| |hair = Brown}}'''<font color=pink>Bubby</font>''' was the fun and energetic maternal grandmother of [[Francine Frensky|Francine]] and [[Catherine Frensky|Catherine]], and the mother of [[Laverne Frensky|Laverne]], and also the mother-in-law of [[Oliver Frensky|Oliver]].
| |
| | |
| She first appeared briefly in ''[[Arthur's Perfect Christmas]]'', but became recognized larger in ''Is That Kosher?''. She went to [[Westboro Apartments#Frenskys' Apartment|Francine's family's apartment]] to celebrate Yom Kippur in "[[Is That Kosher?]]".
| |
| | |
| In "[[The Great MacGrady]]," it was revealed that her husband died of cancer. She is one of two guest stars that have returned with speaking roles, with Lance Armstrong being the only other guest star.

| ==Relationships==
| |
| ===[[Laverne Frensky]]===
| |
| Laverne and Bubby have a good relationship, as they are mother and daughter. Bubby at times picks on her daughter (along with her [[Oliver Frensky|son-in-law]]), saying that she hardly feeds [[Francine Frensky|Francine]] and Catherine, as well as when she says that their apartment is not clean.
| |
| ===[[Francine Frensky]]===
| |
| Francine and Bubby get along well too, and Francine seems to be the person with the most interaction with Bubby. The two do many things together.
| |
| ===[[Oliver Frensky]]===
| |
| Not much interaction is seen between Oliver and Bubby, but it can be (deeply) assumed that she loves him a lot.
| |
| ===[[Catherine Frensky]]===
| |
| When Bubby arrived for Yom Kippur, she energetically embraced both Francine and Catherine and called then her "favorite grandchildren". She then told Catherine that, although she was turning into "such a beauty" that, "...blue really isn't your color, darling..."

| |
| "{{W|Bubbe}}" is a word originating from Yiddish which means "grandmother." Since there is more than one way to spell the word in English, official PBS sources have variously used Bubby<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ckQNk7zUwM</ref><ref>https://www.facebook.com/PBSArthur/posts/252383981527803</ref> Bubbe,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBzTyzCLf_k</ref><ref>https://www.facebook.com/PBSArthur/photos/a.501573345202.387485.43562115202/10154553528215203/?type=1</ref><ref>https://www.facebook.com/PBSArthur/photos/a.501573345202.387485.43562115202/10156048295330203/?type=1&permPage=1</ref> and Bubba.<ref>http://www.klru.org/schedule/episode/190944</ref><ref>http://www.ket.org/tvschedules/episode.php?nola=ARUR++001201</ref> On this wiki, "Bubby" is preferred because it is the spelling used in actual dialogue in "[[Is That Kosher?]]"<ref>http://tv.ark.com/transcript/arthur-%28is_that_kosher%3b_never_never_never%29/1020/KTEH/Monday_January_11_2010/163049/</ref> In "[[Francine's Tough Day]]," Francine refers to Bubby as "my bubbe."
