13
14	The main character of the show and AudienceSurrogate, Stephanie is initially new to [=LazyTown=] and decides to help her new friends become and stay active. She loves to dance, sing, and have fun, but is scared of heights. In the original plays she was an aspiring dancer with weak and stiff joints, who became stronger with Sportacus's help.
15	----
16	* AgeLift: The original book mentions that Stephanie is 12 years old but she is aged down to 8 in the TV series.
17	* AscendedExtra: Downplayed; Stephanie was always present in the original plays and usually played some part in the plot, but she was never the main focus. Here she's the main character and the [[AudienceSurrogate audience surrogate]].
18	* BlitheSpirit: A girl visiting her uncle inspired athleticism and ambition in a town full of lazy people and eventually had her ideals and her presence embraced by nearly everyone.
19	* BreakingTheFourthWall: Does this during Season 3's mid-song dance breaks, [[AudienceParticipation addressing the viewer to perform a dance along with her]].
20	* {{Catchphrase}}: "There's always a way!"
21	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In the first stage show, "Stephanie Splitz" is portrayed as being clumsy, awkward, and forgetful, which sticks with her even as she grows more confident and athletic. These traits aren't ever apparent in the TV series. Also in the original stage show her style was completely different rather than the pink hair and pink wardrobe that everyone's now familiar with. The second stage show introduces Stephanie's love for pink and her personality is closer to how she is portrayed on the TV series.
22	* CharacterExaggeration: Although Stephanie has always been a happy-go-lucky CheerfulChild, the earlier seasons tried to remedy this by giving her NaiveEverygirl and DeadpanSnarker moments and showing that she could be just as flawed as everyone else. After the show was revived for its third season, Stephanie's perkiness was taken to the point where there's seldom a moment where she's not incredibly bubbly, and most of her flaws disappeared.
23	* CheerfulChild: A young girl with a constant smile on her face.
24	* CuteLittleFangs: She had these back when she was played by Julianna Rose Mauriello.
25	* DeadpanSnarker: While Stephanie is undoubtedly sweet, she had more of a sarcastic streak in the earlier episodes. This trait has all but vanished from her character in later episodes, particularly by Season 3.
26	* GenkiGirl: Stephanie is energetic and happy a lot of the time, and many of her songs are about getting up and moving.
27	* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Stephanie is adorned in pink and is easily one of the sweetest characters. That said, she also loves physical activity and is probably the bravest and most proactive cast member, with Sportacus as her only equal.
28	* MeaningfulName: She's the only one in town who doesn't have one, though proposed names for her were "Stiffany" and "Tiffany" as a play on her original name having to do with stiff joints.
29	* NaiveEverygirl: Stephanie had no idea the people in [=LazyTown=] were so listless or that the town itself was so rundown. Both she and the town get better over time.
30	* NiceGirl: She is friendly to everyone, even [[VillainProtagonist Robbie]].
31	* NotAllowedToGrowUp: She's perpetually young and cheerful even though Ziggy celebrates two birthdays over the course of the series.
32	* OddNameOut: She's the only child character on the show whose name has more than two syllables, and 5-6 letters
33	* OnlySaneWoman: Despite being only eight years old, Stephanie is arguably the most level-headed person in town. It helps that she's [[WiseBeyondHerYears wise beyond her years]].
34	* OutdoorsyGal: She kicks off the plot by searching for someone to play outside with.
35	* PassionateSportsGirl: While active in general, Stephanie seems to have a preference for baseball.
36	* PinkGirlBlueBoy: With Sportacus.
37	* PinkMeansFeminine: She has pink hair, wears a pink headband, and all her clothes are pink.
38	* PluckyGirl: Optimistic and active young girl.
39	* PunnyName: Stephanie Meanswell, like her uncle.
40	* RoseHairedSweetie: Has pink hair and is mostly nice.
41	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: In the original books she was the only female child.
42	* TeamMom: She's one of the smartest residents, cares for the other kids, and often sees through Robbie's schemes and is always eager to help others.
43	* TokenHuman: Stephanie is the only human child, and the only female human, even though her uncle and every other townsperson is a puppet.
44	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The latter to Trixie, due to her preference for pink and dresses.
45	* VocalEvolution: Due to her actor growing older Stephanie's voice became deeper and more relaxed in Season 2 and Lazytown Extra. Compared to her Season 1 voice which was much more high pitched and energetic.
46	* WiseBeyondHerYears: She's not even a teenager when she's introduced, but she's already able to travel on her own by train and she understands the value of athleticism and moderating sweets.

