Goat - Other Appearances


Goat was great in Downtown and I loved how he made appearances in Megas XLR. I'm thinking this was noted mistakenly but Wikipedia mentions he had appearances in Metalocalypse. If true, what episodes? I did a little bit of research and don't find any support showing that he actually appeared in anything other than Downtown and Megas XLR but... thought I'd check here in case someone knows different.


BTW, was there any inspiration for this character? What brought him into Megas and is there any chance he'll appear in other shows down the line? I find it nifty that he lived through crossover.

He's in the very first episode, talking about how his eye got gouged out and forcibly fed to him during a Dethklok concert. Swap the mechanic's jumpsuit for heavy metal clothing, and subtract an eye. He makes random appearances here and there in other episodes, but as far as I know, this is his only speaking role in the show.
He was played by James Hetfield in that episode, if that matters.

I'm going to have to revisit that episode ^.^

The inspiration for Goat is his real-life counterpart - yes, he is actually based on a real person who has that nickname. Apparently he's EXACTLY the same.

That's pretty awesome. I'd love it if they had an expanded article on the character maybe on IMDB or Wikipedia.

Well he's not exactly the same as in Downtown and Megas, but his personality is definitely seen in both shows. Especially in Downtown in such great lines as "I have two words for you my friend. Lower. Your. Standards."

By the way, Scot, who does the voice of Goat, is actually Goat.
