Junebug is the fourth puppet encountered in the game, first seen on a staircase in the cast makeup area in Stage 4.

Junebug's appearance: She is a yellowish-green puppet with a rectangular long lime-green nose and round plastic eyes. She has lime green hair that looks to be in two spiky pigtails with a swoop at the top of her head, the pigtails held but red hair ties. She wears yellow big hoop earrings, light pink baggy shirt with a slightly darker pink silhouette of a winged unicorn, dark pink frilled skirt, jaded blue and magenta leg warmers, and dark pink high top shoes. Parts of her fingers are pink, looking like fingernails being painted.

Junebug's pirate outfit: She is one of two puppets who appears in a pirate costume on the Puppet's Pirate Cove set in Stage 5, the other being George. Her pirate outfit consists of a triangle pirate hat, red baggy shirt with a white and pink skull, a hook hand, a brown and gold belt tied over her baggy shirt, brown frilled skirt, red and white leg warmers, and leather brown high top shoes.

Though not as erratic and unhinged as the other puppets, Junebug has her own share of strange tendencies. She declares that when she is not in the mood to be responsible for something or to perform tasks, her alternative is simply to eat gravel. She sometimes sings a song that encourages to jump in muddy lumps while screaming and cursing. She also encourages speaking honestly when talking on the phone, though her example entails her heavily insulting Mr. Wallace on the other end.

Fun facts about Junebug: •Junebug is the only puppet in the entire game to have five fingers instead of four at most. •Junebug is the fastest out of the five puppets.

The other puppets: the other puppets are Lenard, Norman, Lilian, and George. They're all friends with Junebug, despite occasionally having confrontations. All these puppets were background characters on the show, acting as small appearances and occasionally bigger parts. The reason they're so unhinged is because they had watched a TV after the studio was abandoned and saw the violence and rude behavior on the other shows. The show was mainly to teach lessons and show how to be a good neighbor. Their voices are akin to that of exaggerated cartoon character voices commonplace in preschooler shows. They often spout misleading "lessons".

The show was canceled for several reasons: Cultural Shifts: A devastating, televised war left audiences jaded and depressed. Viewers began to heavily favor dark crime and drama shows, rendering feel-good, optimistic programming like My Friendly Neighborhood obsolete. On-Set Assault: The show lost its leading man, Richie Bromine, after a puppet named Ray physically assaulted him during a broadcast. Box Office Failures: Following a series of poorly received projects, the final movie Puppet Winter Song bombed at the box office, prompting the studio's corporate executives to finally shut everything down.
