The unremarked-upon absence of Goofy’s wife and family implies a backstory for Goofy that is much darker and perhaps less appropriate for the character than almost any other story Goof Troop’s writers could have come up with. The first was in "Karate Choppers" and the second was in "Squid on Strike." When Goofy later overhears the Gammas' plan to cheat in the games, Goofy tries to warn his son, who doesn't believe him, as he still wants him out of his life. Goofy’s solution is to take Max on the same character-building fishing trip that his father took him on when he was a boy. However, when their neighbor Pete tells Max that there is no such thing as Santa, Goofy goes out of his way to try to prove to Max that Santa does exist. But the implied tragedies of Goofy’s past are an unavoidable subtext of the Goofy Movies, which focus on Max growing up and pulling away as Goofy, who has nothing and no one else of note in his life, clings desperately to his son. It’s a Disney movie, so Goofy and Max eventually reconcile, but this is still an astonishingly weird story. Can you imagine Goofy angrily demanding that his pastor tell him what kind of God would allow something like this to happen? We may not be owed the full story, but Max deserves to hear what happened from his father before it’s too late. During the final stretch of the triathlon, Bradley activates a rocket hidden in Max's skateboard, causing an explosion that ends up trapping fellow Gamma member Tank underneath some fallen fiery debris. But the darkness, sadly enough, doesn’t end there. Then, Goofy goes to the unemployment office and learns that he is unemployable because he never graduated from college. I know I keep saying this, but: This is Goofy we’re talking about here. This is especially evident in An Extremely Goofy Movie, the relatively obscure and extremely weird straight-to-DVD sequel to the better-known A Goofy Movie. The scene is 95 seconds long, and is played completely straight. Emphasis on the weird. But what can we do with this information? After Goofy's car suddenly explodes due to the damage after it fallen at the waterfall, he is sent crashing through the roof of Roxanne's porch, at which point Max introduces Roxanne to his dad. It seems that making a show for children starring a beloved franchise character, and working within Disney’s constraints, unintentionally created a fiction that implies the character is a widower and that his entire family is probably dead. Goofy is clearly dealing with a significant amount of trauma that he has issues confronting directly, and perhaps Max is being understanding of Goofy’s challenges.

The bizarre, tragic, and likely imagined history of Goofy’s wife and family. Probably not. Perhaps Mrs. Goofy’s apparent infidelity could explain her absence from Goof Troop, but it doesn’t explain why Mrs. Goof is not in contact with Max, or why Goofy is the sole custodial parent, since, if this theory is correct, Max may not even be his biological son. Mousekedance It!" Eventually, Max manages to distract his father by introducing him to Ms. Sylvia Marpole, the college's librarian, who takes a romantic interest in Goofy and vice versa while Max sneaks off to practice his skateboarding. Max just wants to listen to ska music, wear baggy pants, creep on girls, and practice skateboarding for the College X-Games, an embarrassing 1990s sporting event that Max plans to compete in with his equally embarrassing friend Bobby Zimuruski, who is pretty much Poochie as played by Pauly Shore. But, after nearly three decades, it’s finally time to talk about Goofy’s dead wife and missing family. Goofy picks them up at the train station and brings them back to the house, where Goofy shows Mona Max's baby pictures and unwittingly embarrasses Max with all his fatherly love. The two actually make it to the Powerline concert, even appearing (accidentally) onstage. In 1995 Max Goof became a Teenager in A Goofy Movie where he is voiced by Jason Marsden which became his first animated film that he worked on at the age of 18, Marsden continued to voice Max in An Extremely Goofy Movie, House of Mouse, Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas and other Disney projects. Why wouldn’t he bring up his parents in that situation, or Max’s mother? parade. His wife from the 1950s shorts never appears in the show or in the movies. A guy who played Goofy at Disneyworld for 20 YEARS got fired, then did a Reddit AMA to vent his frustrations. In House of Mouse, he is still a teenager but one who is old enough to be employed as a parking valet. Goofy identified Dr. Frankengoof as his "great grand-uncle", an alternate description for a "great-great-uncle", thereby making Dr. Frankengoof Max's "great-great-great-uncle". Disney famously withheld Donald Duck from the original DuckTales series out of fear of overexposing the character. The rise of television all but wiped out these cartoons, and the characters mostly dropped out of view by the early ’60s. In A Goofy Movie, Goofy becomes concerned about Max’s future after Max gets in trouble at school. But Debbie’s parents never appear in any episode. Jason Marsden voices an older Max in all other appearances starting with A Goofy Movie. In the episode "Max's Embarrassing Date", Max is off work and on a date with Roxanne at the House of Mouse. Goofy, overjoyed to be near his son again, recovers a bit and even gets a date with the college librarian. Goofy falls into a depression that indirectly causes a workplace accident. This crushes Goofy; Max is everything to him. But Goofy returned in 1992 with a half-hour television show called Goof Troop, which was broadcast during the Disney Afternoon animation block. However, after staying up all night with no luck, Goofy is filled with disappointment, leaving it to Max to cheer his father.
