Mr. Goodman (Modern)

Mr. Goodman is a supporting antagonist in the web series, SuperMarioLogan. During his early years, he was written as the cliche character with a lot of jobs (similar to Brooklyn T. Guy), before becoming a rich angry landlord who threatens Mario with his house payment after the episode "The Koopalings Part 2". He was also a police officer during his early years on the show though, it is theorized that “Officer Goodman” was his twin brother. Since it was stated in “Black Yoshi’s New Call of Duty” that he has 12 twin brothers. He is also a news reporter in a news broadcast fans dub “Exposition TV”.

Why He Sucks Now

 * 1) Character assassination: In the earlier episodes, he was a rather dumb and incompetent yet also kind and friendly person who serves at the police to a tyranncial mob boss  who claims to own Mario's house and extorts him with "house payments", threatening to rip his genitals or nipples off if he doesn't pay.
 * 2) He also became a much more greedy person as he loves money too much, and won't even give any away unless he gets something in return.
 * 3) In Mr. Goodman's Baby, he mentioned that he impregnates nannies and fires them.
 * 4) Goodman began his most overused joke of  always demanding Mario's house payments and as of 2021, it is still not funny. However, there a few exceptions like in Jeffy's Halloween or Scooter the Rapper, but for the most part, it is barely enjoyable due to how overused and mean spirited it is.
 * 5) He is overconfident; when Mario let him inside to taste Chef Pee Pee's cooking, he didn't bother to taste to Chef Pee Pee's ravioli and he only smelled it. This led him to be very sure that he'd win the chef competition the two were attending. He then betted all of his money on that he'd win so that he'd double his money. To put a long story short: it didn't end the way he thought.
 * 6) He has serious anger issues. He can also be very violent; like his frequent threats of biting off Mario's nipples/balls and the time when he actually bit off Black Yoshi's nipples (though in the latter case, it is understandable as Black Yoshi did pull numerous scams). He is also a proud cannibal who kills people who don't make their house payments and rips off their testicles and nipples to eat, and he sees no problem with it; on one occasion, he even taught fans how to make a dish out of testicles.
 * 7) By 2016, he began to have major swearing rampages (almost as bad as Jeffy's) which get old and repetitive fast.
 * 8) * However, after debuting his black "Elephant Asshole" suit, it went to the point that he swore in every SML video he appeared in up until 2019.
 * 9) Not only is he a jerk to Mario, but he also acts as a huge jerk towards his son Richard by abusing him so he can mold him into a suitable successor, for example at the ending of Mr. Goodmans Son, when Richard realizes that money doesn't buy happiness, and you cant buy friends, but friends and family makes you happy, but Goodman did not see this that way, and slapped Richards AirPods off of his ears for saying such a thing.
 * 10) He can be classified as Karma Houdini, as most of the time, he doesn't get his comeuppance.
 * 11) He is also extremely cold-hearted and selfish too, in the episode "The Movie Date!", Brooklyn T. Guy tries to lie to Goodman about there being an emergency, but Goodman just states that it is "not his problem", even if its a lie, this shows Goodman tends to lack empathy.
 * 12) Not only is he a terrible father to Richard, but he is even worse to Benjamin as he even demanded that Mario adopt Benjamin and only took him back because he did not want to pay taxes.
 * 13) He has become immersed in his own evil, doing aything nice physically hurts him, for example in Jeffy's Paper Shredder, where Goodman says he paid off Mario's house payment for him, and it shows that it actually hurts him.
 * 14) It's heavily-implied he isn't actually Mario's landlord (since Mario got the house for free from Does Bad Things Guy, besides which Bowser actually owns the house, yet Goodman goes after Mario because the latter is too meek and submissive to object), but an obscenely-powerful mob boss whose company is a front for a massive criminal organization. He has committed enough crimes to get him locked up for life or even executed, yet hardly ever gets his comeuppance because the police are extremely corrupt and take bribes like candy, and is presumably smart enough to hide his operations from the FBI.
 * 15) He's shown to be a huge hypocrite at the end of "Mr Goodman's Clone!" Where he hired Brooklyn T Guy 10 Grand to get in a look-a-like costume of him and pretend that the clone is trying to kill him, And the clone offers Mario $1,000,000 To help him find Goodman , When it's revealed that It was Brooklyn Guy in the suit , He gets upset at Mario then says he would kill him for $1,000,000 making him a huge hypocrite.
 * 16) He's developed unnecessary hatred for Mario's hat for no reason and it is barely explained why he hates it apart from the fact that He gets tired of seeing it all the time whenever he wants to get his house payments.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He was a more likable, hilarious and caring character before the episode "The Koopalings Part 2".
 * 2) He can be hilarious sometimes.
 * 3) Lance did a great job at voicing him.
 * 4) He can still be decent as a news reporter.
 * 5) He can sometimes seem wise and agreeable (compared to Rosalina), and despite his greed he is often shown to be one of the smarter/more sensible characters in the series. He also makes some good points sometimes (ex: "Jeffy's Broken Toy" where he points out you shouldn't believe everything you hear on TV, albeit in a twisted way)
 * 6) He was likable in "Chef Pee Pee Goes To Hollywood" where Chef Pee Pee showed Goodman the blue waffle he made, Goodman said that it reminded him of his childhood and he lets Junior and Chef Pee Pee off the hook, which was nice for him. Likewise, he has a right to be mad at Junior and Chef Pee Pee for stealing his money.
 * 7) Ever since SML became family-friendly, his jokes became more clever and relied on anything but his swearing rampages.
 * 8) His over the top evil nature can be considered amusing as a form of twisted dark comedy.
 * 9) In "Mr. Goodman's Father", it was revealed that Frank Goodman (Mr. Goodman's dad) hates him all because he bought him a gift card, and Frank acts like he doesn't care about his son. This could explain why Mr. Goodman acts the way he is.