51	[[caption-width-right:300:Left - original Sportacus (Magnús Scheving). Right - current Sportacus (Dyri Kristjansson).]]
52	->'''Played By:''' Magnús Scheving (Seasons 1-4) / Dyri Kristjansson (Live performances since January 2014)
53
54	Sportacus is the Number 10 superhero of [=LazyTown=], and always appears to save the day when someone's in trouble. Full of energy and always active, Sportacus never does things halfway and encourages the townspeople to be active--but always remembers to make it fun. In the original plays he had much the same role, albeit more mischievous and stern, and his reach extended beyond [=LazyTown=].
55	----
56	* TheAce: With his apparent omnipotence in all physical forms of activity (and other abilities such as shuffling cards when selecting a super move), it's hard not to know why.
57	* AdvertisedExtra: Sportacus is usually shown in the front and center of any promotional material, but Stephanie is the main focus with many episodes past the earlier Season 1 episodes putting Sportacus OutOfFocus only having him show up in the end to save everybody.
58	* AmbiguouslyHuman: He is faster and more agile than any of the human characters and can pull off stunts that most people could only dream of. He also [[OurElvesAreDifferent keeps his ears conspicuously hidden under his hat at all times]]. In the original plays and the Icelandic dub of the TV show, Sportacus is a "Sports Elf," and Robbie refers to him as such in one instance.
59	* BadassInDistress: Some of Robbie's schemes result in Sportacus being incapacitated in some way. "Defeeted" and "Sports Day" being a couple of shining examples.
60	* BlitheSpirit: Alongside Stephanie, Sportacus inspires the previously lethargic inhabitants of [=LazyTown=] to become more active and exercise more.
61	* BlueIsHeroic: His outfit is mostly blue, and he's the official defender of [=LazyTown=] and its people.
62	* {{Catchphrase}}: "Someone's in trouble!"
63	* ChestInsignia: Sportacus's "10".
64	* ChronicHeroSyndrome: No matter what he's doing, you can bet he'll always place his own interests aside to come to someone else's aid, regardless of whether his crystal beeps or not, or if it disadvantages him in the process. Robbie had taken note of this factor, and used used it to lore Sportacus into a trap numerous times.
65	* CoolTeacher: Despite not actually teaching at any school Sportacus serves as this to the kids.
66	* DemotedToExtra: He is not as prominently featured in the final season compared to the first.
67	* DynamicAkimbo: When he actually stops moving for a short while (which isn't that often), he likes taking this pose.
68	* FightOffTheKryptonite: In "Purple Panther, Part 2" he's able to awaken after a sugar meltdown and get an apple himself, though it takes quite a bit of effort and he's barely conscious.
69	* FitnessNut: Sportacus spends every day and all day exercising; and he doesn't know how to do pretty much anything else.
70	* HeroDoesPublicService: When not actually saving folks from Robbie Rotten's schemes or helping people in danger, he tends to be a do-gooder about town.
71	* HyperspaceArsenal: His backpack can transform into a gyrocopter and contains far more bats, rackets, balls and other sports equipment than should be able to fit into it.
72	* InnocentBlueEyes: He has very blue eyes, and a very optimistic and almost childlike enthusiasm for being active.
73	* InvincibleHero: Subverted. Sportacus is very capable and rarely fails on his own, but in keeping with the show's promotion of friendship and teamwork, he often needs the help of Stephanie and the other children to foil Robbie's latest scheme.
74	* KryptoniteFactor: Eating any refined sugar renders him immediately comatose, and fresh fruit is required to restore him.
75	* LightningBruiser: Sportacus is very fast and very strong, though since the show is aimed at pre-teens he never actually engages in violence barring some very slapstick-style fights played for laughs in the "Pirate" and "Knight" episodes.
76	* ManChild: While he's clearly a full-grown adult, he sure doesn't have the demeanor of one, as he has a constant sense of playfulness and optimism, along with constantly showing off with his super-athletic skills. Plus he tends to be OneOfTheKids most of the time, when hanging out with Stephanie and the others.
77	* MrFanservice: Scheving is a very fit and handsome man and even in the Sportacus costume and comedy moustache still looks good. Dyri is also a pretty handsome chap in a different way and is also extremely fit, continuing this trope.
78	* MultipleChoicePast: DependingOnTheWriter (or official material, in the case) - Sportacus [[PassingTheTorch became Number Ten when Number Nine retired]] or was enslaved in a mine and got his number in a case of YouAreNumberSix (and led a slave rebellion against the mine's owner and escaped in an airship he built)
79	* MundaneMadeAwesome: No matter the task at hand, Sportacus will make sure he does it involving at least a few backflips, twirls, and heroic poses. Even ''walking down the street'' is showy.
80	* NiceGuy: He always helps those who need it and is generally very friendly to citizens of [=LazyTown=]. He even helps Robbie sometimes.
81	* NoNameGiven: In the plays he went by Íþróttaálfurinn, literally translating to "the sports elf."
82	%%OneOfTheKids:
83	* OnlyOneName: Like most superheroes, Sportacus goes by a mononym.
84	* OutOfFocus: Sportacus was the show's {{Deuteragonist}} in Season 1, being very prominent in the episodes conflicts almost as much as Stephanie and was the main focus of many of Robbie Rotten's schemes to make him leave town forever. Over time, his screen time decreased to the point where by Season 3 he was reserved to being a walking DeusExMachina to come in towards the end of a story to set things right.
85	* OurElvesAreDifferent: Though it's usually not mentioned in the show, in the original [=LazyTown=] plays, Sportacus is a "sports elf" and [[https://youtu.be/bP5FEQg7-dk?t=14m10s even sings about how elves are always energetic]].
86	* PerpetualSmiler: He's almost never seen without a smile or a grin on his face, because he's really that cheerful and free-spirited.
87	* PinkGirlBlueBoy: With Stephanie, though in his case it should be "Pink Girl, Blue ''Man''".
88	* [[PluckyGirl Plucky Guy]]: Both a RareMaleExample and a rare adult one too. Sportacus is unrelentingly optimistic despite the constant schemes of Robbie Rotten and his status as the sole protector of [=LazyTown=].
89	* SaveTheVillain: In the episode "Lazy Scouts", Robbie Rotten gets caught in a storm and Sportacus declares "I have to save him!" Stingy lampshades it when he asks, "What? Why?" before Sportacus goes to the rescue.
90	* SelfDeprecation: When he first meets Stephanie she asks him "Are you a superhero?" and he describes himself as a "slightly above-average hero."
91	* SuperStrength: Sportacus rarely uses it, but he's superhumanly strong -- in the season four episode "Mystery of the Pyramid" he lifts the entire pyramid several feet off the ground to dislodge a boulder blocking the door, using nothing more than a rope and grapnel.
92	* ThinChinOfSin: Sportacus has an extended chin aided by prosthetics. While the chin isn't as pointy as other examples on this entry and is made to look realistic, it is still very long and sharp. And he’s the hero.
93	* TookALevelInKindness: Compared to his Latibær counterpart. Sportacus has always been on the side of good, but he was sterner and more prone to prankish behavior in the original plays.
94	* {{Troll}}: Sometimes Sportacus will mess around with Robbie or the kids, like in "Sportacus Who" when he reminds Robbie of his promise to not save anyone when Robbie needs help or in "The Lazy Cup" when he pretends to have lost the soccer game.
95	* UnnecessaryCombatRoll: Sportacus gets around 80% of the time via backflips, handsprings, and other showy moves. His zeppelin is even designed around this, with his acrobatic moves activating panels throughout the ship.
96	* WeaksauceWeakness: He is crippled by eating chocolate or refined sugar, but can regain power by eating healthy foods.

