Dee Dee is one of the three main antagonists (alongside Marky and Joey) of Oggy and the Cockroaches. He is blue-bodied, orange-headed roach with green eyes. In opposite of his brothers Joey and Marky, he is short and chubby. He is the youngest of the trio, is the most gluttonous and acts somewhat childish.
Personality[]
He is obsessed with eating and can eat everything, including larger animals or other things (such as hyenas, an insect and fish). He is even capable to eat while sleeping, as he once bites Oggy's tail from the sleep. On the other hand, his appetite sometimes causes problems. For example, Dee Dee once eats so much food he isn't able to move and is easily caught by Oggy.
Like Marky, he is in complete admiration of Joey and he will follow him to the end of the world. Only in some rare cases, he complains about Joey's plans. When Joey falls in love with a bee and neglects his brothers, the two beat up his girlfriend at first and then fight Joey himself.
Although he usually only realizes Joey's plans without thinking, when it comes to getting some food, he appears to be very active. When Loch Ness Monster settles in Oggy's house and eats all his food, Dee Dee becomes angry and creates a plan to get rid of it. Eventually, he is the only cockroach who actually attacks the Monster. Joey and Marky don't care about it at all, so Dee Dee's attempt ends unsuccessfully.
While he is typically known as the dumbest of the three cockroaches, he still possesses many brilliant insights and attributes, all of them shown in most of the episodes in which he gets the main spotlight.
For instances the episode "Night at The Opera" paints him as a classy but insecure villain who endeavours a career as an actor hampered by his biggest rival Jack. Throughout the course of the episode he will give him and Oggy grief in order to ruin Jack's opera up until he succeeds in singing the Toreadors chant unprompted.
