Season 3 and Bosco..
I bought the entire series some months back and finally reached s3 and was very disappointing how they got rid of Bosco and Jimmy two teeth.
Who the hell came up with the idea to get rid of that character and the voice actor for Bosco/Jimmy?
Is it just me who miss those characters?

I just loved that characters, so don't really understand why they got rid of him.
When i discovered that Bosco seemed to be gone i searched it up on google and found a interview with the actor where he claimed that telltale told him that they did not need him anymore for third season, even though he was open for another season.
Here is the interview: http://samandmax.co.uk/2010/02/interview-with-joey-camen/
Basically this.
They were both major side-characters of the first 2 seasons, but weren't needed for the 3rd. Depending on what the plot of the 4th is, they may or may not be back for it. Again, it depends on if they're needed.
Bosco is just too good of a character to not include.
One of the main things I looked forward to was to visit bosco store.
I always just assumed the voice actor was unavailable for some reason and they had to write around it. If they do do a season 4 I think they'll have to bring Bosco back in some capacity.
During Season 3 I think we were all feeling over-exposed to Bosco, and felt that his story had a pretty good end at the conclusion of Season 2 (a season which over time was revealed to be almost entirely about Bosco and his activities). Fun Bosco fact: He almost came back somewhere in Season 3 (we had talked about him bursting through a wall in a crazy suit like the load lifter from Aliens, made out of Bluster Blaster's body, saving Sam & Max in a pinch, and having Sam & Max say "hey it's our old friend Bosco!") but the story ended up going a different way and that moment fell out.
That makes sense. I do admit it did feel nice to take a break from some of these characters, and it probably gave you guys a lot more freedom creatively speaking.
For the record though, Bosco bursting through the wall in a crazy suit like the load lifter from Aliens, made out of Bluster Blaster's body, saving Sam & Max in a pinch would have been really cool. (I think you have your opening of season 4 right here.)
So, concept art? Or are you going to make us blitz the Fan Art forum with our own interpretations?
Bluster Blaster: ALL WILL FALL! LITERALLY! *CRASH*
Let's hope that Bosco makes some cameo in Season 4, but I don't wish to see him in as prominent role as he was in Season 2. Other characters I would like to see return are Flint Paper (who is one of the best supporting characters ever) and Girl Stinky, but I assume we don't see the latter, because she had so prominent role in Season 3.
There was no use for either of the characters in this season. I love both of the characters, but they are kind of annoying and distract you from your main objective. When I found out Bosco wouldn't sell anything in Season 2, I was really happy I would have to deal with getting money for his crappy stuff.
