About Helga Pataki
Helga G. Pataki, voiced by an American actress Francesca Marie Smith, is one of the characters in a cheerful 1996 animated TV series Hey Arnold!, the series is based on the comic with the same name that was first published in 1991. The show follows Arnold’s everyday life in a multi-racial boarding house with his grandparents and a diverse group of neighbors and friends.
Unlike Arnold, Helga is seen as a bully by friends for she doesn’t hesitate to use or threaten physical force to get her way and sarcastically mock others. Likewise, Helga’s relationship with Arnold is not so good from afar because she constantly bullies him and outwardly announces that she hates him. However, surprisingly, she is actually deeply in love with him to the point of obsession, as she frequently stalks him and writes romantic poems about him.
