I also think that Fi is a bit Aspie-ish.

D.W. and Buster from Arthur. I know they made a new character to teach about Asperger's, but I always wished they would have used an exhisting character, Buster just screams as to me. Espically his obsession with aliens. D.W.'s obsession with Mary Moo Cow and her snowball and how Arthur is always saying she is even weirder than other little kids, make me think they could have went ahead and used her instead of going through all the trouble of making up a new character who seems more LFA than AS.


Twlight Sparkle from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic.


Carl is definately HFA/Aspergers, though he does seem to be a rather severe case. They have given existing characters medical conditions in the past, so why not now?

It's seems Twilight is now the unofficial female mascot of AS, she pops up everywhere with these.

I may have said this sometime before on this thread, but I would make mention of Cliff Clayvon on Cheers. Not only can he spew out facts non-stop, but he's also socially inept.

Gale- a minor character in Breaking Bad, who is briefly Walt's lab partner

Ed- Kid from Cowboy Bebop. I didn't see it but, I'm sure she was mentioned, as she is someone's avatar

I think Boo Radley has more symptoms of classical autism than AS. I read the book seven years ago so I could be wrong.

I noticed that too.

Newman Noggs from Nicholas Nickelby - anyone agree?

'spoiler alert' - for Torchwood fans who have not read or heard the latest audios yet.

Most of the Scions from First Born - indeed, they are not actually human, more like drones, or plant buds, but their behaviour is described close to the quiet, overly polite, literal, generally getting well along with adults type of Aspie.
Gwen: 'The baby has to be changed'.
Scion: And when it is changed, it will become what?

While I would agree, I think the difference between her and Ghirahim is more symbolic of the theme of good vs. evil than anything else. That and I suppose Nintendo was going a bit out of their way to make a really flamboyant villain.

I think Matilda from the book and movie has some Aspie traits, but is most likely very smart and bookish.

However, I always delighted at the part in the movie when she says "Darles Chickens" due to being nervous...those kinds of verbal mishaps happen to me constantly. I get the first letters of the words mixed up, or I'm mentally trying to decide between two words to use, and the word that comes out is some jumble of the two. :lol:

Chris Griffin from Family Guy, maybe?

Is anyone familiar with pop song reviewer ToddintheShadows? I think his character might be an Aspie. Check him out here, he's really funny: http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videol ... t/tis/tpsr
