Wolfgang is the main antagonist in Hey Arnold!. He runs the fifth grade, except that people of his grade actually pay attention to Wolfgang rather than just stay away from him, indicating that they like and respect his bullying ways. He is also Arnold and Gerald's arch-rival.

Biography[]

Wolfgang constantly overthrow and torment the fourth-graders (including Arnold and his friends), and is seen as sort of his rival when it comes to sports. He's also very superstitious as seen in "Friday the 13th", as he became easily spooked when Arnold's grandmother brought her 13 black cats. He gets his main kicks off of winning and demeaning those smaller than him.  He is 10 or 11 years old.

Despite being a bully, he seems to be intelligent because he realizes in his first appearance that he could end a culture of violence and be a hero by stopping Trash Can Day (although he still didn't listen by putting Arnold and Gerald in the trash), he takes oboe lessons until 4:00, he suggested to Ludwig the idea of using the fourth graders as players for the football game, devised a plan for Trash Can Day, made sure Chocolate Boy didn't eat chocolate for a month and other strategies.

Appearance[]

Wolfgang has blond hair and wears a green shirt with a cobra on it, brown shorts, and green and white shoes.

Personality[]

Wolfgang is the worst bully in this school who hated the fourth-graders (including Arnold and his friends). He was mean, rude, ruthless and abusive teenager who likes to overthrow and torment the fourth-graders by making their lives miserable, like in "Longest Monday" who plans to get the fourth-graders thrown in dumpsters and trash cans, also in "Suspended" who uses fire extinguisher to attack other students, and in "Friday the 13th" who uses the worst pranks on Arnold and Gerald to make things are curse.

Trivia[]

  • Wolfgang was created when Craig Bartlett discovered between Seasons 1 and 2 that Toran Caudell's voice had changed to the point where he couldn't talk like Arnold anymore. 
  • Due to Toran Caudell going through puberty and not being able to play as Arnold. Craig Bartlett thought of the idea that Toran Caudell should do the voice of Wolfgang since that he's older than the 4th Graders and it would show how the same way Jamil Walker Smith was going through puberty and still in the cast is the way how Toran Caudell was still in the cast. So that people can see how Wolfgang's voice has changed just like Gerald's voice after the episode "Gerald's Tonsils". Plus both of the actors had went though puberty at the same time.
  • Wolfgang's first name is named after the classical music composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
  • Some people have believed that Wolfgang isn't a villain, although he is a villain because he's simply goes beyond and has immoral traits. He and other fifth-graders were despises for the fourth-graders (mainly Arnold and his friends) and wants to overthrow and torment them.
