Dracula
The running gag first began in the Dracula episode (episode 57). The SNES video game Bram Stoker's Dracula includes several credits for the movie it was based on, including Fred Fuchs. At the video mark of 9:42, when the Nerd begins to read such credits, he notices Fred Fuchs and is baffled by the name, believing it to be pronounced "Fred Fucks". James Rolfe could barely get through acting out the scene of the Nerd starbound at Fred's surname without bursting out laughing.

In episode 84, starting at 8:27, Fred is mentioned in the episode when the Nerd is talking about the non-responsive controls in the game, he says that maybe it was "Fred Fucks" that designed the controls for the ice skating game.

In episode 99 at the 16:09 mark of this episode, The Nerd is making a negative commenting on a popup window of an 8-bit photo of a programmer's face saying "I wish it was Fred Fucks!"
In Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures series, he sends his minions such as the video game monsters like a hemisphere minion in the tutorial level, zombies, ghosts, bats, and other video game enemies inside the Game Land, as well as the dangerous minions who being encountered in five different worlds in the sequel.
Fred Fucks first appears as a full-fledged character on the Nerd cast as the boss in Laughin' Jokin' Numbnuts, he is the final boss of the entire game and as the main antagonist. He is the very programmer of Game Land and purposely sucked the Nerd and his friends into said Game Land just to show them what it feels like to be in a shitty game.
There, after the Nerd beats all that is behind him, Fred, who was simply an anonymous voice at the time, mocks and is slightly impressed by the Nerd's determination, skill, and will to get as far as he did. When the programmer reveals himself, the two eject into battle, with Fred donning a handless jetpack, flying around the arena.
Fred's attacks include spewing fire balls out of his bare hands, spawning chained maces swing about on his crotch (which he refers to them as his "balls"), and defecating, using his turds like dropped bombs, thanks to his uncontrollable bowels. After the player finally evades all of these attacks and pumps enough Nintendo Zapper lead into Fred, he is "killed" and Game Land falls apart due to the death of its programmer.
His appearance in the game is unlike that in real life, as it consists of short and spiky brown hair, a beard, jeans, glasses, and a T-shirt with "FF" on it. It was later confirmed in the documentary video that Sam Beddoes, the game developer, provided his likeness for Fred Fucks.
In Angry Video Game Nerd I & II Deluxe, Fred Fucks' sprite appearance has been revamped, providing his likeness to Gilbert Gottfried as well as his personality seen in Life of the Black Tiger. He returns as a minor antagonist in the Deluxe Version of The Angry Video Game Nerd II ASSimilation replacing the Nostalgia Critic. He carries a rifle throu...
Fred Fucks physically appears in the AVGN episode Life of Black Tiger, portrayed by the late Gilbert Gottfried, who was best known as the voice of Iago from Disney's Aladdin. He is a programmer at 1Games, which, in this episode, is located in the jungles of Asia.
After the Nerd described the problems presented in the PS4 port of the mobile game, he decides to travel to Asia to find Fred. While there, Fred points his gun at the Nerd, threatening to shoot a hole on him. It is revealed that he soaked his clothes in tiger urine. He also made a company computer made of coconuts, bamboo and hyena feces.
The two played the game on a PS4 Poo, which Fred also made, commentating on the game's levels and problems. It was also revealed that he made a sex scene between the titular black tiger and the female tiger in the alpha build of the game but the ratings board rejected it. He also had been urinated by a stack of buffalo more times than he could remember.
After finishing the game, the Nerd filmed a commercial featuring Mr. Rigs and Fred, ending the episode.
•The last name Fuchs is an actual German surname and means "fox". It is pronounced to rhyme with "books".

Fred Fuchs (Foo-ks) isn’t even someone who worked on a game. He’s a famous Hollywood film producer that worked on the Francis Ford Coppola film Dracula (which is why his name was in the credits of a Dracula game along with Coppola).
It's probably the fact that his surname, Fuchs, looks similar to the intransitive verb 'Fucks', a common English vulgarity. He was a producer for the movie Bram Stoker's Dracula and that's why he was credited in the Sega CD version that the AVGN was playing.
Fred Fuchs is a producer of movies and TV shows, such as The Godfather Part III, Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Virgin Suicides, and Titanic. He was the president of Zoetrope Studios for 12 years and worked for other companies like CBC and Riverside Entertainment.