101	->'''Played By:''' Stefán Karl Stefánsson
102
103	The local villain of [=LazyTown=] and self-proclaimed master of disguise, Robbie Rotten is the meanest and allegedly laziest person in town. He schemes to make everyone in town as lazy as he is, going to extreme lengths to do so. While his plans are always foiled, like any good villain, Robbie never stops trying. In the original plays, he was a more sinister character and a feared criminal, with similar goals but more malicious and deceitful means of achieving them.
104	----
105	* AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the original plays, when he was known as Glanni Glæpur, he ''very clearly'' meant malice towards the inhabitants of [=LazyTown=] and was a renowned criminal. Here, he wants the inhabitants to be lazy, but he also [[ButNotTooEvil rarely means to hurt them]]. Stefan has stated that Robbie Rotten [[IJustWantToHaveFriends just wants to be their friend]] deep down, though [[FriendlyEnemy he's usually on good terms with the protagonists]] anyway.
106	* AdaptationalVillainy: Besides his original incarnation as Glanni Glaepur, ''[=LazyTown=]'' stage plays tend to make him more of a malicious threat than he is in the show.
107	** A 2014 [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_wukztvr8E play]] called [=Ævintýri í Latabæ=] has him take over [=LazyTown=] by force with an army of robots and a ''giant'' robot dog at his command.
108	** A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcWFhmAXvcQ live UK show]] had him capture Sportacus and replace him as a fake, with an ImpliedDeathThreat attached since Sportacus is chained up with CementShoes.
109	* AlliterativeName: '''R'''obbie '''R'''otten. Also his Icelandic name, '''G'''lanni '''G'''læpur.
110	* AllThereInTheManual: Early concepts of ''[=LazyTown=]'' gave him a backstory where he was a talented chess player and drama student, which explains how he's a LargeHam and the town's sole MasterOfDisguise, and his mother is a compulsive gambler while his father is a prominent politician. Another scrapped backstory had him bully Sportacus when they were kids.
111	* AmbiguouslyGay: He’s effeminate, wears makeup and even disguises in drag several times to further his schemes. Despite claiming to hate Sportacus and wanting him to leave the town, Robbie sure spends a lot of time talking about him, touching him and jumping into his arms whenever the slightly-above-average hero shows up.
112	** A ''very'' minor example, but Robbie makes an [[ItMakesSenseInContext imaginary friend and a romantic partner in a fly]] in "First Day Of Summer" and it’s unknown as to wherever the fly is male or female.
113	* AntiRoleModel: Robbie Rotten wants the children of the town to be lazy and in bad shape, supposedly like himself. Ironically [[ZanyScheme his crazy schemes show]] he's neither [[LaboriousLaziness lazy]] nor in bad shape.
114	* BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad: DependingOnTheWriter. In some episodes, Robbie seems to genuinely believe that his bad views on health and exercise are the right path to live, which makes him a sort of AntiVillain. In others, however, he clearly knows he is advocating detrimental ways and explicitly does it to mess with the other characters out of spite and wanting everyone else to be brought down to his level.
115	* BigBad: Of the entire show, but due to the kid-friendly nature his schemes are often zany and childish, and always revolve around getting people to be lazy.
116	* BookDumb: A strange subversion. Robbie is an EvilGenius without a doubt, as he's able to build machines that would have engineers scratching their heads (like a microwave that can make inventions for you and even ''a time machine''), and his varied disguises and antics show he's obviously a very knowledgeable individual despite all their goofiness. However, for some reason, he struggles with simple arithmetic and reading.
117	* BreakoutCharacter: Robbie's song "We Are Number One" became an Internet sensation in the latter half of 2016, and Robbie's been embraced by the Internet as a favorite meme.
118	* BrilliantButLazy: Robbie epitomizes this trope, even if he unintentionally subverts it at the same time. He prides himself in being a lazy slob, and even schemes to make the rest of the town as lazy as he claims to be, yet he is easily the most brilliant person in the entire town and is able to create ''anything'' out of ''anything''. Ironically, and for all his pretended laziness, Robbie's constant attempts to make [=LazyTown=] live up to its name via elaborate traps, machines, and costumes make him easily one of its ''most'' active residents, not the opposite.
119	* CardCarryingVillain: The name "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Robbie Rotten]]" pretty much says it all. There's also "[[VillainSong We Are Number One]]" where he teaches his clones how to be villains.
120	* {{Catchphrase}}:
121	** "I meant to do that!"
122	** "It's disguise time!"
123	** "'''''FOREVER!!!'''''[[note]]EVER... EVER... EVER...[[/note]]"
124	** "Whatever."
125	* TheChewToy: Sometimes he fails due to sheer bad luck.
126	* CloudCuckoolander: He actually manages to be more over-the-top and weird than the muppet-like kids in [=LazyTown=].
127	* CommonalityConnection: Part of the reason he's so good at manipulating the kids, as well as getting along with them on occasion, is that he shares their vices--Trixie's mischief, Stingy's greed, Pixel's laziness, and Ziggy's love of sweets.
128	* CreepyCrossdresser: He's cross-dressed several times to further a scheme, like as a birthday fairy, a fortune teller, and a manners teacher.
129	* DastardlyWhiplash: Lacks the mustache and top hat, but otherwise features the crooked mannerisms, fancy suit and petty meanness associated with the character.
130	* {{Determinator}}: No matter how many times his plans fail, Robbie refuses to give up on his goal to get rid of Sportacus and make [=LazyTown=] live up to its name.
131	* DiabolicalMastermind: His original incarnation, Glanni Glæpur, organized a gang of thieves and crooks from [=MayhemTown=] to cause havoc.
132	* DirtyCoward: His original incarnation, Glanni Glæpur, did most of his villainy when Íþróttaálfurinn wasn't around, and when his plans unraveled he ran for his life.
133	* DistressedDude: Robbie tends to get himself in trouble that he needs to be saved from, usually by Sportacus.
134	* EvenEvilHasStandards: He at least has the decency to bring Ziggy cookies to his birthday party, and is almost disgusted by Stingy not bringing anything.
135	* EvilIsHammy: Most of the show's humor comes from his over-the-top antics, despite him being a villain. Stefan could really act.
136	* EvilIsPetty: In "The Greatest Gift," after attending Ziggy's birthday party and making an effort to be nice, he steals back the gift he gave Ziggy at the end of the episode and mocks everyone's ImaginationBasedSuperpower.
137	* EvilLaugh: He is certainly capable of one, heard most clearly in songs like "You Are a Pirate".
138	* EvilSoundsDeep: Has the deepest voice of all the ''[=LazyTown=]'' characters, and is a villain.
139	* {{Foil}}: To Sportacus; Robbie is a scheming, (supposedly) lazy villain who likes eating sugary foods such as cake and wants to make the town lazy so he can get some sleep. Sportacus is physically active, always willing to help others, and thrives on only healthy foods.
140	* FriendlyEnemy: Even though he's the show's main villain, some episodes show the other characters see him as a friend, and deep down, the feeling is mutual. He's especially close with Ziggy due to their shared love of sweets, which makes moments where he's nasty to him a case of KickTheDog.
141	* GadgeteerGenius: The things he makes are pretty impressive for someone who prides himself on being lazy.
142	* {{Gasshole}}: Going hand-in-hand with EvilSmellsBad, Glanni Glæpur had ridiculously poor hygiene and frequently burped/growled as an intimidation tactic, which smelled so bad flowers died. He also [[PottyFailure had an accident]] that smelled worse than the sewer he forced Trixie and Stephanie into.
143	* GeniusBruiser: Downplayed, but still notable. Despite his pretensions to be the supreme emissary of laziness, Robbie is evidently very physically fit, and in some instances he proves to be almost as athletic as Sportacus himself (albeit not as spectacularly so).
144	* {{Glamour}}: While not explicitly stated, it's implied this is how his disguises work. With one exception in "Defeeted," his disguises are always treated as whoever or whatever it is until they're removed, no matter how obvious it is to the audience. This is especially prevalent when Robbie disguises himself as another character and they're flabbergasted at seeing themselves running around causing trouble.
145	* GoKartingWithBowser: In some episodes the cast invites him to play and have fun, and on ''very'' rare occasions he accepts, though usually with a scheme in mind.
146	* GoMadFromTheIsolation: "The First Day of Summer" has him crack when everyone disappears for less than a day, and even after the townspeople return he's still unhinged.
147	* HarmlessVillain: His entire goal is to make people be lazy, and most of his schemes are zany, childish, and ill thought-out.
148	* HiddenDepths: The actor for Robbie Rotten (Stefen Karl) did a Reddit AMA in 2016. One of the questions was "Deep down, what does Robbie '''really''' think of the citizens of [=LazyTown=]?" His response was [[IJustWantToHaveFriends "I wish I could be their friend".]]
149	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: A lot of his schemes end up backfiring and endangering him in some way, especially when he tries to infiltrate Sportacus's airship.
