Most of Red's repertoire of regular characters had been developed on radio, before a live audience, and they worked just as well on television.Among the best known were The Mean Widdle Kid, who left chaos wherever he went (his favorite expression: "I dood it!");Clem Kadiddlehopper, the befuddled rustic;Sheriff Deadeye, the scourge of the West; boxer Cauliflower McPugg; Willie Lump-Lump, the drunk; San Fernando Red, the con man; and Bolivar Shagnasty.The one major addition to Red's character list for the TV show was Freddie the Freeloader, a hobo who never spoke.
Red Skelton was a warm, human performer who loved his audience as much as they loved him.His closing line was always a sincere, "May God Bless You."
