later, after his son Junior won 2 Tickets, the latter give one to him and made him happy because it was Father's Day.
Eight months later, When Bowser got tired of being old, Junior decided to turn him younger by using the Fountain Of Youth!.
Six months later, Bowser got some time with Junior's friend Joseph. This leads to a furious Junior about how he though Joseph stole his dad, so Junior decides to kill Joseph have his father have some father-and-son-time with him and Bowser agrees.
As of today, Bowser has officially retired from villainy and spends his days staying in his bedroom watching his long-running show Charleyyy and Friends, abusing and commanding Chef Pee Pee to cook him what he wants and being an on and off great father to Junior.
Personality
Bowser has a personality. He has multiple types of personalities (not Multiple Personality Disorder) that he generally follows throughout the channel.
On most occasions, Bowser has shown to be evil, cruel, sadistic, impatient, demanding, and easily tempered, and gets into his angriest side over little things. In later videos, he seems to take pleasure in torturing his slave chef, Chef Pee Pee, and is sometimes driven up the wall with Junior's bratty and spoiled behavior; yet still loves him just the same.
This is to the point of deliberately causing pain, misery, torture, and extra work for Chef Pee Pee just so he can't be happy. Though a very caring father in Switching Bodies!, it is revealed he literally gives Bowser Junior beatings almost every day for no reason whatsoever other than for his enjoyment. This was never spoken of or done again in later videos. He can also be bent on revenge, such as when he outright murdered Mama Luigi for defeating him.
In earlier videos, Bowser was shown to be a psychopath who is a danger to some people around him. This is best shown in the Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures series, where he is fairly insane. In these videos, he has raped Peach, murdered Mama Luigi, brainwashed Yoshi, killed both Black Yoshi and Luigi, wronged Mario to the point of no longer wanting to live, slit the throat of a Goomba for petty teasing, sent Crack Bear to murder Mario and Mama Luigi, attempted to sacrifice Peach to The Eagle, and more.
Bowser has also caused his family and Chef Pee Pee distress at times this includes videos such as Bowser Junior's Birthday Cake, where he threatens to cut Chef Pee Pee's and feed it to Bowser Junior. Or Bowser Junior's Summer School, where he threatens to murder Chef Pee Pee if Bowser Junior fails his exam. In earlier videos, Bowser has shown no remorse for the evil he committed, and it is easily some of the worst and most evil threats Bowser has ever made in his entire life.
Bowser is a sore loser. This is best shown in Bowser Junior's Easter Egg Hunt, where he cheats by beating up Bowser Junior, having Chef Pee Pee hide the eggs and tell him where they are, breaking his own rules, and yelling at Toad because Toad found more. Eventually, when Bowser Junior found the golden Easter egg, Bowser breaks down crying. This is mentioned and brought up again in Bowser Junior's Easter Wish! when he left to Canada due to his shame of being beaten by Bowser Junior.
Bowser has been arrested nearly a few times throughout the series. An example of this is in Bowser Junior's Cellphone where he was accused of prank calling people but was also released in the next video possibly indicating that he had received parole.
Aside from his reputation as a sore loser, he is also shown to be quite a hypocrite. This is shown in Black Yoshi's Koolaid when Bowser orders a medium-rare steak from Chef Pee Pee, but once it is cooked claims that he ordered a hot dog since Bowser realized that he did not want steak, leading to Chef Pee Pee complaining, but it gets worse when Chef Pee Pee decides to give up in Bowser's Broken TV after he realizes that he ordered a cheeseburger and not a vegetable casserole. In Bowser Goes To The Movies!, he is loud and obnoxious during the movie, but leaves and complains about how others were loud and obnoxious during the movie.
In earlier videos, Bowser was a well-meaning but problem-causing comedic relief character. Sometimes he is used for comedy, and his stupider and nicer side is explored. This side of him is best represented in the Mario and Bowser's Stupid and Crazy Adventures series. This also ties in with the totally insane Bowser with crazy antics from the Bowser Juice Infomercials, and Toad Away.