150	* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: His plans almost never work as intended, and any short-term victories like trapping Sportacus or becoming mayor never last.
151	* InexplicablyAwesome: How his disguises, teleportation, and other inventions work is an exercise for the viewer. Some episodes hint that it's magic while others science, and still others [[{{Magitek}} both.]] And that's not even getting into his phone that can order ''anything''.
152	* InformedFlaw: Every time he is described as a lazy character or he claims himself to be. In the actual show, his level of activity easily rivals Sportacus due to the [[LaboriousLaziness sheer amount of effort put into his schemes]].
153	* {{Irony}}: He likes being lazy and prides himself in it, and wants others to be the same, but due to his elaborate schemes he is actually one of the least lazy characters in the town and is almost as athletic as Sportacus.
154	* LaboriousLaziness: He prides himself on being lazy, and schemes to make the rest of the town as lazy as he is, but these very schemes make him more active than any other resident, sometimes including Sportacus. He can even pull Sportacus-level stunts if the situation calls for it.
155	* LanternJawOfJustice: Subverted; he has an impressive jawline, but he's the BigBad of the series.
156	* LargeHam: Robbie's over-the-top body language and ''especially'' facial expressions are as close as humanity will ever get to a living, breathing cartoon character. There's a reason Stefán Karl Stefánsson was called "the Icelandic Creator/JimCarrey".
157	* LaughablyEvil: He's the show's BigBad, but his antics and dialogue are ''hilarious''.
158	* LeanAndMean: He's taller and skinnier than the very fit Sportacus, and he's also the show's BigBad whose entire MO is making the townspeople lazy and getting rid of Sportacus.
159	* LighterAndSofter: He's a sillier character than his stage play counterpart, Glanni Glæpur. While Robbie is a more melodramatic, mustache-twirling villain, Glanni is a full-blown criminal that lies, steals, and deceives with relative ease. Compare [[https://youtu.be/wvEFo_EVrq4 Glanni's]] rendition of "Master of Disguise" to [[https://youtu.be/ngk3Urrpa8k Robbie's]] and you'll see the ''drastic'' difference in tone.
160	* MadeOfIron: It's not obvious since ''Lazy Town'' runs on toon physics most of time, but Robbie can take a lot of punishment. In "Robbie's Dream Team", he was hit with a cannon ball that had enough force to ''blow him across town'', and after the protagonists caught him he was mostly unscathed.
161	* MadScientist: Several of his inventions and tools in his lair invoke this trope, and he can make anything out of anything.
162	* MaliciousMisnaming: Robbie rarely calls people by their actual names, instead opting for insulting nicknames such as "Stinky" for Stingy or "Pixie" for Stephanie. He uses a different name for Sportacus almost every episode, including Sportaclown, Sportaflop, Sportakook, Sportaflip, Sportaflippettyflop, and so on.
163	* ManChild: Robbie's got a very childish demeanor, considering his unhealthy eating habits, constant scheming against [=LazyTown=] and petty moments with the cast.
164	* ManOfWealthAndTaste: Robbie's disguised himself as one a few times, and Glanni Glæpur's Rikki Riki disguise has the entire town fooled into thinking he's a respectable, rich gentleman.
165	* MasterOfDisguise: He has dozens of different disguises on hand, and even has a song about it.
166	* MrFanservice: Stefan Karl when not wearing the exaggerated prosthetics was a ruggedly handsome man, and Robbie's outfits are all skin-tight.
167	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast:
168	** "Robbie Rotten" sounds like a really evil name, doesn't it?
169	** The character's name in Icelandic, Glanni Glæpur, also counts. "Glæpur" literally means "Crime" while "Glanni" is a term for a reckless or destructive person.
170	* NiceJobFixingItVillain: In "The Laziest Town", [=LazyTown=] must stay active all day to raise the energy meter to 100 in order to keep from being the laziest town on Earth before 5PM. Robbie believes that if [=LazyTown=] gets this title, Sportacus will leave [=LazyTown=] for good out of embarrassment. At literally the last second, when Sportacus finally loses all his energy and can no longer do tricks to have the meter rise to 100, Robbie becomes overjoyed and does a victory dance that ends up being active enough to raise the bar instantly to 100, saving [=LazyTown=]. The Mayor, Stephanie, and the rest of the cast gather to congratulate and thank Robbie, who's [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone overcome with regret]] and [[BigNo runs back to his lair.]] If Robbie had not moved at the last second, he likely would've got his wish and [=LazyTown=] would've indeed been the laziest town.
171	* NoSocialSkills: Robbie has no idea how to act around people without being evil to them, and usually becomes incredibly awkward when actually forced to do it.
172	* NotSoHarmlessVillain: While he's usually a pretty inept villain, a handful of episodes showcase that Robbie and creations can be genuinely threatening when the time calls for it
173	** "Records Day" has an unusually malicious moment for Robbie, where in an attempt to get the World's Laziest Person world record he resorts to attempting to murder Sportacus via a soccer ball catapult.
174	** "Sportacus Who" has Robbie take advantage of Sportacus' pride by setting up an athletic course with a memory-wiping device near the end, which takes away Sportacus' memories of being the town protector and allows Robbie to nearly make Sportacus as lazy as him and nearly leave town.
175	** "Little Sportacus" has Robbie create a device that de-ages Sportacus, turning him into a little boy with the intention of raising him to be lazy and eat junk food, so he'd never grow up to be a hero. He even had a self-destruct mechanism that would destroy his machine and nearly leaves Sportacus stuck as a kid forever.
176	* PaperThinDisguise: Most of his disguises are easy for the audience to spot, but he fools the town 99% of the time.
177	* {{Schemer}}: He's constantly coming up with plans to either get rid of Sportacus, make the town lazy, or both.
178	* SecurityCling: He jumps into Sportacus's arms after he hears a twig snap in the episode "Hero for a Day".
179	* SharpDressedMan: Is never seen without his fancy suit on (except when disguised, of course).
180	* SillyWalk: His default walking pose is to swing his arms from side to side in an overdramatic fashion, even if it's only a few steps.
181	* SissyVillain: Tends to act rather flamboyant and isn't above crossdressing. Glanni Glæpur, his original version, wore a pink coat, hat, and cane as his disguise and immediately tried to run when his plans were foiled.
182	* {{Sleepyhead}}: Robbie has a habit of falling asleep a lot during the middle of the day fitting his lazy status. He particularly likes to take his naps on a bench in the park, but is usually disturbed by the kids playing. In the episode, "School Scam," Robbie impersonates as a teacher and the RunningGag of the episode is him telling the kids to close their books and go to sleep.
183	* TheSociopath: Not the [[HarmlessVillain TV version]], but the [[DarkerAndEdgier stage play version]], Glanni Glæpur. In his own VillainSong, he does everything short of admitting he's a sociopath (what with using superficial charm to get his way and being a ConsummateLiar).
184	* SupervillainLair: He lives in an elaborate underground compound beneath [=LazyTown=], where he can spy on the inhabitants.
185	* TakeOverTheCity: Robbie has no interest in meddling in affairs anywhere beyond [=LazyTown=]. He even manages to install himself as mayor on some occasions through trickery, and Glanni Glæpur was legally elected mayor in the original plays.
186	* ThinChinOfSin: Has a comically sized pointy chin.
187	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Cake. According to Stefan Karl, "Robbie would eat cake if it had sand in it."
188	* VileVillainSaccharineShow: His original stage play incarnation, Glanni Glaepur, was a sociopathic self proclaimed "master criminal" who was willing to hurt others for his own benefit, even plotting to poison the whole town all while profiting off of the canned goods he sold and even took over as mayor by fooling the citizens with the guise of Ricky Richie. This is in direct contrast with his more well known TV show incarnation, a largely HarmlessVillain who [[LighterAndSofter fits right in with the setting and cast.]]
189	* VillainSong: He's had quite a few over the course of the plays and show, but "Master of Disguise" and the incredibly popular "We Are Number One" are his shining examples.
190	* VillainTeleportation: He can teleport, as seen in the "Master of Disguise" song and the fortune-teller episode, while Sportacus has to get around the old-fashioned way.
191	* VillainsActHeroesReact: The plot of the episodes usually start when Robbie tries a scheme to make everyone lazy or get rid of Sportacus.
192	* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Glanni Glaepur made himself beloved in his Rikki Riki persona, framing Trixie and Stephanie for his crimes while presenting quick fixes to the problems he caused. He gets so popular he's elected mayor and has a song where the entire cast sans Trixie praises him.
193	* WhatTheHellHero: During Ziggy's birthday party, Stingy brings him a present. When it turns out that he brought nothing to the party, Robbie is perplexed by his standards, asserting that [[PetTheDog he at least he had the decency to have brought cookies]].

