User:Beetricks/Cat on the Roof/Griffin Unsworth

Griffin Unsworth is a fictional character and the protagonist of the fictitious sitcom Cat on the Roof. He would often than not be the center of the plot of a hypothetical regular episode of the show. As a self-proclaimed gamer from episode 1, his appearance in his early teen years could be characterized by his rectangular semi-rimmed glasses, brown spiky hair and eccentric fashion choices like two shirts under a shirt (when he's not wearing a signature orange hoodie). In addition, other characters in the ensemble cast would point to and laugh at other social unconventionalities like his "obsession" with Japanese culture for a white guy, mindless walking, and lack of attentiveness. This and stereotyping has resulted in a lot of misunderstandings of his true personality and intentions that are commonplace on the show, to the point where he sometimes feels anxious inside. He uses video games as an escapism for his family problems—his dad Tucker sadly isn't helpful enough for him.

However, as the series went on, his casual sense of styling matured in a way that audiences would have been able to take seriously. By age 16, he gained self-confidence and fully embraced his inner weebness.

Early life
Griffin Peter Unsworth was born on September 12, 1992, in the Manhattan borough of New York City. His father Stanley "Tucker" Unsworth (b. 1964) has English, Scotch-Irish, Polish, German, Basque and Italian ancestry. His mother Melanie Nox (Fallon; b. 1970) is of English, Irish and French descent.

He was originally named Finley Tucker Unsworth. Tucker corrected his son's birth name when he was a month old after a neighbour suspected hubris from the name choice. Until today, locals use this name to allege his nepotism. (season 3)

For the most part of his very early childhood, his father Tucker was too busy to be there. At age 3, he saw Tucker as a stranger because of his absence. Nonetheless, he bonded with his father quicker than expected, to the point the pair became inseparable within 2 weeks.
