- For the toy story character, see woody. for the object one, see Woody (Object).
Woody is and always has been a perverted and crazy little bird. The story goes that he was secretly spying on Walter Lantz getting married to his newlywed wife on their honeymoon. Upon realizing that he was being spied on, Walter had no doubts: he invited Woody to a party and then hired him to be the star of his porn films cartoons. His cartoons were broadcast on radio for the first time in 1947, on the program The Woody Woodpecker Show of Faith, which showed "new" sequences of Woody interacting with the songs in slow motion, as if a person and a cartoon could present a radio show together even more so after the war!!!
Currently, The Woody Woodpecker Show is rerun every day and with the same episodes as always. After Walter showed the drawing of Woody Woodpecker, entitled "Knock Knock", to Bernie, head of department at Universal, he rejected it, saying that that little bird was the devil's thing and performed acts worthy of possessed people. However, Lantz cried for them to produce it, saying that he was betting everything on the character (even his 1932 VW Beetle). Universal responded to their requests and produced the cartoon, which was a huge success. So, Kreisler asked Walter Lantz for new episodes, and even received money from him.
Walter Lantz was in decline with his character Andy Panda, as he was just a cheap copy of Mickey Mouse. As the Woodpecker, in addition to reinforcing its name twice, was also affectionately called "Red-headed Woodpecker", it ended up becoming popular. After Woody's success as a supporting character in the Andy Panda cartoon, they decided to make a cartoon where the character would appear alone with the villains, the setting and some clowning involved. So, Lantz needed a name for Woodpecker and decided to call him "Woody Woodpecker."
The so called "Side Characters"[]
- Buzz Buzzard - He never accepted having less resources than Woody Woodpecker and chased him throughout the entire series.
- Sugarfoot - In reality, in each episode he was the horse of a different bandit. After some persuasion, Sugerfoot became Woody's little friend. In his honor, Ferrari uses him as a symbol and mascot, in addition to occasionally calling him to serve as a vehicle for "former" driver Fernando Alonso.
- Gabby Gator - Always tried to get closer to Woody. He became adept at Macumba to tie the woodpecker. (Check out the episode The Voo-Doo King)
- Wally Walrus - Woody’s neighbor. He's always being tormented, and Woody always manages to get away with him, with some trickery.
- Fink Fox - An idiot who first tried to sell Woody Woodpecker to the chief of an indigenous tribe who wanted to sacrifice him to get rain. On another occasion, he tried to sell him to a zoo in the West to earn a little extra money. But in the end he is the one who fights with the tribe and escapes from the Izanagi Zoo.
- Miss Meany - This one never achieved anything with Woody, as she has sadomasochistic tendencies.
- Dapper Denver Dooley - He's a bandit from the old west. One day he ventured to hunt pink whales, but was unsuccessful. It is speculated that he is an ancestor of 2020's Spongebob due to his mouth being the size of a toilet.