Despite his apparent lazinesszy, Bowser is sometimes driven up the wall with Junior's bratty, selfish, and narcissistic behavior leading to the former punishing him without hesitation such as in Bowser Junior's Doll! However, there are a few instances where Bowser has actually hesitated to punish Junior such as in Bowser's Broken TV, Bowser Junior's 9th Birthday!, The Sticky Situation, and Bowser Junior's Cheeseburger to name a few.
He has thrown childish fits at times too such as when Bowser became childishly crazy in Bowser's Broken TV when Bowser had a nervous breakdown and threw a childlike fit over missing the Charleyyy and Friends Super Special.
Bowser is addicted to Charleyyy and Friends. He is an extremely obsessed super fan of the franchise. He sometimes watches it rather than spending time with his friends and family, almost straining his relationship with his son. In the first few appearances of Charleyyy and Friends, he was merely fond of the show rather than obsessed with it.
On several occasions, Bowser is shown to be racist against African Americans. He accused Black Yoshi of kidnapping Peach because he is a black man. In Black Yoshi's Job, he was reluctant to hire Black Yoshi as a babysitter because of his African American heritage. He also called Black Yoshi "Blackey" after getting angry over Black Yoshi not letting Bowser ride him (because Yoshi was letting Mario ride him, making Bowser jealous). Ironically, he idolizes Charleyyy, who is black. Also, Bowser has admitted that's he's black, and he is voiced by a black guy.
Bowser has also been shown to have factually incorrect views about females. In The Big Thanksgiving, he gets Mario to stop trying to save Peach because "women sometimes just need to be quiet", implying he knows they can't contribute to a conversation or be useful like men can. In Bowser Junior's Mom, he calls Bowser Junior's mother a "ho" after he thinks she's left them once again, saying that that's why he has trust issues with women, following up with "hoes gonna be hoes."
In some videos, Bowser can also be an extremely irritating person, up to the point that it makes him an unpleasant person to be around. He showed he was almost as immature as his son in the end of Bowser Junior's Happy Meal. However, the episode Bowser Goes To The Movies! brings this behavior the most out of him, where he single-handedly ruined the movie for the moviegoers.
Bowser has shown signs of suffering from an antisocial personality disorder. Being cruel to animals is one of the first signs of ASPD, and Bowser shows this. In Bowser Junior's Pet!, Bowser is overly cruel to both the skunk and the Rabbid beating both to death although this was entirely self-defence. Another sign is not caring about your family sometimes. In earlier videos, Bowser was shown to barely care for Bowser Junior. He also outright states he hopes his mother Margaret will die soon so he will get the insurance money in Chef Poo Poo's Kitchen Disaster!, as well as forgets his mom's birthday and gives her a last-minute Mother's Day gift due to lack of preparation. Another sign is being "sexually deviant." Bowser is in a "smash and dash on occasion" relationship with Peach, but has had multiple ex-wives, watches pornography, as well as had previously hiring a stripper named Candy to strip for him. This shows that he isn't very loyal to any of his sources of attraction. Yet another sign is his remorseless murders in the much earlier videos and his enjoyment of other's suffering. Bowser gets a sense of joy from Chef Pee Pee's suffering although he has decided to change after the events of Bowser Junior goes to Military School.
Bowser can also be considered as a TV personality due to his commercials and infomercials.
He seems to be bisexual for willingly having sex with Cody (shapeshifted into Chef Pee Pee) multiple times, stating "he likes it in the butt sometimes" to Goodman, while also being attracted to Shelby and having a kid with her.
Bowser's physical strength also varies from video to video from being barely able to drag a toy box in Bowser Junior's Doll! to beating up a live shark with his bare hands in The Fishing Trip!
Bowser is also shown to be allergic to cherries as hinted in Bowser's Dinner Date.
Despite all of this in early videos, he is shown to care for Junior and known for hanging out with Mario on occasions and nowadays finds Mario as a friend/roommate and finds Junior as a son except for Chef Pee Pee.
As of newer videos, Bowser nowadays has been noted as a still strict but yet kind, mature, caring, loving father, meaning that he had been changed over the past years.
Appearance
Bowser is an overweight Koopa who wears four spiked bracelets with two on each arm. He also boasts the same flame-orange hair, pale yellow skin, and peach-colored plastron as his son. He has red eyes, three long fingernails/claws with each finger on the underside and chubby feet. Bowser seems to appear without his p***s because he keeps mentioning that he got a vasectomy.