197	[[folder:Mayor Milford Meanswell]]
198	[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/character_profile_mayor.jpg]]
199	->'''Played By:''' David Matthew Feldman
200
201	The bumbling, lovable Mayor of [=LazyTown=] and Stephanie's uncle. He is nervously hyperactive and rarely competent, especially when Robbie's concerned, but he has a good heart and always wants what's best for the town. In the original plays he was a more serious character, lamenting the state of the townspeople and hoping for someone to help before it was too late.
202	----
203	* AdaptationalComicRelief: He's a sillier character in the show compared to the plays.
204	* AlliterativeName: Milford Meanswell both star with the letter m.
205	* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Has a crush on Ms. Busybody who seems to like him back, although any time they get a chance to physically show affection it results in an AlmostKiss.
206	* AmbiguouslyBrown: Meanswell has a vague tan.
207	* AuthorityInNameOnly: He rarely does any actual mayor-ing, and when he does Robbie is quick to exploit it in some manner.
208	* CannotKeepASecret: Straight-up tells Sportacus about his secret surprise party... many times.
209	* CharacterTics: Straightening his suit jacket over and over, enough to where Robbie imitates this when pretending to be him in "Double Trouble".
210	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He seems zoned-out regularly.
211	* DrowningMySorrows: Does this with hot cocoa in "Secret Agent Zero".
212	* FamilyMan: Loves his niece very much.
213	* FormerlyFit: In "Rockin' Robbie", we see him as a rail-thin teenager.
214	* FriendToAllChildren: Especially in [=LazyTown=] Extra, in which he spends quite a bit of time with Stingy.
215	* HairTodayGoneTomorrow: One episode depicted him in the past with a fuller head of hair than he does now.
216	* HenpeckedHusband: Not a husband, but frequently is asked by Ms. Busybody to do a few "teensy-weensy" favors for her -- coming from a list about 20 feet long.
217	* HiddenDepths: "Dancing Dreams" shows Milford's actually a competent pilot, and a couple episodes have him be good at soccer. In addition, when Stingy asks for his favorite sport, not only does Milford have one, it's ''tennis.''
218	* HopelessWithTech: The whole episode "Lazytown Goes Digital" occurs because he cannot understand how to receive a "b-mail" from Ms. Busybody.
219	* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Trusts each and every fake persona Robbie Rotten comes up with in order to swindle him.
220	* TheKlutz: Doesn't even know which side of the hammer to use to hammer a nail. Frequently seen with fingers covered in bandages from trying to do chores for Ms. Busybody.
221	* LethalChef: In the earlier seasons.
222	* MeaningfulName: He may be not right in the head, but he always means well. Also a PunnyName.
223	* MrExposition: Many episodes' plots are kicked off by him reading a story to the kids or general [=LazyTown=] facts, [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom which usually inspires Robbie's scheme of the week]].
224	* NervousWreck: He's perpetually nervous almost all the time, especially when something important's happening.
225	* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Downplayed. Robbie sometimes makes him enforce [=LazyTown=] laws that make life difficult for Sportacus, such as there only being one superhero allowed in "Roboticus," though he didn't technically create them and is happy to find loopholes where available.
226	* OfficeRomance: The mayor has romantic feelings for his secretary.
227	* ParentalSubstitute: He is this to all the kids to an extent, but mostly Stephanie and Stingy.
228	* PermanentElectedOfficial: There's no other adult in Lazytown who wants to be mayor, so he's stuck with the job for life.
229	* PunnyName: His name reflects that he ''means well''.
230	* RealMenWearPink: He enjoys knitting.
231	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He may be a bit out of it, but he usually [[PunnyName means well]].
232	* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In the plays he wasn't related to anyone in the cast, while in the show he's Stephanie's uncle.
233	* SharpDressedMan: Is almost never seen outside his yellow suit.
234	* ShipTease: With Ms. Busybody.
235	* ShoePhone: His shoe doubles as a phone in ''Secret Agent Zero''.
236	* TextileWorkIsFeminine: Subverted; he is shown knitting a few times and talks to his knitted creations.
237	* UltimateAuthorityMayor: As the only elected official in the entire area, he's this by default. Unlike most examples of this trope, though, Milford is a cheerful, friendly sort who's doing his best to run the town as best he can.
238	* VerbalTic: "Oh my!"

