In the 1982 Hanna Barbera series, Clyde is bossy, authoritative, cunning, aggressive, and mean, rather than Blinky. Clyde is considered the ghost monster's second-in-command. Clyde scolds and criticizes the ghost for their failures to chomp Pac-Man because of this. Clyde also yells and scolds at Inky for being dumb, unintelligent, and stupid, though Inky doesn't mind about Clyde scolding at him.