As a human Bowser is an overweight above-average height man who is more creepy looking, having fair skin, red eyes, sharp teeth, and a slight stubble. He also has horns on his head and a scar on his left eye. He wears a white tank-top, green shorts that are similar to his son's, and a pair of pink bunny slippers. His favorite snack is assumed to be Doritos. As an example of this assumption is in Bowser's Doritos where he accused Chef Pee Pee of eating his bag of Doritos and in Bowser Junior's Clown Car where he asks Chef Pee Pee to take him to the store to buy some. This could also explain why he is overweight.

Relationships
|
WHAT IS IT?! |
Bowser Junior
Bowser holding a Green Apple in front of Junior.
From around 2013 to mid-late 2016, Bowser and his son were shown to have a hostile relationship. During around the time where Junior was acting bratty and selfish, Bowser couldn't stand him and abuses and punishes him whenever he breaks one of his belongings or him whining, or when he interrupts him while he's watching Charleyyy and Friends (In Bowser Junior's 11th Birthday!, it is revealed that these interruptions are the only reason Bowser is even alive in the first place, otherwise he would've died from watching TV all the time, laughing, and basically ignoring his personal health). Since Bowser Junior stole his Easter egg hunting championship title in Bowser Junior's Easter Egg Hunt, he starts crying and leaves for Canada because he was no longer the Easter egg hunting champion.
During the old SML house era, the two had a hostile relationship at the beginning. But ever since they move into the apartment since their house got burned down, it has been true that their relationship has become more hostile than friendly, showing that Bowser has no respect in Junior or has earned his trust.
In the Military school series, Bowser finally had enough of his bratty behaviour and sends him to military school to teach him to be disciplined and respect to others. Since Junior was never the same, Bowser feels sorry for him and apologizes for what he did and decides to make it up by taping the table back together with him.
Since they moved to the new house since they got kicked out by Goodman, their relationship being to soften as the years progressed.
However, as of 2017, Bowser is now friendly to Junior and seem to get along with him but however the examples of him threatening Junior is Bowser Junior's Walkie Talkie.
Status: Neutral (Friends on Junior's side)
Chef Pee Pee
Bowser and Chef Pee Pee watching Charleyyy and Friends together.
Bowser is very abusive toward Chef Pee Pee, most notably for when he forces Chef Pee Pee to cook, and if Chef Pee Pee doesn't get the cooking right or somewhat messes up, Bowser abuses Chef Pee Pee, he may also be abusive to Chef Pee Pee for no good reason as well. He can also be very cruel to him in other ways such as only paying him with very few coins but unlike Mr. Spacely from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon "The Jetsons" who often fires George for trivial things Bowser often rebukes Chef Pee Pee in various painful, disgusting, and torturous other ways such as beating him up, making him clean toilets with his bare hands on top of forcing into not washing them, threatening him into cleaning toilets with his tongue, and lashing at him with a belt.
However, there have been times when they have been friendly towards each other, such as in Bowser's Soup - he let him watch Charleyyy and Friends with him, and in Home Alone when he invited him to a monster truck rally, although it ended up being terrible.
Bowser also has some weird sexual fetish towards Chef Pee Pee, as evidenced in SuperPowers! when he let Chef Pee Pee (who was really Cody disguised as Chef Pee Pee), "get in bed" with him.
Though Bowser did have sexual activities with the Voodoo Doll in Bowser Junior's Voodoo Doll! so Chef Pee Pee gets indirectly raped by bowser. Being that the doll is suppose to be Chef Pee Pee. It could be the reason why bowser liked it so much.
Status: Enemies (Friends on rare occasions)
Mario
Thumbnail of Mario and Bowser's Stupid and Crazy Adventure. Episode 2.
Before Season 8, Bowser and Mario formerly had bad blood against each other. Although Mario and Bowser hate each other, but in some cases, he is seen to have a bit of a friendship with him like in the Mario and Bowser's Stupid and Crazy Adventures series where he is shown helping Mario in their adventure.
