His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close To Being Pure Evil?[]
- He regularly abuses and threatens his employees that work for him.
- In “Endangered Species”, he eats and murders two Grapdelites despite being told that they were the last of their species, though at the end of the episode it is shown that two Grapdelite cubs are still alive.
- In "Career Opportunities", he tries to eat Robbie just for telling him how to treat the workers.
- In “A New Leaf”, he fires Earl just for being 4 hours late and for being annoying. He also stated he wanted to kill Earl and his whole family for this but wouldn’t because he would run into issues with the union.
- In “Nuts to War”, he conducts "Cash-and-Carry" and sells weapons to both the four-legged and two-legged dinosaurs.
- In “Hungry for Love”, he ate and murdered 4 of his daughter’s boyfriends and intended to do the same with Robbie.
- In "Earl's Big Jackpot", he forces the tree-pushers to work overtime and fires Earl just for getting injured at work. Later, when the company loses 800 million, Richfield raises all goods to insane prices and later fakes a whiplash and sues the Sinclair family.
- In "Earl, Don't Be a Hero", he forces Earl to use his superhero status for advertising of WESAYSO products.
- In “Changing Nature”, his actions cause the extinction of the entire dinosaur species. While this wasn’t his intent, he still shows no remorse for it, stating that the company is in it’s “best third quarter ever” while the apocalypse is a “fourth quarter” problem. To reiterate, he doesn’t care about the fact he drove his race to extinction because he is gaining more profit.
- While he states he'll "drop a bomb on that bridge" when it gets there, the narrative still makes it clear he didn’t care that he caused everyone to die and he only cares about the money, as he spends his final scene gleefully tossing around his money and does this while it is snowing on top of him.
- While he starts the series as very comedic, he slightly loses his comedy overtime before subverting it all together in the final episode "Changing Nature", where he lets all the dinosaurs go extinct to gain profit.
- Although he was scared when his bosses showed him the head of a dead dinosaur, this was because he was being threatened with it.
What Prevents Him From Being Pure Evil?[]
- He is shown to have a level of respect for his mother as he listens to her and doesn’t question her, and deeply cares about his daughter Wendy, spying on her to insure she doesn’t get into trouble.
Trivia[]
- He is so far the only Jim Henson villain to be Near Pure Evil.
