Pokey
“Where Gumby is idealistic, Pokey is skeptical. Where Gumby is trusting, Pokey asks questions. When Gumby takes chances, Pokey often gets dragged along against his will, but ends up appreciating the experience. The two save each other with regularity. In every episode Pokey gives advice, and sometimes, Gumby listens to him.” -gumbyworld.com
When I watched the reruns of the Gumby series in the mid-80s, the character that stood out the most was Pokey. As the site describes, Pokey was the complainer masquerading as a realist. If there were a holiday that I could make up, it would probably be Pokey Day because it would have many interpretations!
“Hey everyone, it’s Pokey Day. You know what that means?”
