* PapaWolf: He had one of these moments when the twin daughters (well, technically Tamera only, Tia only went after it became apparent that Tamera snuck out of the house in an attempt to get her back home, but her plan ended up backfiring) attempted to meet Verique, who despite his identity on the web, was actually a sex offender who often lures women into posing for dirty pictures. As soon as Ray and Lisa found this out (as well as where he lives due to directions), after the twins attempt to escape but fail, Ray and Lisa appear behind him and punches Verique in the face after Lisa shouts "What's love got to do with it, ya punk?!"

Added DiffLines:

! Tia Landry
--> '''Played by''' [[Creator/TiaAndTameraMowry Tia Mowry]]

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Smarter, more responsible, and overall more successful than Tamera, who is often jealous of her.
* BookSmart: She is a straight-A student.
* DudeMagnet: Surprisingly, despite Tamera being the more outgoing twin, Tia has probably attracted more boys than her sister throughout the show.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Tia is serious and studious, Tamera is wild and impulsive.
* GoGetterGirl: An overachiever who graduates from high school at the top of her class.
* HappilyAdopted: By Lisa. There are a couple of episodes where the girls try to find out about their biological parents, but there's never any doubt that they still love their adoptive parents.
* PolarOppositeTwins: Tia is the smart one; Tamera's the party girl.
* RedOniBlueOni: The rational Blue Oni to Tamera's impulsive Red Oni.
* StraightMan: The serious counterpart to Tamera's crazy antics.
* UptownGirl: Tia starts going out with Tyreke, a mechanic who had had trouble with the law in the past, and goes though a little bit of this in his first few appearances (though it's all from Tia's point of view, of course).
* WackyParentSeriousChild: She is the mature Serious Child, to her wacky mom Lisa, who is actually more similar to Tamera.

! Tamera Campbell
--> '''Played by''' [[Creator/TiaAndTameraMowry Tamera Mowry]]

* BookDumb: Unlike Tia, she is not that good at school.
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: With her boy-crazy and partying habits, she can be bratty to her father Ray.
* BrilliantButLazy: In "Put to The Text", she and Tia get their SAT scores mixed up. This makes Tamera confident in her intelligence and genuinely starts getting good grades for a while, until the switch is revealed.
* TheDitz: Especially compared to her sister, she is bit of an airhead.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: She is the wild and impulsive while Tia is serious and studious.
* HappilyAdopted: By Ray. There are a couple of episodes where the girls try to find out about their biological parents, but there's never any doubt that they still love their adoptive parents.
* ItsAllAboutMe: She is occasionally selfish to the point of being unfair and mean to her sister, like when she wants things Tia already has.
* LargeHam: Prone to overreact and have goofy facial expressions very often
* PolarOppositeTwins: Tia is the smart one; Tamera's the party girl.
* RedOniBlueOni: The impulsive Red Oni to Tia's rational Blue Oni

! Lisa Landry
--> '''Played by''' Jackée Harry

* BigEater: Her big appetite is a RunningGag.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: She is even more eccentric than Tamera. To wit, her idea of "10 Items or Less" has her count every dairy product she buys as a single item, her car has bungee cords for seat-belts, and she keeps Tootsie Rolls in a pillow in case that she or Tia are in a bad mood.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Lisa is no prude, but she has no time for the highly promiscuous and untrustworthy Vivica.
* FashionDesigner: It's her job, she works in the fashion business.
* PlatonicCoParenting: With Ray. They clash A LOT, but they're (usually) good at working together to raise their daughters and eventually form a close friendship.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The impulsive and reckless Energetic Girl to prudish Savvy Guy Ray.
* WackyParentSeriousChild: The wacky mom Lisa to her serious child Tia. Lisa is actually more similar to Tamera.
* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Ray. [[spoiler: They eventually dated each other in Season 4, but it didn't last long.]]

! Ray Campbell
--> '''Played by''' Tim Reid

* AndStarring: Tim Reid as Ray. Justified, as Reid was the most prolific actor in the main cast.
* ButtMonkey: Lisa often makes jokes at his expense.
* OpenMouthInsertFoot: Ray gets this fairly often, especially when trying to cheer up Lisa.
* OverprotectiveDad: He is overprotective of Tamera, which is justified because he is a widower and he is just trying to do his best.
* PapaWolf: He had one of these moments when the twin daughters (well, technically Tamera only, Tia only went after it became apparent that Tamera snuck out of the house in an attempt to get her back home, but her plan ended up backfiring) attempted to meet Verique, who despite his identity on the web, was actually a sex offender who often lures women into posing for dirty pictures. As soon as Ray and Lisa found this out (as well as where he lives due to directions), after the twins attempt to escape but fail, Ray and Lisa appear behind him and punches Verique in the face after Lisa shouts "What's love got to do with it, ya punk?!"
* PlatonicCoParenting: With Lisa. They clash A LOT, but they're (usually) good at working together to raise their daughters and eventually form a close friendship.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The prudish Savvy Guy Ray to Lisa's impulsive and reckless Energetic Girl to
* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Lisa. [[spoiler: They eventually dated each other in Season 4, but it didn't last long.]]

!Roger Evans
--> '''Played by''' Marques Houston

* AbhorrentAdmirer: To both the twins, who always reject his advances.
* BlackAndNerdy: He is black, dorky, and socially inept.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: After Marques Houston's departure, Roger is inexplicably absent in Season 6. [[spoiler:He makes his long-awaited return in the series finale, albeit in a small role]].
* DropInCharacter: He is neighbor who annoys the main family's members, and they tell him to go home as a RunningGag.
* EveryoneHasStandards: He often behaves like a lech to the twins himself, nevertheless doesn't trust Tia's childhood friend Darnell and helps rescue them from him.
* {{Expy}}: He was a Steve Urkel clone in the earlier seasons. The obnoxious and socially inept neighbor boy who is obsessed/infatuated with the teen girl character, constantly shows up unannounced, and all of his scenes end with the main cast telling him to "go home!"
* HesAllGrownUp: Over one summer, he goes through puberty, turns into a hunk ("from AS IF...to ALL THAT!"), and the girls spend an episode fighting over him before realizing they'd still rather just be friends with him.
* OutOfFocus: In the latter half of Season 5 where Tyreke and Jordan are featured more prominently. This is justified as Marques Houston was part of development for a new show (which never got picked up), but he also took time off because of his mother being diagnosed with cancer. After Season 5, Roger isn't seen or mentioned again until the series finale.
* PhraseCatcher: "Go home, Roger!"
* PromotedToOpeningTitles: Added to the main cast in Season 2.

!Tyreke Scott
--> '''Played by''' [=RonReaco=] Lee

* LoveInterest: He and Tia end up together.
* NiceGuy: Despite his troubled past, he is shown to be nice and mature for the most part.
* PromotedToOpeningTitles: Added to the main cast in Season 6.
* TragicDropout: Introduced as a high school drop-out, but eventually goes BackToSchool to graduate and attend college.
* TroubledButCute: A mechanic drop-out who was arrested in the past, but also handsome and sweet-natured.

! Jordan Bennett
--> '''Played by''' Creator/DeonRichmond

* BelligerentSexualTension: With Tamera. They initially get into fights before admitting they like each other.
* BlackAndNerdy: Not as much as Roger, but still geeky and goofy, and the captain of his debate in high school.
* LoveInterest: He and Tamera end up together.
* PromotedToOpeningTitles: Added to the main cast in Season 6.
* StrawMisogynist: He has some sexist tendencies, which causes arguments with Tamera.
* TookALevelInKindness: Once he and Tamera become a couple, he becomes less of a jerk.