241	[[folder:Ms. Bessie Busybody]]
242	[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/character_profile_bessie.jpg]]
243	->'''Played By:''' Julie Westwood
244
245	The town gossip and the Mayor's maybe-girlfriend, Bessie Busybody loves to chat but isn't fond of sports. She is often seen relaxing or talking on the phone, and loves to bake cakes and other treats. In the original plays she was more of a curmudgeon and had a bad smoking habit.
246	----
247	* AlliterativeName: '''B'''essie '''B'''usy'''b'''ody.
248	* BeehiveHairdo: Her hair is weaved into a beehive.
249	* TheBore: The children all find Ms. Busybody's advice, speeches, and anecdotes about her life to be quite boring.
250	* CucumberFacial: Seen reclining in a lawn chair with one of these in many episodes.
251	* DramaQueen: She has a tendency to overreact and panic at the slightest provocation.
252	* TheFashionista: Complained about having nothing to wear for a fitness contest.
253	* FeminineWomenCanCook: Cooks cakes and sweets for the patrons of [=LazyTown=] on a regular basis.
254	* GossipyHens: Though we are never quite sure who she is talking to.
255	* GracefulInTheirElement: To the point where she says herself she doesn't feel she's good at anything but answering phones. This is [[ExploitedTrope exploited]] in "The Laziest Town"--the kids realize that since Bessie is so good at picking up phones, having her run from payphone to payphone in town is the only way to get her to contribute to raising the town's energy meter.
256	* HiddenDepths: "The First Day of Summer" reveals she was a champion volleyball player in her youth. One ''Lazytown Extra'' segment has Mayor Meanswell mention she's a skilled chess player, and in "Secret Agent Zero," she busts out some ''seriously'' soulful notes in the song "Secret Agent Man."
257	* InnocentlyInsensitive: Unlike Robbie, who does MaliciousMisnaming just to be mean, she often accidentally insults the kids by getting their names wrong.
258	* LazyBum: She might be the ''actual'' laziest person in town, as many of her appearances have her lounging outside getting a beauty treatment while Milford fetches her things.
259	* MeaningfulName: A busybody is a term for someone who butts in on other people's business, gossips, and is generally overbearing, though not malicious--all of which describes Bessie perfectly.
260	* OfficeRomance: She shares a romance with her boss, Mayor Meanswell.
261	* OnlySaneWoman: She is a voice of reason to the town and to her husband, [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Mayor Meanswell]].
262	* SassySecretary: One of her many jobs is Meanswell's secretary, and she has the sass and occasional sarcasm to match.
263	* ShipTease: With Mayor Meanswell.
264	* TeamMom: She's seen baking for the kids and telling them stories on a daily basis, and they all look up to her. It rather comes with the territory, as she's the only adult female in the show, giving her the "mom" role by default.
265	* WhyDoYouKeepChangingJobs: Since the Mayor is busy "mayoring" in most episodes, Bessie often ends up filling whatever adult role might be needed for any given plot. Her main job is being Milford's secretary, but she's also the town's schoolteacher, storyteller, chef, and chief gossip, in addition to hosting events and serving as a judge for contests.
266	* TheWorkaholic: [[ZigzaggedTrope Zigzagged]]--while she's rarely ever off her phone, she's usually gossiping instead of doing actual work.
267	* WomenPreferStrongMen: Gushed over Mayor Meanswell when he said he would be "pumping iron."

