Fat Abbott is the main character of the TV show, The Fat Abbott Show, who was seen in the Season Two episode "Clubhouses". He is a parody of Fat Albert, the main character from Bill Cosby's cartoon Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids.
Background[]
In "Clubhouses", his show is watched multiple times by the boys throughout the episode. He and the rest of his gang are shown to be foul-mouthed and armed people who regularly threaten to kill each other. In one of his episodes, he advises a girl that she should trap her abusive stepfather in a bear trap, which eventually gives Stan the idea of getting revenge on his stepfather.
His show is briefly mentioned by Cartman in "Rainforest Shmainforest".
