(Heads up, I wrote this intro before we had the week online) So, I have kind of unofficially been adopted into the Hill advisory since mine is incredibly boring and half of the people are in quarantine. I don't know if I'm technically allowed to be in there, but I'm COVID free, I swear. Anyway, I was sitting in there and we got on the topic of the Penguins of Madagascar, arguably one of the best children's (it's good for adults too tbh) series out there. We began asking everyone we saw who their favorite penguin was, which got me thinking that I should write a poll for English to see not who everyone's favorite penguin is, but which penguin we think all of our classmates fit with personality wise. If you have not seen this show, 1) I feel sorry for you, you missed out, and 2) I will give you short descriptions of each penguin so you can have something to go off of when deciding. Poll is at the bottom.
Also, you may have seen that Hayes posted a poll about this to the whole school. I am not copying, this idea was formed together, I just wanted to do it here and in more detail instead of to the whole school.
Skipper
Skipper is the leader of the group. He is the one who comes up with all of the baselines for the plans, but doesn’t think too far ahead in terms of details or repercussions. He is the one that everyone looks up to, especially Private, the youngest penguin, so he holds a commanding presence and a personality that people naturally want to follow. He can be strict/stern, but this is only out of concern for his friends and wanting the best for them.
Kowalski
Kowalski is the brains, and fills in the details of the plan where Skipper can’t. He’s much more on the cautious side than his friends are, and is more hesitant to engage in their risky plans. He is very technologically inclined, and creates all of the gadgets needed for their adventures. Overall, Kowalski is very level headed, and the voice of reason within his group. Like Skipper, he wants the best for his friends, but instead of showing it by treating them like soldiers, he does his best to remove them from any dangerous situations and stop things before they go too far. Basically, the mom friend.
Rico
I… don’t really know what to say about this one. Kind of crazy, doesn’t talk much at all. Trigger happy, loves violence, and oh, can vomit out nuclear weapons at a second’s notice. I would say he is loyal, though. He may be a little insane, but he would do anything for his friends, and is always down for a crazy plan involving risks.
Private
The youngest and most naive of the bunch. Don’t mistake his nativity for stupidity, though; he just sees the best in people and wants the best for everyone, even if they’re not a very good person. He’s kind of the opposite of Kowalski; rather than the mom friend, Private is like the younger sibling that everyone feels the need to protect and shelter from life’s hardships. In Penguins of Madagascar: The Movie from 2014, Private is found by Skipper and the others when he is still in his egg, and they adopt him and raise him. Private is the one that everyone loves and has a natural instinct to protect. Also, he’s British for some reason.
