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..."

==Name==
'{{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 [[Arthur 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>
* That being said, her first name is unknown since 'Bubby' is mainly used by Francine's family-when Francine and Catherine call her that instead of "grandma", and when she is referenced to by that by Oliver and Laverne when talking to their kids.
