The Narrator

The Narrator is a character on the series WordGirl. He has no physical form, as is stated more than once throughout episodes, and is voiced by Chris Parnell (of Saturday Night Live fame). He not only announces, but he apparently does so from an omniscient viewpoint, for he can tell what characters are thinking and what is going on at different parts of the city simultaneously, as well as only have certain characters hear him and not others if he so chooses.

More than once he has been used as a plot device to move things along/help WordGirl--such as when he told her that Tobey was in the belly of his robot in "Princess Triana and the Ogre of Castlebum." He has also given things away, such as when he hinted at Two-Brains' plans in "When Life Gives You Potatoes..."