270	[[folder:Ziggy Zweet]]

272	->'''Played By:''' Gudmundur Thor Karason (US) / Lorraine Parsloe (UK)
273	A candy-loving young boy and Sportacus's biggest fan. Ziggy loves sweets of all kinds, but with Sportacus's help he learns to moderate his snacking and stay active. In the original plays he was even more focused on candy and didn't hero-worship Sportacus.
274	----
275	* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: He's easily distracted by things, especially candy.
276	* BigEater: He loves eating candy.
277	* CaptainErsatz: His regular outfit is reminiscent of ComicBook/{{Superman}}, and the first play had it outright be a Superman costume.
278	* CatchPhrase: "Robbie Rotten! Oh, that guy!" (Seasons 2-4)
279	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] due to him being a kid ([[TheBabyOfTheBunch the youngest of his friends]] for that matter).
280	* TheDitz: When he and Stephanie were looking for help when Sportacus was in trouble he suggested asking Sportacus for help -- when the man in question was lying unconscious two feet away.
281	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Has blonde hair, and is one of the youngest and kindest of [=LazyTown=]'s children.
282	* HeroWorship: Of Sportacus. Why else does he follow him around all the time.
283	* {{Keet}}: An adorable, energetic CheerfulChild who loves sweets and admires Sportacus.
284	* KidAppealCharacter: A CheerfulChild who has a ginormous SweetTooth and dresses himself as a superhero like any other normal kid.
285	* LovableCoward: Tends to be the first to panic whenever anything mildly frightening is bought up.
286	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Ziggy looks much cartoonier than any of the other Lazytown puppets. Whereas they have rather bulgy eyes and more realistic proportions. Ziggy has small, beady eyes and a bigger head than the rest.
287	* PunnyName: His surname is a pun on his SweetTooth.
288	* SweetTooth: His entire character is based on his sweet tooth.
289	* TagalongKid: He usually follows around Stephanie and Sportacus during their antics every episode.
290	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: While he likes eating candy, he's usually seen with a lollipop.
291	* VerbalTic: Tends to end most sentences with a "Huh?".
292	* XtremeKoolLetterz: His surname is spelled "'''Z'''weet" instead of "'''S'''weet".

297	->'''Played By:''' Kobie Powell (US S1-2) / Ronald Binion (US S3-4) / Creator/JoannaRuiz (UK)
298
299	A bright young boy with a passion for technology and screens. Pixel is an amazing inventor and is very good at video games, but Sportacus helps him learn that playing outside can be fun too, and that sometimes it's best to do things by hand. In the original plays he was solely addicted to screens, without any inventor traits.
300	----
301	* BasementDweller: When not having fun outside, he spends a lot of his time indoors inventing things or playing games.
302	* BlackAndNerdy: He's African-American (or African-[[WhereTheHellIsSpringfield wherever Lazy Town is]]), and his main talent lies in technology.
303	* BrilliantButLazy: He's very smart, but he spends most of his time sitting in front of a screen, and most of his inventions were built for the purpose of doing the simplest tasks for him.
304	* ChildProdigy: He's able to casually invent gadgets that most adult engineers would have trouble constructing, even with proper resources.
305	* CrossdressingVoices: His voice is performed by a woman in the UK dub.
306	* GadgeteerGenius: Like Robbie, he's very smart and capable of coming up with his own inventions. [[BrilliantButLazy Most of said inventions were built for the purpose of doing things for him, though]].
307	* HomemadeInventions: All of his inventions were built by his own hand.
308	* MeaningfulName: Pixel. A fitting name for someone who spends his time playing video games and making inventions.
309	* OutOfFocus: Compared to characters like Ziggy and Stingy who had many focus episodes throughout the shows run, Pixel only got a few in the earlier seasons and none in the later ones.
310	* RaceLift: His stage play counterpart was portrayed by a Caucasian actor; here, he's African-American.
311	* TechnoBabble: Whenever he talks about one of his inventions.
312	* TheSmartGuy: The most intelligent of [=LazyTown=]'s children.

318
319	A mischievous prankster with a love for fun, but not much respect for rules. Sportacus helps her stay inside the lines but still find the fun in things. Trixie is especially close with Stephanie. In the original plays she was a bully at first, but became softer over time out of a desire to have friends.
320	----
321
322	* AdaptationalHeroism: Her counterpart in the original plays was a bully, while in the show she's more mischievous.
323	* BestFriend: Episodes like "Dear Diary" and "Who's Who?" have highlighted the especially close bond between Trixie and Stephanie.
324	* DeadpanSnarker: Is one of the more sarcastic characters.
325	* GenderFlip: In the original books the plays were based on she was a boy.
326	* GirlishPigtails: She wears three pigtails; two of them are on both sides of her head. The third one is hidden by her helmet.
327	* MeaningfulName: A mischievous girl named "Trixie". [[BlatantLies Nothing meaningful about that]].
328	* MustacheVandalism: The opening credits show her drawing a mustache on a flyer depicting the mayor.
329	* OutOfFocus: Similar to Pixel, Trixie has very few focus episodes throughout the course of the show, and where she lives is never seen.
330	* ThePrankster: She can be a troublemaker and likes to draw mustaches on Mayor Meanswell's posters.
331	* RaceLift: While she was white in the stage plays, she's depicted as an Asian character here.
332	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The former to Stephanie, due to her puckish sense of humor and her preference for jeans and gender-neutral colors.
333	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She was the only girl in the group until Stephanie arrived.