After these long years, their rivalry finally came to an end in “Mario's Family Moves Out!“ when Mario lost his house due to the fact of how Mario is losing money, Bowser decides to do the right thing by letting Mario and his family in the apartment and letting him watch Charleyyy and Friends with him, and after that, they started to get along very well since Mario moved in with him, but then their rivalry returns in the episode “The Competition!“, where they argue about how their sons is either the best or the worst, but in the end, both of their sons lost and Mario tells the reason why Jeffy is the better son is because he get more views and Bowser finally agrees. After this episode, their rivalry has not returned because in later seasons and videos, they still seem to be good terms with each other, with Bowser even inviting Mario for a trip to the casino in "The Pantry!", and, unlike Jeffy and Black Yoshi, He does not bother Mario because he only stays in his room watching TV while Mario stays in the game room watching TV too. But for now, they are still good friends.
Status: Friends
Jeffy
Jeffy and Bowser don't seem to have a good relationship due to how Bowser accidentally gave Jeffy the flu by coughing in his mouth in Jeffy's Flu Shot!, how Bowser acted harshly towards Jeffy in The Competition! and how Bowser mistook the shock collar remote for the TV remote and repeatedly used it, shocking Jeffy and indirectly framing Mario in Jeffy's Punishment!, as well as how Jeffy was paid by Mario to break Bowser's trophy in Jeffy and Junior Sneak Out! Jeffy, however, did congratulate Bowser when he won Charleyyy's underwear in Jeffy and Junior's Big Heist!, but other after that, for the most part they seem to be on good terms, even if they don't have much interaction with each other.
Status: Neutral (Enemies on rare occasions)
Charleyyy
He has been an obsessed fan of him since 2013. Whenever Charleyyy makes everyone laugh about how his daily life he has been doing, Bowser laughs at his jokes. He is obsessed with him to the point where it strains his relationship with other characters, such as oftentimes ignoring his son Junior, and forcing Chef Pee Pee to do all the household chores just so he can watch Charleyyy. He has tried to meet Charleyyy in-person multiple times, such as during conventions or fan meetups, however a running gag throughout the series is that he is unable to meet Charleyyy because they are both played by Lovell
Status: Neutral (Friends on Charleyyy's Side)
Cody and Joseph
It's clear that Bowser doesn't really care for Junior's two friends. The only time that shows him being a flat out jerk is when he locks them in a closet in Bowser's Mom. Another time is when he doesn't let them stay overnight during the purge. In the case of Cody, however, he doesn't know he has a secret relationship with him, such when Cody disguised himself as Chef Pee Pee and they "banged", much to Junior's anger.
Although, Joseph and Bowser got along in "Bowser Junior's Daddy Problem!"
Status: Neutral
Margaret
Margaret is Bowser's mother. During the time when Bowser was a child, The two had a very strict relationship because of the large amounts of abuse that Bowser gets from her and she never feeds him and locks him in a cage.
Bowser’s Minions
Bowser’s relationship with his minions is very similar to his relationship to Chef Pee Pee, is very quick tempered with them, and assaults them when they mess up their duties or talk poorly of him. An example of the latter can be seen in Koopa's New Job, where he tricks a Koopa Troopa into thinking he’s getting a new job, but instead ends up getting Chef Pee Pee to cook and murder him due to the Koopa Troopa venting about him behind his back. He’s also shown to get angry at Shy Guy in The Perfect Plan! for not pronouncing bomb correctly. He also doesn’t seem to care about his minions when they are in need of assistance. He doesn’t bother helping Crack Bear out of jail, most likely due to him ruining his plans by going after cocaine. With that said however he isn’t completely heartless towards them, and is shown to willing work with them. An example can be shown with Kamek in The Perfect Plan!, where he is shown liking his idea on how to kill Mario. Also in The Perfect Plan! he shows some sympathy for Goomba due to his lack of hands, and even offers to let him pour the poison in the acid; however he gets frustrated with him when he spills the poison and doesn’t show any sympathy for making him cry. However the aforementioned video is likely non-canon so it is unknown if the latter of which is likely true.
Status: Neutral (mostly on the toxic end.)
Romantic Relationships
Bowser has not had many romantic relationships throughout the channel. Toward the beginning of the series, Bowser constantly kidnapped Peach so she would become his girlfriend and/or wife. This led Peach to dislike him, and she went for Mario instead.
