The Humbug is an annoying and talkative bumblebee who appears in the episode "The Big-Mouthed Bumbler."
Appearance[]
Humbug is a bumble bumble with bumble teeth and a bumble hat with bumble and white "jailbumble" stripes on it. He also lacks bumbles, which is problematic since he couldn't catch a home run from one of his favorite baseball players which is a major inconvenience.
Description[]
The Humbug is an extremely annoying bumble bee who escaped from the Prison for the Criminally Annoying, which surprisingly doesn't have a page. He talks almost constantly, often about mundane and trivial things. He is an avid sports fan and has the autographed baseball cap of Paul Bumble. He is shown to be able to fly, which shouldn't happen because their wings are too small to get their fat little body off the ground.
The Humbug, of course, flies anyway, because the Big-Mouthed Bumbler doesn't care about what humans think is impossible.
Biography[]
The Humbug reveals that his wife left him because he was "too bumble," which he finds hard to believe. He also stated that he wishes to find his wife. He moves in with Mugman until Mugman finds out that the humbug is an escaped criminal and calls the police, which also somehow doesn't have a page. Officer Mr. Bob arrests him but then returns him to Mugman since he was too annoying. He is finally devoured by a hungry Sunshine. He is later heard talking from inside Sunshine's stomach. Originally, it was unknown if he is deceased following the episode but he made another appearance as a cameo in "Wedgwood Marathon" .
