[[folder:Maria Gonzalez]]

The Feeble family's Portuguese au pair, who dresses like a punk and is a heavy drinker.
----
* TheAlcoholic: Maria is always seen hungover. According to the episode "Tidy", she has been drinking since the age of ''12''. She also only goes to church for the communion wine, and uses booze as perfume. The series finale "Au Pair" has her recovering from this.

* {{Catchphrase}}: "Oh, go, please!"
* ClusterBleepBomb: She sets of a nasty one to Mrs. Perfect in "Bursting" when the latter confronts her for stealing Heather's Marie Antoinette costume for Claire.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Maria is lazy, rude, aggressive, and constantly hungover, but does care deep down. This is shown in "Au Pair" when she finally sobers up and becomes a lot nicer.
* SheCleansUpNicely: In "Au Pair" when she finally cleans up her act.
* TookALevelInKindness: When she sobers up in "Au Pair", Maria is shown to be a sweet young woman who drops Eric's kids off at home when she finds them waiting outside of school after hours.

* VocalDissonance: His voice is quite deep for his age. Maybe he's an early bloomer?
* TheVoiceless: Brian never talks, only grunts or makes other noises.

[[folder:Eric Feeble]]

The well-meaning but long-suffering protagonist of the series.

* {{Catchphrase}}: "Maria! Get a move on!" and "ALISON, WILL YOU SHUT UP?!"
* CosmicPlaything: Sometimes, it seems like the universe is against him.
* CrossPoppingVeins: He gets these throughout the episodes as he gets stressed, and they get to the point where they end up choking him.

* TheyKilledKennyAgain: His vein kills him at the end of almost every episode, but he is shown alive and well in the next episode (as well as he can be, anyway)