When Peach became pregnant in Season 2 of Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures, Mario was convinced that she would conceive his child when it was in fact Bowser's child: Bowser Junior. After Mario and Luigi's stupid and dumb adventures, Bowser tried to reconcile with Mario and Peach but he never made up for what he did, leading Mario to rival him. In The Koopa Kids!, it is revealed that Bowser may have had five children with his ex-wife Sheila Perkins. In Super Bowl Commercials, Bowser mentions another one of his ex-wives, Sharon, who apparently "left him for a black guy" because he was "bigger and better."
Bowser's most prominent romantic relationship was with Peach. In the earlier days, Bowser kidnapped Peach due to an undying love for her (that was not mutual). Their relationship has since smoothed over slightly, with no distinct conflict during the Mario and Bowser's Stupid and Crazy Adventures series. However, in Mario's Beautiful Date!, Bowser and Peach have a "smash and dash on occasion," but aren't exactly a thing yet.
Bowser also hired Candy to strip for him, showing he was most likely romantically (or at least physically) attracted to her.
In Mario's Turtle Problem! Bowser found Pee-wee on the floor, and Bowser wanted to do sexual activity with her, but the relationship failed because Mario killed her before anything happened.

Trivia
- Compared to his Nintendo self, Bowser is a pretty hyper guy himself, but it was made for SuperMarioLogan.
- Braxton is much similar to that of Mammy-Two-Shoes from the Tom and Jerry cartoons as both tend to be loving, caring, and protective towards one of the main characters but are virtually strict.
- He may have Prosopagnosia according to Pop Rocks and Coke due to him falling for Junior and Cody's disguise as Chef Pee Pee.
- He is shown to be one of the strongest characters in SML, since he beats up a lot of people, which sometimes even kills them.
- In Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures, Bowser was the main antagonist and was mostly seen as Mario's arch-rival until Bowser's Biggest Fear, when he started watching Charleyyy and Friends non-stop.
- In earlier videos, Bowser hardly spends any time with his son but still forces Chef Pee Pee to cater to him instead. However, in The Fishing Trip!, he realizes that he's becoming a bad parent and decides to do better.
- Bowser is the first character to have a birthday special.
- He is the 1st character to be mentioned a lot in videos and is usually mentioned more than he appears.
- Bowser is addicted to soap operas, as revealed in Bowser's Biggest Fear.
- However, this may have just been a cover-up to ensure Bowser Junior didn't know that Charleyyy and Friends was a children's television program.
- Similar to Joseph, Bowser and his son are both turtles, while Bowser's mom is in fact a human. However, it is revealed in Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures Season 3 Episode 3 that Bowser is adopted, which also means that he and the Mario Bros. are brothers although this could be non-canon. But Bowser could be an only child.
- Like Chef Pee Pee, Bowser has appeared in a lot of videos lately, even more than Chef Pee Pee himself, because Bowser has videos of his own, but almost every Chef Pee Pee video he is also in.
- Bowser is straight. Most of the time that is.
- Bowser has killed 12 characters.
- He appears in every single episode in the Bowser Junior's Summer School series.
- Bowser is a very bad chef. Examples include Bowser's Dilemma, Bowser's Thanksgiving, and the Chef Pee Pee Quits! series when he has to cook or find ways to get food because Chef Pee Pee quit his job. He is shown to make huge messes and can't even cook a doughnut without it turning into toast. His alternate universe counterpart, Chef Bowser, also proves the same thing too.
- Bowser hates red apples because they remind him of Mario, but loves green ones, as shown in Bowser Loses a Tooth!
- It's odd, however, that green apples don't remind Bowser of Luigi. It's possible he thinks of Mario as red apples more than Luigi as green apples.
- Most of the time when Bowser interacts with other characters, there is a ominous and dramatic violin music in the background.
- He claims himself to be the #1 Charleyyy and Friends fan.
- He claims to be black and has said the N-word a feel times. however, his puppet is white and bald for some reason.
- On Facebook, near the release of Bowser Junior's Easter Wish!, it was revealed that Logan lost the original Bowser plush.
- On Facebook just before the release of Pokemon Part 4, Logan announced that he had bought a Bowser plush from a fan.
