Vicky (The Fairly OddParents, seasons 6-10)

Vicky is the main antagonist for the first six seasons of The Fairly OddParents, and a minor antagonist afterwards. She is a callous, sadistic, ruthless sixteen-year-old girl who babysits Timmy Turner. Her really menacing behavior towards Timmy is one of the reasons - if not the main reason - that he has fairy godparents, and most of his wishes involve getting revenge, or simply getting around her. Vicky is typically hired when Timmy's parents make a hasty getaway trip to one of their "adults-only" destinations, leaving Timmy in her cruel hands. Vicky is voiced by Grey DeLisle, who also voices Vicky's sister Tootie and many other characters. Vicky also had a cameo appearance in the extended version of "A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner", "A Fairly Odd Christmas", and "A Fairly Odd Summer", where she is portrayed in live-action by Devon Weigel.

Why She Sucks Now

 * 1) Her villainous role has been completely flanderized from just being mean and sadistic to then just plain psychotic. More often than not in these seasons, she repeatedly tries to kill Timmy for little to no reason. In the first five seasons, she would just make Timmy do chores, blackmail him into making him a slave for her whims, compete against him, or just simply leave him alone and watch TV, all the while as she makes sure he is in one peace, which is a shame because it’s what made her original personality so much fun and entertaining. At the same time, Timmy would bend around her in the most clever way possible.
 * 2) All of the running gag jokes surrounding her villainous traits and babysitting role have gone too far and became very unentertaining and unpleasant to watch.
 * 3) Due to Mr. Crocker becoming the writers’ favored pet for repetitive running gag jokes, she went from being one of the main antagonists to then just a minor antagonist with a severe reduction in screen time with Mr. Crocker pretty much taking her spot as the main antagonist.
 * 4) In “Open Wide and Say Aaagh!”, she says she would not only yank out Timmy’s tonsils, but also literally kill him. Yes, seriously.
 * 5) In “Vicky Gets Fired” after Timmy's parents saw the footage of Vicky erasing their videotape in which they were saving to use for their own reality show, they fire her from babysitting their son. She tries to find another job despite her already having other children to babysit, and in each job, she is fired, until she is so powerful, to the point she becomes "Dark Empress of Everything that Breaths", which is a poorly executed parody of Darth Vader.
 * 6) In “Frenemy Mine”, after Timmy saves her life, which got her expelled from the “B.R.A.T.S.” group, she warms up to Timmy, but in a bad way, as she begins aggressively stalking Timmy to the point of not letting anyone else near him, which is not only inappropriate (especially since she’s 16 and Timmy is 10), but also weird and annoying. Isn’t this something the more obsessive Tootie would do anyway?
 * 7) In “Scary GodCouple”, after Foop becomes Vicky’s fairy godparent (which is a continuity error by the way, as Foop is an anti-fairy and anti-fairies are not allowed to be assigned to children as anti-fairies are evil), they proceed to terrorize all children in Dimmsdale.
 * 8) Some episodes like “Fairly OddPet”, “Dumbbell Curve”, and “The Big Fairy Share Scare” are where she is just shoehorned in as a generic evil plot device.
 * 9) She has hit rock bottom in “Certifiable Super Sitter”, where she actively tries to kill Timmy Turner and Chloe Carmichael, and she even tortures Timmy's Dad, referring to him as the “man with the weird hat”, who has also hit rock bottom in the same episode in which he is portrayed to be a mentally disabled child with poor vocabulary.
 * 10) *Vicky and Timmy's Dad also seem to not know each other in the same episode because the writers clearly wanted it that way.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) She was a better villain in the first five seasons, as well as the Oh Yeah! Cartoons pilot shorts.
 * 2) Some of her appearances are passable, such as “Wishology!”, “Mice Capades” and (depending on your view) “When Losers Attack”.
 * 3) She still got her comeuppance in most of her appearances, similar to the older seasons.
