Kooky, sweet, loving, friendly, caring, charming, and always wearing a smile for anyone to cheer them up as their surrogate grandmother, Madame Foster is a fun-loving old woman who always finds a way to have a good time, even if she has to break Mr. Herriman's rules in order to do so; she is truly a kid at heart. She loves having wild tea parties while everyone is out as seen in "Foster's Goes to Europe." Mr. Herriman is never happy about this, but since it was Madame Foster who created him in the first place, he doesn't have much of a say about it. She often pokes good-hearted fun at others, like in "Mac Daddy" where she made jokes about Mac and Cheese and "Bloo Cheese" (a type of cheese). She is quite sneaky and malicious when she needs or wants to be, as seen in "Foster's Goes to Europe", when she stole Mac's tickets to Europe with a rather long hug. She then went on vacation with her friends and a homesick imaginary friend named Eurotrish. In "Something Old, Something Bloo", it's shown that she thinks she's a superhero. As noted by Mr. Herriman, "This never turns out very well." She even bought the stuff Mac put up for auction on internet auction website SchmeBay (a parody of eBay) in "One False Movie", not knowing that she was buying her own stuff or funding much of the movie that Mac and Bloo were making. She also helped Bloo trick Mac into a surprise party disguised as an imaginary friend named Artie, four years old, in "I Only Have Surprise for You".
Madame Foster sometimes makes rude jokes out of someone else's unfortunate situations (most notably while Bloo was eating a horrible meal Frankie specially prepared) with a below-basic level of sarcasm. She dotes on her granddaughter Frankie, but at the same time is not above driving the younger woman to distraction. Madame Foster and Mac seem to be kindred spirits, as she has never gotten rid of her imaginary friend (Mr. Herriman) and Mac refuses to give up Bloo. Sometimes, Madame Foster's daily actions tend to change from kindhearted to eccentric (such as running with scissors inside the mansion, using exaggerated methods to solve many problems such as using a garden hose to cure Bloo of the hiccups, or even performing semi-nudism). Mr. Herriman is similar: he always acts as a cultured and refined imaginary friend, but sometimes loses his composure. Regardless of her age and mild senility, though, Madame Foster is always composed and still very sharp.