- The current Bowser plush has dark green skin compared to the old (2008-2015) Bowser plush (which had light green skin).
- However, in Jeffy's Pet Dinosaur!, Bowser is portrayed by an identical plush, which means the 2015-Present Bowser plush is either lost or retired.
- Logan later confirmed that he replaced the puppet with an identical spare because it got damaged and due to 5 years of wear and tear. He later recycled the eyes to be used on Face Eater for Jeffy's Pen Pal!
- The Bowser puppet was replaced once again since in Junior Tries To Get Grounded!, Logan has cut one of his teeth out for a scene.
- He doesn't have a driver's license as revealed in Bowser's Video Game.
- However, he is shown driving his car in other videos.
- After the events of Bowser's Biggest Fear and its sequel, Bowser is afraid of bananas.
- If Bowser sees one, he gets extremely scared and tries to get rid of it. This happened in Mario and Bowser's Stupid and Crazy Adventures, when he had to go get a banana, but destroyed it instead.
- Bowser is also afraid of empty milk containers after watching the horror movie No Milk in Bowser's Biggest Fear 3. Unlike his fear of bananas, this one has never been mentioned again.
- In Bowser Loses A Tooth!, he claims he is 312 years old. This is impossible, because he stated his mom was turning 200 in Chef Poo Poo's Kitchen Disaster!, but if he's her son, he can't be older than her. This is a major plot hole that most likely wasn't intentional.
- In Bowser Junior's Flu Shot!, it is implied that he had a history of heroin abuse.
- Bowser doesn't simply care about anything but watching Charleyyy and Friends although he has on numerous occasions showed a caring side towards Junior and tends to sometimes punish him when the latter gets into trouble. It's possible that he was trying to follow in his parents' footsteps and develop a strict household around the house.
- In Black Yoshi's Money Problem!, he says that he robbed a gas station as a teenager.
- In Cody's Sister!, it is revealed Bowser sometimes gets drunk and beats Bowser Junior, meaning that he could be an alcoholic although he was never seen drinking in the series.
- Bowser is 6'1" (1.85 meters) tall.
- In The Sticky Situation, Bowser Junior says that Bowser doesn't drink coffee.
- In Bowser Junior's Clown Car!, Bowser stated he graduated high school in 1985 (which coincidentally was the year where Bowser first appeared in the original Super Mario Bros).
- Bowser's secret wish is to let Charleyyy and Friends make a game called "Charleyyy Kart."
- In Bowser Junior's All Nighter!, it is revealed that Bowser gets welfare checks, like Black Yoshi.
- In Bowser Junior's Playtime Problem, Bowser is shown to be very prone to sunburns.
- The Bowser plush used in videos is a rare Mario Party 5 plush, worth $75–130 US dollars on eBay. It is unknown how he got the plushes, but Logan probably bought them when they were still in stock at the Nintendo World Store in 2007.
- He seems to be one of the more unintelligent SML characters alongside Jeffy and Black Yoshi (despite that he is much smarter than both characters respectively) due to plenty of reasons:
- Most of the time, he doesn't care about his family, friends, or anything else, but Charleyyy & Friends. Although in later videos, Bowser is shown to be much more caring towards Junior and mostly spends his time with Mario.
- He locked Cody and Joseph in the closet just to make his mother think that he has a good son, while Cody and Joseph probably wouldn't do anything to make her think that Bowser Junior is an awful child.
- Bowser once mentioned killing a girl named Lindsay Brown when he was at a gas station because they fought over a key chain. Bowser mentioned this while explaining death to Junior.
- Lindsay Brown is also Bowser's 2nd confirmed killed victim.
- He told Bowser Junior to NOT go trick or treating just because of an accident, while Bowser could have just checked his candy.
- He told Junior to not go outside because there are monsters, which aren't even real.
- In Bowser’s Depression, he tried to kill himself just because Charleyyy & Friends got cancelled.
- He didn't recognize Junior when Brooklyn T. Guy asked him if he was his son.
- In The Purge!, he thinks that Cody and Joseph were going to kill him and Junior during the purge.
- He kicked Chef Pee Pee out during the Purge, but however, this was a very bad idea since the apartment was his only home, and if he didn't have Brooklyn T. Guy help him, he could have died. This is possibly due to the video being non-canon or Bowser might have let Chef Pee Pee back in the apartment after the events of that video.