339	->'''Played By:''' Jodi Eichelberger (US) / Sarah Burgess (UK S1-2) / Julie (UK S3-4)
340
341	A spoiled, selfish boy with a love for money, Stingy thinks most things are his by default. Sportacus helps him to share and have fun with his friends. In the original plays he was initially purely selfish, with his money-loving trait being added in the second play.
342	----
343	* AllTakeAndNoGive: He prefers keeping things to himself rather than giving them.
344	* AntiHero: Sometimes his greed and snootiness puts him at odds with the other children, but deep down he's a nice, well-meaning boy who acts more like a SpoiledBrat than a true villain.
345	* CharacterCatchphrase: "It's mine!"
346	* CharacterSignatureSong: Of course, "The Mine Song", about, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin what else]], the various things he supposedly owns.
347	* CompanionCube: Stingy frequently converses with his piggy bank named [[ADogNamedDog "Piggy"]].
348	* ExhaustedEyeBags: Stingy appears to have these despite having no known sleeping problems.
349	* {{Greed}}: Comes from his namesake nature, Stingy is known for his need to possess objects.
350	* HiddenDepths: In the episode "Secret Agent Zero", Stingy is shown being able to masterfully play the saxophone.
351	* ItsAllAboutMe: He has a self-centered demeanor.
352	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Yeah, he's a spoiled brat, but he's not a super-villain and he always learns his lesson in the end.
353	* MeaningfulName: He's very '''''[[{{Pun}} stingy]]''''' with his stuff. If he sees something lying around, "[[{{Catchphrase}} it's mine]]!"
354	* NeatFreak: Came in handy in "Trash Trouble", when he kickstarts the kids' cleaning of [=LazyTown=].
355	* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: “THAT DOG IS DEFINITELY NOT MINE!!!”
356	* PurelyAestheticGlasses: According to Stingy's puppeteer and voice actor, Jodi Eichelberger, the glasses Stingy occasionally wears from Season 2 onwards are only there to make him look smarter.
357	* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: His obsession with collecting things sometimes gets in the way of his better judgement.
358	%%* TheScrooge
359	* SpoiledBrat: Stingy is so spoiled, he believes that ''everything he sees'' belongs to him. He even has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AX5sIRop-M0 song about it]]:
360	* ThoseTwoGuys: Occasionally shares this role with Ziggy.
361	* TokenEvilTeammate: Not ''evil'', per se, but he's definitely the most flawed of the child characters and most prone to grabbing the JerkassBall.
362	* VocalEvolution: His voice was much higher and whinier sounding earlier on. Starting with Season 2 and carrying on throughout the rest of the show his voice gets much deeper and more nasally (though this might be the result of Jodi Eichelberger having gotten older during the long gap in between the first two seasons and the last two seasons). Compare his voice in [[https://youtu.be/2dTh3iI0is8 "The Mine Song"]] to his voice in [[https://youtu.be/D38k_FjKiEg "The World Goes Round"]]

367	[[folder:Eyrún/Penny]]

369	----
370	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: She only appears in the very first play and nowhere else. Unlike Jives, Officer Obtuse, and the Postman, she didn't even make it to ''Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ'', with her absence being completely unaddressed and unexplained.
371	* GenderFlip: She's a female version of a male character from the books with the same role.
372	[[/folder]]
373
374	[[folder:Maggi/Jives]]
375	A character from the Icelandic plays who was cut from the show, though his house's design cameos on occasion. Jives' problem was being picky about his food, which led to lethargy and malnourishment when he only ate sugary cereal. Afterwards he became much more athletic and happy, acting as a mentor to the other kids.
376	----
377	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He was only in the books and plays, and was dropped for the show.
378	* TeamDad: Along with Stephanie, he's one of the last holdouts against Glanni and encourages everyone to remember their healthy principles.
379	* TotallyRadical: He's fond of saying "yo" a lot and knows how to rap.
380	[[/folder]]
381
382	[[folder:Officer Obtuse]]
383	A character from the Icelandic plays and the local law enforcement of [=LazyTown=]. While effective in the first play, in the second he's not very good at his job and is easily fooled by Glanni's schemes.
384	----
385	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He was dropped when the show transitioned to TV.
386	* MundaneMadeAwesome: Him running and crashing through a door at the end of the second play is done in slow-motion to accentuate it.
387	* PoliceAreUseless: Glanni manipulates him into doing his dirty work, and he arrests Stephanie and Trixie on trumped-up charges.
388	[[/folder]]
389
390	[[folder:The Postman]]
391	A character from the Icelandic plays and [=LazyTown=]'s resident postman. He doesn't appear often, but when he does it's plot-important.
392	----
393	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Does not appear in the TV show. The local mailbox is used to send messages to Sportacus by other characters instead.
394	* LazyBum: In the first play he was too lazy to deliver the mail.
395	* SmallRoleBigImpact: Both times he appears in the original plays, his information proves key to saving the day.
396	[[/folder]]
397
398	[[folder:Haninn the Rooster]]
399	An anthropomorphic, lazy rooster who longs for [=LazyTown=]'s lazy days, though his grumbling is ineffectual compared to Glanni's schemes.

401	* TheCameo: While cut from the show proper, his visage appears on the bow of Robbie's pirate ship and in Mayor Meanswell's papers.
402	[[/folder]]
403
404	[[folder:The Genie]]
405	The Great Genie of Everlasting Eternity. Robbie Rotten freed him from his teapot and received three wishes as a result, though none of them worked out like he planned.
406	----
407	* BigFun: The genie is overweight, and also jovial, energetic, and quite funny.
408	* ExactWords: Robbie wishes for all the sportscandy and sports equipment to disappear, which the Genie agrees to, but since he didn't specify how long it returns almost instantly.
409	* LiteralGenie: See ExactWords. The genie can make fruits, vegetables, and sports equipment disappear, but he can't make them disappear ''forever'' because Robbie didn't say "forever."
410	* LogicalWeakness: For the genie to make things disappear, he has to know what they are, and apparently be within a certain range of them. This is a problem on two occasions: One, Robbie wishes for all sports equipment to disappear, but the genie doesn't know what sports are, so Robbie has to show him. Two, Robbie wishes for Sportacus to disappear, but the genie can't get close enough to do the spell because Sportacus is always on the move.
411	-->'''Genie:''' (panting) Don't you ever stay in one place?
412	* IAmSong: "Greatest Genie", in which he boasts about his wish-granting powers.
413	* NiceGuy: While a little self-centered, and also a LiteralGenie, this genie is still pretty cordial. He cooperates with Robbie despite Robbie's abrasive attitude, and he grants Sportacus a free wish for [[spoiler:saving his genie lamp.]]
414	* OhCrap: For all of Robbie's cruelty towards him, the genie is horrified when [[spoiler:he accidentally casts the "disappear forever" spell on Robbie]].
415	* OhCrapSmile: The genie is ordered to make Sportacus disappear, but soon realizes that Sportacus never stays still long enough for the spell to happen. The genie gives an exasperated smile to the camera when he realizes he'll have to chase Sportacus down.
416	* PunchClockVillain: He's a NiceGuy who only causes trouble because he was released by Robbie and thus must grant his wishes.

420	A world-famous Mediterranean chef who cooks with passion, love, and olive oil. He also enjoys soccer.

423	[[/folder]]
424
425	[[folder:Bobbie, Tobbie, and Flobbie Rotten]]

427	----
428	* BeingEvilSucks: The trio starts feeling this after they and Robbie capture Sportacus.
429	* {{Expy}}: Of Film/TheThreeStooges.
