Grouchy Smurf/1981 Animated Series

Grouchy Smurf (original French name Le Schtroumpf Grognon) is one of the supporting characters of the The Smurfs 1981 animated series.

Character
Unlike his comic book/2021 television series counterpart, the 1981 TV iteration of Grouchy Smurf's behavior is not caused by his allergic reaction to the Purple Fly, but rather his behavior is simply natural (with Lazy Smurf taking Grouchy's place of getting stung by the purple fly).

The 1981 iteration of Grouchy's personality is mostly identical to his comic book/2021 television series counterpart. However, he tends to say what he hates exactly what the person is saying or doing near his presence more often, whilst not elaborating any further:


 * Smurfette: Oh, what's happening to us!?
 * Grouchy: I *hate* what's happening to us!

Another aspect to the character of his 1981 iteration is that he doesn't speak as much as his other iterations, whilst his angry expression is slightly different as his comic book/2021 television iteration.