- He decided to stay in the apartment when it was about to be chemically bombed. It could be possible that the effects of the bomb have worn off.
- In Bowser Junior Sneaks Out!, he thinks that laser tag is dangerous believing that actual lasers are in the game.
- He thinks that people only have a birthday once during their lifetime although in Bowser Junior's 9th Birthday! while punishing Junior for his actions he explained to him that it was a joke.
- He was a ten time Easter egg hunting champion, but his title was eventually taken by his son in Bowser Junior's Easter Egg Hunt.
- He has short-term memory loss as seen in Mario and Bowser's Stupid and Crazy Adventure - Episode 3.
- He's been brainwashed by the media as seen in Bowser Junior's Halloween Problem!, when he says that everything on the news is true. This actually explains why he thought Laser Tag was dangerous, and may explain his racist views against African Americans and his sexist views against females.
- Along with Junior and Margaret, his favorite holiday is revealed to be Thanksgiving in The Big Thanksgiving.
- He murdered a total of 12 people, making him murder the fourth most people besides Bowser Junior, Does Bad Things Guy and Black Yoshi.
- He went to high school with Mario. It is implied that they did not get along well, as Bowser says he used to hit Mario with a Rubik's cube.[3]
- Oftentimes when Bowser first appears in a scene, double basses can be heard playing.
- In Bowser Junior's Christmas Eve!, Bowser states that he is lactose intolerant.
- Bowser hates country music.[4]
- Bowser likes his sandwiches crust free.[5] This is ironic given how his own son is the complete opposite as his son doesn't like no crust.
- In Bowser Junior's Clown Car!, Bowser states that he's using Weight Watchers.
- Much like Mario, Bowser could have Prosopagnosia, which is a condition that makes people who can only remember people by only paying attention to their clothes. This could also explain why he thought Junior was Chef Pee Pee in Chef Pee Pee Gets Sick! and Pop Rocks and Coke!
- Despite having hair as a Koopa, his human puppet form is completely bald.
- He was disliked by a slightly common amount of fans due to sometimes being too strict towards his son Junior.
- Bowser has been shown to be greedy.
- Bowser shares many similarities to his son Junior. Both of which have flame-orange hair and have a single parent. Bowser only has a mom while Junior only has his father, and both have a severe allergy. Bowser is allergic to cherries while Junior is allergic to water as shown in Bowser's Dinner Date and Bowser Junior's Allergy! respectively though the latter video is non-canon. They are also both very bossy and demanding to Chef Pee Pee and sometimes fussy eaters such as in Bowser's Broken TV and Bowser Junior's Midnight Snack! respectively. Both are also immature and sometimes have a fond for toys. Both also have disgusting habits as well. Bowser poops on his bed (As shown in Bowser Junior's Bubble Bath) while Junior pees in a fridge (As shown in Bowser Junior Gets Potty Trained). Whether this was a coincidence or not is unknown.
- When Bowser was a baby, he was portrayed by a Bowser Junior plush, except he has no bib. In fact, Baby Bowser appears to be smarter than his older counterpart.
- Bowser started to hate Mario because Mario lied to him when they were babies.
- However, later on since Mario moved in with him, the two started to become best friends.
- Since Logan now stays family friendly as of mid 2019, Bowser doesn't cuss or swear anymore and he doesn't abuse Junior anymore, he just sometimes punishes him and only abuses Chef Pee Pee.
- He, Mario, Black Yoshi, Shrek, Mr. Goodman and Toad are the only characters from the old era that are still in the show.
- He tried to date a girl on Valentine's Day 2018 on turtler (which is like Tinder) but failed and he never had a wife.
- It is unknown how Bowser became single in the first place leaving many fan theories to be believed with a common fan theory that believes that Bowser and Shelby were possibly divorced with Bowser being left to take Junior into custody, but this was proven to be false according to some videos as Bowser mentions himself being widowed so there is a possibility that Shelby most likely died at some point after the events of Jeffy and Junior Skip School!
- However, She is mentioned in Junior's Teeth! by Bowser claiming that she "couldn't give up the party life" which might explain her disappearance.
