My 10 year-old daughter noticed a person in a cat or fox suit in the Uberchaun episode and then watched older episodes and found him in 4 more episodes. I found him in the graveyard episode and the Lady Fingers episode so far. What is the meaning of the character and is it in every episode?
Yes, he's in every episode; sometimes he's quite hard to spot, but he's there. Since he's appeared in every episode so far, I'm led to assume that he'll naturally be explained in the season finale. We'll just have to wait and see.
Also, the creature in question is played by Joel Fox, the visual effects supervisor of the series.
I noticed him too!! I first noticed him in The Cowboy Android and was like "What the heck is that"...when i saw him again in Uberchaun, I know it was a reoccuring.
Haven't watched the full season yet to know if he is building to something a la 'Bad Wolf" on Dr. Who, or if he is an inside joke for fans to try and find every episode.
