Warren Weber

Richie’s best friend and an aspiring not so talented singer. He is somewhat more carefree and worldly than Richie in early seasons, then in mid seasons, he becomes more often paired with Ralph for plots, and the two became inseparable. In later seasons, his character evolves to increasingly emphasize his dimwitted side, and Ralph would often say to him “You’re such a Putz”. Putzie often lightheartedly mentioned the supposed hatred his pet turtle(who never appeared on the show) had for him.
